    Canon is only one. The books. Games are ADAPTATIONS. Canon story can only be told by the author and his books. The author refuses to resource to convergence of mediae to tell the story, but in the same time he can accept ADAPTATIONS as a whole different entity (apart from the books). He liked the approach and the stance of CDPR when negotiating with him on the licence, he said its rare these days. He was pleased with that fact and their work being really good at a glance BUT he has no interest in the game industry, and he, simply put, doesnt care what they make as long as its quality work. Still, these are just adaptations.

    Disservice... AS's books sold really well in Europe and the fame exceeds of the game's fame I suppose. He is already an established author and need nor wants to be advertised through games which might seem as tie ins to his canon. Which in part "dilute" his work... which might get lost in all the stuff being produced (movies, tv series, comic books or games - whatever). He keeps in mind the purity of his work - witcher world/canon.

    ... sheesh. ›››

    Aside the fact that I don't undertsand what's so disturbing in wisielec's posts.....
    thank you very much wisielec :flower:

    Her timing was very suspicious and suggested that she was buying Geralt's loyalty. She could have sex with Geralt any time before if she wanted to, but she chose a moment when the villagers were after her and Geralt could help her protect herself if given an incensitive to care. I agree that she was probably capable of protecting herself, she sounded like she could do it, but one against many? Noone would be too self-confident in such a situation. Besides, Geralt could side with the villagers and become a tough opponent.

    Maybe you misunderstood me. Abigail situation at the end of ACT I is clear. What is less clear if if she actually wants to give herself to Geralt as and exchange act, or as a payment. As I said, being a woman myself I found a bit disgusting accepting the offer. But I am wondering if the Devs meant something more when writing that scene, or if some other players saw the thing in a different way than mine. Coz as I said, Abigail to me seems no woman in distress, in her attitude (not in the facts, in the situation).

    Taking advantage of her might be seen in two ways. And eventually she never expressed any despising toward Geralt before the final event.

    Yeah and her sex card suggests that she isn't that simple. :whistle:/>
    Pretty much I even doubt she is totally, 100% innocent. That Odo doll in her house made me think. More likely she is the most innocent in the Outskirt events.

    What about the elf-woman in the cave? I considered it an equally dubious sex situation, she was dying from hunger and despair and everything was wrong about sex happening and Geralt being happy about it. In my game we had sex accidentally, sometimes you don't see it coming...

    Ew.... that is simply awkward! I seriously had problem in accepting the offer.
    The way I see it is that they wanted to portrait a tough brutal world, where sex is also a monetary exchange. It's up to you and to your moral to decide whether it's accpetable or not.

    There is another similar situation in W2. In Vergen, you can meet one of the elf-girls you saved before in Floatsam. She offers sex as a sign of gratitude. I found it horrible the same, but I guess it's just me.

    Another example is Celina, and while there was nothing overtly wrong in her case, the whole deed leaves a vaguely bad aftertaste. Like your Geralt is ready to use any opportunity, no matter the reason and whether she is sincerely willing or not. I'm really glad they did away with that BS in TW2 and all sex situations actually started to make sense.

    Oh well the entire game goes in that direction. It's my only complaint. Too many women willing of distributing sex to a witcher, simply surreal.
    Celina's sex is given in spite, in regard to her sister. In that specifical occasion, Geralt is actually the toy for her, it's up to you to accept the role or not. Curious, coz I've always imagined that scene being pretty rough, I mean "mechanical". She seems to have not the slightest interest for Geralt. On the contrary, her sex card suggests a different situation and it's even among the sweetest sex cards (but that thanks to the artist <3)

    I was on the edge of doing so after Gfwl wanted me not to play my AC, just because the Gfwl registration screwed up. I didn't understand why I am not able to play a game legally bought. Nevertheless I was stubborn and after bugging all the universe (WB support, Microsoft support, Gfwl support) then I finally managed to play offline and restart the game from the beginning. Quite annoying cause I was at the half of my first playthrough (you know, after you spit sweat and blood for killing those bad boss villains). Besides I don't regret to replay AC, I've done up to 6-7 times (5 for AA) I just don't think that it's fair to bug a legal customer life so much! And I also owns the GotY edition!

    You are right, when the situation is so silly and stuck (and Gfwl support sucks, grrr!) a crack might make your life definitely easier. I just would like to ask to those gentlemen why I should crack a game that I legally own. It's an insult!


    (Also not to mention that you never know what you download. Most of cracks contains trojans and other malwares)

    I know your pain, I have many, many projects to do for university. I thought, that on the last year of studies I'll have not so many things to do due to main year project - a master degree one. But I was so wrong :D

    You went to a STAR TREK CONVENTION in LONDON? Oooh, Secondchildren heaven! :-)
    I love London! I love the Tower and the museums and all that stuff. I keep envisioning Holmes and Watson driving by in a hansom cab. :-)
    Glad to hear you had a wonderful time! Was the trip a birthday treat, or was the timing a coincidence?
