Grumbler, ME2 is really far superior to the first one, in plot, characterization, and combat.

Did they do more than ten models for the other people you meet in the game?

Supposedly.

They ditched the fighting styles, though, and the tiered skill progression.

grumbler, ME2 is one of the best RPGs I have played on the computer. They have created a great sci-fi setting, and the NPCs, plus the various small and large alternatives the story can get are great. (there are like 700 sub-plots taken over from ME1, ie. the decisions you made with your ME1 character influences ME2 story and NPCs in a LOT of ways)

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

Somebody needs to photoshop Geraldo and Geralt together.

Since you and Scip agree on this, I will have to change my mind.  I'll keep an eye out for the sales.

This.

Oh, and I broke down and got the new Witcher as well. Firing it up now.

I agree on ME2.  I think it's probably the best action RPG of all time.

Witcher 2 is OSSUM graphically.  Combat is very action clicky, sort of Soul Calibur-esque or even Tomb Raidery (lots of roll dodging all over the place).  Parrying and riposting is quite difficult.  Much easier for well-timed single shot take downs, both for you and the enemies.  Ouch.

I'll wait a while.  The first one was fun, but I ended up hating Whitcher Gerry.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

The dragon in the prologue is kicking my ass, I can deal with the soldiers well enough but after clearing the first group that overgrown lizard roasts me every time.

I must say that the tutorial section of the game is the worst I have ever seen. I've lost count of how many times I've died, I wonder what the regular game will be like?  :huh:
