The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings

Finally, I'm not feeling like a mature woman playing with her children's toys! This game treats you like an adult, sentient being unlike Bethesda's works. Amazing immersing non-linear story where your choices MATTER. Highest re-playability since there are two totally different main scenarios in which you can still do things in a very different way. Thankfully European countries are not sexuophobic *clears throat* and sex is treated as it should be: a part of life. The game has technical issues, a messy inventory and an almost useless map on the xbox 360 version, but I don't care, I'm finally feeling like my intelligence is RESPECTED. Many don't like the combat system but I enjoyed it, a good mix of strategy and action.

the game is full of bugs and I don't understand how it is possible that the game has lag if it is not an online and/or multiplayer game. for example the game does not charge or gets very slow... it is not may computer as I actually can run withcer 3 properly. aslso the action start before you have the posibilty to use the comands.The camera and controls in general, are just unbelievably bad. It is clumsy and unprecisly, makes it a little difficult to loot sometimes, some fight combats looks a bit ugly because of it, and it is just enoying that you run around/running into things and people like a confused animal or something. don't waste money better just go to see the movie

Game takes place in 1271, one year after the first game. King Foltest has appointed Geralt, who saved him from an assassin, as his personal bodyguard. The king is also at war with his mistress mary louisa la valette. For those who are new to the RPG genre, I recommend you to read the tutorial section of the game carefully. The tutorial will give you clues about the mechanics and gameplay system. I don't recommend skipping it if you are new. There is also a playable part of the game called "arena" outside the main story. Here you can develop Geralt with various monsters and bandits and take on challenging fighting tournaments by taking followers with you.

Those who played the previous game may find Witcher 2 a bit complicated. Because the fighting mechanics are very detailed this time. Everything has been made much more difficult, for example, you need to be skilled to use things like melee combat, potions, signs, bombs, traps, etc. Efficiently against your opponents. Gameplay changes include strong and weak hit combinations, the elimination of potions during combat, the ability to meditate without needing a campfire, and a quick select button for spells and traps. You just need to press CTRL to access this area of the game and there is joystick support as well.

As for the graphics, the character modeling, environment and landscape designs are close to perfect for the era the game came out. I can say that they still look good even today. However, you will need a powerful system to fully enjoy this experience. For some of the experimental graphics settings, you need to have a system above the recommended system requirement. Don't forget that if you have a finished save from the previous game, you can transfer it to Witcher 2.

However, you may encounter some of the choices you made in the first game and some of your old items may appear in your inventory. Compared to the first game, Witcher 2 is a much better action role-playing game that challenges you with visual quality, new twists, new surprises, a more immersive story and gameplay mechanics. It is a must buy and must play. The game offers an average of 35 hours of gameplay.

A good game nearly ruined by inconsistent difficulty and frustrating or unreliable mechanics. It has sadly contracted Xbox consolitis (on top of the first game's already mediocre controls). You may have to mash a button 5 times before it registers. Many quests and scripted sequences are convoluted and confusing, leading to excessive trial and error gameplay. Often I had to trawl forums and wikis for help. Combat is more difficult & realistic but some fights seem far too difficult, as if the difficulty setting randomly changes. At least TW1 was consistently too easy. But despite its flaws, this is an atmospheric game set in a detailed believable world, that continues the great story of Geralt of Rivia. Absolutely worth getting in a steam sale, but you may want to play it on 'easy' even if you are an experienced gamer.

This game was released in 2011, so they could have done something clever to include representation in this game, however, they continued with dominate representation. The combat was slightly interesting than the first game. The graphic was okay. The story is still dull and forced these representation. The romance is forced. I expected to see something different. These representation like an old broken game which we see them dominantly on every video game. I wanted something different in these type of games. Even if the story is in ancient times or past, they could have done something like a game called Dragon Age. I noticed some bugs in the game. I still do not understand the crazy worship maybe because of the dominate straight and white population in games.
