Well damn, good thing I started to save up for the CE half a year ago.
Not a fan of statues, but that medallion. Finally!
Agreed. That statue is well made, but I've been wanting that medallion since Witcher 1 was released.

This game has high waifu potential. Curly long hair vs redhead, the only right choice is the third option. ![]()

God I hope not (I'd hate to see that creepy subset of fans pollute the discussions surrounding what is sure to be an excellent game with the posting of questionable fan art and obsessive fawning).
It's inevitable. I've steeled myself infiltrating anime groups and webcomic fandoms, barely anything can surprise me now.

That's why the three is in that option.
This game is going to be amazing.
That is all.
Seeing the new trailer makes me wonder how much Dragon Age Inquisition could have changed if it was next gen only, perhaps the next installment maybe but Witcher 3 looks jaw droppingly gorgeous
To even compare the EA turd that is Dragon Lame to the amazingness of Witcher should be punishable by internet time out. Dragon Age couldn't carry Geralts empty bottle of liquor. Dragons Age is trash compared to Witcher.
This game is going to be amazing. Shame that DAI is cross gen and wont be able to reach its full potential, Inquisition doesnt look nearly as good.

Some people suggests that DA2 got a more adult story than Witcher 2. I curious in what points? ![]()

The old CRPG mechanics have never sit with me .. it's boring, slow and not in the slightest way fun.
@Pateu I think there's a difference between a game's combat being not-too-difficult to get the hold of quick and one that is unecessarily frustrating for the sake of being frustrating, because it doesn't allow you to pause, and its control set up is so confusing that it becomes jarring. I never got the appeal of Dark Souls -- There's a difference between a game being difficult, and one that is just being unfair for the sake of nipple twisting the player every 5 seconds. But that's just me. I want games to be fun while still retaining somewhat of a challenge. Like God Hand -- A game that offers fully customizable combat controls and combos, while also being challenging and requiring the player memorize every single move, dodge and block mechanic.
I played Witcher 2 and I don't recall the dodge roll being a complete safe way of getting yourself out of combat unless you play on easy.
I admit without guilt or shame that I f*cking loved raping the space bar to roll around them bastard peasants xD
I can deal with both. My favourite combat in any game would be from the Infinity Engine and DA:O. But I do love me some fast-paced kick-assery from time to time :-) the Witcher 2 provided me with all the chaotic bloodshed I wanted ![]()

Zombie mom? Yeah, I dunno.
I think this was the fastest preorder of my life. And I'm glad I did it, since Amazon.co.uk has already upped the price since last night. I need that CE.

Both games have mature stuff.
The difference is Witcher handles it a lot better and more frequently: violence, swearing, torture, rape, politics, racism, and etc.
Witcher is pretty much on Game of Thrones level, Dragon Age is like Disney with few mature stuff here and there.

Origins was better than The Witcher 2, at least from a gameplay and RPG point of view.
The Witcher's an action game with RPG elements more than it is an RPG with action elements, not to mention the combat which is rather dumbed down.

Aaaaaand I'm still squeeing over Tywin.

What has that got to do with anything?
I think what Turian meant was that the Witcher handles story better than Dragon Age. And it does in a lot of ways.
But then again, Turian didn't have to go all out guns blazing and proclaim that Dragon Age is trash, because it really isn't.

Does it really?
I found it rather generic.
Not to say The Witcher 2 isn't a great game. It's in my top 3 RPGs... but it isn't Mass Effect, nor Dragon Age Origins.
I used it often during some of the nuttier stuff like those black demonic things in the caverns early on, and the letho battles. I wouldn't call it a save-all move, though.I played Witcher 2 and I don't recall the dodge roll being a complete safe way of getting yourself out of combat unless you play on easy.
If you'd asked me about Demon's Souls back when I played it, I might've agreed with you. FromSoftware emphasizes learning the moveset of your enemies, or otherwise learning from one's mistakes. Because of the difficulty curve early on in the game, it's not going to be for everyone. TW2 does this to a lesser extent, and you can certainly experiment with all of Geralt's abilities and whatnot. I usually stuck with the bubble shield and aard.I never got the appeal of Dark Souls -- There's a difference between a game being difficult, and one that is just being unfair for the sake of nipple twisting the player every 5 seconds.

Don't want this to sound like a jab at BioWare, but to me they're not that good at making full use of an engine's capabilities.
I'll take CDPR's modified NWN-engine over the ones DA 1 & 2 used any day of the week.
Do hope that Inquisition proves to be better than its predecessor though.
Dragon Age isn't trash but i personally didn't like it either, i never found the story interesting, most are characters where not to my liking and and it just wasn't fun to play (i dislike DA2 much more though) so i guess for most people it's either a like or dislike game.
Witcher 2 is better than Mass Effect and way better than Dragons Age.
ME1 is a good game, really good, but it has a ton of issues.
Witcher 2 really doesn't have any issues. I mean the 3rd act is a bit short and more linear than the other two, but.... Isn't that what happens when you get near the end of a narrative arc.
So.... Yeah.

The dodge is imperative in group fights, the Kraken fight, the dragon fight.
Simply because you can't parry in this game repeatedly ( since vigor disappears ) and that an upgraded dodge gives you better mobility than running does ( and on Dark Mode both the Kraken and the Dragon oneshot you if you don't have Quen on ).
Witcher 2 really doesn't have any issues.
You serious?
Let's start with the combat being overly reliant on dodge and how the upgraded dodge is an I.W.I.N. button, not only making you impossible to hit but also making you faster by spamming SPACE instead of running.
Or the annoyance of having to drink potions before combat.
Or Quen.
Witcher 2 is better than Mass Effect and way better than Dragons Age.
How so? The combat in both DA and ME is superior. It's tactical and requires thought. Meanwhile, The Witcher 2 consists of keeping Quen up and dodging until you can slash at them or waiting for the Vigor to recharge so you can throw igni.
The RPG elements ( companions, different endings, the sheer number of characters ) are much better.
The only thing TW2 does better is graphics, which for an RPG player shouldn't be that much of an issue.
