    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!

    Thanks to that part of the game, because I began the fan of all series. Since my childhood, I hadn't been satisfied with the old Polish tv show - The witcher. But after finishing Witcher 2 the game I read all the books, change my opinion about the TV show and played all the games related to this. So personally for me, it's the beginning of the Witcher universe!

    8.5 / 10 ❤️ - Very good

    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    8.5 / 10 ❤️ - Very good

    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    … Expand

    Перехід на сучасніший геймплей (клік клік перекат клік), графіка на той час дуже пристойна.
    Дуже класний, інтенсивний сюжет, який як на мене нагадує DLC Кам'яні серця до 3-го Відьмака.
    Проходити мінімум 2 рази, так як половина сюжету йде 2-ма різними шляхами. Ну і Трісс Мерігольд, яка попала на обкладинку Playboy!    Перехід на сучасніший геймплей (клік клік перекат клік), графіка на той час дуже пристойна.

    After playing the Witcher 1 I moved on to Assassins of Kings and had a great time. The story is interesting and fun like the first game. The graphics are what made me enjoy this more than the first, the game mechanics are amazing and much more smooth and appealing. My biggest problem with Assassins of Kings is that it felt a bit short and ended abruptly.

    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.

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

    Undoubtedly the worst of the trilogy, but the simplicity and console-esque gameplay were kind of refreshing after the rough swordplay of the first installment. Probably the first game which gave you the possibility to go two completely different paths, eventually giving two games in one.

    I found this to improve immensely on the last title. The quests were fun, the Characters made you feel for them, and for the story kept me compelled. This game is not without it's faults, the combat was kinda rudimentary, and the load screens are very frustrating. Over all a very good game. 8.5

    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    … Expand

    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.

    Отличная РПГ, но, по сравнению с первым Ведьмаком:

    - Локации меньше - Монстров две с половиной штуки - Квестов меньше - Персонажей меньше - Время прохождения меньше - Появились дебильные QTE для приставочников Из плюсов: - Графика лучше - И самое главное!!!! Можно менять прически Геральту!!! Урааа!!!    Отличная РПГ, но, по сравнению с первым Ведьмаком:

    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.

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.    … Expand

    Although the controls and some of the game elements are a bit dated by todays standards, the game still absolutely holds up. Visuals are still quite good, and it has an immersive story with great replayability.

    Um dos melhores RPG's da história, tem uma história interessante e excelente, gameplay desafiadora que exige que você use todas as ferramente de um bruxo, neste ponto me agrada mais que witcher 3

    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.

    The combat is pretty bad but I love the characters and the main story, and especially the different choices you can make. The antagonist is really cool and the atmosphere in this game is AMAZING.

    The Witcher 2 com certeza é um belo jogo.
    Havia jogado apenas o 1 e pulei direto para o 3.
    E posso dizer com tranquilidade que em questão de história, narrativa, sidequests e personagens esse é o jogo mais interessante da franquia. O jogo é fluido, belo, com diversas resoluções, com o melhor do RPG que pode se esperar de um jogo The Witcher.

    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.

    The Witcher 2 easily stands amongst the big boys in the CRPG crowd and is also the best Action RPG to come out since Mass Effect 2.

    The Witcher 2 offers awesome sword fights, cool graphics, charming characters, a compelling story, lots of bare skin and a decent shot of vulgar conversations. Damn good.
