The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Enhanced Edition

Shame this game here does't support czech language...will buy it, but not without czech

Like some other users say before me, this is a big step back compared to the first game of the serie. The graphics are more beautiful and more refined of course, but it's still a fake-3d world (and frankly this is embarrassing, if you consider that was released in 2011!): Geralt cannot jump, climb, fall etc. Tedious and unrealistic. The plot is very good, but it's shorter than the first Witcher: it's true that you have two main storylines and this guarantees replayability, but each storyline is more or less 20/22 hours, it's not an acceptable lenghth for an AAA-game But the tragic problem is the combat system: man, it's really frustrating. You cannot use potions during combat (and this doesn't make any sense), you cannot save (and some boss fights are marathons, if you die at the end you have lost a lot of time) and Geralt is very vulnerable, even at medium level two or three blows and you are dead. Beside those facts, the presence of QTE is an insult to the concept of RPG. Don't even try to play that without a controller, you will become mad, unless you want to play at the lowest difficulty level. Honestly i can't understand all the 5 stars reviews, it's a mystery for me. I gave 2 stars only because the plot is interesting and the graphics are good, the rest of the game is a disaster.

Installed it successfully. Printed out a list of control keys and kept it in front of me for reference, until I could learn them. First problem: the manual's list is far from complete. I kept seeing more new keys to use during the tutorial as it led me through the first 20 minutes or so of gameplay. Second problem: You have to use a mouse and keyboard (TOO MANY keys on the keyboard) to play (which is bad). But even worse: they've made the mouse unusable. It lags and is erratic, and you MUST use the mouse to aim quickly at your opponents. I made the recommended adjustments in an .INI file, but that was just more wasted time. Third problem: Got to the point where I was aiming darts at an opponent. I couldn't aim at him. He was hurling bright orange fireballs, which made the pale off-white pointer I'm supposed to use to aim darts at him literally IMPOSSIBLE to see! So I had no hope of ever aiming at him and releasing a dart. Fourth problem: (Keep in mind that at this point I haven't even gotten out of the tutorial yet!) After randomly throwing so many darts that the game gave up on teaching me that part, I had a new Talent available. So I followed the tutorial's instructions and spent the talent on Character Development and my character got upgraded. ... except it kind of didn't. It did, but it didn't -- because I kept going back and forth between two screens: the one where I had already used the Talent, and the screen that told me (repeatedly) that I now need to use my new Talent on Character Development. This isn't a game, it's a frustrating exercise in futility. To think that it was first developed for PCs 9 years ago, and that's what I've been TRYING to play it on 9 years later, and STILL it's an unplayable P-o-S?! The developers took a great franchise name and premise and totally ruined it. I proudly stand by this review as my first-ever ONE STAR rating. The game has 100% earned that rating.

Dies ist mit Abstand das schlechteste Spiel, das ich je gespielt habe. Ich bin aus der "Spaceinvaders" Generation und habe so einige Spiele gespielt. Die Grafik ist ok, aber das Kampfsystem, die Ausgewogenheit der Gegner je Level, das gesamte Balancing sind totaler (sorry) Müll. Ich habe Witcher 1 gespielt, Skyrim, Fallout 3-4, Horizon Zero, Cyberpunk(s) etc.p.p. Aber das hier...? Für mich gibt´s nur eins: "uninstall".

good
