Two Worlds 2 has to be good, right? I mean, it did get a goty editon. :biggrin:

How can you even THINK of comparing Two Worlds 2 with Skyrim i mean the game really svcks the combat is [censored] voice acting is uhh i dun have words for that and i can go on and on but the game just svcks the only game i can compare to Skyrim is The Witcher 2 and that is a great rpg game.

The difference between Two Worlds and Two Worlds 2 is huge, absolutely huge. I laughed all the time while playing the demo of the first one. But when they started to show videos of the sequal i got really interested. I bought it on release, enjoyed it alot for awhile and then soon i just noticed some really big downers , really ruining alot of the fun for me. The combat started to become boring after awhile, sure it was at times still challenging but i just didnt find any fun in it anymore. The Savannah area is by far the worst location in a RPG ever in my opinion, just horribly boring and ugly. I have yet to finish the game. It doesn't come close to the greatness of Oblivion for me...when playing Oblivion i have this certain kind of feeling, hard to explain...but i'm totally IN that world, Two Worlds 2? Nah...none of that. Two Worlds 2 is FAR from a bad game though.

The original Two Worlds was good, or at least I thought so. There were even people who tried to claim it was an "Oblivion killer", which later proved to be a laughable thing to say. I was all set to grab TW2 until they started in with all the lies relating to the release and their terrible treatment of fans on their official forums when people began to complain.

Southpeak ruined the Two-Worlds franchise with the way they published and marketed it...

Southpeak was not the developer.

Yes, let's compare a series that improves over time to one that gets worse over time. :thumbsup:

Realistically, they can't be compared as none here have played Skyrim. But on a different note, when looking at the developers for the Two Worlds franchise and the Elder Scrolls franchise, it seems likely Skyrim will be "better" based on the merit of the developer and comparison between them. And I use quotation marks because it boils down to personal opinion and taste, and not facts, so it will not be factually better. But in it's own right, Two Worlds II was really damn entertaining.

Which is which, though? That may or may not be a rhetorical question.

You know deep down :shifty:

THIS!

Personally I think TES is getting better and of the TW series, I think that the original was the better one; but that's not always a popular opinion, at least not with some of the more outspoken folk...

Agreed.

TW II took out or downgraded some of the best features of Two Worlds, instead of improving them (Mounted combat, Alchemy, Weapon/armor stacking, conversations, open-worldness)

But... while I like Two Worlds, TES will always be better, because Two Worlds lacks playable catgirls

Isn't that exactly what TES has been doing with each subsequent release? Also, the Alchemy in TW2 is still leagues more complex than the TES equivalent. The gimping of some of those other things is unfortunate, but I see less streamlining from TW1 to 2 than I do from TES 3 to 4, and from what I've seen, from 4 to 5 as well.

Aye.

Why even try to make a comparison when Skyrim is 2.5 months from being released? You can't tell how much you're going to like a game from screenshots and lists of features (at least I can't after gaming for 27 years). I loved Arena, Daggerfall, and Morrowind. While Oblivion was a gameplay improvement over Morriwind, I thought most other aspects of it were a step back (content, story, art, character progression, etc.) I'm not making any judgements about Skyrim until I get to play it. I was psyched about Oblivion before it came out and I ended up being disappointed in it. :shrug:

Skyrim will be a much better game than TW2.

Although TW2 still looks a lot better than Skyrim. Foilage in that game is better than Crysis.

Kind of hard to compare when Skyrim isn't even out, dont you think? You ask some people to compare Oblivion before it was released to some other game in its day and you would have gotten a "Oblivion kicks that games ass". You ask now, and at least some people would answer different.

No... only to the Morrowind fans with their heads stuck up their ass too far to see the incredible additions to the series.

Spears + Crossbows were a one-off thing, that have never been in a game before or since Morrowind. Along with several other "Must-have" features.

What incredible aditions? There's not many. Half of the features we probably won't see like we didn't see radiant AI. So instead of improving the broken features like spell making we get a "dynamic" spell system which just looks the same as all the previous games. And now the game is left with health regen and no degration. Game sure sounds incredible right now...

I found TW2 to be incredibly boring.
