After Prologue, which frustrated me last night and forced to turn off the computer I still wonder whether The Witcher 2 is still an RPG or simple action game.
One - I have to use my own skills instead Geralt's abilities in fighting and sneaking. Two - QTE which I hate as these are simple clicking for idiots, not RPG fans, especially when the game shows you what part of the mouse you should tap (am I THAT stupid not to get it?). And three - you cannot save the game whenever you want to; that's a huge slap in the face for all the role-playing fans!
It's my first impression. But if I knew all that yesterday I wouldn't buy the game on GOG at least (retail version can be sold again, digital - not).
Sorry, but too many good words were told about the game which in my opinion doesn't deserve it. I admit it may change with the story progress but for now I'm quite disappointed.
