The Miscellaneous PC & vidya Games Thread

I couldn't stand The Witcher.  I own The Witcher 2 but haven't even tried it.

I got Shadow of Mordor right around the same time and what little time I have had for video games lately has mostly been going into that.  I have that on my PS4 though, not my PC.

GOG offered Witcher 2 for free last winter.

I couldn't get into it.

[Norgy]

Never got into them.

The first one, I played for some time, but like grumbler, I gave up on the sequel after about 30 minutes.

You can slate Bethesda for strange bugs and some poor quests, but I'd rather replay Skyrim again.

At least with bethesda, you get mods and those can make up for a lot of the disappointment with the base game.

To me, Skyrim is still one of the best games released, and that has to do with the mods. The replayability increased a lot.

I played Morrowind and Oblivion to death, and I hope for a new TES game some time.

Got The Witcher 2 in 2011 but like many others couldn't get into it. Then Skyrim came and I forgot about it. Tried the enhanced version and I finished it a couple of days ago. Loved it. One of my favorite games and I'm definitely looking forward to the third one.

Did the enhanced version get rid of the QTEs?  Those were the absolute worst:  boring and stupid, and yet essential to continuing the game.  I quit when i ran into the boxing QTE.

No and I agree those were the worst. I skipped the boxing quest because of that. Still there were a couple more QTE's throughout the game. The worst being the Kayran fight. It could be worse but a damn shame they added them.

I don't expect them to be in the TW3.

Is GalCiv 3 any good?

Good, I hated the QTEs in Witcher 2 too.

A part of me wants to get AGEOD "War to End all Wars".  The other part of me says, "Are you stupid?  AGEOD is company with contempt for all human life and they make games to punish humanity for it's hubris in thinking you can have a deep playable war games.  Admittedly it is an improvement over their previous WWI game where they were unable to tell the difference between "West" and "North"

Beeting a dead horse I see.

Yes.
