What is this garbage?!!?
-) abysmal fighting system based on clicking your mouse in the right intervals and switching combat styles. if you don't have the "correct" fighting style, you can't hit opponents AT ALL. this could be a game played on mobile phones... or an Atari game. and I don't mean Infogrames... -) no character creation and no signs of anything rpg really during the very very short period of time I played this (honestly, you rarely see a game so absolutely undesirable to be figured out) -) cliche-ridden story I can only call "American". you don't want to have anything to do with something so mundane unless your brain already is mush - and based on what I read, later it gets really ridiculous and embarassing with the focus on having sex with every other character in the game so in utter contrast to the high ratings, this game is pretty much unplayable dreck right from the start. I could only imagine people calling this "one of the best RPGs ever" (if I needed proof of why humanity needs to die out, this would be it) haven't played any REAL RPGs back in the day... but this is GoG where all these games can now be "bought" digitally... it couldn't be more insane

Couldn't launch it
Now, I understand if I got it on Steam, the (hacky) fix of '-dontforceminreqs' would be possible. But I got it here... How come the fix patch wasn't produced since, if this thing is still on sale? Why do I have to bother with your hacky fixes to get it running? I won't. But nice effort.

Good for Witcher fans
To be fair to the game, we would need to put in our mind that the game was released in 2007 and it was the first game from the studio. Pros: *The story are good and very interesting. It kept me engaged and motivated through the whole time and never felt bored and just want to end the game. *The combat are complex and cover a wide range of options and possibilities. You just need to get your grip on the combat system then you will enjoy it. *The graphics are good for its time. *The consequence of actions are really great and implemented in a good way. The actions of the players matter a lot and it change how the whole game are played. *The potion system are interesting and offer all the things a player need to boost the experience. Good potion user will have a better time playing the game. *Simple armor and weapon system with reasonable upgradable options through the game. *The journal contain a lot of useful information specially for lore motivated players. *Romance Card <3 Cons: *Quests are not ordered and you would need to figure out what order you need to follow from the Witcher wiki. *Some Quests don't trigger automatically and you would need to search in the Witcher wiki to check what is the next phase so you would be able to trigger the quest manually (like gold rush). *Some secondary quests are essential to progress in the game main story but its labeled as secondary (echo's of yesterday, six feet under, and gold rush). *Combat with OTS may get bugged at some fights and you would need to switch to other mode. *At chapter 5 at some point the game will start crashing a lot more than usual. From chapter 1-4 it crashed only twice, in chapter 5 alone it crashed around 4 times.
