Got the Witcher today (woo hoo!) and am happily playing it, but.... it
crashes about every 20 minutes or so. I have the latest patch, but,
well, you can imagine how annoying this is. Is this something that
everyone experiences or perhaps related to my particular HW/SW
configuration in my rig?
without getting into many details, it's a super fast relatively new rig
(dual, not quad core), xp media center, dual GF 7950 GT in SLI, latest
drivers, etc.... (I keep pretty much everything up to date).

Not asking about my setup per se, just if others are also experiencing a
lot of crashing as well?


W/me it ran perfectly . . until several hours in. Then, every
time I saved the game, if I was overwriting another file, it'd crash
(but not if it was creating a new file). Weird crash. So I just
stopped playing and decided to wait until a patch. Went back to some
other games I'm tryin' to finish instead.
Plus, I didn't realize the U.S. version was censored when I
got it, so I figured waiting would also be good because someone is
bound to come out w/a mod/crack that'll uncensor it, swap the
movies/text to the uncensored versions, etc...
I can wait. =>

What?? Did we in the US take another beating?

Please it ain't so~~~~~

Yep, apparently they had to remove the odd nipple. However you caused the rest of the world to lose out too, since it looks to me like some of the characters and cutscenes were 'Bowdlerised at birth', just to avoid redoing it all for the USA (Lady of the Lake in particular).

Why it's OK to show stuff in magazines they sell in gas stations, but not in '18 rated' computer games, is a mystery. Heads coming off under sword impact - no issue; bits of anatomy doing what comes naturally - no deal.

Having said that, the dryad, and several of the female monsters, are still pretty raunchy by most standards - very realistic wobbles. The males seem to have been snipped though. 8>.
