Ha, ha! ... HD boobs! Crazy kids.
Playing a second run through, while spending my talent points on magick rather then swordsmanship, I've found this game much more enjoyable given the experience from the first run. I only say that because it took me awhile to get used to the mechanics of battle. Playing only on normal mode both times I found it rewarding. I'd love to hear from anyone that has played dark mode. And has survived to the end.
I love using the aard sign when it pushes enemies off high ledges! Also love the moments when a critical kill is done with both swords.
