Nothing fancy in the majority of them but there are a few unique quests and some unexpected twists on genre norms that I don’t want to spoil for you. The quests in Two Worlds II involve a lot of “fetch this item”, “go and talk to this guy” or “go kill this monster for us” type of stuff. There are tons of sidequests to discover from talking to random NPCs and five different guilds (Warrior, Mage, Thief, Merchant and Necromancer), each of which have their own lengthy questline. An average player will probably spend 25-40 hours on the beefy single player alone if you take the time to explore and most likely even more than that if you are a completionist. The game is an epic open-world action RPG with tons to do and see. Gandohar is stealing power from her to boost his own as ruler of Antaloor and it’s up to you to rescue her and save Antaloor.Īdmittedly, I’ve never played the first Two Worlds because of how shoddy it looked from the numerous videos and reviews I’ve seen but if the beginning of this tale ties into the story of the first game, it was not explained at all and I was left pretty confused for the first hour or so. Some orcs rescue you and take you to the Prophet (who of course is a half naked hot chick with horns) who then explains that your sister is the chosen vessel for Aziraal, fire lord of Antaloor. The story starts off with your character inexplicably strapped to a chair along with your sister by someone named Gandohar. It’s frustrating to see a game that for every positive that it has, there is a negative that counters it. I’m not sure if it was because I’m a sucker for fantasy RPGs but I was highly anticipating this game after watching videos of it in action and all the ways it improved on the not-so secret bomb of the first title. However I came away unimpressed and almost even frustrated because at its core is a deep and fun RPG that’s unfortunately plagued by problems, most of which have all been improved upon from the previous game but still not enough.
I root for it every time, I genuinely want to see it succeed and I can see the heart and the good intentions of trying to please the fans but it falls seriously short in many key areas. Two Worlds II is like the Toronto Maple Leafs for me.
