Geralt is a pale, apathetic loser. Hawke is an awesome, giant sword-swinging badass who has a sweet beard and can conjure giant hands out of the air to rip people in half.

So I guess Hawke wins.

First of all: Hawke's weapon is not a giant sword, it's a Halberd.
Second: They both kick ass.
Third: There alot of other kick ass, chuck-norris-like characters in other games (Take Starkiller from Force Unleashed. That dude killed just about everyone on the Death Star, and kicked both Vader and Sidious' asses like they were ragdolls. Or even The Prince of Persia (the new series by Ubisoft). He can turn back,slow down time and has some mind-blowing acrobatics)
And finally: I think that Hawke and Geralt would get drunk off their asses and burn an entire village, after that killing a ****load of darkspawn. (getting laid with every woman they see being included)

God do I hate the Witcher. Game wanted me to grind up a whole level on spectral dogs to put points into alchemy to advance the plot. I never picked it up again.

ROFL!

20 dogs now is a grind and a level!

Gotta love the internet!

Try geting past tutorial next time!

Your complaint is like me complaining I had to start in a castle as a noble in DA:O.

Damn Bioware, wanted me to grind a whole level on Howes men! 
What were they thinking????

First of all, it was like 3 and a half hours into the game. I had JUST leveled and the game didn't say anything about alchemy when I happily dumped all my points into combat skills. Three minutes later I get a quest that requires alchemy and I no longer have any points for it. I wasn't having any fun anyway, so I stopped playing. Sue me. And stop being such an elitist.

LOL, caught yas 

The entire opening sceen is ABOUT WITCHER ALCHEMY, so how exactly does the game not say anything about it when the opening sceen details it?

Oh and btw, they give a free point toward aard sign for you do do the quest your speaking off.
As for trishs potion (which is 15 minutes into game btw) you dont need points in alchemy as there is NO SKILLS LEVELS for alchemy, if you bothered to read your screen you would have found out you needed components, not skill points, to make the potion!

3 1/2 hours to get to to the village? 3.5 hours??? thats 3 with a .5 after it right???? I mean, I hear of slow playing but wow that takes cake.

Took me 1 hour to get to village first time through, how about you Slim? 1 hour sound about right?

And lastly, the start of chapter 1 is still tutorial mode as you learn a ton of stuff in the next 45 minutes to a hour of game play! The witcher is a detailed game, not a sit down and load mindlessly game! You have to learn the systems and the world before they throw you head first into everything.

You don't need any alchemy for that quest - it helps, sure, but I did it without the first time. It's not even all that hard...

Not only you don't need alchemy but you also should have a Cat potion in your inventory if you explored the minimum of the Outskirts like chests in abandoned huts and in the Inn or around the vilarejo.

And the game cannot be blamed by rushed decisions about character development. And if you mean Herbalism as the skill you lacked, you don't need Herbalism to mix potions. You have done it right at the prologue at the fortress ruins to save Triss, remember? There are people who sell ingredients.

Herbalism alone won't help you at all. You don't have most formulas, You haven't read most tomes on botanic so you only gather 2 or 3 basic flowers, seeds and fruits at that point. Cannot do much with them.

BUT, once Geralt has knowledge of advanced alchemy, poor Hawke would flee in despair. Or at least try to.before being decapitated.

Actually, I really wouldn't call that thing a halberd. No axe, no hook, and the blade is very long. I can't think of a better word for it than "long sword", since it lacks the curve associated with most blades-on-a-stick.

Just wondering after seeing the trailer. I also wonder if Hawke being able to channel magic from his blood makes him sort of a "witcher", having a mixture of magical and fighter abilities at once.

Thread gets locked before a winner can be determined because of "No VS threads please".

If they would have enough time, however, Geralt would win. He´s much more badass.

Jeez, I clearly picked the wrong forum to not like the Witcher on. You'll note that I said I wasn't having fun anyway. If I had been properly motivated I'm sure I could have completed the quest. But I wasn't. I was bored.

[sonofalich]

Geralt of Rivia of course, he slays biatches.

[HighlandBerserkr]

Hawke, screw that Emo wannabe

No worries. The Witcher isn't for everyone, and its not without its faults. I happen to love it, warts and all.

It didn't help that my laptop could barely run it. My opinions of a lot of games are colored by my shoddy hardware.

I never noticed any eye liner, who says his hair is died black? and he has a beard, that already makes him infinitly better than Whitcher.

Thats it. I want an Arm wrestling Minigame in DA2 between Geralt and Hawke.

Bioware, MAKE IT HAPPEN!

If not that, then a drinking contest. Hawke might win that one. 3 drinks and my Geralt was toast.

Hawke would definately lose against that old Granny in a drinking contest.

He has an unscarred babyface unworthy of a beard. Geralt on the other hand looks like a man and not a discarded member of Culture Club.

That would explain a lot - having a decent PC really helps make the game more interesting, making combat more fluid and reducing load times.

Anyway, you're free not to like the Witcher, if it's not your kind of game, but if you imply that it's a bad game I will defend it. The witcher is a good game - it's just not everyone's cup of tea.

[AndrahilAdrian]

Hawke and Geralt would be mates if they shared a universe. They would probably team up to take on master chief and soap mctavish in the name of crpgs everywhere!

Nothing to do with likeing or dislikeing the game, people free to make their own decisions.

You however were stating bold face falsehoods about the game (which isnt needed or required)

Just say you dont like and move on.

I dont like Morrowind or Oblivion so thats what I say, I dont "create" a million and one false excuses why I dont like it, I simply dont like it, nuff said.

Witcher is high deep fantasy, its not for everyone.
LOL, more I play The Witcher, the less DA:O seems to impress me (and I loved that game originally). All comes down to taste and what you after.

[casedawgz]

So it's a bold falsehood that it took me 3.5 hours to reach that point? It did. None of my "excuses" were false. I wasn't having fun. Then little things started to irritate me so I stopped playing. Get off your high horse and don't call me a liar.

[Rubbish Hero]

Second half Witcher really good.

First half suck big balls.
