The Witcher Website now offers downloads of a playable demo for The Witcher, CD Projekt's recently released action/RPG, though word is "Links currently don't work for people in United States - the appropriate ones will be given as soon as possible." To that end, manual downloads are available from ComputerGames.ro, FanGaming, FileFront, FilePlanet (registration required), Gamer's Hell, and PixelRage. The demo is accompanied by this blurb: "We encourage anyone who’s been on the fence about the game to check out the demo and to begin their adventures in the world of The Witcher."

The repeating character models thing is big straw man. It's typical reviewer fodder, an example of bad over reporting. In reality, it is something you notice once, go 'oh, I do see that they reused these models' and then it exits your mind, because it's only street people who have the 'problem', and there is enough diversity there considering you don't need much. The main characters are all well done and distinctive. Load times are long...ish. Nowhere near Gothic3; ten to fifteen seconds if you have a sensible harddrive setup (pagefile on a seperate drive from game/os). It gets kinda irritating, but the RPG is so good I'd be lying if I said it wasn't worth it.
