Dexterity (like any other "big stat") give you a bit more than +% bonuses. Dexterity from what I remember (I'm about 9 km from my pc) gives you for example ability to fight unarmed. Intelligence tree can give you the ablility to gather alchemical components (for this you'll also need proper knowledge). Dunno about thieving skills - this was unsignificant in the books (or not?) so I figure it didn't make to the game.

So what is a 'Witcher'? Is it like a Knight or something?

In any case, it is sounding promising so far. I will wait for more opinions first though.

Think a male version of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Cool. Buffy was one of the best television series to be made in the last 10 years or so. I only hope Geralt can measure up.

If you import the game to get the uncastrated version, is there an english language patch? Or do I have to get the edited game in order to play it in english?

I recall hearing somewhere that european versions are multi-language. Could be mistaken, though.

Oh sorry I was under the impression those dwelling within the UK spoke English! Looks like I was wrong.

It already hit the shelves!? When? I was looking for it yesterday and Media Markt didn't have it. Wouldn't make a fucking difference anyway, as I'm broke but hell...

Since it's a bit early for a meaningful review I'll just get down to the important part: The juicy screenshots.

Moar reviews please. I ve read somewhere the voice over is not so good, at least for the side quests. Any truth to that ?

yes tell us about the voiceovers plz.

I'm sure one of you gallant Codex warriors will finish the game in the next 7 hours, so you can tell us all about the C&C mechanics business we've been all hearing. Go forth and conquer with vigour :napoleon:

I'm going to wait for a credible review anyway before going to Media Markt/EMPiK/any other place where I'll be able to buy it.

I've heard enough from previews (see http://www.gamebanshee.com/previews/thewitcher2-1.php ) to think that this worth the 80 zl I'll have to pay.
