Witcher Combat- WTF was CD Projekt thinking?

Try hitting space before the game loads completely, like, when the progress bar is at 100%, but the loading screen didn't shift to the game itself yet. Dunno if it works in TW, but it worked in NWN2, and since it's the same engine...
Thanks, I'll try giving that a shot if I run into a tough fight again.

Before EE came out, there's one instance of random sex that was... unusually random. Geralt has just rescued this half-elf chick from bandits--or something--in a house in Vizima. She proceeds to help him re-learn elvish, and after a few lines they have sex.

Keep in mind, the dialogue goes something like this:

Half-elf chick: *gibberish*
Geralt: *translates* "You are the sun child?"
Half-elf chick: *gibberish*
Geralt: "I come from the land of alabaster bridges?"
Half-elf chick: *gibberish*
Geralt: "Dearth of... love. End of the age? Yes, I understand."

And then sex scene occurs. What the fuck, are these supposed to be pick-up lines? Not sure if EE fixed this part of the dialogue since I never bothered to try the half-elf chick again.

Guess it does, since the last time I played, I remember the dialogue was extended to Geralt saying some more gibberish in elven (these being actual 'pickup lines') and then they have sex.

IMO the best real-time combat in any RPG i've played
I'm not sure how much that's saying...

Given that we won't be seeing many (if any at all) turn-based RPGs in the future, i'd say quite a lot actually. Then again I'm a simple person I guess...

Kaiserins remark was directed at the subordinate clause: in any RPG i've played

And I feel sure we're going to see many (shitty) turn based RPGs, don't be so pessimistic guys.

Yep - Eschalon is going to be a trilogy. More of the shitty turn-based combat is on the way.

Guess CDP learned their mistakes
