Story is nice, but gameplay is terrible. And the nice story is not also not excellent enough to cover the bad gameplay. Not recommend.
I want to play all Witcher games in order. Witcher 1 was old, but it's still good enough to play. Witcher 2 on the other hand, there are lots of problems, and now I just want to rush through the story and play the 3rd game. (I haven't finished it when writing this) - Often stuck by terrain when moving or dodging - When interact with something, character often get stuck on movement, and no action button can cancel it. I have to press F9. - Cat potion is a huge downgrade. Witcher 1 was perfect. What the hell is going on in Witcher 2? Very annoying heartbeat and Thermal Camera style visual? Even when NOT in cave? really? - Map sometimes don't update, I have to switch area again to update it. - A annoying bug that when touch a thunder effect, I got a thunder on my body and keep damaging me to death. - Can't rebind keys like Inventory, Journal, etc. - No explaination about the 4 sorting icons on the left side of Inventory menu. - No indication if I've read a book or not. - No indication where the Storage person is on the map. - The person I need to follow sometimes stuck and took a while to move on. She or he will only run a little bit faster when I'm extremely close to her/him. Not too far in the front, nor too far in behind. And she/he won't move if I'm a little bit far away. Annoying. - Wild monster hasn't yet appear and I'm already taking damage. I turn the camera and find out the monster is far far away, just doing spawning animation. - (maybe some more bugs)
