QuickTime Events will be yet another innovation. This technology will take Geralt's confrontation with bosses to another level.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

No, the regular combat is a rhythm game, not a QTE. It's funny though that they actually added in what many people falsely accused them of having in the first game's combat system.

Ironic, isn't it?

It's like they made that presentation just to feed the skyway.

I actually like the subtitle.

But it looks so-so. I bet the new engine removes lots of the original game's wonky charm.

And please spare me the blood on the screen camera effect...

Routine AI sounds good, though. Looks like they redid the charming UI, unfortunatley.

More like, Gschegosch Bschetchischtschikiewitsch, and even that isn't really spot on.

What wonky charm? I didn't think the first game's UI needed to die in a fire, but it wasn't amazing either. IMO, if they can get away from using Aurora, it'll be for the best given how shitty, inefficient and overall horrible Aurora is (even if their modification of it is the best to date, compared to Bioware's own permutations and Obsidian's). Even people who hate TW should at least concede that making Aurora not suck was a Herculean feat.

It doesn't look or sound like they are doing much to improve the combat, which was one of my biggest problems with the original. I'll admit that QTEs are a natural progression of the original's rhythm-based combat, but they are progressing in the wrong direction for my tastes.

But it's still possible that they are overhauling the character development and quest design. They wouldn't talk about that sort of thing in a pitch to publishers.

Nowhere else will a topic about a game transform into bickering about the Polish language. I love the codex.

This reminds me, as a kid I never understood why we don't replace sch in German with š, ch with an x and so on.

Horrible kid.

Jasede, what do you think about the fact that the Witcher 2 is now introducing a Simon Says style minigame system in its combat?

Looks like W2 will follow the tradition of having reasonably talented artists, writers, programmers AND NO GAME DESIGNERS WHATSOEVER. THE OFFICIAL AGE REQUIREMENT FOR PLAYING SIMON SAYS IS 7.
