巫师2：国王刺客加强版

Simply the best game I've played to date. I loved the Witcher 1, and it had it's flaws but it was still 9/10 for me. Considering that was CD Projekt's first effort - well, it was amazing. The graphics engine is amazing and I can run everything on max on GTX 570 with no issues...and it's absolutely beautiful! But the gameplay is again brought up to whole 'nother standard, with challenging combat that really makes you think about strategy and is reminiscent of Gothic 2 or Demon's Souls. The soundtrack is also superb, voice acting continues the great set of voices from the first Witcher (in English, anyway). From the intense Prologue to the minigames, everything has been improved, polished. CD Projekt, keep up the outstanding work and I will continue to buy your games only through gog.com, for your full monetary benefit and to support DRM-free releases! I can't wait to see what you come up with next! Thank you!

..But first I have to finish DL'n it! All 8hours that it takes to Download game is well worth it! Like many others, I usually prefer my games in the real world, right in front of me, yet the fact that this game company has decided to not only support GOG (and their stance on DRMs) by releasing their game on a site that caters to PC players exclusively, but also their active dedication towards their fans as well made me break that preference! To NOT buy and support this game from this magnificent site and a game company that doesn't treat us as ca$h cow$ would be as pointless, and futile as still calling myself "a gamer" if I had! Bravo CDProdjktRed, and thank you GOG!

The Witcher 2 features an elegance in its design that features both subtlety and intelligence, while simultaneously feeling modern. The original game featured many rich and interesting mechanics, and was a spectacular game in its own right. However, the sequel has completely reworked the presentation of these mechanics into a tight user friendly interface that has really aided the flow of gameplay. The pacing this time around is quicker, and the combat is more grandiose, but the core brilliance of the witcher series remains intact, and in-fact shines even more brightly. Due to advances in the technology, this time around we see a new cinematic vigor to the games characters which now appear much more natural and can provide very engaging movie-like performances. This complements the complex and interesting story elements that are presented in the games storyline. Through the course of the game we are tasked with understanding these characters motivations and making judgements based on character. The story itself is quite nuanced and well imagined, definitely playing to the strengths of the books in which it is inspired. If I had any complaints about the game, it would be about the trial and error process that takes place in some of the boss encounters. There are points where a lack of direction is damning, and there are even a couple of notable bugs that popped up during boss encounters further confusing matters. None of the issues managed to tear me away from the game however. It satisfied an itch for a smart RPG, one that doesn't pull punches, and offers a deep experience. I would say that this game stacks up well to others in its genre, in my opinion going toe to toe with Canadian RPG maker Bioware, in some cases even surpassing them. I can't wait to see the next one.

You must play !!!!

A great opening, but it gets a bit grindy in parts after that. I liked the way you can replay it from another angle. Unfortunately there is no first person view. I also knocked one star off because the installer is bundled with Galaxy, which I don't use (and doesn't add anything).
