Whoa, those graphics are incredible. Just look at the lightning effects, shadows, and Geralt's animations! You just know this is going to be a huge game. Let me tell you how mind-blowing the graphics are. And have you seen the way they talked about how they look better than that game, Dragon Age 2? Lothering looks like it was hit by a comet LOL it's so barren it's going to suck!! I just know I'm going to spend every waking hour of the game admiring each individual character model that's completely irrelevant to the story and siequests because they're so unique.
This is pure talent. Bioware is finished, with their fans left to stare at a dry, barren chunk of sad, uninspired brown.
I hate the way Dragon Age 2 looks after playing the demo, but after finishing The Witcher i really cant wait for the sequel because it looks 10x better.
[QUOTE="ManicAce"]It looks great but I don't think it's anywhere near a graphics king, best looking RPG maybe. And honestly, if this game was a multiplat from the get-go it wouldn't be getting all this praise and people would be crying dumbing down, but I guess that's always the case.SkyWard20
What are you talking about? This is the RPG of the decade! True ( PC ) Gamers™ have been dying for a true PC RPG™ that isn't dumbed down and streamlined by this generation of ADHD, button mashing, 'one button combat and something awesome happens', cinematic explosions, grade school console kiddies.
This is a true RPG™ for true RPG fans™. Go play your consolized Dragon Age or Mass Effect, let the PC gamers™ handle the real RPG's.
I think Skyward is mad:o My sarcasm meter is going crazy:?:lol:Dont turn this into a VS thread.. just post your thoughts:P

Not sure if serious....One thing about the game that I don't like, judging from that video, is how often roll is used. I would much rather see a side-step dodge rather than just rolling all the time.
Anyways, once they clean up the combat, and the animations this'll be one of the best looking games ever. :D
mother of mercy, those are beautiful.
this game may be the effort required for me to finally upgrade my PC.
this and dragon age 2 are going to be awesome WRPG's.
Im betting the player was just bad or a newb. Im sure in the first Witcher you could step back and stuff to avoid attacks. I doubt all you can do is just roll..One thing about the game that I don't like, judging from that video, is how often roll is used.

I am in complete agreement.
DA2 is swag, ME2 is swag; Bioware has failed to maintain; CoD is their new goal.
Witcher 2 will hopefully replace DA2 as the true RPG followup from last years DA:O.
It's truly sad to see Bioware fail this hard, fortunately eastern block devs are still committed to non-gimped tripe.
Your hyperbole = my reality!
I'm excited for the game, but watching the full video of thid gameplay left me hating one thing: the ponytail.
The first three minutes of the video consists of a ponytail swinging back and forth.
It made me think of Jan Brady.
DA2 IS teh SxxuORsxSx!11!!1!!one!!1
But serious....this game looks solid, although the combat seems too clunky for me.

Hahaha, someone is a little angry. You can always remember though that The Witcher series is 10 times more original than the Dragon Age series.Technically the Witcher is a Eastern European RPG (EERPG?)mother of mercy, those are beautiful.

[QUOTE="johny300"]Graphics king!!!.Mozelleple112Not really close to Crysis or Metro 2033 8) You seem pretty upset by how much better Witcher 2 looks over DA2.
You claimed the graphics were impossible before, now with real footage, you try to make claims like this, its hilarious. :lol:
Demon's Souls gameplay looked pretty bland too, till you actually play it. :oGraphically pretty amazing.
Looks a little boring though.

Not direct enough for you eh?

Somehow I doubt this game will be the same way for me but your point still stands.
When it finally hits consoles Ill probably give it a spin.

Yeah, its true, its unlikely it will be the same situation, but that was a life lesson to me. :P Though I'm equally excited about questing, plot, etc, combat looks fun enough. Combat was not super great in The Witcher but it was still awesome overall.mother of mercy, those are beautiful.

I upgraded my pc for Diablo 3,SC2 and w/e The Witcher comes out :P.
Dragon Age 2 and The Witcher 2 coming out in the same year = Christmas for people who love WRPGS
Im in agreement with Skyward in some respects, this is nowhere near graphics king, the combat animations are ... average, infact its annoying to watch as it seems ot be a case of "roll spam" ... it looks akward, immature and completely removes any sense of immersion during combat. The Witcher was good, I prefered it to DA. but jesus christ the level of worship of this game is ridiculous.
Nobody is willing to pick out its flaws, which is fine, but damn, at least admit they are there, ive pre-ordered yet its far from perfect.

I think all the out of place swear words and all around bad writing account for that![QUOTE="mattuk69"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5MKAIUcFC_o&feature=player_detailpage#t=106s You owned him pretty soundly.I can see why it runs on consoles now. The lvl design is like uncharted done in a confined space.

Yes that is very true.
I'm still excited for the Witcher 2, but I never felt like CD project was good at showing off their game. A lot of the combat looked really janky in that video.
[QUOTE="DarkStraberry"]Technically the Witcher is a Eastern European RPG (EERPG?)_trTechnically the Witcher is a Central European RPG (CERPG) :P We Poles don't like term "eastern" in reference tu us.
at the end of the day, its still based off where you were in relation to the Berlin Wall.
[QUOTE="DarkStraberry"]Technically the Witcher is a Eastern European RPG (EERPG?)_trTechnically the Witcher is a Central European RPG (CERPG) :P We Poles don't like term "eastern" in reference tu us. WRPG and JRPG aren't determined by where the games are developed but the style of the game.
I swear that guy rolls more than adrunken lumberjack on a floating log. Other than that it looks nice.
