Risen 2

Quest guides don't noobify a game - du-uh. It helps track multiple quests esp over large maps. You don't need quest guides for action rpgs like demons souls and diablo - which is pretty linear. But for open world rpgs quest guides are a must.

no no no please don't noobify the game with stuff like quest guides. leave that to companies like bioware.

 

+ f**king 1. The best thing about Risen was that it made you figure out everything by yourself. Sure anyone coming from a Bioware or Bethesda RPG would give up on it in the first hour but it really made Risen stand apart from the rest of the fantasy RPG crowd. The difficult was just right and it wasn't just about mindlessly slaying enemies for XP and going from point A to B and fetching items. I really hope Risen 2 maintains that.

 

 

@Joy, agreed! However almost every year is great for RPG fans. But it's a shame that most folks don't look beyond the Biowares and Bethesdas.

the screens they've released for risen 2 honestly look like artwork to me, but if they are in game, i'm not convinced they are better. they seem kind of less realistic.

 

you're right though, 2011 is a good time for rpg gamers. so many nice games to pick from, if only i could afford them all :(

yep, the exploration of the island was one of the best things about the game. they packed it full of content too, so every single area had something interesting going on. i really hope they keep it like that and don't resort to hand holding.

 

as for looking beyond bioware/bethesda, i just picked up drakensang river of time from steam. have you tried that yet? haven't had a chance to play it at all, but i did load it up and it looks absolutely gorgeous. it's also holding a very decent 84 metacritic rating. and it's a budget priced title too. check it out if you get a chance.

Awesome! Saw you playing River Of Time on Steam the other day. I sorta liked the first one... it was pretty tough but rough around the edges. Never actually ended up finishing it. But if the sequel is an improvement over it then I'm game!
