I am seriously annoyed by the fight system The Witcher uses.
You have to klick on the opponent in a certain, fixed frequency, otherwise you "fail". Whats so great about that ? You can switch between two modes - fast, strong, or group for either silver or iron sword. Other than that, you have the knockback and the fire skill. Then maybe the defense skill and the thrall skill. And thats already all you ever need.
The only interesting part is alchemy.
So whats so great about this ? I think thats the simplest fight system of any RPG ever. And its really boring after a while.
