This is not an RPG!

The first thing to get out of the way if you are trying to decide whether Two Worlds is for you or not, is that Two Worlds is NOT an RPG. If you're expecting a game like Oblivion or Gothic you will be disappointed. There are many NPCs and they talk a lot, but that is already the limit of the "RPG interaction" with the game world. NPCs give out quests, but these are limited to killing creatures at point X or talking to guy at point Z. Instead, Two Worlds should be considered an open world hack & slash game. Think Diablo in 3D. If that thought appeals to you, you will enjoy the game. Like Diablo, 90% of the game is spent running around, killing things, continuously improving your equipment and returning to towns and cities to sell the loot. I started out playing this, expecting an Oblivion game, and was severely disappointed. Once I started to accept that this game really is Diablo 3D, I started to actually enjoy it. The good things about this game are the magic effects (only apparent later, when you are powerful enough), that the combat can actually be quite exciting (use the Q key and special abilities a lot) and the huge game world. Also, once I got past the RPG expectations, the gameplay element of stacking equipment to increase its usefulness is actually quite fun. Negative is the horse riding (clunky), story and dialoges are not the best in the world, and the poor balancing (a lot of enemies will kill you with one hit - jump back to avoid).

Much better than you first think

I bought this game on its first release - went the whole hog with the special edition (complete with mini tabletop RPG manual), even bought the strategy guide! However, upon playing the game my excitement rapidly waned. The dialogue was dire. The voice acting was laughably abysmal. Character models you ask? Well don't. I barely managed half an hour before quitting. Fast forward 18 months... I found myself at a bit of a loose end with plenty of time to kill playing computer games. What perversity made me turn back to Two Worlds I don't know, but I'm glad I did, because underneath its shabby exterior lies a complete gem of a game. I normally have the attention span of a gnat with dementia, but this game got played through to the end (unlike Oblivion!), and I've returned to it many times since. Defintely worth the tiny cost it's now available for. I re-bought it on GOG after having DRM issues with my original copy - a very worthwhile investment! Go buy it, revel in the cheesy dialogue, and explore the world of Antaloor and it's many wonders! :D

Impressions of Two Worlds Epic Edition

As of writing this, I've beaten the game, gotten two (both?) endings, and have started a second playthrough. I haven't touched the DLC, so I won't be commenting on that. STORY/CHARACTERS Not much to say here. Characters are basic, and the story is too. There's a surprising amount of world building from dialogue, but I only found the world mildly interesting. MUSIC/SOUND Sound effects are servicable, and sometimes good. There's something quite satisfying about tearing through a horde of enemies and listening to a cascade of dying screams. I don't remember that much of the music, but I do like the ambient music and sounds. Battle music is a bit intense, but does what it should. COMBAT Combat is either steady and good-enough, or a janky nightmare. It's fine when you're just mashing attack while healing when necessary. However, jank is usually looming. It's possible to get knocked down repeatedly with no chance of escape, and if you take several hits at once, the game will briefly freeze and you'll be blasted with a flurry of blows the next second, often killing you. 1v1 fights are usually fine though, aside from the one-shots (which are common). OVERALL GAMEPLAY "unpolished" is probably the best word here. Max level skills are often situational at best. For instance, the torch skill only has a 48% chance of igniting an enemy at max level. Similarly with spells, there's a heal-over-time spell that only works when your weapon is sheathed (WHY?). The spells are also copy-pasted between schools often. I do have to praise the loot system though; the ability to combine pieces of equipment to make them stronger allows for more opportunities to "see numbers go up," and rarely leaves you with the feeling of "oh, it's just another +500 mega death blade. yawn." This might not sound like a 4/5 review, but I wanted to lay out some of the less attractive aspects for people. Be assured that I love this game, and I highly recommend it if you want an interesting experience.

Genuinely enjoyable

Very open world and it is good. The game is non-linear. Not much real choice in character type though. More RPG than action. No trouble finding appropriate difficulty opponents. Give me another year or two to forget it, and I'll play it again.

Story and the world is great but combat

I enjoyed the story and the world in the game. The combat is another story. It is very simple and easy. Had a great time with the game as the story and the world is great. I liked the way to upgrade your gear in the game. Graphics and sound/music works fine. Can easily recommend it.
