Second half of The Witcher is amaaaazing. :P Chapter 3 onwards is when it gets awesome. :)

So how can a game where the first half is bad be good?

He never said the first half is bad. You really are bad at this trolling stuff, aren't you?

You claimed you played through 2 chapters, so why couldn't you continue?

Mass Effect PC came out. I thought I'd enjoy it much more than The Witcher. Guess what - I was right.

Not for me. The Witcher 2 looks nice though.

They're about the same. The difference is, you can actually play Oblivion differently based on your class(like a real RPG).

No you couldn't. I mean, sure, your various fightermagethieves (you'd basically be all three at once, unless you limited yourself...for some reason) killed enemies in slightly different ways, but that was literally the only difference between characters or classes in Oblivion. Nothing in the story changed, none of the quests changed, none of your choices mattered in the slightest.

The only roleplaying in Oblivion ocurred in your own imagination, because the game didn't meaningfully react to anything that you did. It wouldn't even recognise extremely significant things - for example, if your magic-less orc barbarian became the archmage of the Mages' Guild, the Thieves' Guild would still ask you to go steal from your own guild, and leave a note on your own desk. It made no sense.

The Witcher, on the other hand, changed depending on your actions. It gave you options. Its roleplaying was fantastic. The lack of character customisation didn't really detriment that in any significant way.

Which was my point from the beggining - Oblivion has much richer gameplay and combat.

You can't expect a game this big to be perfect.

Too desperate to troll, are we?shane_orija

Who's trolling?

[QUOTE="ferret-gamer"]Interesting that this avoided becoming a DA2 vs Witcher thread, and instead became an oblivion vs witcher thread. waltefmoney

DA2 vs The Witcher got stale.

I wouldn't get over excited, its difficult to make good games. Beware the flop.

That´s probably because of the extremely disapointing sequel,a sequel that so many bioware fanboys were saying it would be way better than The Witcher 2. And even though TW2 isn´t out yet,I doubt it will average below 8 like DA2.

Arach666

It will probably beat it. I blame EA.

[QUOTE="delta3074"]whats wrong with oblivion? and who are you to tell me i have crap tastes in RPG's? just cos i have a different opinion of what a good RPG is doesn't mean i have crap taste,who the hell made you the definitive word on what is a 'good' RPG,lolSkyWard20

God Oblivion was good. Skyrim is gonna be amazing.

Fallout 3 was amazing. Oblivion was totally broken though. I don't know how anyone could play it on consoles or unmodded on PC. Mods made that game playable.

So now it's Witcher 2 vs all other RPG's? lawlessx

TW2 at worst will look better than any other RPG coming out this year, believing otherwise is likely to be a lie.

Oblivion was terrible. Graphics were breathtaking though. I still like it today. The purty graphics are probably the only reason I still have it installed today.

Anyways, back to my original question, is that the winged knight [spoiler] who tries to kill Ciri in the invasion of Cintra by Nilfgaard [/spoiler] in Blood of Elves?
