Yrden is one of your signs.
Drop a yrden, the kayran will go to strike, dodge the strike, kayran gets stuck. Hack away

Also, there are two tentacles that cannot be cut off but will smack you. Stand still near the edges to attract the tentacles that can be damaged.

You have to use Yurden to trap the arms one at a time and hack it off, when you get three down, you ride the last one and hack hit, the ground glows where you can trap an arm, then when you are thrown off run to the left side and up the downed rubble to finish it. duck and roll is your friend, after an arm comes off the fricker will strike a lot for a few seconds. it's the hardest fight in the game and they put it in chapter 1, go figure. the ground

The Witcher 1 EE was only 9.99 on steam so I picked it up. Usually playing the 2nd game before the first makes the first suck. Who has played 1 and what are your thoughts?

I freaking love this game. I'm not very far into it (just killed La Vallatte and met the Scoi'atel) but this game is even better than skyrim so far.
It's a constant struggle to decide whether or not I want to play this or minecraft

I agree for the most part, it isn't quite the open world that Skyrim is.

I fired up Witcher 1 tonight and was worried about the graphics. From the intro I am not worried anymore. They know how to do gaming cinematics normally I skip them but I watched this to the end.

Finally picked up this game.
Could possibly chalk this up to a lack of experience, but the combat feels just as cheap as dark souls. Possibly more so.
I'm getting ripped to shreds outside of flotsam.

In the unpatched, non-enhanced edition of the first game, the hellhound at the end of chapter 1 was by far the hardest fight in the game. I think I killed it with about 2 hp left.
I think the first game still holds up well. I replayed it a year ago and I enjoyed it. It held my interest enough to finish it again.

Combat is the hardest thing to get down, but once you do it's fine. About half way through act 2 there won't be many challenging fights, but that in no way takes away from how good the game is.
I've played 1 a bit and at the beginning of act 2 get's tedious and I stopped about half way through. I have it downloading now and will make another run at it. The game is very fun it's just that the quests got a bit long.

There is a lot of useless running around in the first one. Group style silver/steel ftw
