Risen 2: Dark Waters
Description
Set several years after the end of Risen, raging titans have devastated the world and pushed humanity to the brink of existence. Subsequently, monstrous creatures have risen from the watery depths of the sea and their attacks have brought all seafaring to a grinding halt.
The hero, now a member of the Inquisition, is sent out to find out how to stop the chaos caused by these creatures from the deep. His quest begins with rumors that the pirates who frequent the southern islands are the only ones who know a way to get rid of the creatures once and for all and end their reign of terror.

- With an all-new pirate-based theme, Risen 2: Dark Waters aims to combine the most loved classic RPG gameplay mechanics of the original Risen with a fresh theme and setting on a huge variety of themed island locales.
- A third-person role-playing game set in a dark and gritty universe, Risen 2: Dark Waters maintains the most immersive features of the original Risen, with multiple approaches to every challenge allowing players to shape the game world based on their own decisions. These choices will serve to unlock new paths, features and additional skills for the character.
- Together with a highly interactive environment and a full day/night-cycle affecting countless aspects of the game world, Risen 2 will be set in the most immersive RPG game world so far.

What a piece of crap
Seriously, this game sucks. Tedious combat, maddening camera, little magic and not even close to being the open world that Gothic 1 and 2 were.

Combat system is just too bad
First Risen has bad combat control, but not terrible. Risen 2 has very terrible combat control, PC hero turns back in combat and shoot opposite way, other time he turn his side to enemy instead go round. Game has awesome vibe, one the bests, and I love it so much, It's one of my favorite, but does it matter if game where main thing is fighting and It sucks in it?

Pirates of the Caribbean or something
After playing Risen 1, the sequel is just ridiculous. You know how the Order used to fight with staffs and magic? Well, now they use no magic at all and suddenly they all fight with sabers, pistols and bayonets. You're basically looking at British East India Company and the game offers zero explanation how that happened. The whole fighting system is gone - now combat is a fencing match, although you can also shoot your opponent in the face with a pistol. For some reason no one's bothered when you challenge a commander to a duel and then just proceed to run around and repeatedly shoot him in the face when he's chasing you with his fencing epee. Oh, and the main character is the same guy from the first part, but now he suddenly doesn't know how to fight, because he was drinking for last couple of months. The guy recently defeated a Titan, but now some weird sand rats of a size of his shoe are a challenge. Together with losing his combat abilities he also, for some reason, doesn't know how to open locks, sneak, or use magic. The latter doesn't really matter though, since no one uses magic anymore. Remember how the Order consisted of mages and warriors? Well, now they all just use epees and bayonets. The immersion is impossible - there's no way to believe that this is the same world as in Risen 1. So it's a pirate game, for reasons unknown proclaimed a sequel to Risen. It could still be good if you try really hard to forget that it's supposed to be tied to the previous story. Except it's not. The combat, apart from being completely different than Risen 2, is just terrible. Did I mention that you can't move backwards? If you're fighting an opponent and want to take a step back, you need to literally turn your whole body around. The game is full of bugs and they start to seriously interfere with gameplay after 15 minutes from the beginning. I didn't expect much, but I was still massively let down and I would recommend this game to absolutely no one.
