At its core, a very solid Assassnins Creed game. Everything a bit more compact as the first games of the series, bigger emphasis on stealth gameplay, multiple options to achieve the mission targets. Yet everything is destroyed by technical flaws. While minor things like the character being glued to some jump and run passages a bit too much are tiny annoyances, the respawn rate of the enemies is outright taking away all fun from the sneaking parts and thus destroying the core gameplay.
As soon as you turn your back to a just killed guard, a new one spawns next to the dead body. Being alarmed immediately as he sees the dead body next to him. One can kill them as well, but opposite to infinite enemies, combat supplies are not infinite.

So after all: good game, if it wouldn't be for the respawns. Buy at own risk and definitely not without discount.

This game is truly a masterpiece. Immersive world, good characters and storyline. The story branches are also not obvious: in the World of The Witcher there is no pure good or evil, and thus are the the decisions not as simple.

The outcome of these decisions is also not as obvious as in Mass Effect or similar games. Hours after some key dialogs happened, the actual twist in the story takes place, sometimes so uniquely told or a twist so unexpected, that I'm still remembering them very well even after 4 years of first playing it.
