The Witcher: Enhanced Edition Next Week

The Witcher Website narrows the release date for The Witcher: Enhanced Edition to September 16 in North America and September 19 for the rest of the world. In June CD Projekt RED announced the extra-polished version of the Polish action/RPG would be released in "the first half" of this month (story) meaning this project is delayed one last time, albeit just by a matter of days. Improvements over the original game in this release include "new inventory, voice-overs, models, adventures, gestures, animations, languages, alchemy and sex cards, as well as improved stability, reduced loading times, and many more enhancements." Thanks Tim.

I love The Witcher but then I bought the UK version.

I've got a NA EE on Pre-Order at GameStop because these guys deserve the money. And if they have the balls to create another game like The Witcher then I will support them and then some. Not just because it's a good game. They've create what so many NA politically correct studios were far too afraid to even try.... a game with adult content. Not that the teens won't like it.

I hope Dragon Age is even half as adult oriented as The Witcher.

And yes, the EE swag looks good.

try the online services (direct 2 drive etc.)

Read my post before replying...thanks.

Did I not say the uncensored (which is an import) version ? Did I not say the package with the Schwag?

Kinda hard to get a boxed copy with schwag from a digital distro.

Is there an Enhanced package of un-censored version with the schwag?

Anyone know of a site that ships to Canada and doesn't charge a stupid amount for it?

If movies can show peeps being obliterated why cant we see some pussy, tits and butthole? Give me a break. Just have versions that are for adults etc. Not all games are for kids! Hell people in there 40's to 50's invented video games, not little kids!

Anyways, I will get this EE version and hope they get a mod to unlock it all. You can get to real, free gang bang porno sits but god forbid a game that has safe sex scenes.

GoGamer has the Imported Enhanced for 10.00 more.

If you don't want the schwag, you can get the original import for 10.00 less and download the new content next week.

Edit: Looks like the version of The Witcher that'll be available through Impulse will be censored. I'm not sure if that's enough to keep my from buying via Impulse....probably not.
All of the releases in North America of Witcher EE are going to be censored for nudity and and coup de grace aka finishing moves are going to be censored as well: no decapitations. That's the way it was with the North American Witcher release previously. Hopefully you can mod it like it was done with the original witcher to put that stuff back in.

Passed on Spore due to DRM. Just added Sacred 2 to the list of games to pass on due to DRM. The Witcher: EE has been on my list to buy for awhile now, the fact that it's available via Impulse is even better. I just had better not have to pass on it due to DRM.

Someone explain the DRM thing (as it relates to The Witcher, that is).

Edit: Looks like the version of The Witcher that'll be available through Impulse will be censored. I'm not sure if that's enough to keep my from buying via Impulse....probably not.

I wish it was DRM-free, but unfortunately it can't be. We gotta have something on there.

Stardock's Impulsedriven forums is claiming "The Witcher: Enhanced Edition is being made available with ABSOLUTELY NO DRM OF ANY KIND. No wrappers, no CD checks, nothing."

http://forums.impulsedriven.com/323317

Given you work at CD Projekt would you please expand on your statement. They say one thing and you say something else. I'm really confused and don't know who to believe.

Two Worlds was garbage.

Blow me. Two Worlds is a fun game. An up to date Dablo I and II.

Really leaning towards getting the boxed version for the schwag.

If you don't mind patching, you can get the original version of the Witcher for $24 at Amazon right now. Original versions are patchable to the Enhanced Edition, as we all now well know.

Why would the North American version of Enhanced Edition not be censored in order to get a MA rating instead of a AO rating just like the previous North American release was?

I have seen the coup de grace (finishing moves) that I have never seen before in my copy of the game, on you tube:

Ah it's not a store page I saw it on. It's the forum post
http://forums.impulsedriven.com/323317

it says "The Witcher: Enhanced Edition will be available through Impulse on September 15th to coincide with the retail relaunch. The Witcher: Enhanced Edition is being made available with ABSOLUTELY NO DRM OF ANY KIND. No wrappers, no CD checks, nothing."

I have the same problem, but I think its because the actual store is in a downloadable exe (not sure though)
