Two Worlds II Twice The Difficulty of other RPG's

User Rating: 4 | Two Worlds II X360
I did not play the original Two Worlds so I can not complare this game to its predecessor, however I can compare it to other RPG's I have played and I found this one to be seriously lacking.

First issue I have with this game is the fact there is no opening tutorial to aide you in figuring out the wide range of menus and options you have to deal with in this game. I found my character at one point in the game amassed with a wide range of weapons, armor, skills, and tools and couldn't not use most of them. My frustration in not being able to equip and use what I felt my Character needed led me to just finally give up on the game. Nothing more frustrating then a game with no tutorial and a guide that is absolutely worthless in telling you how to use what you acquire.

The second thing that annoyed me about this game is the linear game play. They advertise that you will get to make choices; but in reality you are merely along for the ride to do as they lead you to do. There are no real choices in this game that alter the destiny of your Character or the World you are playing in. You are enslaved to the story that they put you in.

Speaking of the story.......it is quite inventive and the graphics of this game are great. However a great invintive storyline can not make up for diffcult game and linear game play. For RPG's this game is one to pass on.
