Topware Interactive will deliver the final piece of single-player DLC for its 2010 RPG Two Worlds II early next month.
I enjoyed this game on my X360, much better than the first one. Sucks we have to wait so long for TW3. I hope they port this game to PS4/X1 in the meantime, especially after all these updates and new expansions. Would certainly help build some hype for the third entry, at least a little.
Guess they're officially done milking the only passable game they've released. They can always rename Raven's Cry again and pull a couple more sales from the unknowing public.
Two Worlds II offers adventurers the thrilling experience of a perilous and daring journey throughout a vast magical land. Rich in story, detail and content, 2W2 offers an array of unique approaches to classic game elements that push the envelope for the fantasy RPG genre.
Played this on PS3 it wasn’t bad for a B game but in no way did it “offer an array of unique approaches to classic game elements” and sure as hell didn’t push any envelopes. Why release this multiplayer so many years later ? They should re-release for this gen consoles for 19.99 with the updates
I enjoyed this game, much better than the first one. With Two Worlds 3 coming next year, I would love to see a remaster of this on current gen.

Replies(1)First one was garbage. The second was a janky cheese-fest. And then their follow-up release, Raven's Cry, wasn't even complete at launch; doing so badly they re-released it under a new title more than a year later ... still not complete.
I'm probably in the minority but I loved the second one! I acknowledge that it wasn't a great game but I enjoyed it thoroughly and even platinumed it >_<
The first one was pretty bad, but I enjoyed the second despite its flaws. A bit rough around the edges, but it was a pretty decent RPG.
The first one just had too many big glitches. The second was much smoother and had more polish

Which are you?
"considering that a good percentage of this industry consists of immature idiots who pose as journalists and that a lot of professional journalists are pretentious douchebags these days (not entirely our fault, I suppose – they say never mix business with pleasure)"
Couldn't have said it better! People in the gaming industry take themselves waaaay too seriously. Some journalists act like they are superstars. People need a reality check.... this is gaming! It's entertainment news!
@AI80,
He called himself a douchebag in this article. :P He also encourages gamers to to write about games just to do it for the right reasons. But what he is saying is accurate. The industry has become a joke (was there ever a time when it wasnt?) I also love the fucked that he is plugging a tiny little site on his blog. Jolly good form.

LOL! The internet is the perfect example of a paradox. It's a black hole that will consume mankind.
The great thing about the internet is that anyone can get on it.
The bad thing about the internet is that anyone can get on it.
I think the author done crucify himself with this article. Uh oh....
