CCC Says: "Risen 3… it’s an RPG that’s kind of about the middle ages, kind of about pirates, kind of about zombies, and kind of about monsters. If this sounds like a random disorganized mishmash to you, then congratulations, you know exactly what Risen 3 is like. Risen 3 never seems to actually get off on the right foot. Its gameplay concepts are always almost fun, its story is always almost compelling, and its graphics are almost impressive. But nonetheless, the game is always stuck in “almost.” Instead of refining any of its interesting ideas, Risen 3 just seems to add more and more half-baked ideas to the game, which makes the whole thing feel unpolished."
Ownership over several titles gets shuffled in THQ Nordic and Koch Media arrangement. Potential remasters, sequels, ports, and more on the horizon.
Both THQ and Koch Media are owned by the same larger company, the Embracer Group. I’m not sure why the publishing rights would need to be swapped.
I hope they release risen on switch It's a underrated game all so
DBC: “Out of the multitude of terrific genres out there, it’s fair to say that role-playing games have the potential to be the most ambitious and immersive experiences of the bunch.”
Remnant is also a pleasant surprise and it was only $40. I'm a big supporter of mid tier gaming, as long as it has mid tier prices.
Outward, Technomancer, Kingdoms of Amaleur and Kingdom Come are gems, and they're personally the good kind of b-tier RPGs. Not a big fan of both Risen 3 and Bound by Flame, although I can definitely say that Risen 3 is a better pirate rpg than Raven's Cry.
And as for Greedfall? Definitely excited for it. Hoping it will be the devs' magnum opus.
Elex is pretty decent, but extremely difficult at first until you level up a lot and get better gear. I died countless times from the start. Just stick with it and keep doing quests, often times running away is necessary.
