This is supposdelly an internal video but it's got production values out the wazoo, like you'd expect to see in a gigantic high profile feature on one of the bigger websites. It's obviously intended for public consumption and not merely internal use.

That said, the game seems to be shaping up AMAZINGLY WELL, I look so very forward to it now :-)

Looks solid!  I was pissed when I heard the 360 version of the first one got canceled.

The environments seem bigger and more populated and more natural overall, not as crudely developed as areas in the first could be. The combat seems to flow much better too, the duel with that dude in the end looks ace, especially how he also used signs.

"We have made several high-quality models like this dragon cool isn't it?"
 
This game looks pretty slick but, like most continental European games, the voice acting is awful.
 
I don't like the inclusion of quick-time events. I don't think they're a fun concept in any way.

I see the Bioware syndrome is spreading(fake choices), other than that it looks good. But of course it's only an alpha build.

The voice acting in the first The Witcher is just fine for the most part, the actors here are different even for the main character so I'll assume that's because they aren't finalised. The game doesn't even have a tentative release date yet, hell, this is the first we've seen of it.

Fake choices? What? The first game had few choices but they did alter the storyline down the line, I imagine they've expanded it for this game rather than take the route where every choice has the exact same outcome or only affects the given cut scene with no long term effects.

Chances are that...since this is an Alpha build...the final voice acting is not in place yet. 
 
With that said: 

1.  A European game has pretty graphics?  Say it ain't so *cough*PRIMAL, GHOSTHUNTER, KILLZONE 2*cough*
2. So long as they fix the pacing issues from the first game, it'll be AWESOME.
3. Make a console version PLOX

This looks amazing. I really loved the first one. I just hope they would announce it soon...

Please make a console version...I would buy it asap. I loved The Witcher

Sweet jumping Jehoshaphat, give me. I would have done a double tap of the "W" key to jump over the assassin character and hit him from the rear. I love the destruction from the Aard sign, great stuff.

Might as well post this here if the others getting locked..
 
Awesome stuff. I'm really looking forward to the sequel, I'm hoping CDProjekt nail it this time around. The original for me is a flawed masterpiece, but any game now will be much improved with player feedback. The EE is not a good yard stick I think, I believe this will be better.
  
I traveled all over London to acquire a copy of the rare EU LE, because everywhere I went was sold out within hours, or never got them in the first place.  The LE came with the OST, Map and Artbook. The artbook is pretty awesome.
 

    

Lookin' good. I hope Adam Skorupa comes back and does the score for this one as well.

Added to my wishlist :D  
 
This looks very promising, and if CD ProjektRed supports players' mods then this could be a classic!

the voice acting was kind of bad, but other than that it looks good.

I loved the first, and this looks like more of the same, but honed to a finer point. 
 
Oh and since that's an internal trailer for an alpha build, I can almost assure you the voices aren't final, especially since there were 4 or so characters with the same voice, talking at the same time, when he blew up them crates

The choices in the witcher are nothing like in bioware's. Play the first one and see for yourself. "

Bioware, by no means, invented choices. PC RPGs always had choices. "

That's all well and good, but will it actually work on my PC, unlike the first one?

  It has choices, yeah, but no consequences.

 Indeed. "

bunch of whiners all of you! First one was awesome and this one  looks awesomer. Sold!

 
It will look far better once it's had it's polish. No pun intended. 
 
I think it looks a little crude in places, but I can easily see that all the ground work is great, and those environments are indeed stunningly realistic. It simply needs that extra gloss that comes with more time in development, pushing,
 
Looking at the video again, I still think the combat could do with more fluidity in the animation, in respect to transitions. of course it still looks great  though, definitely an improvement over the original. 
 
...

Really not sure about that ponytail though.

This looks cool.  I gotta finish the 1st one though.

The producer of the game has confirmed it's coming to 360 and PS3 on the official website. How the releases will break down is not disclosed. I think it will most likely come out on PC first.

I dunno how they can make the combat system fun on consoles. They were attempting to make it more action based Zelda style for the port of the first game and I imagine that also played a part in the cancelation, it's not going to be easy to adjust, and I'm curious to see their take on the sequel... I'll be getting it on PC anyway of course, gotta love fanmade modules <3

This looks pretty awesome. I can't wait to see some Beta footage!

Wow, how did anybody miss this. Look it up. Yummy.

This is relevant to my interests.

 Not long ago I had the pleasure of introducing the game to a Polish technician that came to fix my PC. He loves it now.   ... "

" Holy Shitballs, I can't wait for it!!!! "

I loved the first Witcher, shame I never passed it though.

If they fix the combat and story progression this might be interesting. 

I'm really looking forward to this.

Looks fucking fantastic but I think we can all agree that the Voice acting there is placeholder from hell, if that is what Geralt sounds like when the game comes out I think I would fliip out.

Yes, that voice acting was just placeholder.
