The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Enhanced Edition

Easily the best story, c&c and quest design. Flawed controls, and combat system requiring mouse button mashing are the downsides of the game though.

Great game, great graphics, good voice acting. Visually stunning, especially on Ultra, although some stuttering even on my Phenom 2 6x and amd 6970 setup, but with a patch due so soon this is forgivable. Not too far in but very impresed.

I'll be blunt. The first hour I played this game I almost quit because I couldn't figure it out, and kept dying. But I persevered, actually read the manual (!) and proceeded to kick a lot of monster ass, make my way through a unique, beautiful and amazing gritty fantasy world and carefully consider every choice I made, because even the little ones count. The best part is that your choices are not cartoony good versus evil kind of choices. They are realistic and really challenge you to ... gasp... ROLE PLAY your character. What would I do? Would I rescue the women trapped in a burning building, or chase the evil bastard who locked them in there? Would I kill a troll who likes to cook elves? Or help him with his relationship issues? Would I lie to my king to cover my own butt? Or be bluntly honest? There is no right answer to any of these choices... they are just choices, and you live with them for the rest of the game. I love it. Yes, the game has some flaws. The awful tutorial phase may turn off some people. Some of the witcher signs are too strong, others are nearly useless. I kind of miss group style. But my complaints are minor. This is a great, action-packed game that is still a true RPG. The characters are interesting and multi-layered. The NPCs all have names and populate a world they seem to make their own. The monsters are scary and fun to fight. Alchemy is even more fun, and crafting is fun too. There are a lot more swords and armour you can find, make and wear. The game suits whatever play style you like. And it has a lot of replay value. You must make a choice in the first act which affects the second and third drastically. And there are three character development paths you can follow, magic alchemy or swordsmanship, making for three different game experiences. Overall, I love this game and recommend it to anyone who likes action RPG games, especially ones with a great, complex and compelling story.

The game is awesome. For an RPG the graphical quality is off the charts. The music is excelent too. The plot is execelent and mature. Really high replay value. You can't say you has play all the game if you hasn't finished at least one the two main paths of the game. The only thing you have to keep in mind if you gonna buy this game is: It isn't a classic RPG. It is and action rpg. You don't get that much puzzles as in classic rpgs and the combat is more challenging.

my only gripe is when I pause or go in certain places it will freeze a bit for a half a second or to 2 seconds but other then that on high with custom setting the game runs flawlessly, glad I bought it at GOG.com which it was DRM free 3 days ago
