Awesome.

I just hope that the character development mechanics and itemization will be closer to wht Flash envisioned for TW2, rather then what TW2 had at launch.

The Witcher 3 is picking up major awards for their E3 presentation ! Here is the list from the official CDPR blog. Lots of "best graphics", "best RPG", "best of E3" and so on. Over 60 awards I think, not to mention various nominations.

Today they won Game of the Show from Gametrailers and it's freakin' fantastic because I just can't wrap my head around what some of those major gaming sites see in Titanfall - it looks like Call of Duty with mechs and I'm not even exaggerating : /

Titanfall and Destiny look so cliche it hurts. Giant mechs and more space marines, yippee.

I have to wonder though.... if there were deveopers who had such brilliant ideas and gameplay concepts... how come the game was shipped with rather poor, half-baked character development and combat systems?

This is spot on.  I don't think he was referring to the personalities and and development of the characters in the game, rather the development of the combat trees and overall combat presentation.

I don't think it is a good indicator if the player has to "get used to" a game's combat mechanics.  By "get used to" I don't mean "wow, this is hard, I've got to start thinking."  Rather it's "wow, this just feels awkward, it's dependent on specific mechanics and ideal timing, and I've seen railway schedules in foreign languages that are more comprehensible than the combat tree displays."  It's like the "acquired taste" theory...that saying just means you are eating drink/food that tastes like ass.

All great games have their flaws and for me this was it for The Witcher.

Act two on Roche's path, not enough politics for you? Wow. I personally can't think of a game that has as much politics as act two does. I found that the magic, or curse rather, takes a distant back seat to the conspiracy and intrigue.

Oh, and you just threw the northern kingdoms into chaos, way to go....

But I did the same.

Damn, you should have went with Iorveth : D Vergen is a maze !

You would have met, arguably, the most brilliant woman in the entire game, Philippa Eilhart. The great thing about the Witcher 2 is that when you finish the game you won't have a full picture - you will have to play Act II again [on the other side] for some things to become clear. And then you will fully appreciate all of the story and design.

Unfortunately [and this always gets me] some people are so used to short games and linear RPGs that they do not even realize that the whole Act II can be completely different depending on your choice.

EDIT: Oh, yeah...

TW1 didn't really have politics on the grand scale that TW2 did. It was more investigative and personal to Geralt's mission. In TW2, Geralt is caught in a political tornado. At least that's what it felt like to me. You're an outsider in TW1, in TW2 you are a tool.

Iorveth's path provides a more interesting environment and perhaps better side quests, but Roche is my canon. Even after 5 playthroughs.


Edit- Phillipa is one of the most ingenious and powerful characters in the game, male or female. But she makes a couple mistakes.

Well written.

Witcher 1 barely had any political involvement and Geralt could even avoid most of it. The only time where you are forced into a decision is Abigail (guilty or not) and when Scoia' tael is robbbing the bank.
You can avoid The Order vs Scoia' tael war and you can also solve conflict between humans and vodyanoi without having to support anyone. Which are IMO the biggest political plots in the first game.

In Witcher 2 Geralt is literally forced into politics as soon as Chapter 2 begins.
The fate of Aedirn, Kaedwen and Temeria all depend on Geralt's decisions.

And that's why I think TW1 has a more compelling story than TW2, the option to be neutral and true to the "real" Geralt of the books is awesome.

My hope is that in TW3 we won't be forced to resolve the nilfgaardian invasion.

I think Geralt has plenty of chances to tell people to **** themselves and just pursue his own agenda. I saw going with Iorveth as telling Roche to **** himself, and going after Triss as telling Roche/Iorveth to **** themselves.

There was no option to play neutral in TW2 and that is what i missed from TW1.

I think in TW3 we will be able to play more neutral and also follow the road we want so i am very happy the way CDPR is going.

Geralt was neutral after the Scoiatel attacked the convoy in Blood of Elves? I don't think so. The best part of that book. It showed how biased Geralt can be when pressed by dire circumstances.

LOL

Congrats to CDPR for all the kudos.

I thought Roche's act 2 had a lot of politics, but maybe it's not as evident because you're in a military camp rather than in meeting rooms.  But Henselt dealing with his men and with the enemy is also politics.  Dethmold as slimy advisor is one of the more entertaining sets of interactions in the game.

What do you mean by neutral? Geralt was dragged into a conflict, but I don't think you were really forced to buy into the cause. Henselt hires you for unrelated stuff, and with Saskia you're really siding with your companions. 

[slimgrin]

Offering the neutral path ALL of the time can seem contrived. In any game. I think CDPR realised this while writing the plot points for TW2. Everyone wants to have options, they want to role play and have player agency no matter what. But this is contrary to how CDPR designs their games.

You know, I can accept that...but that sounds like a complaint certain Witcher fans here (not you) have for Bioware.

I've leveled that complaint against Beth, Bioware and CDPR. All three. IT'S A TRAP!

I felt better letting Henselt live and hearing the brief discussion Geralt and Roche have afterward. But the squeaky hinge comment got to me on my first run, so I let Roche gut him.
