The second entry in the Witcher saga is characterized by an incredibly gripping, mature and challenging non-linear plot.

Our Verdict: Regardless of some occasional wobbles this is one of the most ambitious, darkest, and legitimately smart additions to the genre you'll have the luck of playing. Just get yourself a bloody decent PC.

Interesting views, as I have read these whilst my account went AWOL. Witcher 2 for me personally was a great experience and had everything that I liked about it. The combat is ok as it did get you...

Boooo-urns. Glitcher 2 does not deserve that placement. Having persevered and finished the game (reluctantly), I can stand by my opinion more than ever.
