Thanks to Dr. l2ec0nizzer Ph.D I enjoyed a damn friggin cool action/fighter. I really like fighters so it was cool to have one on the PC, although AC is very simple in comparison to a real fighter.
The game is very easy to play and there really wasn't any difficult parts at all except for maybe the very end...and the end is pretty interesting - a little different from most but totally hints on the next game in the series. AC2 is in the works and looks super similar but with some enhancements from what I have seen so far....Anyway cool game...

I thought it was very very pretty and had a good amount of fun climbing and jumping and so forth. But the story lost me early on and I had trouble keeping my interest going when I really didn't know what the hell was going on.

The story was a little confusing and understanding the very ending is a big puzzle that doesn't need to be solved but you can if you want. I couldn't solve all the pieces but it was definitely different than other game endings.
There is magical stuff at the end - like real magic such as mind control, teleportation, levitation, and some other crazy stuff that I didn't expect at all.
Is definitely an easy game to complete though.
I think the best thing about it is the fighting and the rag doll physics and the physics in general. Looking forward to the next incarnation...

Ok so...started playing the witcher...and it's horrible. I can't go from amazing multi-dimensional combat to whatever it is that you do in the witcher that is referred to as "combat." It feels totally dated like pre-dungeon siege level. I mean we didn't have the greatest of combat but it was better than TW.
I didn't realize how amazing the combat is in AC - being able to climb and jump off stuff in addition to excellent multi-foe combat is hugely rewarding in terms of game play. Geralt feels like a ridiculous rigid skating spinning guy that can only do a couple of sword attacks and misses most of the time versus actually feeling like I am fighting. I can almost forget AC is a video game because the movement is so natural. It would be amazing to see a game that uses combat like AC with the usual RPG story stuff - it would be incredible.
