Honestly, the comparison is just unfair. DA:O and DA2 were both extremely badly written, with a generic setting, stupid characters and dialogues, and an idiotic plot. DA2 even moreso than DA:O. It's hardly a virtue making a game which is better than DA2.
It would be interesting to compare W2 with a good story-driven RPG, however. I really hope that W2 is as good as its graphics.

DA:O had a generic plot, but the badly written part ends there. Its characters and some of the politics and decisions were well done. Certainly better than most games, if not on the level of The Witcher.

Witcher 1 all about the politics of the world. Salamandra was just a small part in a grand scheme it was amazing!
DA2 left people in a bad mood. Witcher 2 looks like it's a tribute to loyal PC gamers. Instead of a dumbed down sequel it's everything we want and more. DA2 other wise was not.

It's a convenient way to pad play time though - they're thinly disguised fetch quests (for Alice's card you need to get bread from Charlie etc) that the core demographic (20-ish male) is somewhat more likely to complete than the regular "acquire $number $monster remains for $gold reward" quest (which requires you to first acquire a book on $monster)

I haven't been following Witcher 2, since the first was soooo stupid. I played the demo, and couldn't get past the first castle...the dialog was so mind numbing, and the combat was horrific. I heard you got playing cards for having sex, and that was kind of the nail in the coffin for me...seriously pathetic.
If Witcher 2 has good combat and has less idiotic dialog, I'll check it out.

Don't forget, it isn't for consoles therefore it's automatically worse than BioWare games

But they are planning the game on consoles. Even wanted to get the first one on consoles but it didn't pan out. What happens when it does? Are you all going to abandon it as not a true RPG because it';s been "dumbed down" for the consoles?

That depends..I can name bunch of games that were ruined by this new audience approach to entertainment and fans were outraged (Deus Ex, UT3 and for more contemporary example Crysis 2) since there is diametrically different mindset in the approach of certain facets to what is considered fun/entertaining by either party. Not to mention there is much more development freedom on PC than on consoles and also a wider audience if the quality is good...for instance take Mass Effect it sold around 2 mil copies on 2 platforms and Witcher 1 sold 1.7 milion on one... it is just an urban legend that more platforms = more copies sold and therefore more money... if the game is good it can pay for all development and marketing expenses on PC alone...Moondoggie wrote...
In the long run i think expanding to consoles is a better option than being a PC exclusive franchise. Is it going to please the PC fans? No but you get to welcome in a whole new fanbase and expand your franchise. There's no point in not expanding your buisiness just to appeal to a few people who want to feel their platform is better than everything else nad get butthurt because a title appears on other platforms. There's really no reason why it can't come to the consoles. And if the fans really are fans they won't abandon Cd Projeckt just because they made console versions.
