Most of you already know. This is for those that don't. TWO WORLDS is garbage. I know what you thinking. No, i didn't buy it(thats what dumb friends are for) and yes i was bored. The main plot line is quite literally about... 10 quests. In order to finish them though you must spend some time searching for and completing side quests to get stronger. This is where it actually got somewhat fun.
The exploration is completely open ended. You can access almost any part of the game right from the start. It was great fun for a couple hours.(if you ignore all the problems...way to many to name) I'm going in dungeons, fighting orcs, skeletons, a cyclops and a myriad of other creatures. Im getting sweet weapons, amazing armor, and new spells. Then after hours of doing this you just dont care anymore. You blaze through the storyline. The only guy who has a chance of stopping you is the second to last boss. Who can still kill you in one hit at lv 38 with 14000 life and disgustingly high armor and physical defense and takes an extraordinary amount of damage to kill (took like 10 min with 100 str and a 3k-4.5k damage sword), then the last boss dies in 6 sword swings....unbalanced?
Shit. They might as well add 'Two Worlds' to the dictionary.com definition of the word. Magic sucks ass, even if you focus on it. You can get all the mana in the world but your spells dont ever even compare to what one swing from a katana can do. I fought Demons when i was lv 15 in one dungeon then weak ass skeletons in the later dungeons?!? what?! 95% of the monsters took 1-2 swings to kill. Quests net you, basically, the amount of money you get from killing 2-3 humanoid mobs. I could go on forever, but im trying to make this short.
To summarize, dont play it. The reason I even played the whole way through the thing is for achievements. I traded a bit of my soul, some of my life, and a little bit of pride for 810 G. Is that worth it to you? You make the call.

about me
Hi.
My name is Jarad. I live in Sterling, VA. I work full time in Arlington as an IT support/helpdesk technician for a company called Carlson Wagonlit Travel/SatoTravel. I finish school for Computer Networking in December, which is exciting. Im highly athletic, in addition to loving video games.
My first experience was getting a NES for X-mas and playing 'Duck Hunt' 1 inch from the screen,(HAHA, give me a break i was young) and ive never looked back. My favorite games of all time include SOTN, FF tactics/6, King of Dragons(SNES), any NES Castlevania/MegaMan(not using boss weaknesses, using megabuster for them all, very rewarding!) I can play almost any game, and if i start it i usually need to beat it to feel accomplished. I am definately more a fan of old school games where you actually had to figure things out and attempt stages and bosses more than once, although i guess its nice that the learning curve is lessened nowadays in order to expand the industry consumer base. Its all good.
Message me..im always down for some live play.
Currently i am playing Halo 3, The Orange Box, Call of Duty 4(greatest multiplayer ever?), Guitar Hero 3, and Assassin's Creed. Will the games ever stop coming?!
