EDIT: Dammit, the Oz version is called Two WORLDS 2 - I may have added to the confusion by mistakenly referring to the recent very pretty looking mocap-game Two Souls

Hoi kids,

After watching Yahtzee rip the new games a steaming third hole, I ran through his old reviews and came across his Two Worlds 2 semi-positive and thought, why not?

The gameplay is basically WOW without the cartoony shaman humping your face (half the time), with a nice "breakdown the loot, upgrade the rest with what you've got" system, somewhat annoying "over the shoulder 3rd person camera" and a disjointed plotline that just keeps tossing up weirdness along the way.

Oh, and the male protagonist is voiced by Satan.
Seriously. This guy is supposed to be the hero and he comes across as the guy who's going to gut-shoot a girl walking a puppy, just to watch someone bleed.

After listening to the hugely uneven dialogue (the mix levels are shockingly bad) the tired, dull gruff tones take on the sound of a guy who needs to shiv a hobo before he can ejaculate; each conversation is the sawing of the tattered ropes he uses to keep the madness at bay before he can kill again without the guards asking awkward questions.
Well until they turn their backs to him, at least.

Why did he jump at the chance to escape in the first act? The bone-deep genocidal need that's his only friend in the world.
His rescuers don't matter - killing them would be a waste of his talent. He needs more fresh bodies to chuckle over...
If the beasts of the Savannah didn't repop, I swear, after each clear moonlit night, each fresh hamlet he walks, sidles or rides into would be a silent ghost town by the 3rd day.

Oh! And the music is rather fetching.

Having fun y'all:)
-Tir
