Witcher Demo now out

[OD-BLOODED-1]

FilePlanet: The Witcher Demo

Here's a little bit about the game from the official website

Quote:

Welcome to a world that knows no mercy – none is received, and none is given. Only physical and mental agility can keep you alive, though they are by no means a guarantor of life. You play the role of Geralt – an already legendary monster-slayer, but this, my friend, is not a gift and is certainly not given lightly. “The Witcher” is an immense computer game. Within its realm, you will have to assume the burden of choice. And this burden of choice, as light as it may appear, is the very thing that will both permit you to wield influence over the fate of the world, as well as get you slain prematurely.

Be assured, my friend, combat with all its attendant viciousness and brutality will not let you pass by, unchallenged. However, the path before you isn’t simple; you are about to be entangled in an intense and intricate plot, which will constantly require instantaneous decisions on your part. Decision-making, therefore, is the real challenge here, so get ready to confront it. For, regardless of the choices you make, the path you choose to tread, and the infamous sang-froid of your character, it will all take its heavy toll on your moral conscience. You shall quickly discover that the difference between Good and Evil, provided it even exists, is as thin as the edge of a blade, if not more so. And it is you who ultimately decides what path Geralt, the White Wolf, shall walk.

The story of “The Witcher” is set in the realm of bestselling fantasy saga by the same title, conjured to life by Andrzej Sapkowski – one of the most acclaimed Polish contemporary writers. It is into his unique world of pervasive magic, bitter conflict, and occasional dark humor, that you will be immersed. Bare in mind, however, that your voluntary entry into this world will most definitely not allow for any trace of compassion or leniency – esteem and the right to live are hard to come by.

Thanks for fixing up my post, I had no idea it'd be in the news lol. After toying around a bit in game, it's definately going to be a purchase.

it's not working for me for some reason, after I install it and try to play it gives me an error window.

"This application has failed to start because d3dx9_35.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem."

My boss owns the game and he actually likes it more than Oblivion!

This should fix that problem. (2nd post, sorry don't have a direct link)

Thanks, I'll try it when I get home tonight

I have the full game now, enjoying it aside from some weird conversations with NPC's. Ah well, I can overlook it considering it's the developers first game, and English is not their native language lol.

let us know how it is after you try it out for a few.
