I'm glad you didn't do this, because my immediate reaction when you mentioned Gwent was "What the fuck is Gwent?" |

Lol. Yeah well I'd explained it a bit more in the original but it got to the point where it was somewhere between satire and a review and managed not to achieve the purpose of either. Might appeal to those who knew the game already but, tbh, what would they be reading a review for anyways? Actually, and this might seem strange coming from someone who started a review site, but I have no idea why people read reviews as it is. I certainly don't. I suppose that's why I've been concentrating on board game reviews as I do read them and use the gameplay vids to determine whether it's something I'm interested in. Suppose people do the same fo video games yeah? |

After the excellent prologue and the part in the forest with the elves, the direction and dialogue drops significantly in Flotsam. I loved the scene that introduced Foltest -- how he's standing alongside the quivering emissary and explaining how ballistas can't hit the same point twice. It says a bunch about him without spelling it out. Then you get to Flotsam and characters are talking about other characters like they're reading from a Wikipedia summary. That execution scene was a joke, and I wish you could fail it so Zoltan dies. Fuck drunken Scottish-accented dwarf characters. They are never good. Still early going, but I played for an hour just now and found it really tedious. Hopefully it's just a bit of necessary worldbuilding and the storytelling will improve. |

I guess the universe doesn't want me to play this game. First I downloaded it through GoG Galaxy and the game wouldn't unlock properly. Then I downloaded it manually through the site and now I get an error halfway through installation saying I don't have enough space on my hard drive, even though I clearly do! |

When you downloaded it through galaxy and wouldn't unlock properly, was it downloading a final 320mb, but kept randomly failing? |

No it would fully download but display "release in less than an hour". I preloaded it and it showed that message until about a week after release so I gave up and downloaded it manually. |

I find it difficult to cast spells in battle because I have to take my hand off the mouse to reach over to the numbers. I get that I can set a spell to Q but I like to use multiple spells. I like the combat, but I find that when I get attacked by multiple enemies I have to evade them until there's an opening, land a couple of shots, and roll away. It's very defense oriented. I really need a sword upgrade too because I'm barely scratching enemies and I'm still only in Flotsam Forest. |

Yeah, I remember doing a LOT of rolling in the 2nd game. 3 seems to have the best balance in combat by a long way for me. What signs do you use the most? I can't remember what it was like in the other games but Axii is really good. Can't beat some good old fashioned jedi mind tricks. |

I'm using all of them, really. The fireballs are a decent long-distance attack when I can't get in close, while I like to use that staggering one on one enemy and attack another while he's dazed. I should probably parry a bit more, but it's troublesome when there are multiple enemies coming at you. |

I've had a new problem appear out of the blue: the game crashes if I try playing in fullscreen. I'd been playing on fullscreen the whole time, and I've done nothing on the computer between playing the game and trying to play it again. |
