Skyrim vs The Witcher 2 Enhanced

I personally would say Witcher2 is the slightly better game for me personally. It had a bigger impact on me storywise and I didnt get tired/bored of it before I finished the game like I did with Skyrim.

Skyrim offers more missions, sandbox gameplay, tons of mods, etc..

While Witcher2 is mroe story, characters driven and better graphics

With that being said, I would probably reccomend Skyrim to more people then Witcher2, as it seems more people these days seem to like more freedom of where they can go in rpgs and what not.

Both great rpgs that offer different things, really depends on what the person wants in there rpg to be honest.

Witcher 2 no contest.

I liked skryim a lot, it was just so wooden.

Skyrim is great cause the mods you can get... haven't gotten into the witcher 2 yet. Without mods though, the skyrim graphics are pretty rough around the edges.

Whichever one has a kajillion goty awards and is hailed by pretty much every proffessional critic.

Yeah, that makes perfect sense.

Let's leave it to the profe$$ionals.

Skyrim...I like RPG's that focus on exploration and character development rather than RPG's focused on telling stories and heavy emphasis on tons of dialog. Renevent42

[QUOTE="Renevent42"][QUOTE="SF_KiLLaMaN"] There is pretty twice the amount of character development in The Witcher 2 when compared to Skyrim. The characters actually develop in other ways than just stats.SF_KiLLaMaN

I thought the combat was decent, especially for an Elder Scrolls game which frankly never had top notch combat. Even Morrowind's combat was pretty ho-hum even against some of it's closer competition.

For instance, Arx Fatalis (which was released around the same time) I thought had much cooler combat. Aside from it's unique magic system, the melee combat was better IMO too. Enemies reacted believably to being damaged, in some cases crying out in pain or hobbling away in fear. There was decapitations and dismemberment as well.

Skyrim did do some nice additions to the formula...I especially like unlocking new moves although there could have been more. The finishing moves were pretty neat too. The actual combat did end up feeling a tad shallow though, mostly due to the low difficulty level. If you were required to utilize the tools they gave you (and there was quite a lot of options there) it would have been better.

Overall it does get repetitive but in the grande scheme of things and judging Skyrim as a whole I think it's one of my favorite RPG's of the last few years and totally agree with all the GOTY awards and high marks it received.

I took your advices, and I got the witcher 2 enhanced for pc. Im playing it maxed out, it looks amazing! I say it looks better then crysis. So far so good

Thanks :D
