This is a great game. If you're reading this review, then buy it. I guess people complaining that it takes a while to load are using really slow computers. They also released several patches, so maybe their game isn't up to date.
It will tide you over

It's a cross between NWN2 style fighting with some button mashing elements in it. Load times suck. There is a lot of dialogue and running around which can get tedious at times. Real time fighting works out okay although the controls are a little clunky. Otherwise decent story, good voice overs, good music and the graphics are fair to middlin.
Nothing new in this review

I'm just adding my stars basically. The product review is pretty accurate, and the reviews here are pretty well representing of the game. I've really enjoyed it, and despite a few things that took a while to figure out and the game being too easy on normal difficulty, this is one of my top 5 favorite PC RPGs. It really is good, and the story is actually engaging most of the time.
FUN, KINDA, NOT REALLY, GETS OLD FAST

I played this game over a week or two period of time and maybe it's just me, but this game get's boring after a while - kill some dogs - run here, run there, kill some more dogs - and yes it is funny at times and has a REAL GOOD STORY but that is the limits of it - I experienced none of the "bugs" that some of the others had at all - game played flawlessly w/o patch. If you liked Oblivion, then you will definitley like this game.. I tried to like Oblivion but it was about as boring as this game. So take this review for what it's worth. and expect alot of running from same place to same place over and over again until you get sick of it. i was try to do all the quests though so that might make a difference. overall - not a bad game - not a great game either. play hellgate london instead.

This game really blew my socks off when I played it the first time. It took a little adjustment after playing MMO's for a while, but once I got into the swing of things, I love it! The mature rating is justified but it adds a different, darker side to games that I haven't seen in a while. I especially enjoy where you make choices and have to live by them later on in the game. Graphics are superb and the storyline really keeps the game interesting and going all the time. I'd recommend this to anyone who can appreciate their "darker" side and enjoy a great RP game!!The Witcher

The computer I used was low on power for the game but it played very well.
Witcher is a fun RPG that is full of adult content. It's the frist game I've played that I felt was for someone my age(44).
great game. wish i had a better video card though.

to sum up,the story,graphics,and rpg facter into an impressive game. right up there with oblivion. i love the adult content that alot of games wimp out on.some of it is downright funny to hear the npc use the f word out of nowhere.the mix of melee combat,alchemy,and magic is very well rounded.the story is very gripping,i continue to plod along to find out what happens next.now for the bad. this game is relativly demanding for your pc's graphic abilities. if your video card is older(like mine is) be prepared to play on bare bones settings.also,dont install the new update for it as it tends to make the game crash during loading screens.which is another slight problem.the game takes forever to save/load.no multiplayer here either.other than that it would get 5 stars.a must have for pc rpg gamers.
Fan F*ckin*TAStic!

I've played dozens of games, preferring RPGs and Action. This title, once you get past the initial cinematics DELIVERS on a par with Baldur's Gate 2 and Planetscape.
Hilarious foul-mouthed dialogue, thought-provoking moral dilemnas, kickass action and intriguing puzzles.
The innovative fighting system and character advancement totally rock.
This game is a classic - not to be missed!
Best Single Player PC Game I've played

This is the best single player PC Game I've played. I'm now looking for more like it. Storyline is awesome, you can choose 3 different paths; Either with the non-humans, the humans or to be neutral. Lots of bloody swordplay, lots of side-quests, even some adult situations.
Only two slight downsides to this game. One, all the nudity is covered up in this version. Uncensored is only available outside of the US (unless you order it from someplace else online, but I love amazon's free shipping so I settled for censored version). And two, you can whip through this game pretty quickly. I did so the first time; then played it a second time using an online quest guide to help me get every side quest done that I might of missed the first time I played. But overall, I'd say it was a very awesome game.
