Two Worlds - Retrospective @ Wow 24/7

Well I never thought I would ever read an article that calls the original Two Worlds RPG the best bad game of all time, but a site called Wow 24/7 did this week.

Ok. Two Worlds is a weird game. But that’s fine, because that’s why it’s worth talking about. It didn’t sit with critics all too well on its release back in 2007, but take a quick look at its GoG page and you’ll find glowing review after glowing review. There’s a surprising amount of people who seem more interested in bashing the likes of Oblivion rather than reviewing Two Worlds, as if Two Worlds was done some great injustice by being not as good as that game. I’m particularly fond of one gallant reviewer’s opinion that people who didn’t like it “felt threatened by the game’s scope.” As it happens, along with many people, I did like it – but it is terrible.
