    Game is impressive, you can see the step up from witcher 1. I was stunned as a kid of the world cdp created. This whole series needs a remaster to be put in one new edition. Let new generations enjoy witcher as it should be.

    There's not much to say. It's a very successful game and still has good looking graphics. The gameplay is also much better than the first game. You are missing a lot if you haven't played it.

    One of the best RPGs of all time! I can't believe the many choices that completely alter the entire game! You have so much freedom and the game reacts to your difficult, grey choices. Almost no other game does what the Witcher 2 does. It's soooo good!

    Excellent sequel!
    The story and characters are still great. The graphics are amazing. And this time the combat system is MUCH better than in the first part. Combat is fun and challenging, not irritating and boring. I also believe that smaller, more filled locations are better than The Witcher 3's open world.

I've been through this game for a long time. The developer is the Polish company CD Projekt RED based on the series of novels "The Witcher". On PC, this game was released on May 16, 2011. We are all gamers, we perfectly remember part 1, which blew everyone's head off, with its coolness and quality. And I'll tell you right away, I won't torment you, the second part turned out to be worthy, no worse than the first. We start the game, also for our handsome, witcher Geralt from Rivia.

    According to the plot, everything is pretty cool and interesting, in the middle of the game it can change, depending on which step, action, development you choose yourself. Initially, Gerald will be framed by a mysterious killer who had "witchy" eyes. He will kill King Foltest, and Geralt must regain his honest name, unravel the confusion, and find out why he was framed, and why the real killer needed it.

    A series of strikes have been finalized, combos have become much more beautiful. In general, the whole game has changed and has become significantly better. Well, as for the textures of the game, some objects in the distance are also poorly visible, and the developers did not waste time and megapixels on them. Although this does not affect the beautiful picture as a whole. There is a lot more of any abomination in the second part, which allows you to pump Geralt much faster. We can also choose how to upgrade our character, and I paid special attention to magic spells, I really like them.

    Based on everything written, this game deserves these points. Rarely when the second, third parts are better, but here we see a real rise, despite the fact that the first part was super. I advise everyone to play and get into this game, but I advise you to play both parts in order to know who you are playing for. And I almost forgot, not in the cut-out game, in the original, there are scenes of a bedding nature, and I would not advise people under the age of 18 to play. The Herald character really fell in love with gamers, and if you haven't played this game, know that you missed something, and it's something very cool and worthy of the time spent on it.

    Como RPG no defrauda, y esque cuenta con un sistema de habilidades muy bien hecho, gran variedad de efecctos de estado, mejoras de espadas y armaduras, entre otras cosas.

    Aun con todo esto, me gustaria destacar 2 aspectos mas: 1; Las decisiones influyen un monton, cosa que hace muy rejugable al juego. 2; Tine una gran cantidad de misiones secundarias, y estas son muy buenas, teniendo muchas un monton de cosas ocultas.

    Como tal, un ggran juego, y si tuviese que destacar algo malo seria que hay varios bugs frustrantes, y cuenta con una curva de dificultad muy aleatoria.

    A very good surprise, really liked the graphics, considering it is from 2011, the style of combat and voice acting. The choices you make in game trully matter and you can choose to play as a real witcher would. It lacks some diversity of monsters and to me it was too much about game politics and a bit too complex in the begining for me that haven't read the books or played the first game.A very good surprise, really liked the graphics, considering it is from 2011, the style of combat and voice acting.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Pros:
    I liked the Combat System and Storyline. I can feel that I am really fighting. Character development feels good. Choices make difference in the game.

    Cons:
    Default camera FoV (Field of view) creates motion sickness. Camera FoV can’t be adjusted. There’s no key-binding in the settings menu. When we change perspective to fight with different characters, instinctively I want to dodge roll but I can’t. As a result, I got confused whenever that happened. Sometimes NPC gets stuck on the doors. When the sorcerers are about to teleport I can see their teleportation position for a split second. System sound can’t be adjusted while playing the game

    Great storyline. The world is not black and white, the choices can be difficult and a lot depends on them (other side characters, other cities). Characters can be very interesting. The controls were made for consoles. This is my opinion and I was incredibly surprised - it is much better to play with a pad

    This is my opinion and I was incredibly surprised - it is much better to play with a pad than with a keyboard and a mouse. The game does not properly use what is the biggest advantage of typical PC control, i.e. aiming with the mouse cursor

    More than a worthy sequel for The Witcher.
    A big improvement in this game is the combat, much more modern and fast, but it is very punishing and the biggest problem is that Geralt has a wide range of animations for fast attack and another for strong attack and the game decides which one to choose RANDOMLY! That means getting hit because the animation chosen was not the one the player

That means getting hit because the animation chosen was not the one the player wanted.
    The fact that you can import your decision from the first game to this one is SO F****** COOL! Makes you feel that you impacted the world and now is just following the story that you began, it really feels amazing.
    The story is a great mystery with a lot of thing to discover, and twists to unravel, all in all a very good story that feels grounded in this universe but still it is not as memorable or as good as the first one. It's definetely not bad, grandier and with more worldly impacts but less personal in a sense.
    The music and sound keeps the same beat (hihi) as the first one. The voice-acting in this series is top notch and every character feels himself in this universe.
    The graphics are the second biggest improvement, with more money to spend after the first one the team could focus a bit more on this aspect and makes this game a lot better to watch and appreciate.
    The biggest improvement is definetely just a well rounded more polished game, a lot of risks were taken in the first one, and a lot could just barely be done to be noticeble, in this one all of them were continued and had much more time to develop, the details of everyday life or simply what already exists and will keep existing after geralt are what makes this universe so appealing.

    Many people think about The Witcher 3 and sleep on this one. This is for sure an absolutely masterpiece. Solid combat, great sidequests, very good story and characters, great graphics for the time, superb soundtrack, very well detailed world( despite beeing small and linear), this game is so much underrated, it deserves much more appreciation.

The only problems I have with the game are the interface, which is hard to navigate, and the hit detection is kind of weird, but the latter is quite easy to get used to.

    Overall it is a brilliant game.

    Witcher 2 is much better looking than its predecessor, the story is very complex and can go in many different paths, and the characters are great, but because of that the game was made pretty short. If you play two or three times to see more endings it's a full length game.

    Después de jugarlo en su momento, un año o dos después de su salida, fue el primer juego de la saga The Witcher que jugué y a pesar de ser tosco y difícil para mí en aquel momento me gusto mucho su trama y lo que podía llegar a ser su sistema de combate en The witcher 3.

    A día de hoy he jugado y completado al 100% esta segunda parte y solo puedo decir que me ha encantado aún más, es cierto que el juego en ciertas cosas es tosco y se hace difícil y que muchas veces no te facilita nada, ya que te explica lo suficiente para continuar y poco más, pero ahora habiendo jugado a muchos títulos del genero, habiendo jugado a The witcher 3 y controlar mucho más de RPGS, he de decir que esta segunda entrega esta entre mis favoritas de los RPGS.

    Tiene decisiones que repercuten en este título y en el siguiente, decisiones que en este título cambian completamente tu run, ya que literalmente este título son como dos juegos. Según el camino que elijas vas a jugar una historia o otra, con otros personajes, ciudades, misiones y no es a pequeña escala, es completamente de locos lo que cambia según el camino y las decisiones que tomes. También hay gente que ve esto como algo malo, para completarlo al 100% tendrás que hacer diversas partidas, eso es cierto, pero es tan distinto el contenido y se siente tan bien realizado que aparte del inicio, si tomas el camino contrario al que pillaste en la anterior run literalmente no vas a jugar el mismo juego, asique puedes considerarlo como una expansión o como realmente se plantea en el título: "¿Que habría pasado si hubieses elegido este camino distinto?".

    El juego esta muy bien, es más corto a cambio de muchas más opciones y cambios en todo, pero la verdad esque las secundarias, ciudades, principales, items... están bien hechos sea el bando que sea que pilles, no hay nada que este menos cuidado ni nada por el estilo.

    Buen juego, tal vez un poco difícil, pero muy buen título y buena opción para iniciarte en la saga The Witcher.

    The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings was not the biggest hit back in 2011. While it garnered sales and praise at its release, it hasn't been consistently mentioned like other games from that year (Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, Batman: Arkham City, Battlefield 3), which is unfortunate, because the game is really good.

While it garnered sales and praise at its release, it hasn't been consistently mentioned like other games from that year (Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, Batman: Arkham City, Battlefield 3), which is unfortunate, because the game is really good. This game is impressive even still to this day, with some caveats, obviously. But something the game succeeds immensely with is the immersion into the world. It feels lived in and like it could exist in a real place (ignoring the magical factors). The huge trees surrounding Flotsam, the warm beaches and mountains of Aedirn, and the ravished ruins of Loc Muinne creates an inviting motion to the surroundings. The music also helps invest the player in the world, which is bombastic during battle, and hauntingly somber during conversations and slower moments. Even though the character presentation is at best decent, the environments are truly epic, which also translates to the story. The intriguing narrative is focused and ambitious, yet clever and self aware. Playing as Geralt of Rivia hunting down the assassin of King Foltest, Letho, is riveting from start to finish. The story is so good much thanks to the characters. Geralt of Rivia is an all out bad ass, while Vernon Roche is a cunning operator. Dandelion brings in comedic effect with his funny remarks and King Henselt brings in darkness with his tragic family drama. Even the side-quests have some level of depth, not always being as straight forward as you might initially think. The game is based around you the choices make, which unlike most games actually have huge impacts on the narrative. You might never see certain characters or view people differently depending on the actions of Geralt, and it helps make your actions have more weight to them. Even though the ending might occur in the same place, the journey there and the character's positions might differ hugely. The writing is immaculate and impressive, captivating the player and not making the narrative too hard to follow. The only confusing part might be character's names if you haven't played the first game, but if you read the extensive journal, you'll be quickly caught up, and stuck in the game's politics. The only big issue I have with the story is the final boss, which fizzels out disappointingly, however you choose to play. It neither feels rewarding, nor impressive, but that's solely because of the build-up to that moment (during the epilogue). But that's a small nit pick, because afterwards it feels satisfying, and worth the time to get there, it's more about the build-up to the fight. When it comes to gameplay, it's a bit of a mixed bag. All the content is existent, from responsive combat, to dialogue choices, to preparation before battles (from potions and oils), it ties in with the character of the Witcher really well. The problem arises when it comes to execution. Character's might bug to actions, your character get's stuck in the environment sometimes, and brewing portions and oils is confusing at times, much cause from the questionable user interface. Even though the game world isn't massive, it could've helped with fast travel when traversing back to main areas, or level design could've been improved to make it go faster. I don't hate the gameplay, I quite like it actually, it's just rough around the edges and there's room for improvement. The game truly shines in it's writing and world-building, which raises it above some of it's rivals in the genre. The game just sucks you in, and keeps you engaged all the time. While the game lacks in polished gameplay, it makes up for in interesting character's and the interactions between them. It might not be Skyrim, but it's still damn good and worth your time. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. El paso hacia adelante que dieron en el aspecto grafico lo dieron hacia atrás en cuanto a calidad de la historia, es buena no digo que no lo sea pero, sentí que le falto ma contenido por agregar, el juego se me hizo mas corto que la primer entrega, y honestamente se siente como un DLC de cualquier otro juego del genero, 3 Capítulos de la campaña principal y misiones secundaria, no repetitivas pero, bastante pasables, no suelen aportar gran cosa pero para avanzar te sientes forzado a hacerlas (al menos en dificultades altas). Me hubiera gustado que incorporaran personajes secundarios del primer juego, pero parecer que los dejaron a un lado junto con todo el reino de Temería. Me gustó que incluyeran otras escuelas de brujos y hagan mención de los recuerdos olvidados de Geralt, pero no todos ni los mas importantes. En general este juego me dejó un sabor agridulce, buenos gráficos pero siento que se desvió mucho de la historia del primer juego. Expand

    Основной сюжет в этой игре мне всегда нравился больше чем в 3, он здесь как то целостнее и насыщеннее. 3 больше сайдквестами берет. Что невероятно задушило меня при прохождении, так это локации, особенно лес рядом с Флотзамом.
