So I sided with the knights. They act like asshole right wing evangelists, but the elves act like teabaggers so fuck em.

(This by the way is by far the most interesting portrayal of elves in a fantasy genre. Much better than Dragon Age's inept attempt to copy this game.)


Yes, love the moral ambiguity.

The story has the same problem as Game of Thrones: not enough time spent on the interesting plot of politicking, too much time spent on pointless fantasy cliche plots.


I only reached Chapter 3 of Witcher 2 before shelving it to wait for the upcoming Enhanced Edition, but from what I played, our shared complaint in this regard has been fixed.

I followed your advice on leveling the fire spell and the combat is much less tedious now. Though the leveling system is getting silly. I haven't gotten a single gold talent point yet I've pretty much filled out every bronze slot and the game keeps dumping more on me. Is there some secret I'm missing to getting gold points? I just assumed I had to wait until a certain level.


Just reach a certain level. One thing of note is that monster kill XP decreases every level you take on, while quests give a fixed amount. If you plan to grind, the optimum time to do it is at the very beginning of a chapter before finishing any quests.
