Two Worlds III in Development

I recently replayed Two Worlds … but honestly forgot whether or not I liked TWII ..

I tried to replay it a couple of years back. I got a lot further than I did the first time but, ultimately, I got bored and stopped. There was a big mod I included that added some nice things to the game.

It had a really unique 3D Vision setup. Normally, 3D is done so that distant options make your eyes go parallel, just like the real world. This one set distant objects to be at screen depth and everything else to pop out of the screen. It SHOULD have looked like the entire world was in a little box between your nose and the screen but that's not how it appeared. It still looked like distant objects were distant! Freaky psychology for sure - like proving that you can't see color in your peripheral vision. Unfortunately, they dropped 3D Vision support in one of the updates.

I've heard mostly bad things about the first game. I got up to the final boss on TW2, and I couldn't beat it. Up to that point it had been a bit rough around the edges but mostly fun. Kind of ruined the game for me. Another thing that bugged me was that one of the faction quest lines was completely broken on PS3, so I couldn't progress it. But a third game would definitely have potential.

Maybe they should rename like with Raven's Cry….Pumpin' (it) Real.

I haven't played a ton of the two Two Worlds games, but I watched my dad play them a lot. I have to say I like some aspects of 1 better than 2. 1 had a huge open world, while 2 had some open areas it was ultimately smaller and even linear in spots.

The Olde English or whatever voice stuff from the first game is legendary (if for mostly all the wrong reasons ), but I think it gives the game charm. The third game will be interesting to watch develop, if just for the fact that it will give my dad a new RPG to play (maybe a console release or something??).

I liked the first better than the second, really. I just couldn't find much fun in the second game for whatever reason.

Haha - yeah, while I get that the 2nd game is 'better', I love the first game much more than it deserves …

I don't think the 2nd game in a series is automatically "better", though. They're really different games in this case.

And Zloth, my dad and I play a lot of RPGs. When we can't co-op a game sometimes I will chill and watch him play a game he likes or help him with it, etc. That said, I played a chunk of the original Two Worlds and thought it was better than what I saw of the second game. Second game had cool things but I like the "Oblivion Killer" that the first game is (or advertised as).

Ah, that makes me feel better! (Well, somewhat better. Pittsburg just pulled ahead.)

Pittsburgh is our team, yo. Home state and all.

Heck of an end to that GB/DAL game. Best path is ATL winning and then we beat KC + NE next week.

Ghaaa! First you stick this song into my head, then peck my football team to death?? I'll get you Fluent! And your little dog, too! Khahahahahhaaa!

<Poof!>

I think this one is a bit better, though.



Pay..the..court..a fine..or serve..your..sentence! Good game, by the way. Playing New England is going to be rough.

The Patriots just need to FORFEIT…FOR-FOR-FOR-FOR-FORFEIT!

…

FORFEIT!

Ugh, no!

Flyyyyy fly up in the skyyyy! Flying monkeys flyyyyyy, sooooo hiiigh they flllyyy to Forxborough and knock all those Steeler field go attempts out of the skkkyyyyyyy!

OH! <Ahem> So yeah, some people like the original Two Worlds better and some like the newer one.

Couldn't get into the 2nd one - felt clunky and closed.

The first one was open, large, and enjoyed the combat, crafting and exploration. Oh and the music - it was very good and moody. Now if they can just re-master the dialog so that one can make sense of what is happening, it would be an instant hit!

That's how I'd describe them as well. Didn't mind the clunky so much as the closed. The Savannah area in 2 is quite large but the rest of the game felt much more enclosed compared to 1. Two Worlds 1 was essentially a giant open map. Huge map, as in you could get lost and just wander around for hours killing, looting and crafting. A lot of the later parts of 2 also got downright linear.
