- Story/Description:
| Quote: |
Set in a world created by best-selling Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski, The Witcher combines spectacular action and an intriguing storyline. You are a Witcher, a warrior who has been trained to fight since childhood, subjected to mutations and trials that have transformed you. You earn a living killing monsters, and are a member of a brotherhood founded long ago to protect people from werewolves, the undead, and a host of other beasts. The game uses advanced graphics and physics systems for a high-powered blend of brutal action, complex RPG options and character configuration, and sweeping storytelling.
|
- Features:
| Quote: |
*Dynamic and visually spectacular action - real time combat with motion captured animations performed by a master of medieval sword combat. Ragdoll and rigid body physics, powered by Criterion’s Karma Engine to simulate interaction with opponents as well as elements of surrounding.
*Deep and intriguing storyline - interesting story full of twists and turns in a complex and coherent setting. Most quests can be accomplished in several ways. Three different endings that depend on player's actions and choices throughout the whole adventure.
*Original character concept and fantasy world - the main character is a professional swordmaster and monster slayer. Game world which is more „adult” and less „fairy-tale” than typical fantasy. The world which is not black and white and is inhabited by believable characters. |

I've been waiting for this game since 2004 I think, can't wait to see if it lives up to my expectations!

The whole The Witcher saga written by Sapkowski is fuckin great, a lot better than LOTR imo. It's a pity that these books havent been translated into English yet. Maybe eventual success of this game will change it.

Quite a few at fileshack - but I think I saw most of the movies at a swedish site named fz.se.
Btw, fileshack require you to register - but atleast you don't have to pay.

I'm very impressed with this game, just from watching few of the trailers. And yes, the combat does rock. Finally something new and interesting.

Wait a minute.

Definitely not true. As far as I know, there are only 3 short stories (stories, not books) which have been translated to English.
You can find them here:
The Witcher
A Grain of Truth
Lesser Evil
