[fable]

First off, I'm definitely *not* looking for combat complexity. I'm not interested in fancy moves. I like the option to hone my skills carefully, slowly, building up stats in such a way that they let me bang away easily on something of my level or above, without worrying about spins, crouches, flips, overhand moves, or giving a high sign while spouting fanboi slogans in Esperanto.

For those who don't understand, I'm being sarcastic in my final phrase, above. For the rest, I mean it. What I want to know is whether The Witcher is playable by somebody who prefers story depth, exploration, intelligent puzzles, good NPC writing, and doesn't really want the dextrous combat? Simply put.
