Dear CD Projekt: Stop Using QTEs

Bitmob – Oh, CD Projekt Red. Why do you test me so?

Look, I like you guys, I really do. The Witcher, despite its many, many faults, was one of my highlights last year. Your digital service, GOG, has given me some great gaming classics I missed. Your company’s stance towards DRM is nothing short of wonderful. And as I play through your second title, The Witcher 2, I can see that the game is shaping up to be pretty damn solid.

So what the hell happened with these Quick Time Events?

I know, quick time events are not inherently bad. They can be darn effective in the right circumstances. Hell, just take a look at this.
