- "Don't believe the hype"
Released in 24 April 2012 this game lack 1280x1024 screen option. No proper graphic control, just as a regular console game. Just don`t bother to seek AA or AF options. If you have high-end computer you will not found an option for better visual. Poor graphic engine, poor quests, obviously a game delayed for too long. At least with few years. For a console game it isn`t so bad. But the body structure of the playable charackter annoyed me all the time. Honestly. Worse than Risen 1 in any meaning.
Sword fighting is hard. Often very hard. While musket player is easy enough so at the end perhaps the difficult is average. Probably. After finished the game for 3rd time I still found no more than pistol to be made. The whole voodoo thing is useless for any combat situation.
WHO was the genius who make sword and sorcery game into firearms game? Very, very bad person.
The games aren`t video clips people. It`s THE gameplay.
Risen 2: Dark Water - huge expectations, poor presentation.

While dumbed down from the original, this game retains what all PB games have had in the past, a heart.

An RPG truly old school, if you like pirates and the gothic series give this one a go.
