    Great game, very fast at least the version 1.6 on my 8800 GTS (compared to Oblivion), a lot of action, greatly balanced, no bug so far, more variety of landscape than Oblivion.

    Combine a freeroaming western RPG in the quality of Oblivion with an interesting multiplayer - and you´ll find an outstanding game!

    Combines the best aspects of Oblivion and Fable, with a touch of Diablo in there too for good measure. Remarkably similar to Gothic III. Much better than any of the aforementioned, frankly. The best game I've played in the last two or three years.

    This game may have had problems when first released, but I give it top scores for being a memorable and engaging RPG. The enemies were diverse, the world diverse, and the "mount" options fun. This game never got repetitive. I've played it twice, and am thinking about reinstalling for a third go round. I think this one got short changed because people compared it to Oblivion.

    This game has amazing game-play and graphics, but there seems to be various animation bugs and normal bugs. I have the game for the Xbox, and i'v played for more then 10 hours, and the game seems to have its ups and downs, but if you played it for at least 1 hour, you might find yourself addictive to it.

    For me this game is just as much FUN as any other RPG I have ever played. Have I played others that looked better? Of course but it's a really deep RPG experience so for me the graphics and framerates don't matter to me.

    First impression is bad because of lack of graphical detail especiallyin faces - but then the experience gets richer and richer the more you travel the world - and then you realize that the atmosphere is great, there are a lot of great items, interesting plot, great sidequest and some real graphical gems at times/in parts....try it!

    I expected this game to be sort of substandard based on the semi-mediocre reviews. I have been playing this for weeks now and the game just gets better. This game is epic and deeper than any other game I have ever played. The world has 35 km of playable area and an amazing weather and effects system. This game is epic to play and experience and is definitely one of the best games of 2007.

The game offers so many possibilities that's it almost feels like a second life you start in Antalor, the world of Two Worlds. I bought the game on Steam and started playing with version 1.6. Although I played for hours not a single bug occurred. The game runs perfectly smoothly with maximum graphic details (Core2Duo 6550, 7900 GTX). I highly recommend the game for all players who love role playing games in a non-linear open world!… Expand

    To be honest, I think most people who give this game mediocre or bad ratings were just overchallenged, because it is not just a simple hack & slay game, or a watered-down RPG like Oblivion.

I personally couldn't play this game below Hard setting because honestly, it is too easy and lacks any kind of challenge due to automatic resurrections and no penalties. But on Hard, you have a real sense of adventure travelling this wonderful world, and the combat becomes really tactical. You'll have to carefully plan your strategies, attack and retreat, change your weapons, get your timing right... it's a great challenge, yet it never feels unfair or unbeatable. People these days seem to expect from any RPG that they can just barge through it, mow down thousands of enemies and see the ending. This is not what it's about. It's about the journey to get there. And it's about literally getting lost in the game world. The story and scenario might be a bit generic, but Two Worlds have everything else. I must add that I only played the fully patched v1.7 version. But when I see people writing about unfair difficulty, terrible graphics, bad controls, I wonder what game they have played. It's not the Two Worlds I am experiencing just now. If you're thinking about playing this game, don't care about the bull that is written about it at some places, and give it an unbiased chance. Because most of the downsides people mention are just flat out lies, probably written by players who were frustrated because this is not one of those games that you can rush through and win without any trouble.… Expand

    Frist impressions are not great but put more than 5 hours into the game and its strengths as an action RPG begin to show. I dont give a 9 score to a game easily. Note that that the latest patch is needed to enjoy the game since the game was quite unbalanced before the last patch. Folks who give low scores didnt play the game for long and/or didnt have the latest patch.

    The first few hours of the game were quite boring, but after that, it kept geting better and better. This game even has some features that are better than Oblivion.

You can't just run into a crowd of 20 enemies and expext to win. You have run away sometimes, wait for them to split up, or think of something else. I love the alchemy system and how you can create your own potions. The only reason i give this a 9 and not a 10 is the mediocre voice acting. But if you ignore it, this game should be a very fun experience. I recommend you get this game on steam, it costs less and you wont have to drive to the store. Can't wait for the expansion!… Expand

    The dialogue and voice overs are laughably bad, but that's the only negative so far. I've had no technical issues and the game is quite fun to play. The world is large, the graphics show a pleasing attention to detail, and the gameplay is tried and true Diablo-style adventuring. Don't mind the naysayers; this game is, for the most part, very well done.

You will spend many hours doing great side quests and many many more following the storyline missions too....

You kill stuff, collect, create, improve your gear (weapons and armors), healing apparatus, quest for the main story or subquest the many side quests for fame and glory, etc... For those who wonders if it is a linear game, it is nonlinear to the end. 2 Worlds is pretty much like Elder Scrolls series games, except for 2 apparent things; You can fight on a mount (horses, tamed creatures that got legs), plus the combat system is similar to Neverwinters series, an automated fighting sequence in which you have total control of the action, and not like the ackward 'manual' fighting in Elder Scrolls series, being the very reason I dropped Elder Scrolls entirely. It is catching dust on my archives now. On the downside of 2 Worlds is the fact that you can only play vs other players via internet up to 8 players in the world instead of the massive online games out there. Oblivion may get an overhyped review, but to me, it's a piece of crap compared to 2 Worlds. Nuff said.… Expand

In 2007 this game was a hit to rpg in the world. He have nice graphic (good in 2007) More equipments and horses. And the most important.......you can fight on the horse!!!!

    Great progression system, interesting world, very good character skill system, it's basically a game similar to Gothic and for me this is the biggest compliment there can be.
    I sunk 40 hours into it.

    Once you've updated to 1.5, its as good as it can get! A very adictive and fun RPG wich is its own game. Do not make the mistake to compare Two Worlds with Oblivion or Gothic 3 and enjoy it for what it is.

    Overall, we were mostly frustrated while playing this game. Chalk it up to a poorly optimized engine, a dull and generic fantasy world, all drawn from an exceedingly overused gameplay concept.

    Two Worlds is worth a play, but only if you've exhausted the competition. And invested in ear plugs for when the characters start talking. [Aug 2007, p.88]

    Whilst not groundbreaking, Two Worlds offers some decent fantasy gaming. It's just a shame for the game that there's others out there that do the 'open world' RPG thing better.
