This game has the most boring and cringe worthy story of all ♥♥♥♥ing time. I hate the characters I hate the plot I hate the fact that orcs are good guys (Cause they are evil in every other universe other than WoW but I dont like WoW so whatever) I hate the character you play as. BUT, this game has some mechanics that really outshine its competition. The magic system is the best and most fun to use I have ever seen, as you dont just learn spells, you craft them, and if you invest a lot in magic, you can have multi-stage spells. For instance, I made a spell that starts as a powerful homing fireball that blasts an aoe of fire that spawns a jackel-man warrior on impact. I also made a spell that turns me invisible and allows me to walk on water, which is very useful in the late-game. The fact that you can summon an undead army to fight your foes is awesome! Especially when you are going up agaisnt a large group of enemies, because its like two clashing armies in some battles. TO BAD THE GAME CANT HANDLE THIS AND ♥♥♥♥ING CRASHES EVERYTIME A BIG BATTLE STARTS. The biggest problem with this game is that for every awesome badass thing this game has to offer, there is always something holding it back. The game crashes whenever a big battle starts, the story campaign forces you to do quests in an area of a big open world map before going to the next section of the world, dialog options dont matter because you are either accepting or declining the quest given other than in one instance that i can remember, and you fail if you choose the one I would have chosen in real life, as the only evidence against the accused is the supposed victims accusation and nothing more. Aparently thats enough to condemn this man or else the victim KILLS THEMSELVES. Great, I love being wrong for keeping a cool head in tragedy and not calling for the death of a man based on the charges alone AND NOTHING MORE. The armor customization is cool but is held back by a lack of options for dye colors and what can be worn with what, relatively interesting side quests are held back by a lack of explanation or closure. "These gaurds are so devout that they stuck to their posts, even AFTER DEATH!" Why are they still gaurding an abandonded factory in the middle of nowhere? Who cares just kill them! Having a boat and being able to sail around is pretty cool, too bad there is very little to see out at sea. People keep calling you handsome but you never score. The biggest land mass in the game is unaccesible FOR THE ENTIRE GAME AND YOU CAN NEVER ACCESS IT EVER. This game has some truly great ideas, the alchemy is strong and worth a damn, the magic is more than your genereic RPG main-character-learned-fireball! system where YOU the PERSON are learning how to craft truly awesome spells. And its a pretty good loot fest, and has some monsters I have never seen before that are original and not copy-pasted in the game. But again, these things are held back by problems seen for the prepevious game, its buggy (which sometimes actually make this game better as you can bypass some of the BS world checkpoints), the story and characters SUCK, and the combat is just ridiculous. It seeems like there are bits of this game wanting to really break the mold and just go crazy and take you on a wild ride, but the rest of the game is to afraid to take any chances or do anything interesting. So to conclude I would recomend this game to you for around 25$ or 30$ at the most, cause your enjoyment really depends on how much you enjoy magic and how much you can stomach this games short comings. If these people make a third installment I personally will buy it, cause I can almost feel this game trying to spread its wings and sore above most of its competetors. Hell, if they ditched the crap story and just said: "Make you and do what you want, experience this world!" and made this game function properly, I feel like that game might even beat out Bethesda's ELder Scrolls next game. Imagine, a game where you had the potential to be the most baddass mage who could make his own guild and RULE THE WORLD whithout being hampered by some BS story where you take orders left and right and basically be the errand boy of people you could EASILY kill at your whim. I would love a game that just says: "There is a huge, baddass world out there just waiting for you, GO GET EM TIGER!" I dont care who makes that game, I will buy it, and I wouldnt care if was more than 60$, if it delivers, I would still buy it.

It's not as clean and polished as most other games, but it has a lot of great elements taken from games such as Skyrim, Diablo, Assassin's Creed, and many others. It had (and still has with this year's [2016] big update coming) the potential to be a better game than all the rest surprisingly, but it seemed to fall short in many aspects. I love the items, map, NPC interactions, enemies, and especially the leveling and magic systems! Plus the difficulty feels just right and the game is seriously funny as it never takes itself too seriously, but the combat completely falls short in it's glitchiness, and story falls far, far, FAR short as it's simply complete garbage.... but still, the core game has a sort of magic to it that keeps you playing and enjoying it overall.

You can see I've had to say "but" a whole lot in this review after trying to praise Two Worlds II, BUT if you can overlook some of it's shortcomings, and enjoy the parts where it shines, it's a very fun game for $21.99.

Really really wanted to give this a good go, but guess what? It broke at the Prophet and no matter how many reloads it always breaks in the same place. Glad I didn't pay money because even up until that ppoint the game was so on-rails and so badly scripted that I felt like I was a 4 year old playing a Freddie Fish game. Waaaay to easy.

This game is great, sure its different than the first (I liked the first one better) but I would be hard pressed to find a game that looks as good as this, even today (no the Witcher doesnt look this good in my opinion) the creatures, the exploration, sailing, and playing a harp on a tropical island... Even once youve played throught the story, open up the console run around spawn 100s of new higher level creatures from the DLC into single player to level high enough to use end game gear ( since it is really hard to level high enough) Try this game, one of my favorites!

You're as good as dead

First, the game does have its issues. Nothing like running down a hill and taking enough fall damage to kill you, but if you press jump you can take a 50 foot jump with no damage. Just weird and inconsistent. And yes, you have to enter a key when you first run the game or get a DLC for the game, which is unusual and annoying at this point in time.

That being said, the land is interesting and fun, there are tons of creatures, a lot of flexibility with the story line but the biggest plus is the magic system. You make your own spells from components and rearange the components later to suit other needs. For instance I have created spells that shoot out a spray of missiles. The missiles blind when they hit and summon undead warriors where they land. Another shoots a huge spray of fire missiles which bounce around filling an area with fiery death. I've used water walking and feather fall to weasle my way into areas that, later, I realized I was supposed to get to later in the game, yet I was able to make it work.

Another oddity of the game, which from my perspective, Im not sure is a plus or a minus is the multiplayer. It has multiplayer, but unlike other games where you play the same game single and multiplayer the multiplayer game is a different game. Same game mechanics but you gather in a city, and choose a storyline that has nothing to do with the single player game, gather your comrades and play through that scenario. On one hand its extended, unique game play. On the other you cant use the single player character you built up, you dont get to explore the extensive single player world and questlines with a friend and the multiplayer game has much less content. I can still say I've had fun in multiplayer and built up a powerful multiplayer character, but its worth noting that when you read that the game is multiplayer its probably not executed the way you probably think it is.

All in all I've enjoyed it an think its a game well worth exploring.

I will not deny that I have a big problem with making a proper review for Two Worlds II. On the one hand, the game has a lot of annoying shortcomings which ♥♥♥♥ me off because they were already present in first part. On the other hand, over time, this game spreads their wings and becomes a tasty morsel for all fans of unusual quests and collecting a myriad of items, trades, alchemy, etc.. Some little things irritate (eg. A completely custom keyboard shortcuts, poor access to maps, dumb enemies), while others cause a banana on the face (ingenious minigame to open locks, interesting quests). Accents, both the good and the poor ones are distributed in Two Worlds II almost exactly equally. Thus, according to simple mathematics, I should have put the game five points. However, due to some undefined sympathy that I have for these series mercifully I will raise the assessment by one point.

PROS:
• An interesting quests
  
• Solid storyline
  
• Decent graphics
  
• Great cutscenes and videos
  
• Lots of items
  
• Alchemy and crafts
  
• Excellent locks opening
  
  CONS:
  
• Poor interface
  
• Fatal map
  
• Weak diary
  
• Unusual keyboard shortcuts
  
• AI errors
  
• Horse riding
  
• Minor bugs

The worst game of all time!!!! Ranger class SUCKS SO BAD you can't choose on which keys you want your skills and this make the Ranger class unplayable seriously the combat in this game is SOOOO shity that I have ♥♥♥♥ my pants 10 times and get salty and rage quit seriously if you want a good game buy anything else EXCEPT THIS ONE I dont even understand how a dev team was proud of it and make a release I dONT ♥♥♥♥ING UNDERSTAND HOW this game exist and HOW they have put the money and time on that ♥♥♥♥.

The game crashes a bit too much but other than that the story line and multiplayer is really fun but if you are in the middle of a misson and you crash you have to start all over even if your friend is still in you cant join back

Got this game off of ♥♥♥ cos ♥♥♥♥ paying £14.99 for something that breaks 30 minutes in. After the painfully long intro and god awful animations were over, I got out and almost immeadiately after another mentally damaging cutscene appears and it breaks, (NO ♥♥♥♥ING SUPRISE THERE HM?). This game makes me want to go outside. I would rather go outside and walk around town, than play this game. I paid just under £1 for this game and I feel cheated for my money. I could of gone out and bought a bag of Haribo's and found more enjoyment out of it than a computer program that is meant to keep you entertained. 10/10 Caused severe bowel cancer
