Key points
- Owning any version, including retail, entitles you to a DRM-free copy on GOG.com; see Witcher Backup.
- Game has extremely poor mouse input. There is severe negative acceleration, and sensitivity is tied to frame rate (meaning that if the frame rate is fluctuating, then so will the sensitivity of the mouse).

Notes
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in
~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/20900/
in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (20900) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
