So far I am very impressed with this game. The great is obvious.

There are 2 things about the game that could use work.

1) The creepyness factor from Witcher 1 seems to be gone. Night and the caves are too bright. The mosnters are well rendered but just aren't very creepy the way chapter 1 of Witcher 1 was.

2) The control of Geralt seems to be quite choppy desite smooth frame rates. This is especially true when casting the Aard Sign. Geralt casts the sign at an enemy and hits, the enemy is stunned or falls, and Geralt just stands there non-responsive until the enemy recovers from the Aard effect. I am not sure if this is by design or a bug, but it makes signs pretty useless.

you're supposed to go and attack them after they fall down from a sign. the default key is left mouse button

hope that helps.

The second thing you say about the Aard thing it could be a bug. I can always attack at the same time that I'm doing Aard, like Q+Leftmouse (Aard+Quick attack). With that I can hit the target at the same time that I hit him with the Sign. Is pretty nice move.

But yes, sometimes Geralt respones a bit laggy, like when you're just standing with full Vigor, you press E and the parry pose doesn't show up for a few seconds :S

I consider wandering round in the caves pretty creepy if you are using Cat.

Seeing all the insides of the monsters in silhouette seems a bit more unnerving. =D
