How much of an open world is this compared to Skyrim? Game looks pretty tits.

It's like this. You get dropped in a city w/ surrounding area that's filled with sidequests. Beat em all, move to next area.

Exactly, instead of being able to move about between cities, they act as hub areas.

Story, combat, quests, graphics, social dialogue, liveliness of environment, crafting system are all better.

Just my opinion, but yeah, this game is fricking awesome.

And I liked skyrim

I've been enjoying the game, but I still haven't figured out the combat. Dying is a regular occurrence for me.

Was doing the Nekker Contract quest and I can't even take those bastards down without problems. I got all the way down to nearly dead, tried running away, and stepped on a bear trap. FML.

Any tips?

I use quen and lure them into attacking me (although I had upgraded it to affect 2 enemies at that point) and countered the warriors first and then the little ones. You could also engage them, and then run away and make sure they burrow underground - then run up and drop the bomb before they re-emerge.

I had some trouble towards the beginning as well. I found this guide that has helped me get good weapons and armor as soon as possible in each chapter. Also, unlocking Enhanced Igni Sign 2/2, Footwork 2/2, and Whirl 2/2 will make your life a lot easier.

I loved Skyrim, but I'm actually enjoying this a lot more. I've even been appearing offline so nobody will bother me.

Prologue + 3 Chapters. The Chapters are pretty long though, especially if you do all the side quests. This is one of the few games where most of the side quests are actually pretty interested because most of them are tied to the plot.

True. Plus the game is two discs and I'm still on disc one, after spending the night questing in the Ch. 2 camp . ves

And with the different paths/allies/choices, ill definitely be replaying this title


Don't want this game to end

A good choice, run it on ultra and bring something to clean up the drool.
