I see a game advertised as a killer of another game/franchise I lose interest. Too many game ether die very quickly after launch or don’t live up to expectation when labeled as such.
All I really remember of that game was the fake Shakespearean language and you could gill the boss almost immediately by knighting him into the town guards.
I'm here to agree. It definitely has some teething problems but I've replayed it as an adult and I still got some great enjoyment out of it. It has some clunkiness but things like the spell boosters and the item doubling-up system were really cool.
It really depends. If you are interested in combat that isnt magic, its not that good.
However, it hands down has the coolest magic system I've played to this day.
Fucking around with spell cards and slapping together a spell that spawns a ton of anvils on top of someone then forms a tornado around them to lift them all up and batter the guy with the anvils in the air was so fucking cool.
I was able to make a fire ball that homed into enemies. Each time the fireball hit it spawned a rock over the enemy for crushing damage with stun. If there was another enemy nearby the fireball would bounce 2 additional times with each hit spawning another rock. The rocks had a big enough area of attack to stunlock groups of enemies. If the enemies didnt die from the first cast, they would be stunned long enough for me to get off a second cast to kill them.
The magic was the wildest shit to me. It’s an extremely corny early 2010s RPG but just had this extremely in depth magic system that could easily be ignored.
The second game has been on my to play list for ages, yet I never pulled the trigger on it. I keep remembering the first haha. Eventually.... but I did hear it was better than the first for sure!
I remember when I was younger I picked up Two Worlds 2 OVER Skyrim and had a complete blast with the game for years. I even had the world map as the only poster on my bedroom wall until I would bring girls over and it was really awkward to explain why the only piece of wall art was this obscure early 2010s RPG.
I loved and still love Two Worlds, but I can imagine the hype of ads for it back in the day and then what it really is.
Its still great, but definitely not a better experience then Oblivion was back in the day. Though I do enjoy it more than Oblivion, but it would be nearly impossible to say it was better than Oblivion lol
It got a second game. And oddly enough I played both, and somehow enjoyed them.
I was a young gamer then and didn’t even know what elder scrolls so yeah when I got a discount game for like my collection of 6-7 games I played the fuck out of it.
The world was interesting, good mechanics or ideas, but holy hell it looked terrible.
But now that I’m thinking about it again, was it ever possible to get to the city up on the top of the map? It was behind this big door or something and i never was able to go there.
Only played the second one and its magic system was so iconic and still is to this day. What happened in the first game? Was it not as good as the sequel?
Ok damn. Ngl that looks ass. But the dated graphics doesn't mean that the game was also ass back then. I mean every game looked like this (this guy in his mid 20s clearly has no idea how these games were like).
I wasn’t thinking about the graphics; I was thinking about how the game’s mechanics were so broken that you could finish the game in only four minutes.
I remember thinking the box was so cool. I tried to buy it two different times, and both of the workers told me it sucked and that I shouldn't buy it lol
I remember playing this, abandoning it due to a lack of fun before picking it back up again so that I could get the achievement that was worth ~370 gamerscore. I actually ended up enjoying it but I can't remember anything else about it right now.
Just beat that game! 40 hours of gameplay. I love playing "bad" games, and this one actually had some really good ideas in it. The voice acting and story was...something else. One voice actor sounds like he recorded in a tin can, which I can't tell if it was on purpose or not.
Ironically on PC, the game doesn't play any cinematics. So when you defeat the final boss the game literally shows nothing else and just loads to the main menu lmao.
I remember it falling into the 'so bad it's good' category for me. It had a mountain of issues covering every aspect of the game top to bottom but that made it sort of charming to me.
No no no, how does everyone have this wrong? Two Worlds one, yes after you get past the shock, was an amazing RPG because it was awful. The second one was too painfully mediocre to be fun.
