    Maybe they should do what they've did with swords.

    Steel for Humans. Silver for monsters.

    Plate for Humans. Leather for monsters.

    Maybe it depends on the mythology but aren't unicorns supposed to only let virgin maidens ride them? He should be all NO SIR, I DON'T LIKE IT.

    This is so cheap and distasteful. Showing Geralts ass to attract all those Bioware faggots playing lgbt gangbang simulators. It's so fucking bad CDPR, you should be ashamed. Really.

    No, it isn't exactly like that. I don't play Ass Creed (well I did the first one and it was a sleep-inducing experience so I never bothered with sequels) but in action adventures your character is more or less set in terms of power and ability while in both Witchers Geralt's power increases drastically the further you are into the game which makes no sense lore-wise. Standard RPG progression just isn't a good fit when your protagonist is someone like Geralt.

    OK, I am pretty sure you guys are all talking past each other

    I THINK what at least one person here is trying to say is that the game should remove all stats, but keep the C&C elements, as supposedly seen in action-adventure games like AC4: Black Flag.

    Does it actually look better though? I know it's supposed to be faster.
    Watch the video and see the bathing scene at the start if you think that's bad.

    More or less, yes (though I have no idea if AC4 has C&C). I'd be fine with Geralt learning some new moves to expand his options in combat similar to Batman Arkham games but not much more than that. I don't want to start the game having to use 5+ hits to kill a regular soldier and end up one-hitting Dragons, I don't have particular fondness for such character progression in general but I especially dislike it in this case.

    So this game is pretty much a BioWare game at this point, minus all the LGBT projection from Gaider? Guess that appeals to some people.

    Nope nope nope. There was always a big difference between the two. Bioware is all about shitty romances, while The Witcher is casual sex with hot chicks you just met.

    Currently revisiting TW1 Act 2. Wow, the length of fed-ex chain punctuated with combat here and there...
    Somehow I just lost my stamina after failing to find a NPC. Told me to visit a tavern. Went there at different times, guy's not there.
    Look at the quest journal and it's full of those kinds.

    I shd take a break.

    That only matters if you were trying to develop a intimate relationship with her.. J_C already explained this.

    Big deal, you could already tell the precise outline of his buns from his spy catsuit.

    I don't know if that makes it better or worse :lol:

    (or maybe it's simply frozen with fear...)

    Disgust is not the right word, that implies prudishness, it's more like...distaste? Animated videogame sex always feels awkward. GTA-style fadeouts allow you to have teh sexorz in the game without having to watch Ken and Barbie rubbing against each other.

    These mods on the witcher forums have incredibly thin skins. The second they get pissy at anything they edit peoples posts to talking about my little pony or editing in pony pictures. And I thought white knights in power were bad.
