1 month and 15 days left. My expectations are soaring high for this game.

I already preordered the CE, lets hope it doesn't suck. I can't be worse then DA2 anyway.

Sure it can. The main character of TW2 alreayd makes it lose 5 points just on the ugly principle,

Your ignore list.
It will be a long time before anything can top DA2's shitness. It's not every day that you see a game take the mantle of worst game ever away from Oblivion over here.

So, is it possible to switch to 1st Person View or will the player be stuck with behind-the-ass-camera?
When playing a single character CRPG I want to be the character, not being the character's puppet master.

It really can't be less of an RPG than the first. And, yes, I'm fairly optimistic given the acknowledgments of the original's shortcomings I've seen by CD Projekt.

I think the first one is a great game. Not much of a RPG in the Fallout-as-benchmark sense, but still entertaining.

I piss on your juvenile scorn.

When playing a CRPG I want to watch the ass of character, not be the character. So out of many CRPG The Witcher is only one that force me to change to 1st Person View because I honestly dont want to watch Geralt's butt. In general I dont care for 1PV but in this case it' a necessity.

I find this whole argument disturbingly Freudian. I play TW using the over-the-shoulder cam, and my focus is always where the little dot reticule is pointing. Looking at Geralt's butt is the last thing on my mind.

Well well, I liked playing TW in the zoomed-out view and it looks like I'm SOL for the sequel so fuck you both.

What's with the CE thing? It seems to have been removed from Play.com and several other sites from the list of pre-orders, are they still going through with the thing, or is there a yet another "Woops sorry, ran into legal difficulties re: content of CE and now a bunch of idiotic EU states are refusing sale" going on?

While on that topic, settled for a preorder of the Premium edition, it's at 31€ at Play.com right now, so cheap I might have to order two in order to sleep with a clear conscience.

Only 10 000 copies of CE were planned to be sold worldwide so they have probably already run out of them.

Triss needs to workout those chicken legs.

Jesus, Geralt's pallid. Are those veins? Yeah I know, albinism, but I thought that was just hurr durr white hair. On the other hand, looks way better than the creepy uncanny valley sex scenes in DA2.

So you think Fallout 3 > Fallout 2 ?
