The Quen sign (the aura shield spell) is imba. I was able to transition from complete witcher noob to good (by my standards anyway) because of this sign.
Basically, my strategy for combat while hostiles exist for all of the game (except the Kayran and dragon fight) is
1. Cast Quen
2. Hack, slash, dodge
3. If Quen's comes off go back to step one
Inventory management is the worst of all the modern games I have played.
No sorting for junk. Junk is stored randomly. Unlike DA2 where there is a magic button triggered in merchants to sell all junk. Simplifying that experience is important because sorting junk is not what the game was made for!
Looting is awful too.
UI response is slow.
The game requires an uber imba PC from hell to run. It only run at 30-50fps on my machine.
Sexy time is more liberal but sort of repetitive.
I did enjoy the playing the game. The main motivation is the intrigue with Geralt of Rivia's story if anything.
