Gameplayįrom a graphical standpoint, Two Worlds 2 looks good the towns and cities are surprisingly detailed and the world of Antaloor boasts a wide variety of landscapes to explore. Toss in the fact that almost every conversation instance is too long winded and you’ll be happy that Reality Pump added in the “skip dialogue” button. The hero only speaks in a low/monotone voice and repeats much of what he says throughout the game (you’ll hear him say “fair enough” in almost every dialogue instance), and the other character’s dialogues are just as bad. This wouldn’t be a big deal (Oblivion and many other RPG’s are the same way), but the dialogue is just bad. The most unfortunate part about any of the stories in the game is that they’re primarily dialogue driven. Though initially overwhelming, I found these quests to be a redeeming feature of the game because of their variety and interesting storylines. It is here that you are also bombarded by a steady stream of side-quests. As the hero, you are teleported to a small Saharan town with a vague “get to this city” type quest.

Motivated by hopes of getting his sister back, the hero joins the prophet and her clan of orcs to take out the evil mage before he can seize power. It is here that he meets a scantily clad prophet named Cassara, who makes herself out to be Gandohar’s mortal enemy. Shortly after being taken away though, the hero is freed by a band of orcs and teleported to their home base.

He does this in an almost classic super villain manner, and after exposing his full plan, he orders a few guards to imprison the hero forever and ever. In the opening cut scenes, Gandohar unveils his plan to use Kyra to extract some kind of old magic power that could rule all of Antaloor. The hero and his sister, Kyra, are being held captive by an evil mage named Gandohar in his castle. The game takes place five years after the events of the first game.

Platform: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, OnLive, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 In many ways, Two Worlds 2 is the same as its predecessor in terms of shortcomings, but it does offer up some interesting aspects that will grab RPG fans’ interest. Sadly, I returned the game shortly after first starting it up. Coming fresh from the gameplay offered in the 2006 release The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion, I had high hopes that Two Worlds would continue to satisfy my RPG needs. My experience with the game was very similar.
When Reality Pump released Two Worlds in the fall of 2007, the game was noted by many critics as an ambitious game that fell flat due to its overwhelmingly unpolished and glitch-ridden delivery.
