I quickly grew to hate this game, why?

Because I was given a gritty beautifully rendered intricate world and the body of a homeless retarded cripple.

Everyone else in the world has a house and a bed to go home to, me I get to sleep on the floor and can't even rent a box to keep my stuff in (and there is vastly more and more useful stuff compared to the original).

I am too retarded to remember potions or plans so I have to carry them all around with me.

If I want to pick something up I have to shuffle around trying to stand on top of it like the only way I can pick up things is with a vacuum cleaner pipe stuck in my ass or something. If I happen to stand near a door or a torch I will probably decide to fiddle with those instead.

The only way I can see if there is something I might want to pick up (if I had anywhere to put it) is with my uber medallion sixth sense and it keeps lying to me.

When I am fighting I decide who I want to hit by kinda looking at them funny and I keep changing my mind. My eyes are somewhere behind my head and when they are stuck in a bush I can't see who I am trying to fight at all.

I am such a cripple I can't take the top off a bottle and drink it without sitting down first and baddies must steal all the chairs cos I can never sit down when they are around.

I think someone is drugging me or something cos sometimes I cross some invisible line on the ground and suddenly I am somewhere else (usually staring at an extra large baddie) and I have no recollection of how I got there. I even remember making a special potion to help fight one of them, but, he must have eaten all the chairs again so I couldn't drink it.

I thought I was supposed to be a Witcher, master of magic and combat and feared by all, but no, I walk around this world feeling like a bumbling homeless idiot.
Once all the game breaking bugs/issues are fixed, they really need to start working on implementing a small crosshair like the one that was present in TW1. The current system is so inaccurate and annoying. I can't count how many times I've initiated dialogue with the person standing next to the person I want to talk to.

And when I say implementing the crosshair, I also want the ability to hold a key that shows the names of everything above them, like in TW1. Hell, crosshair for combat instead of auto target pick would be nice as well.

You have a valid point about the loot box and how small it is to be able to loot anything especially the bags that fall from mobs.

I'll probably encounter the other problems you mention about the games soon , if I can ever get on the registration server to register my collectors edition. Should have never uninstalled the GoG premium version.

Well here's hoping there is a ton of beer at some pub to make me even more retarded in game and who knows maybe the barkeep will let me sleep on one of the tables as I'm going to be homeless.

Just Me,

This would actually be a good comedy post, sadly its all true ;/

Its not just looting, its also disarming traps, collecting traps, and activation of things closely next to other things that get complicated

I would like to add

"Those toxic potions have made my muscles so brittle that I always stagger back like a drunk when someone blocks my sword attack."

"Gravity and Inertia and general combat education mean nothing to me, as i can freely roll in an arc around an enemy."

"Doing a step back or to the side to dodge an attack is not flashy enough for me, it makes me look bad to the laddies to do such simple but effective evasion moves."

"Years of practice of spoon bending and meta-physical transdimensional rift generation have made it possible that my silver sword does less damage to humans than a steel bread-knife."

"Years of potion abuse have made me unable to walk backwards"

this thread is now about making the games problems funny
good post OP :D
I have been raped silly because everytime my buddy Geralt is next to a door he can't help himself but to calmly and collectively walk through the door, even though enemies are attacking.

My buddy Geralt would be agreeing to fight a person or be in conversation that initiates a fight but my buddy Geralt would not dra whis sword unless told to do so. Enemies would attack him and he would refuse to automatically draw his sword. He is such a pacifist.

all he wants is the sex
"Another 5 years of potion abuse have made me unable to hold a torch to light the way"

"I am Geralt of Rivia, not River, because I definitely would not be able to swim across one as a metaphysical barrier creates a warp in time and space, and prevents me from swimming, thank melitele theres always a crossing, boat or shallow water wherever i need to go"

"I am Geralt of Rivia, and can be stopped by a 2 feet high obstacle over which i can not vault nor step, this is purely out of mindfulness for those poor obstacles, their feelings to be exact, those feelings they'd have when someone huge and mighty might step over them, and i don't want to insult the obstacles.. those poor things."

A crosshair (cursor) would require a mouse and consoles don't have mice which is why the game doesn't have a crosshair. Unlike some of the other issues I am not very optimistic that will change. This is a console game it just hasn't been ported yet.

Never had an issue personally. Just line who you want to talk to or attack up with the center of the screen and boom, bob's your uncle.

I love this game, but this post cracked me up as I was nodding my head in agreement the whole time.

Obviously you are misinformed of the gameplay mechanics of the Witcher series. The silver sword is for monsters only. Ready the books, play the games... its all the same.

Well if you want to get all technical both PS3 and Xbox 360 supports mouse AND keyboard so???

And lets not act like this is the first game on the planet to use a "within range" selection mechanic. It works sometimes but it fails miserably when multiple items are next to each other.
