    What can I say, this game gets so much hate for it's campy dialogue and out of touch comedy. But it couldn't be farther from the truth about what makes this game so amazing, set aside the fact that there still isn't an RPG with 500+ armor sets and variations of weapons, at the time, for us westerners, you had 2 choices: Oblivion ~ Two Worlds, and while I can easily say they were both greatWhat can I say, this game gets so much hate for it's campy dialogue and out of touch comedy.

    Obviously 2023 standards its ages poorly but back in the day when i played this, it was good!

I was baffled by the atrocious framerate, which essentially rendered the game unplayable, and struggled to understand how I could have even remotely enjoyed a game that performs this badly.

    Two Worlds is just about unplayable by today's standards. I think this is a shame, because I do remember enjoying it when I was younger - there are some RPG systems in the game that I think offer some level of enjoyment, and it is always nice to see an ambitious open-world action-RPG that isn't an Elder Scrolls game try to offer players something innovative. But despite its lofty ambitions, Two Worlds was a mediocre experience on release that is now utter misery to try and subject oneself to.    … Expand

    I had high expectations when the open-world RPG Two Worlds was released. Instantly bought it, ready to sink in an epic fantasy world. I was ridiculously disappointed! The story is very fascinating but everything else, from graphics to voice acting is embarrassing. I really tried to love this game, took my time and surely found some positive aspects. But in the end mostly mediocrity...

    L'interface par exemple est un exemple frappant de non-sens, de même que la présentation globale dont l'ergonomie a elle aussi été jetée aux oubliettes (avec la clé) ; les combats (?!) on en rirait presque (après quelques vodkas) tant ils sont ridicules ; la VF est vraiment limite (même si on a entendu pire dans un certain jeu Capcon il me semble) et les graphismes manquent de lisibilité et de clarté (bien que là aussi, on ait vu bien pire mais on nage ici certainement en eaux troubles à cet égard !).

    Le pire en dehors de cette "histoire" à le petite semaine en guise de campagne principale (qui fait passer le moyen Oblivion pour un modèle d'écriture en comparaison !) c'est que ça rame sans arrêt, soit à vue de nez un petit 20 à 25 im/s des familles qui rend le jeu rapidement injouable en plus de filer la migraine. Sur la 360, je n'avais pas vu "ça" depuis Gothic Arcania, un autre portage console de goret ! Un épouvantable étron donc, à vraiment oublier d'urgence.    … Expand

    7.9 - Although it has many glitches and bugs, the voice acting is hilarious! The world is generally pretty cool as well, with plenty of different monsters and items/weapons and armor. Overall not a bad game like how it is rated.

There are lots of monster to fight in the world which is good. But I hate this game for the combat. I can't get magic to work and there is no curser to use so you cant aim with a bow so you have to hope the arrow hit. Sword play consists of spamming right trigger and you view doesn't lock on so you can't target properly and you can't dodge so that sucks. The game could be better but as it is it's crap… Expand

It is a diablo-clone, single-player mmo, dungeon crawling hacknslash game with lots of quests, level ups and fighting. It is about loot collection and inventory management.

    It is an old skool blast.

    I bought this years ago, but, it was already an under 10 buck bargain. I am reviewing it now because i am currently replaying it and have been re-reading all the reviews. This game is a solid rpg adventure that gives hours of entertainment. That entertainment includes the GREAT voice-acting and Ye Olde English. One of the funniest and most enjoyable aspects is listening and reading the dialogue. I am left laughing out-loud every gaming session and i will never understand those who actually grade this aspect so low. The decision to use panned old english was incredibly wise. The humor within the dialogue is equally great.

    Another great decision was the choice to make enemy difficulty levels static. You will get your azz handed to you all the time if your character is not at a high enough level or doesn't have the right stats/equipment.

    The world is unique with lots to do and the horse and teleport system is perfectly implemented to make this adventure less cumbersome. (Again, this is NOT an elder scroll game where role-playing is the emphasis.) One can easily return to any merchant within the world and sell off their loot.

    Loot management and item stacking is the heart of this game. Money is no issue and there are literally thousands of weapon/armor combinations. Horses are storage chests, you can own them all and they can be relocated anywhere. The alchemy, bomb and spell-casting aspects are done very well and are worthy alternates to the sword and bow archetype. There are lots of skills and levelup point distribution with a respec option. There are many sidequests and faction storylines. And, for the life of me, I do not understand why so many have issues with the map/quest screens. As with all games, once you understand the controls and become familiar with it the negative issues disappear. This game does not hold your hand and the the submenus are actually very informative.

    The negative aspects would include a slow framerate AT TIMES (i have only played it after the updates), the stealth system and the horse controls at times. That's it. (btw, i am not a graphic whore, i don't really up my rating for a game if it has great graphics and the graphics in this game are perfectly fine.) The music and sound is good. The enemies are definitely unique. The alchemy system is very nice and powerful. The stacking is fun. The game is fun.

    Like others I realize what this game is and what it is not. I understand its unique nature in this day and age of gaming where gamers and devs put show OVER SUBSTANCE. This game isn't a great game, but, it does MANY things BETTER than beth or bioware. It doesn't take itself seriously and provides a modern-day open-world sandbox experience that lots of us gamers have been waiting for and NOT receiving in this new age of gaming.

    In closing, two worlds is an unpolished gem that is under ten bucks, is very fun, does many things better than other games and has a hundred hours of content.    … Expand

    Technically despite some average graphics for the time, the framerate is horrible (and don't expect any patch 10 years later), as soon as you move it drops significantly which is already a pain in the ass and can stop you from playing the game.

    Concerning the gameplay the fighting is boring as hell and don't work great, but the other RPG mechanics are okay, the only good point of the game. The map is pretty big but also empty so you'll just walk most of the time. Once again hard to take any joy from playing.

    Finally the story is a basic fantasy story played by some of the worst actors I've ever heard in my life, honestly go watch some youtube videos they're so bad it's funny. If despite all this flaws you want to finish the game it will length at least 30 hours which is good for a RPG, but ends up way too long for this game.

    In conclusion this is probably the worst game I've played in my life, it's a pain to play, to watch and to listen, Even if you love RPG there's a lot of other options out there before you can even think to try this garbage, I read the second episode is way better, I guess I'll see, but this one is definitively bad.    … Expand

    portions of the open world even portions you have been in multiple times. The voice acting is cheesy and drives me from the game while the lore raises a few questions that remain unanswered.Combat isn't great and feels dated you will approach an enemy and follow the pattern of hit hit hit parry.During this parry animation you almost cant be hit making combat extremely easy.Graphics feel dated in some aspects Characters are ugly and textures are blurry. the developers forgot to take the environmental separation lines out. There are giant lines on the ground that separate different environments. from afar on top of a mountain the world looks nice but up close its brutal. One thing that two worlds really delivers on is customization there are 565 different armor SETS(Helmet, Armor, Gloves,Boots) yes you heard me right 2260 different pieces excluding mage robes and other pieces like orc helmets and orc armor.Also with my 150+ hours put into two worlds i found no known legitimate level cap which is great because you have the freedom to customize a character to exactly fit you rather than be limited to 15 or 30 levels like in some other RPGs.There are 38 skills to choose from but some of them don't have a purpose like Unhorse Strike (since no AI even on the hard difficulty use horses) Deadly Pirouette Strike in which your character gets on one knee and spins his sword like a helicopter blade with barely any effect . and Swimming which improves swimming speed even though you unlock the ability to activate teleports one hour in making this skill useless.Some are necessary like lock picking yet the lock picking is horrible its probability no mini game or real player input just press A and you may or may not unlock the chest. two worlds has multiplayer while its a bit more fun with friends the nonexistent crime system and insanely hard lock picking make it torturous. the magic system is interesting but is confusing due to certain buffs not correctly stacking onto spells. there are 5 schools of magic water air fire earth and necromancy.
    there is a spell called freezing wave that freezes all opponents around you making it nearly impossible to lose a battle similarly there is a spell for earth magic called chains which target one opponent instead of multiple.there is a item class system which you can infinitely stack items there is no need of payment or base items.Just two of the same items.the Alchemy system is nice combining permanent ingredients to make potions runes and other important items it really adds to the customization but also makes the game way easier.with all these problems the exploration drove me to play further late into the night to get one more sword pickpocket one more person explore one more dungeon or to do one more quest. the game is bad in its technical aspects but its fun.Two worlds is no oblivion killer but it sure is one fun experience    … Expand

My two biggest problems are this, 1: the quest guide and map are not easy to use, they really have a rough feel and scrolling the quests doesn't make sense and took me like an hour to even get used to them. 2: after about 3 hours of game play I was level 13 and had done the quests in the beginning area, after that I got completely lost, there is no direction in the games, side quests are all over the place , it's hard to get over the negatives but I did. So the positives.. There aren't too many. I like the combat even though you can dodge everything, the magic kind of sucks, but attacking with just sword and shield isn't too bad. The crafting kind of blows too, I just throw stuff in there and do it just to do it. Enchanting weapons is easy but is pretty dumb. I did notice one thing though and someone get back to me on this.. Is the main character in love with his sister? Like.. They seem like the want to bang all the time when they talk and she's wearing some super revealing clothes. I understand she is like the only women in the world in this game but it was pretty creepy how he talked to her. Overall this game sucks, but it's pretty fun to play, not worth anything over $15.… Expand

What I find unpolished about this game I can tolerate. Overall I would actually recommend this game because it heavily succeeds as a role playing game the only question is will you tolerate some of its aspects. Lets get this out of the way....the voice acting is pretty cheesy and low budget, the graphics of character close ups are not really all that good, there are times your character gets stuck and the game on occasion does hang. This normally would really tick me off however this game succeeds in bringing forward an extreme amount of customization and the pacing of the looting is outstanding and therefore role playing and the pacing is fabulous. I can forgive the low graphics and voice acting because this is compensated for by having an immense world, tons of weapons, creatures, and playstyles which all work within the parameters of the game. I will take this customization any day as it makes this game so fun to have all these choices and have them work fairly. Want to truly feel like a thief you can. Wan't to truly feel like a wizard you can. Want to feel like a badass warrior you can. The game allows so much options to be what you want and go where you want any time you want. . The game has tons of quests and is completely open world. Yes I heard there are problems with quests sometimes however being open world as the game is i can forgive these problems a lot more than if the game was not so open world. There is so much to do and so many quests it really isn't an issue. The game allows many save files so its all workable....just save a lot of different files. Combat can be a little silly at times but considering all the different playstyles the game offers I can cut it some slack. I actually appreciate how much effort must have went into making the games playstyle possibilities all work out ok so I can easily forgive these problems which to be quite honest are not that bad, just not that great. There are disc pauses to reload again this is not great but I'm not going to be a crybaby it only pauses a second or two at most. Getting stuck well yes i got stuck with my character alone and on horse on rocks or steep terrain pits. I can forgive this too as if I truck my horse into a rock I kinda am an idiot its meant for the path. And terrain well there is some argument there but again the gameworld is huge. I don't like it but again with so many game saves and knowing these problems in advance it was easy to work around. Now I want to tell people if you can put up with these things which in most regards are more quirky than gamebreaking this is an gem of a game. There is a nice assortment of enemies and the customization and pacing is among the most unique and fantasy fulfilling good time you can expect from a game. With such a huge world and the ability to loot in such a choatic order based where you are in the game this game delivers a solid fantasy experience and a lot of games don't come close to fullfilling immersion nearly as well as i experienced playing this game. I loved it. So, know what you are getting into and prepare yourself and I think this game could work out. All the low reviews here made me think twice about playing this game. I had terrible expectations and was surprized by have an excellent experience with the game. Yes it has some last generation qualities but to be honest i found this game more solid than a lot of newer titles these days.… Expand

If games such as Elder Scrolls: Oblivion never existed then Two Worlds would be great, due to the fact that no one would know any better. But those games do exist and Two Worlds will continue to be hideously bad.

But those games do exist and Two Worlds will continue to be hideously bad. Two Worlds is the guy that thinks a great fancy dress costume is wildly risky bodypaint, the massively inappropriate joke your Uncle tells at a funeral or that awkward moment when you've just broken wind in an empty lift and someone gets in on the next floor.

    Generally most videogames, however bad they are have something positive that you can mention. But this one literally fails on every level of composition. The music is bad, the voice acting is horrendous. One of the actors sounds like he is phoning the lines in from his garage at home. The writing is some of the worst i've ever seen, it literally assaults every aspect of my imagination. With the exception of some shrubbery and terrain, the graphics are horrendous. The character animations are sometimes terrifying, especially when someones arm or leg suddenly bends back and or extends for no apparent reason. At times it feels like you are in John Carpenter's The Thing, only without the directorial panache or engaging plot.

    There is literally no excuse for the way this game was made. There are budget titles out there at the moment which cost a fraction of the budget that this commanded and are 20 times better in every way. Two Worlds is a truly unforgivable game. Compounded by the fact that on it's initial release it was being promoted as something that could easily stand shoulder to shoulder with games like Oblivion. The marketing manipulated and paraphrased alot of critic reviews to make it seem more appreciated by the critic community which in my mind only makes this atrocity of gaming even worse.

    Avoid this game like that dodgy guy who sits next to you on the bus or train, despite it being completely empty.    … Expand

    While this may be a buggy and unpolished mess, I still had a lot of fun with this, but I still can't ignore this games many flaws, like I said it has tons of bugs and glitches, and it also has some of the worst graphics on the 360, I've sen better looking PS2 games, and the sound is awful, from the horrible voice acting (this may be the worst voice acting of all time) to the horrible musicWhile this may be a buggy and unpolished mess, I still had a lot of fun with this, but I still can't ignore this games many flaws, like I said it has tons of bugs and glitches, and it also has some of the worst graphics on the 360, I've sen better looking PS2 games, and the sound is awful, from the horrible voice acting (this may be the worst voice acting of all time) to the horrible music and sound effects, your going to want to turn the volume off, there was only one cool moment with the sound during the final boss, but it was over in like 30 seconds, and the horse controls don't work at all, you can't even control the horse it wont respond to the controls, and will run off and act crazy while your on its back, one time the horse ran straight into water and drowned us both, also just while walking around you will get a random load time, and it generally lacks polish everywhere, the story is decent but has the worst "good" ending of all time, but yet even with these flaws I still found myself coming back and having a blast, there is a TON of side quests and loot, a HUGE world to explore I would even say that it's one the largest open world games of all time, many different enemy types to kill, and it just has some kind of weird charm to it, so if you can put up with all it's flaws you can easily put hundreds of hours into this massive RPG, but it's going to be hard to do because of the numerous flaws it has, and I can't help but feel that with more polish also maybe a bigger budget, that this could be the next big RPG, here's hoping that the newly released Two Worlds 2 has fixed all these flaws, because this has a lot off good ideas and incredibly large potential.… Expand

    i found this game at gamestop for 6.99 and the guy at game stop was trying to presuade me to pick something else. Never wanting to listen to critics and reviews i bought it anyway. Not as bad as poeple say the voice acting is really funny the graphics are ok. everybody is screaming about framerate i don't think half of the people fussing about framerate even know what it is.

OBLIVION has glitches it is not a perfect game either and at times it can be boring. two worlds has tons of loot, money armor weapons woooooooooooo i just found an axe that is 315-850 attack damage. for me its about loot
    i can over look graphics for all that loot i pick locked a tresure chest that had 15,000 gold oh my god.
    and two worlds 2 has more loot. everybody should try this game if you like armor weapons customization(remember (baldurs gate) random generation of weapons and armor. the story is pretty good too I have to play and finish part one before i can really play part 2 GRAPHICS FAIR GAMEPLAY GOOD, LOOT AND MORE LOOT AWESOME.....    … Expand

    I understand why people have rated this game so low. It took you hours to complete quests because you had to do 100 things before actually getting anywhere. The horse back riding ( **** that ), i just started running about on foot. Also the armour and sword upgrading was completely ludicrious. However. the actual game graphics where very good, character leveling system was well done andI understand why people have rated this game so low.

However. the actual game graphics where very good, character leveling system was well done and the music was excellent and the storyline and gameplay where good. This could have been a gem of a game but too many things aloof. I would still recommend you going out and giving this game a shot, it has been underated. Dont judge the game on the horseback riding. In fact dont go near a horse.… Expand

    i was kinda excited about this game when i first heard about it . then i played it and every thing went down hill from there . lets start with the graphics they are abysmal they look like they belong on the PS2 or original xbox . then the horrid voice acting it reminds me of the 90s style voice acting you use to hear in games like resident evil or house of the dead . the story is bland asi was kinda excited about this game when i first heard about it . then i played it and every thing went down hill from there . lets start with the graphics they are abysmal they look like they belong on the PS2 or original xbox . then the horrid voice acting it reminds me of the 90s style voice acting you use to hear in games like resident evil or house of the dead . the story is bland as hell not intresting so not much motivation to keep pushing foward . the combat is dull basicaly just hack n slash . the game is very buggy and glitchy . you will get freeze ups , getting stuck in things , and quests getting screwed up so you cant finish them , the dilouge is also rancid dog crap i heard may hap so many times i wanted to may hap my foot up this games ass.the co op set up is completely broken. this game should be avoided at all costs .… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I love this game. But I only love it so much because it is ridiculously easy and fun to play. When I got to the first orc camp out side of Quidinar I slaughtered every one of them, without dying, with out wasting all of my potion, and without using one single power-up potion. Just before that I had totally cleared The Black Tower nearest to Windbreak, without even trying. I also have cleared the Temple In Ashos and taken Everything of value, looted the place to the bone, combined all the katanas, powered the normal type katana by combining so many that they equal up to 2,400+ Damage with 1,000+ magical from all the Weapon power ups that I looted, also making an Air Dragon armor equal 810+ Bludgeon, Slashing, And Piercing Defense. It Is So fun to play I give Who ever made this game a personal 5 out of 20, but the game, being so cartoonish and funny, A 20 out of 20. I think this game is a blast!!!… Expand

    I hate this game. It's an embarrassment, a misfire in every respect. A game that thought it could compete with the big boys and ends up being one of the worst experiences you'll find on the 360.

    There's a lot to Two Worlds that will take you an eternity to complete. This is probably the biggest draw to the game that I can mention. It is one of those games that you can put down, wait a while, come back to it, and rekindle the enjoyment you had the first time around.

    It's rare that a game releases that is so shockingly incompetent. Online options don't make it any better; they're simply a chance to play a terrible game with other people, in a few innovative modes like "Team Deathmatch." When something this just plain malign comes out, it's cause for a sort of celebration, because every other game will seem better by comparison.
