Well mine couple of cents into that cool-story-discussion. It seems that it's quite popular to compare Witcher, Dragon Age and Elder Scrolls, although have no idea why you people do this, since all that great series all about different things, so it looks like - "Hm, lets compare black with soft and with salty." Although it's specially going to Withcher's fans - i have no idea why, but it seems that want persuade everyone that this particular series best in the whole world; no don't get me wrong i love Witcher myself, although only first part, while second game, seems very strange for me - who firstly become familiar with series by the books, especially it's main story looking like it was sucked out of finger. But again, it got it own pluses and minuses. And speaking back to games each one of them about their own stuff - TES - about exploring and leveling and knowing the world around you; DA - great story (except first one, which was absolutely predictable right from Ostagar, but once again it's only me); Witcher - well, it's own stuff.
