That's the greatest aspect about the combat in a game like this. I mean it may have its fair share of faults, but you can actually use different ways/tactics to slay them beasts/hoomans and experiment with various techniques on the fly. 
There's the Geralt who likes it easy and uses rolling and Quen all the time, and there's the one, almost masochistic, who seeks for more challenge and likes to parry/dodge instead, limiting rolling and avoiding Quen like the plague.
A proper stamina bar would have been the cherry on top of the pie, but alas it's a privilege that only horses can obtain.

From what I've gathered if you hold down the dodge button you roll but if you tap it you do more like a pirouette dodge which is shorter distance and more cannon than fucking rolling around on the ground like a fucking spaz like in Witcher 2.
I really hope they improved the combat so it isn't like 2, I even liked Witcher 1 combat better and it wasn't great.

Nearly 3 hour long Q&A from that Gopher guy who made the good videos a few days ago.

I'm not going to watch it myself, but somebody else said he mentions town guards knock you out instead of killing you. Then they rob you and dump you in the wilderness.

I'm sure there're more but that's the only other one I can remember that is open world and has good combat. That said, no idea if it's better than Witcher 3 combat since none of us have played it yet.
*edit* Dark Souls 1 and 2? It's sort of open world and action RPG, maybe? Well, it's perhaps not open world like Skyrim/TW3 but still. |
I don't really disagree with you. Amalur's combat is pretty good because it has tight controls, but let's not forget all the weapons had like 2 special moves only, no tactics required, and it was all just reflex in blocking and rolling.
Souls games have good combat, but a lot of that comes from the tension. I'd say Bloodbourne is the one that really nailed it as it has more effective combos and charging attacks.
But really the point I was trying to make was that open world action rpgs really don't have good combat in general, and TW3 is looking good because it seems to have all that you really need. Tactical, reflex, tension, variations with the crossbow, daggers, bombs, traps and sign. Also it is the a newest game with up to current day standards animations, that really helps in action games.

TW2 combat wasn't all that different from Dark Souls, but it had a lot less depth, and DS had a more robust char system too.They can easily take a few hints from DS and incorporate them into their open-world games: make all attacks use stamina, and then tie stamina and regen to stats - voila, that's already much less brainless than Skyrim et al.

The weird thing is when they did the initial unveil at E3 (or wherever it was), they said based on feeback from TW2 that they were going to heavily crib from Dark Souls to improve combat for TW3. It doesn't seem radically different from TW2 combat though from the videos I have seen.

PS I think they should kill you once they've robbed you 2-3 times already.

So like Mexican law enforcement? Or do they just kill you the first time?

The last 2 are the same tavern from different angles but the first picture has a different one. Plus the lighting in the first one is from
candles and the last 2 is from fire torches.
1 and 2 are still amazing.

 It's no wonder people can't agree on anything
The original shots, all of them, including the reveal video, REEK of atmosphere. As I said, the new one looks sterile, as in very clean cut and gamey looking, very much unlike everything we were originally shown. |
Third person sounds wise. You should listen to him. 
But no, I see what you're saying. It doesn't look atmospheric at all. You have any pictures of the original tavern?
@Vurt: Yeah, that's true. Actually reminds of TW1 in that SS.
1 and 2 are still amazing. |

I've always found that if the graphics are good you dont even notice them.
Bad graphics can pull you out of the game but games like witcher 2 even, the screenshots look soo good but then when i play i forget all about it.
I think thats where the entitlement comes from too, you think if you dont notice they're not good enough which is sad.

Funny thing about those old tavern screens, that was back when CD Projekt said "and it's still running on the old renderer. Just you wait until you see how much better the new renderer looks!"
