The preorder page only list English, French, Italian, German and Spanish. Are there any plans to also make the original (Polish) version available for preorder on GOG.com?

I want Polish, too!
The Polish localisation will be distributed by gram.pl from what I've gathered, and they are offering a lower price than any other distributor, GOG.com included. CDProject guys said that this distribution is "wyłączna" ('exclusive') so I don't think we'll see it on GOG.com

I would also like to support GOG.com, but being offered a collectors' edition at 230 PLN (58 EUR instead of 100 EUR) and a premium one at 90 PLN (23 EUR instead of 50 EUR) the choice was rather clear.
I could only find the information that the collectors edition is exclusively available on gram.pl ("Edycja Kolekcjonerska - dostępnej wyłącznie w sklepie gram.pl!").

You are right, the offers there are great, but unfortunately gram.pl does not deliver to foreign countries. So it would be great if the (digital) premium edition would also be available in Polish on GOG.com.
Too bad, I didn't think of this and already preordered on GOG...
But do you think there'll be a way to set languages in-game, as in The Witcher 1?
If the quality of the localisations in the same in Witcher 2 as in the n°1, we definitely need original version!

I played The Witcher 1 with polish voices/english text, 4 times out of 10, there were whole paragraphs of the polish dialog which didn't appear in the translation! Not to mention the many profanities getting quite milder, and I'm thinking dwarven blacksmith here... ;-)

Well, since I'm studying polish, it was as good a way as any to practice. :-)
CD Projekt, bardzo proszę o polskie głosy we wersji mędzynarodowej Wiedżmina 2! Lubię kuturę polską!

I'm familar with the cut-scene and dialog issues with TW:EE. I doubt they'd make the same set of mistakes twice.

Anyway, if I did speak/read Polish I would order from gram.pl as that site indicates the version available there is not available anywhere else and would likely have everything the devs intended, just like in the original pl and ru releases of TW, before TW:EE and before TW:EE Director's Cut.
Add me to the list of people that would like the original Polish dialog available. It was one of the nice thing about the original, multiple language dialog that are not linked to the UI. No only it permit it permitted to play the original version in a way that was possible to understand but it also had educational application.
There's nothing there yet (no pre-order), but I'm 99% sure that EMPiK will be carrying The Witcher 2, and they do send internationally. It's not cheap (additional 60 PLN) but it's something.

It seems daft to keep the polish language with gram.pl - what about Polish people in other countries? gram.pl is Polish delivery only.

Maybe the reason is that they cannot release a fully uncensored version on international, which would suck I admit. But if that the actual reason hope they release a patch at release that uncensor and add the Polish language. But really hope it is not this reason.

But they did answer that the version on GOG will be the same everywhere, through it didn't answer if it is the same then Polish version.

Oh yeah, add me in to the list of people who wants Polish audio. I played the first Witcher in Polish audio / English subtitles. And I was mightily pissed off that the Steam version would always reset the audio back to English every time I restarted the game. My Polish skills are rather poor but the Polish voice acting was simply top-notch in the first game. I tried the English audio as well but it felt a bit flat.

Thus why I am gonna get GOG release of the Witcher, when it will be possible, that way I don't have to deal with that anymore, damn annoying I agree.

True.
Even I do not know Polish I would prefer to play this game with Polish voices and English text.
This is the reason why I haven`t bought W2 from GOG yet.

Sounds tasty. Sign me up for Polish voice acting.
I've asked the question on the Witcher forum, will post any sensible answers back here.
