[Slo]

Just finished The Witcher, really pumped for this one.

God damn that scar is freaky. Chicks must love gaping facial wounds.

If Liam Neeson doesn't star in a Witcher movie, I will die a sad, sad man.

 

[Exuro]

Ha that's uncanny!

You guys really need to listen to track 1 of the OST, it's amazing, so moody.

Sales show that The Witcher franchise is still very niche in NA despite all hype.

As much as I wish for CD Projekt's success, I hope it stays niche in NA. I don't want the tastes of the NA masses to affect how they develop their games. Let them sell millions in eastern europe and a little bit here, that's OK.

 

[Kaako]

Mmm, new screens.

fair enough.

 

[bengraven]

I'm assuming they are waiting for Witcher 2's sale numbers in the US before they release the rest of the books.

You actually just reminded me to preorder, thanks!

 

[EatChildren]

So, do we have any explanation as to why The Witcher 2 mysteriously vanished from the Australian Steam store? Or should I expect another needless RCing?

gog.com - DRM-free preorder.

 

[Shake Appeal]

My laptop probably can't even run this reasonably, but I am going to preorder at full price, just to support the devs, and when next I have a good PC, I will play it.

 

[AgentOtaku]

Recently got into gog.com and am really lovin' (Freespace2 wooo!) it so prolly gonna bite the bullet and preorder it there

 

[Zzoram]

I skipped Dragon Age 2 but will not be skipping this

Didnt start Blood of Elves yet but I loved The Last Wish. I wish theyd bring them all over sooner

Already preordered from GoG.com!

Is it just me or is GoG's website design just absolutely sexy?

 

[Archie]

I preordered at D2D simply because it was $36 there. I'm gonna double dip at GoG when I get the money, though.

It's very classy, especially the game shelf.

 

[FoxSpirit]

Man, Geralt looks REALLY old in this one. Bit too old for my tastes actually, not that old in the novels.

Very nice. Able to pick out some minor problems in textures and such but this is at like 4x the resolution of my monitor so I don't think it'll be a problem.

It's amazing how high rez the character models are though.

 

[Kyaw]

Of course at that resolution, textures aren't going to look as good as they do at 1080p. But in motion, it shouldn't look too bad.

 

[BruceLeeRoy]

Ha that's uncanny!

Wow really love that. So atmospheric.

damn, what an improvement

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

Holy mother of fuck the new screens and the sex scene.

Its funny that apart form Poland and the surrounding countries, Spain is one of the only countries to have all the novels already translated (and with and incredible translations and the best cover art for the books), but the game has the worst quality of probably the majority of language versions.

Too bad the amazing translation of the books was not used for the game, and that the spanish dub was horrible (and I like when the dubs are well done, like in Arkaham Asylum). Now we are going to get it only in english (I played the original like that, so I dont mind) but I suppose we will get the same not amazing tranlation. I would love if the book translator did the game tranlation here

 

[Salaadin]

This game is really looking great. I cant wait to play it.

I wonder why the books take so long to get translated. Next one was slated for April this year but has apparently been pushed back to NEXT year. Theres what? 9 books total (5 novels, 4 short story) and we only have 2...with the third so far away. It feels like theyll never come out

 

[momolicious]

The Witcher 1 did not have any sex scenes at all right? just "sex cards"
