1 milion of Witchers sold

I totally missed the release and discussion on this game.. playing Fallout atm..

I am guessing it's pretty good selling 1mil copies, worth picking up ya? Maybe when it hits the bargain bin after I finish the ones I have at the minute.
 
Yeah definitly worth picking it up I started playing it again (second time) after they released extended edition. Some people belive it's best RPG of 2007.

As for bargains go and look into shops they should have sale on basic edition of Witcher which you can later upgrade to Enhanced edition for free.
 
Glad that Witcher sold a million. Hope to have more quality RPG in the future. (Notes to developers: good game does not have to be first person....)
 
Are there mods / hacks for The Witcher? My main problem with it was the interface which was awkward and that the alchemy system was so diffucult to figure out.
 
The enhanced version has some improvements for alchemy as you get separate space for ingridients and you can sort them by type now (but i'm not sure yet - I'm only in act 1 in enhanced edition :D )
 
it's a great game. I love the leveling system. good story, and beautiful scenery. Good game! highly recomended
 
Witcher is the best RPG in years.

I started again recently with the Enhanced patch (free huge patch that adds a lot of stuff). And yeah it has auto-bag sorting and separates out the alchemy ingredients, thats a lot easier now.
 
Good job CD Projekt!

I picked it up last year and it was good then but with the enhanced edition it's even better! Every RPG fan should try it.
 
Yesterday CD projekt announced they sold over 1000000 of Witchers and also put special thank you movie
I'd rather they release a special TAGES-free version than put together thank you movies, then I'd be more than happy to support their tremendous effort (and their impressive accomplishment).

It's sometimes hard to believe these are the same guys who created GOG. It makes me wonder if they really, truly believe DRM-free is the way to go, or if that's just some sort of marketing ploy (not that I don't love GOG).
 
This game was really fun. I just didn't have to time to keep playing, go get it! looks pretty too.
 
I still never got past "The Beast" WTF! Maybe I should change the difficulty.
 
Ritual of magic using the place of power before the cave entrance and then aard sign to stun.
 
They totally deserve the success, it's a superb game. And a good example of how a quality game will sell, no matter what the developers of crappy games might claim.
 
For every 1 copy that was bought 20 copies were pirated.

pictures or it never happened. Seriously though, have any proof for that claim?

I like this game, but still haven't finished it after 6 months! Need to make more time for the important things in life.

No proof, he just wants to start something.

Will be a million +1 copy soon. It's one of those games I've wanted, but never got around to picking up.
 
the game was such a great experience and it really brought me into the rpg genre of gaming. it seems like some cinematics for the witcher 2 was shown!!! I've been hoping they'd make a sequel. For anyone who hasn't picked it up and love rpgs, don't miss it!

probably because of the censorship and drm. I still have not bought it and I do want to, but I'm not willing to buy a game that as blantant censorship for the NA release. I am an adult, and this is an M rated game, there is no reason for the sex cards to be censored. It's not censored outside NA. Even the steam version is censored.

The censorship and needing a CD in the drive is annoying, but there are ways around both on the internets. Or you could just order a UK version, its the same thing minus censorship.
 
Fixing the quicksave system would be on my list too. Instead of overwriting a small set of files (say 5 quicksave slots) it keeps a separate file every time you quicksave. Since most of us are trained by the games themselves to quicksave early and often, you end up with a saved game folder that is 3x the size of the ACTUAL GAME folder... I wound up with 12GB of quicksaves on my first play through, almost filling my 36GB raptor entirely. Fixing it should be easy to do in a small patch.

If you buy initial version and later update it to enhanced chances are it won't need to check cd rom is inside.

I know that my Polish edition + Witcher enhanced edition pack doesn't but I can't guarranty it work's same way for western releases.
 
I <3 The Witcher. I can easily say it's one of the best games I've played in years....it's well deserving of all the praise and accolades that CD Projeckt Red got for it.
 
Excelent game. I bought it but haven't got very far yet. Too many other games keep distracting me.
 
Good news! I definitely have no shame in paying for The Witcher in today's world of piracy. One of the best RPGs I've played in quite some time.
