    Wow this game. I've never played a Risen game before. But wow.

    This game is plain awful. The voice acting sounds like it's from a 2005 game. The sound and animations are probably the worst I've ever seen in a game. Sometimes the music just disappears right in the middle of cutscenes. The texture looks like something from a PS2 game. The game is way to bright and the graphics are the

Sometimes the music just disappears right in the middle of cutscenes. The texture looks like something from a PS2 game. The game is way to bright and the graphics are the same as on PS3. Really, the only thing this game offers is 1080p (Atleast I think??).

    Oh, and you can break the game in the first 10 minutes by glitching into a tree. This has to be the worst game I've ever played! There is nothing positive or good about it! Stay away from it!

    What a disappointment the 'enhanced version' is. 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.What a disappointment the 'enhanced version' is.

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 Expand

    The game is horrendous in every way the graphics sucks, the controls sucks, and just the combat system itself is one of the worst I've ever experience,

    Risen is one of those franchises where I don't understand how it keeps getting sequels, Risen 1 was awful and Risen 2 was nothing special either and yet it doesn't only get a 3rd game it gets a remaster. How do they get money for this, there are some gems from time to time such as characters but there is just too much crap to give a damn about the game, the map is the second game's map butRisen is one of those franchises where I don't understand how it keeps getting sequels, Risen 1 was awful and Risen 2 was nothing special either and yet it doesn't only get a 3rd game it gets a remaster.

And leveling up is tedious and too convoluted, you need to meet too many "requirements" to advance any of the useful skills. Every single quest, even the early ones, you run into enemies that get 3 whacks at you before you can even get in one, even if you're dodging and blocking, and you nearly always end up surrounded by multiple enemies doing the same thing. It truly takes all the fun out of what could have been a fun game, and makes it just annoying. Gothic and Gothic 2 are two of my favorite games ever...they started hard, but advancement was much better, and worth going through. This is not that. Expand

    I was actually enjoying this poor man's Skyrim until the second lame-ass sea monster battle off the coast of Kila. After this waste of time fight, there is a blue screen of death. Played through the painfully boring fights again and again...blue screen every time. I literally can't finish the game. How **** lame is that?

    Risen 3: Titan Lords - Enhanced Edition is a charming RPG full of things to do, showing up on the PlayStation 4 as the best console version. However the task of remastering is not optimal, the frame rate is fickle and graphical improvements can not hide the limits of a graphics engine overtaken by more recent productions. Combat system is still problematic, undermined by lag and questionable choices, and various bugs that affect the quality of gameplay. If you are willing to tolerate the limitations of lower production, and perhaps you have also appreciated Risen 2: Dark Waters, you may find satisfaction in this third installment.

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

    There is fun to be had here, but honestly, you have to be willing to overlook some pretty major issues to get the best from this charming but undeniably mediocre RPG.
