In these past few weeks, I have been playing a lot of the Witcher 2. It is a good game, and “good” is the most I can give it at the moment. I am not that far into the game and I feel as though this game has loads of potential. The problem is that the Witcher 2 is not performing at its highest potential. The Witcher 2 has its highlights such as a deep story and stunning visuals. The game’s story is actually based off of a series of books published years ago. So far, from what I can tell, it is an incredibly rich universe and the developers have done a great job adapting the stories into a game format. That being said, I’m completely lost. It might have to do with the fact that I stopped playing this game for a few months, or it might have to do with the fact that the story is presented in a way that is a tad overwhelming and I am inclined to believe the latter. The fact that this game is a bit hard to follow is definitely a turn off. Other than that, the only other problem I have with the game is that it often throws the player into dead ends, or situations where the player cannot continue. Of the few hours I have played, I have already come across two of these (the first was the reason I stopped playing and the second one I just came across before I wrote this). It is incredibly frustrating. To show an example, the one I just came across has me locked in a room where I only have the options of paying a guard, or being killed. Of course, unfortunately for me, I don’t have the money, so really my only option is to die or revert to an older save. Like…what? This isn’t fair. I could easily revert to an old save, even though I really do not want to, but the point is, a game should never put the player in these kinds of situations.
