I think it's better then dragon age 2 but I still think it needs to be longer. The first witcher had some fail things to it but had more content. Don't get me wrong though, the witcher 2 is pretty awesome and would totally recommend it to anyone.

+1. The first DA was actually good. The second was awful.

the first one is considered by many people as a great RPG but actually beside dialogs and story it was just button smashing

if they wanted to follow RPG general classic rules like the performance is dependent by attributes of characters and not by dexterity of the player then they should have made it semi turn based battles more char skills and a party than a single hero guy (a bit like DAO or Baldurs Gate)

the witcher2 on other hands gets rid of stupid button smashing and is more action orientated

i would call it action adventure with RPG elements

the fights are definitely better than of part one

can't tell much of the story because i did not played more than 1.5 chapters yet

does it require powerful PC?

there were some performance issues on release version that got improved by patches

but yeah it needs some performance

Combat in the witcher 2 was much, much harder than in TW1. Plus, potions has shorter durations and are less effective. I played on hard and had to reload probably 50-60 times. It was satisfying though some fights were definitely better than others. Some of them touched on BGII/TOB, where preparation and choosing the right angle of attack/tactic was important.

As for the story it did feel a tiny bit shorter than I suspected, I would have liked for the game to be longer. As for replayability, I see four total playthroughs to be the dead end. First time through you probably wont max out one of 3 available "skill" trees with their own theme, and just pick random stuff depending on what you think is good. The other three you can attempt to be either caster, warrior or alchemist.

The only thing that detracts from the game is the cut-scenes where you have to click at certain points to succeed or you will have to 'do it again'. These weren't that much fun.

If you hate this, try playing Resident Evil 4/5.. In both of these games there were probably 20 moments where you had to press a combination of different buttons to save yourself.. so bad!

And BigDick, thanks for the deep review, I'll be trying it Smiley

Epic bump for an epic game, the Enhanced Edition is getting closer (April). That means new content for free, like the previous DLCs (Dark mode/2.0 update/etc)

New trailer:
