"CD Projekt RED is one of the new and shiny beacons of RPG development. As an indie studio, they managed to convince us that they are quite capable of developing quality games with their Witcher franchise back in 2007. Now, they managed to mesmerize us with Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings, their new title. We adored the title here and decided to talk with CD Projekt RED about their achievement and the game’s success."
"The Sr. Producer and Designer promise that the new patch (v.1.2) is going bring incredible changes to the game. This patch will contain over 50 fixes, including:
- Balance tweaks
- Key mappings
- Target locking in combat tweaks (increases the distance that you can target)
- Fix of importing saved games
- Exploiting containers fix (sorry!)"

""If you follow a top-down approach to selecting responses to questions directed at you, you will see full frontal nudity within the first ten minutes of the game. The Witcher 2 is an ADULT RPG – meaning that it is the equivalent of watching a hard R-rated film. There is nudity, foul language, giblet-tossing violence, and a lot more. Thankfully, none of it feels gratuitous and it all works within the bounds of The Witcher 2′s universe and plot...""

"Every once in a while we get a game made by some foreign dudes that comes out and tears new hole in AAA developers’ behinds – Witcher 2 is one of those games. Made by CD Projekt RED, Witcher 2 is an instant RPG classic, taking the first Witcher title and putting it into a blender complete with a new engine, beautifully immersive lands, challenging but rewarding combat system, and tits. I can’t stress this enough. We got some mad nipples here yo."

"Let me explain exactly why you should be excited for The Witcher 2. It all starts with the sidequest I got to play during a hands-on demonstration of the game at Atari’s offices in New York. Tomasz Gop, Senior Producer at Witcher developer CD Projekt RED, was on hand to walk me through the game and answer some of my questions."
"On the surface, CD Projekt's The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings and BioWare's Dragon Age II seem to have a lot in common. Both are single-player role-playing games set in dark and gritty fantasy worlds filled with racial tensions and political intrigue. Both offer real-time combat, moral choices and more dialogue than an off-Broadway play. Both games also managed to stir up a little controversy over their "mature" content, whether it was awkward man-on-male elf action or collectible playing ca..."

"Critical Gamer writes: For many, The Witcher 2 was the dark horse of this year’s Eurogamer Expo. Based on Andrzej Sapkowski’s Wiedźmin stories (which can now be enjoyed in short story, novel, comic, TV series, and movie form – though for the most part only in the author’s native Polish), the first game received generally favourable reviews and respectable sales at retail. Two years on however, and The Witcher franchise is still struggling to escape cult status outside of Poland. CD Projekt mu..."
"Influenced? Cliched erotic content? Ladies and gents, I think the gauntlet has now been thrown. Jan then tries to back out by adding,
"Dragon Age really was influenced by us and that's great, because it's a genre that doesn't have that many games and it's not like that serious a competition..."
But it's too late, Bartkowicz. You can't unthrow the gauntlet. GAUNTLET UNTHROWING IS NOT ALLOWED."
"Geralt of Rivia is back, and more bad ass than ever. In this brand new trailer, CD Projekt shows off the non-linear gameplay tactics and excellent swordplay that are ever present in The Witcher 2."
"According to the Witcher’s Facebook Page, CDProjekt is not going to, “sacrifice” the game’s development for consoles at the moment. They are simply focused on a great PC title … for now."
