XXLGaming | Two Worlds II Review

XXLGaming writes, "Two Worlds II is finally hitting North American shores. The game is definitely miles ahead of the original when it comes to gameplay and technical issues. Is it perfect and without issues or flaws? No, but it should satisfy RPG fans until Dragon Age 2 gets here."

Playing this right now. 3 hours in and quite impressed. Graphics are STUNNING, great music, really cool magic and crafting systems, interesting sidequests, decent control in combat... voice acting is not great but not taking away from the experience either.

So happy to have a "next-gen" RPG to play.

And seriously, stunning. Find some HD screenshots of this game maxed out. If I get around to uploading anything on youtube i'll throw up a link.

^^ applies to PC ver. btw. Haven't played the 360 ver.

pr0digyZA5212d ago

awesome thanks, I have seen some screens and it does look pretty, I have a feeling that when I play this game then this would be the sort of score it would get.

A LIVING LEGEND5212d ago

Anyone played the PS3 version of this?
I am thinking of getting it but some user reviews/impressions would be :)

Booyah5212d ago

I agree. I would like a console review... since the 1st one was bad... I mean really bad... I'm taking some precaution here.

"While it may not stand up to the likes of an RPG such as Oblivion or Dragon Age"

i simply stopped reading here. those two count as biggest rpg failures in my book. oblivion was THE most boring experience i ever had.

and since my fellow demon's souls enthusiast already bought two worlds 2 and says it is awesome, i'll simply stick with that and buy it

drosera15212d ago

Agree with you 100%. Having played both Oblivion and Dragon Age Origins, i can't see why people go nuts for them. Like you said, Oblivion was boring as hell, and Dragon Age Origins looked horrific, especially for consoles, but it wasn't much better on PC. I have imported Two Worlds 2 for Xbox 360 and love it, in my opinion it is leaps and bounds ahead of Oblivion, which it should be, given Oblivion's age.

blahblah5209d ago

yeah, counting the days. 4th feb for me preordered.

and since i don't really have any expectations from that game, i doubt it could be bad. i just hope it will be decent filler while waiting for project dark or demon's souls 2. same pleasant surprise for me was venetica. really old school action rpg which seems clunky at first, but the better you get with action, the better game is. but since i just got platinum there, i can't wait for two worlds 2. i'm just wondering if servers are separated for pc/360/ps3. i'm getting mine for ps3, but few friends bought it for 360. i guess i'll have to wait 7 days and see;)

After Nine Years, Two Worlds II Gets Final Single-Player Expansion Next Month

Topware Interactive will deliver the final piece of single-player DLC for its 2010 RPG Two Worlds II early next month.

I enjoyed this game on my X360, much better than the first one. Sucks we have to wait so long for TW3. I hope they port this game to PS4/X1 in the meantime, especially after all these updates and new expansions. Would certainly help build some hype for the third entry, at least a little.

rawshack1993d ago

Yes it's a very underrated games I'm all so hoping it gets port to ps4 one day

MadLad1993d ago

Guess they're officially done milking the only passable game they've released. They can always rename Raven's Cry again and pull a couple more sales from the unknowing public.

Played this on PS3 it wasn’t bad for a B game but in no way did it “offer an array of unique approaches to classic game elements” and sure as hell didn’t push any envelopes. Why release this multiplayer so many years later ? They should re-release for this gen consoles for 19.99 with the updates

winter_hill2443d ago

I enjoyed this game, much better than the first one. With Two Worlds 3 coming next year, I would love to see a remaster of this on current gen.

lol what ? i thought this 2010/2011 game was dead already and now they are adding micro transactions ?? at least as the article said they are adding dlcs.

MadLad2874d ago (Edited 2874d ago )

From the same people that provided me a review copy of Raven's Cry then, when I gave the game a 1 due to the fact I found it unfinished, threatened me with defamation (nothing ever happened there).
Then, when they re-released the game on Steam as "Vendetta" claimed everything was fixed (even though it wasn't broken in the first place, right), but then refused to give me code for the re-release.

That re-release sits at a highly negative status on Steam, with most claiming they can't even run the game.
Just saying.

TheColbertinator2874d ago

Raven's Cry was broken. Everything gaming shouldn't be.

MilkMan2874d ago

Huh? I thought this game was done and done?
