The Witcher

[Dead Winter]

Wow. Best RPG I've played in a long, long time...probably ever. Haven't played the new NWN, but I can't imagine it being nearly as good as this.

Best story ever. El Stormo, you gotta get yer hands on it.

I couldn't find it anywhere to buy it and i tried to dl it but files were corrupted ... i heard it is a very very good rpg ...

It has its flaws like no free-roaming, unlike Oblivion, but there is so much you can do in it. The story is much deeper and you can pretty much do whatever you want. It's not a hack and slash kinda thing either. It was based on the Aurora engine from Bioware, which of course do all the NWN and stuff.

I think I fucked every single girl in that game, . You can get into bar fights, gamble, fuck women/whores/girlfriends, and the fighting system is really cool. It's a point and click kinda thing, but you have to click within certain times and he'll do tons of combo moves and such. I'd say it's a cross between NWN 2, Diablo 2, Oblivion, and a little Leisure Suit Larry. I found myself completely addicted to it.

El Stormo bought the big Special Collector's Edition box right when it was released

And yes, it's a very good game, one of the few truly great games to be released in the latest years.

I almost got that special edition thingy, but i decided to buy Crysis and the Witcher instead.

It's truly the first game that I was dreading the end instead of trying to get to it because I never wanted it to stop. I hope they're planning on a second or expansion or something.

I almost want to start all over and just do things differently this time, and I just finished it half an hour ago.

 

[El Stormo]

Yeah I had the same feeling. Shame the last two chapters were so short...

 

[Dead Winter]

How is NWN 2? Is it worth getting? I'm a really big fan of single-player RPG as well as group RPG. Can you recommend me some good ones?

 

[El Stormo]

Well, opinion is divided on NWN2. I liked the original SP campaign (it was a hundred times better than the crappy one of NWN1!), but many people had gripes with it. I liked how they gave the characters in the party a background and stuff to banter about, because the crappy mute cardboard henchmen from NWN1 were a disgrace. I'm only starting the Mask of the Betrayer campaign, and many people say it's extremely good, so if you've got the cash to spare, be sure to pick it up.
