Its not hard at all if you know how to do it, I was thrown off by the whole wierdness and madness of the QTES in general, I have never seen one before. I was trying to load the ballista for about an hour, enemies spawing, killing them, and it never clicked that I had to hammer the left mouse button to cock it. Then it was very wierd and hard to open the gate. You don't click fast exactly, but with a specific rhtyhm and if you fail you try again. I presumed this was something similar so I attempted to use clicking and was needed in previous QTEs, while this one is a simple hold down with right mouse clicks (all of a sudden). with the fights I see w, a, s,d push them when I see them. sometimes I hit the other guy, sometimes he kills me, and no apparent system to it, totally random. I'm loving the game in general, but these QTEs are insane, they all seem to have their own unique and different rules. Game over you are dead X 100 is really DULL. Its confusing more than anything else. The dragon was effectively kicking me out of the game, so it made me very very very annoyed. As a skill reference I beat Dawn of War Retribution wave 20 with a kiting Ork. That takes a lot of skill, and I wonder how many of the posters have or could. I also beat Shogun 2 on legendary, which takes mountains of patience, so its not like I can't do something which takes 20-40 hours if I feel its worthwhile. Failing the dragon each time within about 2 seconds was just soul destroying. Stick around? Heck I WILL stick around. Perhaps not in this forum, since I have a life (its busy) but stick around with this game. Absolutely. This game is a rarely amazing window into a convincing alternative world. I'm intrigued as to where the story leads. When I'm working with CDPR I'll make sure they throw their QTE's out the window and build a world ten times as big to explore. It's good now. imagine how could it could be if they REALLY did their best! AWESOME. Why would I want to sit in here wailing about a problem which has been fixed (thanks) or even to sing the praises of the game. I have work, family, this and other games to play game reviews to write job hunting presentations to send, women to seduce, and mountains to climb, money to make and every other possible real world commitment. If I'm gone from here, rest assured its to do better things. Bye all.
