User Rating: 8 | Two Worlds II X360
This game is unique to the core of rpg's it has no similarities to "two worlds" but really delivers.

Story:

The game sets out as you imprisoned in some dungeon? struggling to get out, the only hope of ecape to save your sister will be you escaping it sets out similar to oblivion but when you admire the rich detail with in the game you want to explore more. and so you do the fight sequences feel good in cut scenes especially with "headphones on" but the story's not the reason to enjoy this game it's the vast exploration that you enjoy. look out in to the sea

"fish brimming" "clouds forming" "tree's blowing" it's i living world pick up barrels throw it, stealth kill enemy's, it very much falls down the line between "thief" on the old xbox console to environments between "red dead redemption"to"assassins creed" where story interaction feels open and not restrained to the screen giving your character breathing room to move around while deciding on conversational inputs.

Game play:

any game these days occur bad bugs and so on but shouldn't be enough to stop any one from enjoying this game.

game play is very straightforward not so as in simple minded compared to games like "fable" and so on, it's not in any way like witcher but more "arcadia 3" customizing gear such as wizardry or even melee can be decided with the d-pad. once selected your character instantly changes there are 3 presets for 3 classes
"mage"warrior"archer"

This game how ever seems weak on abilities like special abilities you would see in "bio ware games" all magic abilities fall down familiar paths along the lines elder scrolls, but don't be fooled, this is certainly a game to lose your self in as much love has certainly gone in to making this game. it does somewhat graphically compare to "red dead redemption" even tho they are 2 completely separate games and shouldn't hinder the experience.


Sound:
sound cuts out occasionally cuts out as they seem scripted like for example when you play a song and it suddenly ends resulting in new track starting, but overall the sounds are humble and complement the environment you're exploring but doesn't effect the game as much. the voice acting can be pain at some point especially when jumping over things, "sounds similar to a injured fawn in pain or guy outta breath"

Graphics:

graphics are crisp sharp and vivid and kinda actuates the world around you especially for consoles tree's look really good, oceans texture and color are real life like, the clouds look volumetric as in they explode when they vanish or disappear and is rare in most games as ive come to experience this more on pc, towns buildings all complement the world.

Multiplayer:

Most rpg's pretty much are non-existent in this area as it can contradict the game being dull and boring and a much more risky endeavor but it feels good and also adds more value the the game.

Each mode requires you playing coop with others
Death match who who is actually more supreme, similar too
borderlands 1vs1 death match thing if no one understands

Find crystals

And villager building cool!!!

And so on.

Pros:

Really not much to say the story is not 10/10 but it's improved compared to the last, more variety of wildlife to kill then compared to far cry's 2 massive wilderness taming with emptiness, Horses, great physics engine nvidia supported, cute magical elements especially the random stuff you summon rolls down hills rather realistically, mini games to lose your self in, poker dice where the have to make a dice that is 1 plus more then the person your playing against, if one dice falls below 4 you need to roll again until you have better hand similar to "rdr"
Crazy amount of customization and things to collect.

Cons: (ai) can be very aggressive where walking in to battle can result in sudden death but luckily only the strongest chase you down a hill, music mini gameCompares to fables musical composer game where you need impress the crowed this game takes it to a obsurred level where you use the trigger buttons and the inner buttons to hit specific dots at crazy speeds, the easiest would be "Drums" guitar harp and so on, is worth a head ache,
Horse acts weird where jumping is double layered with strutting or galloping confusing nor can you attack while mounted another eye sore, overall the games solid and shouldn't take much away from the adventure

If you like old school rpg's highly recommend it

Final thoughts:
When fighting a hard enemy rely on the trusty bow
And save frequently when playing mini games quickest way to be rich.
