Review: Witcher 2

Read all about it here.
http://www.escapistmagazine.com/articles/view/editorials/reviews/8905-The-Witcher-2-Assassins-of-Kings-Review

The lack of explanation of how things work and the fact that the introduction and first chapter have significantly harder combat are mentioned here.  The map isn't great either.

However, all the reviewers loved the game, despite its flaws.

Rift: Dyeing Your Outfits

In Rift you can either buy dyes to change the colors of your armor or you can craft them as an apothecary.  (You might also find dyes for sale at the Auction House.)  This site shows off the various primary and secondary dye looks on armor types.

Read this before you try it at home, folks.

You can also preview and reverse the effect.  Read the bottom of this article for this information.  Please note that this reads like a rehash of the above information so the information about previewing and removed dye effects probably was taken from another site.

Rift Craft has a nice guide to making dye as an apothecary that lists the ingredients you need for each color.

Rift Wiki lists all the dyes and prices vendors sell.

The Zam database lists all the dye recipes.  Note that not each item has full information.
