[Combat] Parrying

Hi guys,Haven't seen this mentioned before, but does anyone know if it will be possible to parry or block in combat? Or is it just dodging and attacking?

It will be possible (at least block, don't know about parrying). You can see it here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aa7cBclLrjo around 6:24

a combat system like prince of persia sand of time will be pretty immersive in my opinion... and of course if I can cut head like the old "barbarian" on amstrad cpc it could be perfect...

Ah thanks! Block is cool enough I suppose It would be nice if they had a certain range for the aerial attacks though. Like, you can't use the attacks that make Geralt leap 2 meters to the enemy when the enemy is right next to him. It looked kinda funny when Geralt jumped into the air and used the attack while the guy was right next to him. Can be seen in the same video at 5:34)

Aside from blocking parrying would be also cool. It would require timing though to give it more fun and maybe a counter-attack would be possible just after that.

Well I only played warrior within, but I prefer the Witcher combat system over that one.
