This is deep, uncompromising and powerful gameplay which, despite the enhancements and expansions, is still going to look incomplete to a lot of people. It doesn’t have motion captured gestures, spangly super-special graphics and so on – these are the kind of things the uninitiated might say.
Frankly though, those people are missing the point. The Witcher, enhanced or not, isn’t about the graphics or the fluidity of the gameplay and just because you can switch the game to play from an over-the-shoulder perspective doesn’t mean you should. This is a game that's about getting pulled into the fiction, meeting the characters and learning how far your moral rules can be pushed before you draw the line.
The Witcher: Enhanced Edition is a definite improvement over the original release, both in terms of content and performance. It runs a lot faster, plays a lot smoother and loads a lot quicker.
That said, it isn’t a game we can recommend for everyone because the vast number of gamers are likely to be put off by the huge game world and complex mechanics. If you’re a serious RPG fan though, in the mood for something that’ll give you hundreds of hours of gameplay and plenty of twists, turns and lingerie along the way then The Witcher: Enhanced Edition is a definite must-have.
