Actually, I haven't played TW1 in quite a while, so I don't know how many orens I had, but after getting a quick refresher from some internet searches, there's noooooooo waaaaaaay I had the 420-something THOUSAND orens that it's starting me with in TW2.

Seriously, I start with over 420,000 orens ...

TW2 savegame import brings over your ORENS???

Started up TW2, imported my TW1 savegame, and I have all of my orens from the first? This feels so much like cheating, I'm extremely tempted to not import my savegame.

Does anyone have any insight as to just how broken this really is? If good items cost tens of thousands of orens, I won't really ...

Stuck at "installing redistributables"

Trying to install my copy of TW2 and I've been sitting at "installing redistributables" for about 20 minutes.

I searched everywhere I could for similar problems but couldn't find any. Any thoughts?

Witcher 2 censorship?

Anyone happen to know if The Witcher 2 will have the same kind of disparity in censorship between the United States and British versions?

I had to buy the British version of the first Witcher to avoid the extraneous American censorship; I'd like to avoid it again if necessary, but I don't know if ...

Yeah, bad reviews very nearly stopped me from playing it. I hated the timed responses because I don't play RPGs to see how I'd respond in a situation - the "do what's instinctive" doesn't appeal to me. I want to play an RPG to do something different and explore other possibilities. I often want to ...

Heh, yeah I remember Keldorn being mostly about duty and very narrow-minded. The opinion I formed of him was that he was a bit of a "lost" individual. Fortunately, without spoiling anything, his personal story involves helping him "find himself" so to speak.

I had no idea he left the party if you ...

Good game. No one playing it?

I'm surprised at how few people *seem* to be playing AP. The Gamebanshee crowd strikes me as this game's target audience, yet this forum is super dead. I'm playing it on PC and have yet to encounter any major bugs, and really only one crippling design decision (timed responses - really?).

Anyway ...

Looking for good RPGs of old

So, I've exhausted the 1990s - 2000s market of RPGs, and there's virutally nothing on the horizon (save The Witcher). I'm 23, and I didn't get a computer until like 1995, so I know I missed out on some stellar RPGs.

I've done my research, and I think I've heard of a lot of ancient titles, but help ...

Turn off Mouse Acceleration?

Well I just got Deus Ex because I've heard so many good things about it. I've searched other forums and tried to google an answer, but I can't seem to find any way to remove the horrible built-in mouse acceleration. I've played a lot of FPSs, and none of them with acceleration turned on. Unless I'm ...

I have this exact same problem. I too have the most current patch and unofficial patch. Is the unofficial patch the problem? Does anyone know? This is a real game-breaker, obviously.

Bad level bug

I'm leveling a scout from 6 to 7, and I noticed when I'm distributing my skills, I only had 2 to distribute instead of the usual 4. Then I saw that, for some reason or another, all of my stats were normal before and after the process, but during the level up process they were all 8. So I'm getting ...

-9 is pretty low for a melee fighting intensive character. If you haven't given him items to improve his THAC0, you should try that first. The manual has tables for THAC0 progression, but if you don't have the manuals you ought to be able to search online for them.

I remember my fighters (like ...

FT is fatigue, or how much stamina your attacks drain from your opponent. Drain them enough and they may fall unconscious.

NP is noise penalty, or how penalyzing this armor is when you try to sneak around while wearing it. You want a SMALL (or nonexistant) noise penalty. A negative number means ...

Oh by the way, I even tried "notarget", but to no avail.

Three times through without drawing any attention to myself. Again, no cautious stances, no eye contact, no words, no nothing. Talked to Imalia - turns out I'm a worthless idiot.
