Will I be able to choose "over the shoulder camera" like in the first Witcher?I know that there probably will be automatic camera angles during the fights, that's OK, but I really would like the over the shoulder camera view when just running through environment. In my opinion it's more cinematic when the main character is not exactly in the center of the screen. Also I liked a small shakiness of the camera when running.It's a small but noticeable thing. 
@PCMaster: You will have to choose an enemy you wish to attack. At later stage of your character development you will be able to strike more than one opponent at once.As for localisation of extra content: I do not know yet, you will have to ask me this question in a few weeks@Mettrinker: Final system requirements will be announced before the game release. We will do it as soon as we can.@Netopier: Witcher 2 will be a very mature adventure, all of the elements you've mentioned will be in the game - you can bet on it@MichGen1200: There is a default behind the back camera, but you can rotate it around Geralt.

Are you considering to release a demo or not at all? Thanks and Kudos for the great work so far...
Szypek's marvelous FAQ says, "Demo is plausible – after game’s premiere."People, please DO read the FAQ. Szypek has lovingly and painstakingly condensed a LOT of information into one place, and much has been announced already!JackintheGreen said:I dont remember now if this has been addressed earlier, but I was wondering if theres a chance we could be graced with a demo of the game, before release, say, in late April or something?

I have asked for a RED's definition of maturity, not if we have it, because I know we do.I have asked a very specific question, and I would like a very specific answer. Thanks for the answer anyway.MM360 said:@Netopier: Witcher 2 will be a very mature adventure, all of the elements you've mentioned will be in the game - you can bet on it
I just recently saw the dev video where you guys highlighted two minigames, the dice rolling (my favorite from the first!!) and arm wrestling, and I was going to ask:Geralt's walking animations (namely the "stop and go" animations) look extremely stiff in that video, have you done any work on that recently, and is that something you'd be willing to give a look at to make Geralt move about a bit more natural?
They said that people will react to your actions and unpunished house robing ends now.
I just saw the new gameplay vids at Gametrailers. It left me wondering: will facial animations be implemented in the final game or is this as good as they will be? 'Cause frankly, if that's the case, that would be a bit of a letdown. For a game that strives for immersion, it's disapointing to see npc's (and Geralt) just stare numbingly in the distance during conversation.A second question: I thought that Vergen looked a bit desolate, lacking the hussle and bussle we saw in cities in TW1. Will cities be livened up in the final game?Thanks!
No, not from the beginning. You'll have all other though.Little question about block.Will Geralt in Battle stance, block all enemies attacks although he is surrounded? And by that logic, does it matter which way he is faced or does he automaticly block an enemey who's trying to hit him in the back?BoreasMunbg said:
My apologies if this has been asked somewhere already....We all know that sex is going to be part of the game, but will Geralt have an opportunity for romance?Yes, I'm a hopeless romantic =)
Yes and there nothing wrong with being a hopeless romantic *winks and smiles*EiskaltesMonster said:
In the Prison Break video Geralt's movements looks a lot better, I think those movements in the pre beta video wasn't final. I hope so.Gvaz said:
A question for the dev ! Will we still have the additional substances albedo, rubedo and nigredo on alchemy ??Those were very handy specially on hard level.
I would also like an answer to this as well. I noticed in the Prison Break videos posted a while ago that the crouching stop and go animation is pretty good. Why is it that the running stop and go animation is so abrupt and fast? It kind of kills the experience. Combat animations look to be much smoother than I expected but this stop and go running animation is just too quick. If that gets changed/fixed then I'm sure Geralt will appear to move more lifelike. Otherwise it's kind of a pain to view.Gvaz said:
@Jackinthegreen: There is no official statement on this subject.@Orochi82: Nope, there will be mutagens though.@Exuro89 & Gvaz: Yes, we are still working on many aspects of the game. I actually saw guys working on this animation just yesterday@Johan S: You will have to block manually - there will be a special skill later in the game, after purchasing which, Geralt will block automatically.
@Johan S: You will have to block manually - there will be a special skill later in the game, after purchasing which, Geralt will block automatically.Sorry, if I wasn't clear enough. I'm not question the method how to block but rather if being surrounded would be an issue when you block. Let's say Geralt is in battle stance and enemies surround him. Will he if I choose to hold down the button and manually block, block all strikes no matter which direction they come from and no matter how many who tries to hit me simuntaneously, or will he in this situation only block the attacks coming in front of him (or the first one) and therefore be hit in the back?The reason I ask this, is that in some games you could pretty much drink coffee and watch the weather while pressing the block button and even as you're character is surrounded nothing will happen, cause he will block all attacks.MM360 said:
