I actually want to stop playing this clusterfuck. I've been playing on Dark since the beginning and I don't know how I made it as far as the troll quest.
Enemies always block, and with no penalty or limit, while blocking costs vigor points while still taking health away from you. If you want to break an enemy's guard you must use one of your magic skills, which costs vigor. Wow, great game design right there.
After the end of any animation, Geralt freezes just long enough to get himself killed where blocking or dodging could not be performed.
Since enemies also are capable of stunning you with basic attacks, you must stay the fuck away from them lest you get spammed to death and pathetically whittle away at them with magic and cheap tactics, constantly going in a neverending fucking circle jerk whilst rolling.
Needless to say this is not my idea of a good time and I'm fucking sick of it. I have tried lowering the difficulty all the way to normal, and while I have enough health to last longer, these same gigantic problems remain. I'm stuck with my low level shit with no way to dig my out, except straight through the shit, and I'm not content to do that.
