In case anyone was still interested in picking this game up at a bargain, there is a steam sale this weekend on Witcher 2 for only 6.79 USD. I never played it so it would seem that now is the time as I've heard pretty much nothing but positive reviews.

I got the game but the minimum settings are way too high for my system. I can play the game but at like 3 fps. . I guess I'll have to wait ~1 year for when I get to build my own computer. It looks really fun, though.

I hope you don't try to run it on a Crapbook? Most important thing: Dont enable Übersampling!

this game is very demanding, it helps to deactivate ambient occlusion and set the texture memory size to large at least.

Nah, I have a desktop but I've been having problems with my gpu recently. I'll try it again with higher texture memory, I had everything on the lightest settings except that setting because I thought lower would be better.

Didn't change anything.

Maybe tell us your system and we'll tell you if you should have more than 3fps...

OK people the full combat rebalance mod is out. For those of you who never experienced this in the Witcher 1, the mod was so good they hired the guy who made it to be a part of CDProjectRed. He has now made a mod for the Witcher 2.

I played for about an hour and I love it, the combat is so much faster and more fluid than the last time I played it. I don't understand the parry mechanic yet though and blocking would have been confusing if I didn't read in advance that it looks like a spellcast instead of a weapon block now.

I accidentally deleted all my old game saves some time ago, including the Witcher 1&2 ones. Naturally I want to replay them in preparation for the third part. Are there any great mods I should be aware of?

omg this looks freaking perfect.
I just started playing witcher 2 and this seems to fix pretty much all of the big problems that I had with character development and combat. Thanks for sharing!!!

Saw this at the bottom: Removed mashable quick time events. Single button QTEs that can end with player’s death can be disabled from game options.

It's not Projekt RED who's behind it, but yeah, removing QTE's is a relief. I'll probably try playing through again myself, even though the game doesn't have the best of replay values.
Theres a fine line between fishing and just standing on the shore like an idiot.

The other amazing change is 7seconds to --> 2 seconds from combat to noncombat so you can interact with the environment. Before it was like playing fucking Chrono Trigger on the ps1

i would prefer a light edition that only changes combat animations, not half the gameplay and balance.

I finished TW2EE in DM. It felt pretty easy, only a few narrow places made some opponents hard to fight. I heard this tweaks made the game even easier. Now i gotta wait the witcher 3, my bet is late 2014! So long!!

I just played through the game (after having started it 3 times and stopped) and realised I lost an item in the chest between chapters. Which was needed in crafting. Is that fixed in the mod mentioned above? That and fully remaking the combat system almost makes me want to replay it the other route.

Mini review in spoiler, but felt it didn't add anything.
+ Show Spoiler +
So as a mini review I would give it 6/10. Good graphics though I didn't like the art direction. Somewhat fun combat system for 10 minutes, passable story, a lot of backtracking for side quests. Good sound. Some bugs remaining even after 2 years of patching, getting stuck in walls, game crashing, items disappearing etc.

Somewhat immersive environment, biggest complaint I had was the sex scenes (played too many games in that genre I guess), either ignore them fully or develop them more. The choices did matter more than in most other games on the plus side. Another thing was in a sneaking event you were instantly killed if discovered, while if discovered later you could fight your way out?

Oh and locked doors. I can throw fireballs or blast out walls. But I can't burn a chest or open a door. I can accept walls not being breakable since they havn't made the content, but doors or chests...

I think the combat system is really bad. I feel pretty much forced to roll around like a giant prick, can't really block because that saps my energy - not rolling though, that's ok!

It feels even more silly when my opponents can block me.

I'm soo frustrated, I like the story and the conversations but the rest of the game really is pretty shitty sometimes.

Combat in this game is kinda terrible. You see your sword go through enemies but for some reason you only damage the one you were targeting. You take tons of damage from enemies but enemies barely take any damage, despite the fact that you're supposed to be a swordmaster with superhuman reflexes and skill.
