Skill Tree??

[pdt0001]

I am a little confused about how this skill tree works as I have never seen anything quite like it.
I feel like there are just so many choices and not enough points. Is it possible to fill up every skill, or will you always be missing some? is it possible to respec?

Don't sweat it too much. It's not possible to respec but you'll get plenty of skill points to spend before the end of the game and you should have everything you need by then.

For starters, grab the Monster Lore and Herbolism skills from the Intelligence tree first.
These will help you harvest extra potion ingredients from plants and corpses throughout the game. This will also help you out with money by selling the ingredients if ever the cash gets tight.

After getting these, upgrading many of your sword style skills isn't a bad idea, especially the ones that directly buff the style's damage. You can also throw in some stuff that buffs condition damage (Bleeding, Ignite, Pain, Etc.) here and there which will combo nicely with your signs.
Also, search the stat based skill trees and nab anything that buffs direct damage or anything that buffs attack in there.

Igni and Aard are pretty much the only two signs you'll need so you'll probably want to upgrade those as well intermittently. (Damage, Firing arcs, and conditions like Ignite, Knockdown and Stun.)

Take note of what you seem to be using most and what you like doing best in fights and play it by ear. You'll soon know what to do on your own.

And: EVERY good skill tree has lots of choices and not enough skill points to become a master of everything.

Well I wouldnt say every good skill tree. For example, Skrim has one of the most in depth skill trees I have ever seen, and it has some dlc that takes off the level cap, allowing you to eventually fill up all the skills.
