Witcher 2

[Scipio]

Just finished it. I ended up letting so-and-so walk away after talking to him. Seemed kinda pointless to kill him at that stage.

Dude.  You fucking cruised.

Didn't seem right to kill him, he and Geralt weren't even enemies per se and he answered all of Geralt's questions.  Henselt and Síle on the other hand were....less fortunate

Anyways I went with Roche on this playthrough but apparently that means I've only played half the game. Gonna check out Iorveth next time. Who'd you go with this playthrough?

How's the length?

Not even to that point yet.  I got about 1/3 of the way through Flotsam, and I decided to go back and finish up the first game (which I've never finished).  First game still looks pretty decent, graphics wise, and I really prefer the combat, I think.  Otherwise, 2d game is so far superior I can't even compare the two.

WTF is this crap. I can't remap WASD to the Arrow keys.

[Josquius]

I'm at the end of act 1 and  I missed two sidequests which seem quite important
Didn't know the blue stripes were even there....
Trying to decide whether go back and star tfrom a earlier save...the fight with the witcher dude was hard enough....

Since I couldn't remap the WASD keys, I decided to bite the bullet and play the game with my Xbox 360 Controller. Works fine so far.

Damn game is really damn Hard. I'm in the Monastery part of the Prologue.

Geralt should be able to bash doors in. "It's locked" crap, is really fucking crap.

Why you trying to remap, left handed?

Yes. I couldn't even remap it to IJKL.

Patch 1.1 is out. The game is now completely DRM free. That's pretty awesome.

What was the Witcher's name again?  Geraldo or something, right?

Geralt of Rivia

[Martinus]

The first game had kind of a strange feel to me... maybe something was lost in translation.  I don't know if I can exactly articulate what I mean, and I wish I could because I would like to know if that certain something is still present in the sequel.

I think it suffered from a very bad translation into English from what I heard. A lot of dialogues were cut out/simplified until the "fan translation came out".

[Martinus]

Incidentally, it beats the living hell out of me why they titled it "Assassins of Kings" and not "Kingslayers" or "Regicides". Probably couldn't afford a thesaurus.

[Josquius]

Assassins of Kings has a better ring I think. Long subtitles sound...grander.
Witcher 2: Regicide sounds very common. Like Mortal Kombat: Annihilation

The first one had an extended edition that had better and uncut dialogue translations. I'm sure this one will get something similar.
