For those who get all angry when they have to stand up and move a little to swap discs, I have bad news for you. The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings is going to take up two discs most likely when it is released during the first quarter of 2012. For the rest of us, this is no big deal and it is a good sign that CD Projekt RED isn’t cutting any corners as far as content goes.
During the Eurogamer Expo this weekend, CD Projekt RED’s Jan Krzysztof Bielecki was asked a question concerning how many discs the game will require, and Beefjack reports that he said “It’s going to be more than one. And it cannot be three, so… eyah, it’s going to be two discs.” While this may not be any official announcement it is safe to say there will be a multi-disc release.

2 Disc is realy realistic, I am not suprised at this. As long the X-box don’t start to use Blu-rays, this will happen more often.

Agreed, they’ve missed a trick with their disc format, but I guess it doesn’t matter as this won’t be on PS3 anyway…
And I think the worst thing about changing discs is not having to physically do so, rather the big resounding clunk as all immersion shatters and you know exactly what point you’re at in game.
