I should try it sometime, but it doesn't sound like the sort of game you play constantly.

I played it today, xfire says i played it for 11 hours... i must admit i was bored in the begin because i didn't really knew what to do and i was wandering around and shit but when you get what to do... it's fun.

Also pretty awesome how a 2 small area's can be used for like 15+ quests...

The amount of dialogues is the reason :p (For me at least)

I do it for the topless women cards >.>

EDIT: Poker is fucking bullshit btw, my opponent gets to roll twice? =/ no wonder they always win doh

EDIT2: Oh i figured out that i could pick the dices i wanted to roll for my second turn when the camera zooms in, they didn't explain that man i lost a lot of money on that fucking dwarf why can't i kill him XD

Wandy, you need a walkthrough, badly =P

And the elves in this game are evil, probally due too much rape.

Played it for some time and enjoyed it I guess.

The use of women was not particularly natural because either they were old as hell or mostly young and big breasted. Any teenager would sure love this game.

It's called creating a userbase! :p I haven't tried it though, but as I'm getting back into gaming after 50 years of WoW; is it worth buying?

The Witcher worth buying?

Well, let me describe the universe to you.

Landscapes are pretty awesome, nice views here and there and if you have a good pc and a monitor that can cope with settings of 1600x1240 or something it will look great o_O

Atmosphere is very realistic, there are beggars in the small village and all kinds of criminals and corrupt rich guys. Also an ignorant priest who is totally convinced about his religion, kind off an extremist.

Within the city it even gets worse actually, there are whores, shops, merchants, guards, corrupt government people again, spies, assassins, racists. Get it?

It feels very real, also when you stun an enemy and attack him you get a fucking brutal execution move seriously i had this one move where he would stab his sword into the enemies chest and pull it to his head while blood was gushing all over the place =D

So bloody, raw, realistic, beatiful landscapes, lots of dialogues but you can also have a lot of action that's a players choice actually.

Screenies from me here >.>

It wasnt what it was cracked up to be, previews talked about a complex combo system and varied, exciting quests.
What we got was "Click on enemy, wait, click on enemy again" and "Kill X amount of Y"..
Ok, yes, I stole that off Zero Punctuation, but it IS true.

On the other hand, the animations were great (Yay for motion capture :D) and this made it all look pretty good.
