I'm currently playing the first witcher (The Witcher) and while I find the game, the story and the characters as well as the choice and consequence are top notch, I really really don't like the (twitch) combat. Click on the enemy, the monsters, or human enemies, untill they're dead. Combat is fast, responsive, and action-oriented - just like the combat in DA2. (why people get angry over the combat in DA2 while it is nearly similar to the one The Witcher, I really don't know...)
And I actually found The Witcher's take on loot refreshing, as I did with the monster-slayer Geralt. There was a reason why Geralt did not have many outfits as he, as a slayer of monsters, leads a simple life. And Geralt really only needs 2-3 swords to fight the monsters and enemies he needs to find in the game, The Witcher.
The art direction, the lighting, the buildings, the visuals are all done beautifully and with great skill. It is clear to see that competent people did work on this game, Witcher 1.
And the story defies the usual tropes when it comes to elves and dwarves etc. - DA: Origins tried to do the same, and succeeded somewhat, but not like in the first Witcher game.
