Very good game with great graphics sound and game play. I would recommend getting whether on sale or not. The game was much better than alright, I was very impressed and much more so after the 2.0 update. Don't think just get it.

Should I buy this? It's on sale right now on GoG and I've read a lot of good things about it, but wanted to know what other people thought.

Sure. You'll enjoy it if you're a fan of RPGs. It's one of the most well-polished games I've ever played. It's even better now for newer players because patch 2.0 added a game tutorial.

So I want to get this came but canyourunit.com says I don't meet the min requirements. It wants a core 2 duo 2.2ghz I have a 2.13ghz as for video card I am not sure why it says i don't meet that one. Is this game just gonna kick my systems ass? Minimum: 512 MB RAM, supporting Pixel Shader 3.0 (NVIDIA GeForce 8800 or ATI Radeon HD 3850) You Have: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650 Features: Minimum attributes of your Video Card Required You Have green_checkmark_small.gif Video RAM 512 MB 2.7 GB green_checkmark_small.gif Pixel Shader version 3.0 4.1 green_checkmark_small.gif Vertex Shader version 3.0 4.1

Unfortunately, your Mobility Radeon HD 4650 isn't enough. My Radeon HD 4870 is barely enough to run it on medium settings.

Here's the opening cinematic for The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Enhanced Edition. It'll be out on the 17th of April for PC and Xbox 360. Just like the enhanced edition of The Witcher, it'll have new animations, cutscenes, as well as new characters and quests. And best of all, it'll be free for people that bought the PC version before the 17th of April.

The CE for this game looks great and I think I will be getting it. So happy it is coming to the 360.

You'll be happy to know that they've done more than simply port it to the Xbox 360. They adapted it so that's it more like a console game which should be good news for Xbox 360 gamers. Here's a developer diary that shows the Xbox 360 version:

Wow. CD Projekt RED has added a lot to The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Enhanced Edition. It's going to be free for anyone that owns the standard version before the enhanced edition's release date (April 17th, 2012). So far, all of the DLC has been free and new content was released with patch 2.0.

My only complaint with Witcher 2 (which is similarly 1 of MANY with Fable 3), what I will call "don't leave the road" syndrome, (LoTR #1 popped into my head just now :) - "get off the road") where the game is an explorable area, but not an "open world", things like trees & bushes block your ability to travel, if you're not traveling on or within a few ft./m. of a road then you're not moving. This is something I am sure/hopeful someone has already discussed and I hope is addressed in Witcher 3; seeing as my XB1 is just hanging out since today is the first day I've put it down in favor of Xbox 360 games.

 

Note: Eventually BF4 & AC4 get tiring, and I am waiting for a good long day to complete my brothers copy of RYSE in 1 sitting.

    • For a guy who claims to hate Farage and the ignorant, gullible, rightwing racist skinheads sponsored by Putin that his lies represent, you sure are quoting them time and time and time again, mate. Denial isn't just a river in Egypt.
    • Do you live in the U.K? Do any of the people here that are against the UK leaving the E.U, live in the U.K? If not then why are you bothered? If you do live here then it is a different thing . Brexit was a good idea, should have done it years before, it was done badly, but the idea was good. You are saying the same thing as remainers do, oh we did what Putin wanted, we listened to the lies and Farage. I hate Farage and never believed most of what he said, certainly did not believe the £350m a week for the NHS. But we did pay a lot of money to the E.U and yes some of it came back, but what is the point of paying it out for only some of it to come back? Get out of the E.U, no money to them and in theory we can use the money to do things in the country. I said in theory, but our governments are a total and complete waste of space. No matter what colour rosette they wear. You and others say it was a mistake and yet the two main parties in the U.K are not looking at rejoining the EU, I wonder why that is? I was not tricked by anyone. Makes no odds now, we are out and have been for 10 years, what we need is a decent government to run the country. All they do is shout at each other like a load of kids and seems to do nothing and make this country more into a police and nanny state. Getting more like China all the time.

    • Yeah... The root of my comment, ostensibly, is how to spin the story via the actual technical merits of the solution! * Decentralized (aka federated) solution with built-in encrypted ephemeral message transport, * Transport via Relays (intermediary servers) with no message archival, * Second configurable pathway are actual email servers (if DNS records are programmed accordingly) via IMAP protocols carriage, * "Chat-over-Email" is the design pattern adopted; it can either leverage full-blown Email Server (must use the INBOX folder) to exchange all received messages/edits/reactions (so be weary of notifications overloads) [best practice is creating a separate email acct used explicitly for federated chat purposes!] or leverage its built-in Relay Server mechanism which actually resides on-device (by default but can be configured otherwise), * By virtue of be a decentralized/federated model, all other intermediary servers who may pass-along messages (while the recipient's final relay/device is inaccessible) cannot snoop on the messages due to the encrypted nature of contents. The intermediaries may, however, analyze the metadata due to the simple fact that routing mechanisms require hints for relay destinations. Unfortunately, whomever is posting about DeltaChat across socials are misleading with "zero metadata" claims -- especially when the Relays (according to their own technical documents) mandate the addition of chat-version metadata and other decorations in order to actually transport any message. -- Based on this summary, I'd prefer if they'd better dual-path message transport (email server add-in, federated relay engine) rather than patch-on email protocols to existing federated social media frameworks. They're frankensteining something rather than extending widely-deployed technology stacks.
