Have I mentioned I'm looking forward to this a little?!

Looks like it's going to be an amazing game. I'm currently playing through the first game again and it still blows Dragon Age and other recent RPGs out of the water. Epic.

Indeed, tried to play Dragon Age all the way through at least 5 times and always drop it half way through due to the tedium on the game. However The Witcher I was hooked from start to finish, also going through it again for he second one :D

I am really looking forward to this, going to pre-order once I get paid (mid-month). I bought the special edition last time with all the art books etc.

The first game was really long but managed to be interesting throughout… I agree abotu dragon age, I'll start a new character and play for sometime and then get bored before the end. I have at least 3 characters that are jsut sat mid-game and haven't moved for months.

I think there is a facility to port your saved games across with the witcher 2?

Loved the first did the narrative things I liked in Dragon Age far better with some more compelling combat and loot system this could be a masterpiece
