Tutorial

I don't think the tutorial does a good job of introducing people into the world of the Witcher. The main reason for this being that the help hints aren't visible for long enough, or are shown when you are busy in combat. Trying to read whilst fighting for the first time isn't possible. I found myself literally running around in circles avoiding enemy blows just so I could read the tutorial.

I tried pausing the game by pressing Esc, but that just opens up the menu, and when you go back into the gameplay the help hint that was on your screen has now gone.

I think the tutorial should be slowed down a bit, maybe have the game pause and continue once the player chooses so. Either that, or have the gameplay carry on but the help hints only go away once the play chooses so.

Also, no in-game tutorial to dice poker. I should have guessed it was like poker from the name, but at first I thought it was whoever had the highest value of dice won. The English Wiki helped and later I found the rules explained in the manual, but not ingame. Thinking about it, there might have been an ingame tutorial, but it probably went too fast for me to read.
