I want to first say that I purchased this title based mainly on the reviews that were given before the release. Just before my purchase arrived, I took another glance at the reviews just to get a little more excited and was very disappointed to find that all of the 8/10 and 9/10 had dropped drastically and were now replaced with 1/10 and 2/10. After a long day of reading them all I came to the conclusion that you are either going to love this game or hate it. I received my game and popped it in with the highest expectations imaginable. After the initial story is given, it is time to take control of your character. I felt the graphics were sub-par for a 2007 release of an XBOX 360 game. I was a HUGE fan of Oblivion and had read a few reports that this game was "Oblivion on steroids"; well that statement is absurd. The graphics are choppy, character control is sloppy, and the fighting looks like a third-person fighter of the Sega Genesis era. The inventory system leaves a LOT to be desired as well. It is very cumbersome I did give this game the benefit of the doubt though because some friends told me to wait about 10 hours into the game before I really cast judgment. After 26 hours of game play and finishing the game, I was still waiting for it to "get better". It obviously is not a 1/10 or 2/10 but this game is a FAR cry from being anything more than 5 out of 10, TOPS! It does have some fun parts but this genre is better left to the professionals at Bethesda Softworks. Twin Peaks missed a few key ingredients to making this any serious competition for any other game of this genre. The single biggest standout problem for me was the terrible in game conversation. The characters looked like paper mache when you were involved in a conversation, the voices were laughable and the plot was rather dry and boring. If you have a spare 26 hours to blow on nothing better as I do, then by all means, give it a shot, otherwise save yourself that pain.Read full review
Two Worlds honestly did not strike my fancy. If you're a die-hard rpg game-player, I would give this game a chance...but I recommend renting it first. It was a bit too complicated for me. The camera angles were odd, the font for the conversations too small, the dialogue way confusing. I'm assuming this game has some interesting depth to it, but it did not hold my interest long enough to find out for sure. If you like a mild to what I thought was difficult challenge, try this game out. I also made the mistake (based on the description of the game) that this would be like Fable. It's not, really. I found myself disappointed.
I purchased this game after seeing several screenshots and reading that it was supposed to be, "Oblivion on Steroids." Two Worlds is Oblivion dying of a massive heroin overdose, and I mean that in the worst possible way. I did thouroghly complete the game, and got 950/1000 gamerscore points, because in spite of all of the flaws, there were aspects of the game that I really liked, it had great potential. The flaws were numerous ranging from a cumbersome user-interface to an unbelievably aggravating quest system, with multiple colored dots appearing on your HUD and no quick way to distinguish which one you were supposed to be traveling to, and when I would try to read the quest in the pause menu, it was smashed into less than a third of my screen, with a portion of it being cut off of my square 27-inch TV. I have one of the most generic TV's ever made, and not only does the game not display correctly, I could find no way to adjust the display. The magic aspect was also a huge letdown. The game claims you can customize your own spells, but this means that you can add one of five or six power-up cards to the limited number of spells the game has. Creatures you summon have animation flaws and are physically unable to attack enemies. I could go and on with flaws that annoyed me, but I'm done with this game. I'm merely trying to warn you of what a mistake it is to purchase this game. If you're reading this and haven't played Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, then that's one you should really be checking out. I will give Two Worlds one thing, it had really good lightning...so...If you have a fetish for occasional video game lightning strikes and are willing to overlook a shoddy, rushed product, I suppose this is the game for you.Read full review
This game is like putting Diablo and Obilivion and Assains Creed together, it takes awhile to build your character, but once you do you will find yourself galloping across the country side killing everything from bandits to wolfs to bears and more. this game is well put together and you will find yourself playing for hours and only thinking it was a few minutes. The weapons that you can get from fights can be matched with like weapons to creat stronger more powerful weapons. bad part is it can only be embued with one gemyour choice so if you don't like what it does you can't take it back. This game will depend on how you live your charactor each game plays out differently. take your time and enjoy the game. don't rush in and kill everything as you may need them later. general rul of thumb if they attack you kill them if not try to talk to them they have info that can be very useful (most of the time, but not always). making potions can be trickey so start off slow and work your way up is the easiest way to go. it takes at least two of the same items to make something. some hurt you others hurt others. put 10 small life potions get a super potion that really packs a puch for your health. same with mana. the pot will only hold ten of anything so experiment and see what you get. this game does have an end but I really don't want it to end as the scenery is beautiful for a game and the fights are fun. Dirty fight tactics are cool to (throw a little dirt in your enemies eys pull down their shied makes for a good fight. I give this game a 8 to 9 out of 10. there is NO SUCH thing as a TEN but I think this is close. I bought it and I am glad I did as I have had hours and hours and hours of fun with this game and my charactor is very very tough now and having fun kicking butt. EnjoyRead full review
I play a lot of RPG games and have alays been a big fan of even the corniest RPG's and the idea behind this one is pretty good but they didnt spend any time on the graphics engine it looks like it was made for just the regular xbox not the 360 and the user interface on the game ( maps, inventory, spells, quest log etc.) is not very easy to use and kind of confusing anyways the game is worth it if you can get it at a good price like under $15.00
