Uhm, I might be wrong here, but isn't dx 11 that runs on windows 7 a superset of dx 9.0c ? I think it contains all the files that you would already have in a dx 9.0c package.

There will be some spoilers ahead, read at your own risk.

As far as I know, romance doesn't matter at all, as Shani isn't even present in TW2, and you're basically locked to Triss (that's not a bad thing for me, as I preferred her in the first game as well).

As far as equipment goes, I found that ...

I've got exactly the same savegame, with steel sword Mahakaman Rune Sihil, silver sword Aerondight (sold Moon Blade) and the only difference is that I didn't kill Ramsmeat, as I found the real culprit. Everything's done and Geralt is level 52. I'll send you a PM or something.

Exactly what the previous poster said. Letho uses Quen, Aard and Igni, along with poison (green) and explosive (red) bombs and sword of course.

If he has Quen shield up (a lot of lightning around him) just run away from him while pressing dodge all the time. When the shield is about to go down use ...

In a heartbeat. But that's probably because World of Darkness is one my favourite RPG settings and VtMB is in my top 3 favourite RPG games. Malkavians forever!

As far as what locations I'd like to visit. Shamely enough, I didn't really investigate about World of Darkness too much outside the ...

During my first playthough, I ended up with Roche, because he came across as a very likeable character to me. The only thing which I don't like about him though, is his short temper.

As far as other bits and pieces go, I've let Letho go mainly because he was keeping Yennefer away from harm. As far ...

Spoilers ahead: At that point, I got the Dragonscale armor (you can get it immediately at the beginning of chapter 2, provided you have the money) because until you get crafting materials from Draug (end boss in chapter 2) you won't meet any crafters to make it in Act 2.
Anyway, once you get into ...

Most of those endgame decisions are probably going to have consequences in an expansion or a sequel. Like letting Sile live, or letting the kingslayer go, and so on and so forth.

There's no chapter 4, the last playable part of the game is the battle with Letho, the kingslayer. I guess we'll see ...

I'm not sure how far you have to advance in the main quests (very little), but I think I have done that quest as one of my last side quests. I'll wrap this one up in spoilers as well Basically, all you have to do is talk to Ves as far as I remember, in that house up the stairs, left of the inn. Then ...

Concerning the pre-order items, yes, that's what's supposed to happen, you should get them all. I just said that I didn't restart my main playthrough when 1.2 came, so when I loaded an essentially 1.1 savegame I think I got all the items as well, oh and I just remembered, besides the mentioned items ...

Well, I'm not exactly sure they mean the same, though, it could be my lack of knowledge on the subject.

Heraclitus' philosophy revolves around constant movement, hence the fire is the symbol of his philosophy, as it represents never-ending change of shapes. "You cannot step twice in the same ...

Winning dice with the monk was, as far as I know, a limited offer for a discount on some gog.com titles which shows up in 'Extras' in the main menu. Has no impact on anything else in the game.

Further check-up on the net says that the offer's supposed to last until August, but it's apparently ...

Just checked it, yes, you can rebuy those recipes in chapter II. Haven't figured out the system yet but I'm pretty sure it's like this: Each chapter has predefined recipes and diagrams in NPCs inventories, and in chapter 1 you can have (obviously) chapter 1 recipes and diagrams, chapter 2 1+2 and so ...

I personally like The Kingslayer's new voice. It sounds kind of "badass" and DukeNukemish, and it somehow fits his massive body better than the previous voice over.

As far as the elf goes, old Iorveth's voice is better. I mean, he's one of the elder elves (Aen Seidhe, or something, if my knowledge ...

I think it's a cool act on Polish Minister's behalf, but I'd still like to see Obama's face if he ever starts the prologue. Or, it's a censored version. Besides, the dude's promoting games and gaming I could only wish our Prime Minister did that.

I still didn't exhaust all the choices and consequences in the game through two of my playthroughs, but I don't think that the Flotsam troll has any significance on the later acts. Anyway as far as trolls go (spoiler):
I've met three trolls total in act 2, one of them was hostile, the other two ...

I also agree that Gothic games are good RPGs, one of my favourite series, in fact.

And I also agree that Gothic 1 was better than Gothic 2 NotR story-wise, though the game had felt somehow less "optimized" than the 2nd part, as in terms of combat precision, turning the character around etc; felt ...

Hello, I'd just like to ask if anyone knows what font is used for npc/object names and dialogues in the game. Thank you.

I for one, killed the elves. And in situations like these, I just do what feels "right" and/or tend to choose the lesser evil. In case you don't know what happens when you let the elves take the armaments :
Coleman, an npc in Chapter II gets killed by the elves, which from lore perspective goes ...

I'd agree with Siberys with the part that a role-playing game is a game which allows you to take a certain role.

I'd also add that you are taking that role and developing it from scratch.
Someone else also said that FPS and racing games etc. can be RPGs then. I think that they can't be RPGs simply ...
