Personal review

Un juego de rol con un manejo de acción muy directa, muy cercano a hack and slash como el Rune o el Heretic II, pero con un mundo por explorar más o menos a tu aire.

Aunque sus elementos podrían haber formado un buen juego, un manejo deficiente y un mundo terriblemente poco creíble (algo en lo que ayudan los actores de voz y escenas, de pésima calidad), así como unos menús y un menú de acción rápida muy mejorables, lo convierten en una experiencia tan confusa como repetitiva.

Si que destaco el sistema de fabricación y fusión de objetos, muy sencillo de entender y utilizar.

4 de 10

P.S.: De todas formas si decides jugarlo/comprarlo y al ejecutarlo tienes algún problema de compatibilidad (como que se cierre nada más lanzarlo), busca el instalador de "Nvidia PhysX 9 Legacy" en internet.

A powerful force churns silently - weaving a secret plot of fear and destruction. In the end one of the Two Worlds will remain. It is up to you to save the world ...or destroy it!

Story
The world changed when Aziraal, the god of war, was slain in the huge battle long ago. The hordes of Orcs lost their divine leader and were forced to withdraw to the southern wastelands. Now, thousands of years later, the location of Aziraals tomb is still unknown, well hidden by other gods who did not dare to entrust the secret to mere mortals. But a fragile peace between the civilized races and the hordes is now at stake. When the dwarven mining expedition discovered an ancient temple dedicated to an unnamed deity - all of the world's most powerful factions saw it as a possible clue to the place of Azriaal's burial ground. A silent war has now begun and it will soon ignite the fires that will lead to the holy crusade of the Orcs. However, the real danger lies somewhere else. A powerful force churns silently – weaving a secret plot of fear and destruction. In the end, it is their goal that only one of the Two Worlds remains.

Gameplay
"Two Worlds" combines the extremely dynamic and sophisticated combat system with the meaning and freedom of exploration exceeding the accomplishments of other games of the genre. To attract the mass audience, the complexity of the game will be achieved mainly through a variety of meaningful choices while the User Interface will be simplified.

They are free to experiment with different organizations and benefit from all of them. All characters can learn any skill. There is also a challenge for many guilds to keep their knowledge a secret. Players will have to earn their respect and trust to lay hands on the most powerful of skills.
