After thoroughly enjoying the first Witcher, the next game in the series leaves much to be desired. The combat is simply horrid and flows very poorly as compared to the first one, and hitching and bugs are replete throughout the game. Perhaps the worst part is the extreme problems related to patching the game. After multiple installs and uninstalls the game refuses to work correctly. It's unfortunate because the story, art and acting in the game are superb, but it has been years since I have encountered a game with this many technical issues. Here's hoping that the next will have better QA before it is shipped.
