    Sadly, there's nothing really enhanced in this version.

    Enhanced as it may be, Risen 3: Titan Lords is still a very rough experience with too many problems that outweigh its merits.

    Risen 3: Titan Lords Enhanced Edition is an outdated game, with tons of problems, a flawed combat system and some inexplicable game design choices. The atrocious porting for PS4 is the (bad) icing on the cake.

    In a perfect world, remasters and enhanced editions would be reserved for games that fall into one of two categories: classics and underappreciated gems. Unfortunately, Risen 3: Titan Lords - Enhanced Edition is neither.

    Risen 3: Titan Lords – Enhanced Edition carries the original game's problems to the next-gen. One mistake after another, that would need many, many months of updates to make it worth your spare time.

    Risen 3 is stunning, but not for the reasons the developers intended. Frustrating, ugly, broken, irritating, dull -- I cannot recommend this game to a single person. Even if you enjoyed it on PC, there is no way the busted PS4 version is worth a double-dip.

I may be biased because my favorite RPG of all time is Gothic 2 with its expansion. I cannot even say that what others write here about graphics, animation or technical problems would not be true.... but for some reason I still like this game with all of its issues. For comparison, I tried but could not finish Skyrim, neither Witcher 3. I consider them quality games, but I just got bored of them half way through... This game on the other hand still keeps me there, playing it, even when my hero is so strong in the end that no enemy is challenge to me any more.
    The only thing I can imagine is that its atmosphere and immersion turns the tide here.

Risen 3 is a game that has a really interesting world with quite good funny characters but it all is destroyed by really REALLY crap combat. So annoying as it totally ruins the game and makes it unplayable. Honestly I really tried to keep going through it but because combat plays such a massive part of game I had to stop. Traded it in. Combat should have been fixed for this version as that was its biggest criticism when it first came out. Not fixing it shows a company who don't listen or care what the customer what's. For these reasons it deserves a big fat 0!!!! Sorry Full Review »
