watch the spoilers hakkai007 :o

and i agree with you..having the choices you made early on in the game come back and bite you in the butt later on is really what made me so drawn to the game. None of the choices in the game were black and white and you were stuck deciding between the lesser of two evil's.

Lets just hope the melee combat isn't pathetic like the first game. I actually stopped playing the game because the sword combat was so boring and didn't require any skill. Just wait for the right moment, click, and he automatically attacks.

Hakkai007

Just try the Combat Rebalance Mod and you will die in seconds.

It require the precise use of potions and oils.

You have to be quick and move away from attacks too.

That doesn't justify the vanilla game's combat system. Just because a mod improves a facet of gameplay that doesn't mean the game was good at it in the first place. I found it to be deep and something that required tactics but thats just me.

This game is going to be my new favorite RPG of all time, I can feel it.

I love foreign work(I'm from the US). The USA has gotten so hammy and cheesy with almost everything it produces from music, to movies, to video games. And they have been so bad it's been unbelievable. I'm glad I can rely on foreign content for all 3 of them(Of course, there still is a some good American music, just have to stay away from the mainstream stuff for the most part). :)

I wouldn't get too excited. The first one had awesome previews and trailers too, but that turned out to be a total mess.

Please the first one is the best RPG to come out this gen so far.

I continued to play Dragon Age because the combat was decent. The story was so generic and done till death it wasn't even funny.

Again who plays a game for it's story when you don't like the gameplay? I will not force myself trough it,especially when it's not worth it. Games are not on that level of writting yet.

Actually I only continued through DA:O and Awakening because of the story. The gameplay got boring near level 20 and I really started to hate it. Made me wish I had DA2's Hack n slash combat right now.

They are "looking into it" right now, they said that they wont put the game on consoles if they cant give it the fidelity they believe it deserves. And if they do it will probably be ported after the PC version released So in other words most likely it wont be coming to consoles.

I enjoy the fact you're getting upset over a joke. You're right TW1 didn't have the best combat system but everything else was great. As for DA:O I cn't say I played the game because it had a good story (it wasn't anything special) but I did enjoy most of the cast. I mainly played the game for the replay value (until I ran into a huge glitch).

why does everyone who is agaisnt the witcher always bring up the combat as a con.. gamespot seemed to think it was great

New battle mechanics, a fantastic storyline, and a gritty setting make The Witcher one of the most engrossing, mature RPGs to arrive on the PC in years.

The Good

  • Dark, foreboding world that looks, sounds, and feels lived in
  • Fantastic story populated by realistic NPCs with realistic problems
  • Innovative new combat mechanics add depth in place of mindless clicking
  • Cinematic visuals and a superb soundtrack.

"Don't be afraid of change. Even though The Witcher may scare off some people with inventive combat that replaces comfortable old rapid-fire clicking with rhythmic sword swinging, there is no need to avoid one of the deepest, most adult role-playing games to hit the PC in years."

"it's hard not to love the combat system. Battles are only a little more involved than the standard clickfest stuff, yet the mechanics always make you think about what you're doing and provide real satisfaction when you take out tough foes. Attacks also simply look cool, especially when you're jumping around slinging your sword in all directions in the middle of a pack of monsters."

I liked the combat too. Sometimes it was clunky, and it was hard to get used to, but once i got the hang of it i enjoyed it very much.

Why are developer diaries always shot with those pretentious asshat camera angles? It completely takes me out of the whole thing.I hate watching them because it's so distracting and borderline comical.

"Lets get a shot of this guy from the side with a close up on his chin while he talks about the scripting process"

The game looks smoking hot though. I found myself wanting to like the first game a lot more than I actually did.Hopefully this one doesn't turn out the same way for me.

I don't get it either. My biggest concern for this game is not selling like it deserves :(. I really hope it will reach at least two million.

It sold 1.5 million copies according to the trailer. It's sad when a game like Fable III sells more on it's opening day. But then again Fable III also outsold ME2 too :P

It's still very good. They consider it a huge success when they brag about it like that. I just really hope TW2 does better.

It was a debut game of an unknown dev, of course 1.5 mil is fantastic.
