Dhruin do you know anything about the min specs?
I think it's sensible for anyone with concerns to wait to see comments. I have it pre-ordered -- which says a lot because I've played it -- but then again, I haven't played the whole thing, so anything is possible. Don't take a preview as a final review.
Finally. It's been a long time coming. Is this still on for the 26th in the UK/EU?
I'll never stop playing games I've already requested to be buried with my computer fully loaded with the best CRPG's. The problem is getting a decent power source to my coffin. J/K LOL.
Regarding the Witcher, I'm sure they wanted to get it out for Christmas. They want to make some money for their efforts and their release time couldn't be better. As long as the game is stable and reasonably bug free, they should sell a lot of copies, IMO.
Jabberwocky I get the feeling that you are overanalysing his words a bit now. Most of those press releases are just bs anyway.. I belive my own eyes and those dozens reports all over the gaming sites. Judging by the videos witcher feels and looks like a game for my taste. I'm going to buy the game at the relase day just to show my support (and ofcourse because I can't wait to play it! )
