I love this game. And I realy happy I can choose language to play.

That IS cool, isn't it?

Play one, play 'em all! :D

Given that we can have the voice-over in one language and the subtitles in another, we can probably learn new languages via The Witcher.  Well, as long as all we need to say in a language is "I'm here about the notice" and "I must speak with you about Salamandra."  :D

Uh-Uh! I don't think so. I found it particularly difficult when I tried it. Pity BG is not among them, but RU seemed OK for me.
Still, it did not fit well as I was always confused what to do. Me, a pro now at this... confused?? Proof it don't work for us all. :(


Really? I didn't know that. I LOVED Sapkowski's works (yes, I finished them now - 3 of 'em translated) and now it's not even based on them?
This frightens me a little. Hope they know what they are doing... :whatthe:

I'm sitting at my desk listening to music while downloading EE and Director's Cut versions of the game.  Since the PX on base only had The Witcher Original and I don't have the luxury of going to a gamestop or something to buy it.  I am eagerly awaiting to play this game.
Cheers everyone!

Hello there Stycks, be sure to report back on your progress... I'm sure you'll Love this game (Also Hate some BAD judgements), but you're Welcome here.
So welcome that you can visit our Welcome Thread :peace:

I bought the game recently from Atari (wish Impulse could distribute it in France,  >:( ).
I love the game.
It crashes way too often, including during saves, which makes autosave mandatory, but that's the only flaw I can think of.
I love the 2D art used to show the unexpected consequences of one's choices. The load screens are also great, and some 3D models faces are also very beautiful.
But most of all the story is great, and the choices/consequences and general atmosphere of the game remind the books very well. Congratulations to the writers.
Great gameplay, I only had one case of looking for spoilers to find out how to cross that damn city (before finding I had to wait till dawn to be able to enter where I had to..) so I could stay immerged in the game very well.

Ok, another thing I HATE about this game. Oh well, one more thing to the list of undesirables...

The game's loading times are really starting to bug me, and even after all the pc speed I have, these loads are taking my precious game time away
to such a point that I don't even feel like switching on the game. For a veteran gamer playing years now, I guess this should be accepted and even
tolerated for now. Hopefully TW2 will not have this same problem... I may tolerate it at first, but it always comes back at you. :peace:

I just beat this game!  It was my first time every playing it.  I played the Enhanced Directors cut.  WOW I haven't played a game with such amazing writing since Mask of the Betrayer.  The Witcher just had such an amazing story!   So glad I found some time to play this game!

Truly Great!

So glad you enjoyed it so much. Ready for another play-through? As I think you noticed, your choices chose your path, so there are others... why not have another go at it?
Hope you find time to enjoy all this game has to offer, as I know that some of us are really time-pressed. Have fun, enjoy. :peace:

It would be fun to play it again, I don't think I would have done anything differently though.  I just bought the book off Amazon.  The writing in the game the story so impressed me!   
When I have the time probably in Dec I want to play KOTOR 2 something I never played before.
The Witcher was better then what I imagined it to be!

Maybe you could try doing things differently? Trust me, it's worth it. Also, The Witcher 2 is on it's way and you can check it's trailer on YouTube if you want.
Depending on your language, TW books may vary from 1 to many depending on how many were translated. Thus far, 2 books were translated for English.
I am being careful not to spoil anything for you so pardon if you were expecting spoiler details... for that you would just need to ask  ;D

Thank God for The Witcher, otherwise how would Bioware been able to work out how to make Dragon Age! The Witcher's - The Warden's. The Dark Fantasy - The Dark Fantasy. The put upon Dwarf's - the put upon Elf's. The Politics of the gameworld - the Politics of the gameworld. The Sex - The Sex. The use of the Infinity Engine - an Engine to look like the Infinity Engine!!!

Yes, truly. Dragon Age - The Witcher! CD Projekt may have to call their next game The Witcher 3 !!!!! :)
