I loved the Witcher series so far but it's a totally different style of game as it's more adult oriented material 18+ and I'm looking forward to TW3 I get my tax return normally in Feb. so I'll be getting it. 

I'll have a good portion of Nov. Dec. and Jan. to play DA:I,  Alien Isolation and Middle-Earth Shadows of Mordor which release 10/7, it's kind of good that DA:I got pushed back to Nov. I can play these 2 other games and keep my mind focused on the real treat yet to come.

As I get laid off from work from Nov. to the end of Jan. as the company I work for won't pay Holiday's so we get 3 months vacation.

 

If you are getting witcher 3 on PC, people are selling steam keys pretty cheap on ebay

I feel sorry for those that pre orded the more expensive version of the game

Just like competition between consoles is healthy, since competition prevents stagnation, you can apply the same idea here for dark fantasy games. I am happy that neither Bioware, Blizzard, and or CPR have a monopoly on this genre. However, I do wish that we would see more original I.P.s come out from said mentioned peeps. (I think it is neat that Bioware is diving into horror with that weird announcement they made through that odd email sent out. I swear I thought it was a beta invite to the KEEP at first.)

...I really do not get this obsession on both sides (yes both forums have this kinda of crap, although I find people here a lot more "polite" about it). They are both good RPGs but I lost interest on The Witcher mostly because of the homophobic posts and members that got a free pass. Also I got really tried of the constant hate for people that like bioware too, so I just left.

 

Good point, for all the bickering on the BioWare forum I've noticed that some other forums and blog discussion feeds are simply vile and awful.

 

Either the BioWare mods are doing a cracking job of keeping this forum clean of the worst of it, or there are nicer people posting here or both.

I've noticed that posters on the BSN tend to come down hard on that sort of behavior, especially when it strays into homophobic comments and the like, even before Mods sweep the whole thing up.  Its no small part of why I like it here  .

 

Sure, we get all too worked up on matters of fictional politics and ethics (not even getting into the romance threads) but most people are fairly polite about it when they vigorously disagree with you.

So... The Witcher is more action focused, it has a sort of Batman-style real-time combat system; it's awesome! There's nothing wrong with that. That's really cool! Playing a dude with a sword who rolls and stabs and stuff? Yes, sold! Our game is about a party, and working them, and deploying people into positions, getting height advantage... that's a different style. I don't see any reason why one of those styles would be more RPG than the other, or any reason why they can't coexist in the genre.

Very true, but it won't stop the whole vs things even people at red have said the styles are very differents.

One day maybe fans from both games can just get along and agree to disagree.

On the internet of things, I hope you're right.

Well said by Mike. I'm anticipating both games for different reasons. IMO, DAI has a rather unique combat system I don't see in many other RPGs. Especially one with such fast pacing you still have the option to mix it up with the tactical cam. Play variety is an important thing so repetition isn't felt and I think this is one of the more underrated aspects about DAI. You can play the combat system in several different ways. In a game like Witcher 3, you're pretty much set down a very specific path with very little variation. You play Geralt, it's all action and the only real variations you get are the path you choose for his skills. DAI has the ability to play it in full real-time with tactics governing your companions, switching between party members and managing everything or fully behind a tactical camera strategically planning actions. I think that's pretty cool and can see myself playing several different ways to mix it up in DAI.

 

It's something I feel that is unique to Bioware games and a lot don't respect it enough. I like that Bioware identified this and expanded on it. They clearly looked at their previous games and tried to merge them all together. It looks good.
