Risen 2.5
I don't know why people complain about it not being a good RPG: it doesn't even try to be an RPG. It is an open world pirate/fantasy action adventure game with character skill progression, focused on exploration. RPG is not even mentioned in the categories. The biggest pros: Piranha fixed 85% of the annoying bugs and glitches from Risen 2. Gameplay-wise there weren't too big changes, only the skills/crafting were streamlined in a positive direction. We've got a new story in an interesting world. The game is still atmospheric beautiful (not in a photo-realistic way like new titles), even in 2021. Swordplay was improved and balanced, now I didn't feel the need to switch to muskets at the half of the game. You have the map of every island, so no blind starts. Now the negatives: Dodging is set to avoid falls from cliffs due to the minor platforming elements, but this causes you to get stuck in battle on every small obstacle, like a patch of grass. The story-telling is pretty bad (voice acting and script), but at least mostly skippable. We didn't get a new world, which were interesting sometimes (how those islands changed in a few years), but mostly boring. The challenge went to the bottom. The game is simply too easy. The Fog Island DLC is kinda OK, but the Isle of thieves is only ~1 hour, and the equipment addon only makes the game even easier. The permanent skill potions now count towards the XP scale of the skills. This means if you want all your attributes at 105, you need to wait a lot before using them. Completely unnecessary restriction. I would give the game a 3.5 or even 4 because I really liked it, but objectively for a new player it would be mediocre.
