About changing the voice cast for the expandalone to SR3, not a lot of people noticed (or cared?) that Shaundi's voice actress changed from Eliza Dushku in SR2 to someone else in SR3... Not making any judgements, just pointing it out.

Well, considering Shaundi had no real point for most of SR3, I don't think most people cared ;)Originally Posted by FunnyB
I think this is why I don't get on well with the game. I'm all for there being some challenge and thinking required when it comes to planning a build, but in TQ it seems like you have to nail it from the start else you're fucked.
My archer/hunter character did seem to be built better, but in going almost to the end of Egypt I realised I wasn't really enjoying the game. So I think TQ just isn't for me.
Alright Severance, you're fun, but I can only deal with so many skeletons in one level before I get annoyed. Especially when my last save was 20 skellies ago, and the traps are so, so mean.

Go Amazon not Barbarian.
Severance remains a beautiful, beautiful game, and one day I'll even master the bloody dwarf even though I still have no idea how.

I quite enjoy my Barbarian, especially the fact that the animations seem to have been captured from baseball players rather than any actual swordfighting style. I definitely missed two of the runes, so I'll try the Amazon on my next playthrough. The sometimes-bastard difficulty and enemy repetition are kind of making me want to put that off, though... Didn't stop the damn thing from keeping me up all night.
Yeah, a common complaint with the game. I was having similar issues with it when I did some gamefaqing and immediately my understanding of it improved immesuarably and was suddenly enjoying it. You COULD play it with whatever build you want but in a poor piece of design that only works when you know the game inside out so you know exactly what you're doing. Its very old school rigid that way.
Well, Shaundi's whole character changed, from chill stoner to vengeful fury. The voice change was fine since she is basically a totally different character.
Anyhoo, decided to continue with my The Witcher 2: Enhanced Edition playthrough.
Got a better idea of how the game works now, but I'm seriously lamenting all of the changes from The Witcher 1. Well, most of them anyway. I miss the flow of the combat, the easy-to-navigate UI where you didn't have to exit one thing to open another (you could just switch).
The graphics are pissing me off, though. Got most special effects turned off so largely it looks okay, but the textures are all over the place. Characters tend to look really good, but you get objects with textures that are so over-detailed that they look absolutely terrible (e.g. the metal banding on Iorveth's chest). Animations are a bit stiff, sometimes hilarious (such as that scene where Roche/Foltest/Geralt walk up to the closed portcullis in the prologue and their animations are *exactly* the same). So, for all CDPR's attention to detail, there's a metric fucktonne of oversights (e.g. the 'hole' in the back of Ves' head).
The stealth sequences is broken to fuck, but I don't know whether it's a subtly different choice I made or whether it's due to the EE changes, but that sequence seemed different to me - the scene with that lady being whipped and abused didn't appear - but it flows a lot better from then on. There seem to be new cutscenes too, which really do improve that intro sequence a lot more. But why 3 art styles? What possible need is there for that?
Grumble, grumble, moan, moan, it ain't as bad as it was when it released but I much preferred TW1:EE (at least so far).
Depends on if you saved Aryan La Valette (mouthy prick on the tower) or not.
I killed him both times IIRC.
I think it's also possible to miss the lady being whipped just by not going to that part of the dungeon - it's possible to walk right past it. If that's not it then I have no idea, maybe things changed.
Who knows? It seemed 'different'.
Maybe I did something different. I dunno. But I liked it this time.
All part of the fun in Games With Consequences. Last time I played it I saved Aryan, which was fun, and the first time I must have walked past the poor woman and some slamming door stopped me going back.
Hm. Maybe. I dunno what I did different. Wonder if there'll be less boobs in the EE.
As Confucious said: "There are as many boobs as you go looking for."
And those that are thrust in your face anyway.
I think that was from Descarte.
I'm dying a lot in Diablo 3 on Inferno difficulty (which is way too hard). Also trying to hold back the Red Army in Panzer Corps Grand Campaign '44.
Dead Island, which is a vastly more entertaining 2 player co-op zombie game than Left 4 Dead ever was.
And of course, Hegemony Gold. God I love this game, and this screen shot will sum up why to anyone of like mind:
