So – final verdict on Witcher 2:

Too short. Even after doing most of the side quests, it was still just too damn short compared to the first one by a LOT.

The ‘god mod’ definitely helped a lot with combat, thankfully, so I wasn’t bogged down by hour long battles like I would have been (and no, that’s not why it was shorter – by the time I got half way through the swamp quests in 1, I was only fighting when I had to because the combat was incessant).

Storyline – I saved right before the end and got to do both the Roche & Triss endings. I eventually will go back to my save right before siding with Roche, and go the Scoia’tael route, but will probably wait until closer to time for 3.

Anyways – Game was good. Graphics, and voice overs a lot better than the 1st. I liked the story on both, equally, but the storyline on second seemed much more fluid & planned, instead of disjointed and kind of crammed together.

I am very much looking forward to the 3rd, though.

The Peter Capaldi guyfrom Torchwood was also in the Fires of Pompeii episode with Karen Gillan. They can’t pull two actors from the same ep to have major roles… that would be too much.

I was saying the same thing earlier. I am REALLY hoping they don’t go that route. While I think he’d be amazing, and I wouldn’t mind if it were *just* the Pompeii episode extra, having a recurring role in Torchwood kills any ideas of him being the Doctor for me.

So apparently Peter Capaldi is currently who everyone is expecting to be the new Doctor. I have an eeeensy problem with this: he played a recurring role on Torchwood already. It’s one thing to have a minor background role that’s unimportant in an episode and then get a major role in the Whoverse. But it’s an entirely different animal to play the same role for several episodes, and then to get THE lead in the Whoverse.

I have no doubts he would be an excellent Doctor, I just don’t like this whole “use the same people” idea :-/

Just finished The Witcher.

Of COURSE I’d get interested in the story when there’s only 1/4 of the game left.

I kind of had the ending pegged at the point in time when the game got interesting haha. Goddammit, I play too many games and watch too many movies XD

Anyways – I liked the game enough that I’m dying to play the 2nd – especially since everyone said it’s amazing compared to the first.

A few minor gripes: I HATE grind zones. Seriously. I haven’t liked them since FFVII. I also am annoyed by grind quests. If I want to play those types of quests & in those types of zones, I’ll play WoW. Also – if playing on normal, and you make shit 1HK you (when it really shouldn’t be because you aren’t some lowbie schmuck) there’s a goddamn problem. Luckily, that was only one fight, but goddamn was I fucking PISSED after having to redo the fight literally 12 times (and I only died once during ONE actual boss battle – it was that goddamn sewer lair monster with the tentacles that fucked me up a million times).

Also – wish there was more character development. I liked the level of detail for Geralt, but the rest of the characters were kind of 2-dimensional, which was disappointing. I’ve heard this is rectified some in the 2nd as well.

Ended up REALLY getting the hang of the combat system, though I feel the 2 non-specialized weapon slots were useless and just got in the way, except for the ability to use a torch.

Overall – would recommend, but not to gaming newbies. There’s definitely a learning curve that could only really easily be overcome by people who are used to playing lots of RPGs and action games.

If you believe in psychics and the human “soul”, cool, that’s your thing. But for the love of glob – DON’T try to say not knowing how GPS works is some sort of proof that psychics and the soul might be real – just because you “can’t see it”. WE DO know how GPS works, and just because *you* don’t, doesn’t mean the rest of the world is in that boat.

Seriously – if you feel the absolute need to try and prove the existence of these things, AT LEAST STOP SOUNDING LIKE AN UNEDUCATED DUMBASS WHILE DOING IT. It just makes me weep for humanity.
