The only issue I got with the game? I don't have it right now to play. As for Jeff, the guy is very jaded with gaming right now and basically seems to enjoy easy to pick up and play stuff that doesn't require a lot of time or effort.

CDProjekt said there'll be a bunch of mostly cosmetic free DLCs coming out after release, right? Will probably have to install Galaxy so I don't have to check my GOG library every day for new DLC.

Someone was just streaming a French version of witcher 3 on twitch. I could never get in to tw2, mainly because of the kb+m layout and the confusing interface. As a total newcomer to the series, it's also a little daunting to understand all of the terminology for symbols and attacks and such. After reading kotaku's review of TW3, and seeing a few minutes of this stream, I'm going to have to play this. What's the easiest way to understand the main just of what's going on, and not feel completely overwhelmed in the first act of the story?

As per the controller thing: I've done three playthroughs of W2, the first two were with a keyboard and mouse, and third, which I just finished was with a controller. I'm now a believer that the controller is simply superior.

Using the controller with Witcher 2 worked great, but I remember the radial menu not working like a radial menu should. Instead of pointing the stick directly at what I wanted to select I had to move the stick up and down to select the sign I wanted.

I got Far Cry 4 for the PC which I play with a controller. It is nice sitting on the couch in front of a huge TV and have aim assist in it. Well my 660GTX was not up to the task of running it on ultra so I upgraded to a 980GTX. It runs really, really well now. The fun part is that I was looking for more PC games to play with a controller and the Witcher was recommended. Luck would have it that the Witcher 3 comes with the card and hearing that it plays really well on a controller is just gravy. There goes my spare time......

Instead of pointing the stick directly at what I wanted to select I had to move the stick up and down to select the sign I wanted. I don't recall, because I used voice commands for signs. Which is, btw, basically the best thing ever. Screaming out signs and having them used while your hands focus on regular combat mechanics made the fighting system much better (and made signs feel worthwhile, given that they are typically viewed as weaker in Witcher 2).

Man, I LOVE the m/kb controls of witcher 2 and most any other game. I couldn't imagine playing it with a controller. I own a PS3 and m/kb is still my preferred method. I'll play Devil May Cry and poo poo with a controller, but Witcher? Nah.

Man, the reviews are positively glowing. My preorder was set in stone months ago but it's nice to know that my trust wasn't in vain. Looking forward to playing next week.Drifter posted:Man, I LOVE the m/kb controls of witcher 2 and most any other game. I couldn't imagine playing it with a controller.

If the Dualshock 3 is your go-to controller, perhaps that is why you don't like playing with one. The DS3 is rear end, get a DS4 or an xbox controller.

My favorite controller bug on TW2 on the PC was that the camera would spin around Geralt after entering doors. That never got fixed. It's going to be weird playing 3 now...

Still, you should at least try the other controllers I mentioned because the sticks on the DS3 are really loose and bad. So are the triggers. It's fine for 2D stuff and fighters because the d-pad is good but not for games like The Witcher. I got used to it eventually but it's a definite downgrade compared to your other options.
