Two Worlds
In Two Worlds you’ll enter a world where a dark crusade is brewing and darker plans are being made, out of sight. Thousands of years ago, hordes of orcs invaded the more civilized lands. Aziraal, the Orcish god of war, was killed in battle, forcing the orcs to withdraw to the southern wastelands. When a dwarven mining expedition uncovers an ancient tomb, the Orcs believe it to be their fallen god. A holy war ignites, but the real danger lies elsewhere. A powerful force churns silently - weaving a secret plot of fear and destruction. In the end, one of the Two Worlds will remain. Use traps and snares to make gameplay more flexible & strategic Combat system combines intuitive steering, tactical challenges and movie-like visual experiences
User Ratings and Reviews
1 Stars Terrible
This game disappointed me in every aspect of the game, the graphics are choppy, the text goes on forever, it’s hard even on easy, and whoever wrote the review on the back of the game box saying “Oblivion on steroids” must have meant the side affects of steroids. Adding to the initial disappointment, the back of the game box is very misleading, it makes this game look like the new generation of RPGs. And if I don’t convince you not to get this game then maybe this will: There are currently 61 used Two Worlds games on Amazon selling for as low as $6.50. That has to say something at the quality of this game after it is being bought new for at least $40.00, it’s not worth it.
1 Stars Nothing like Elder Scrolls!
If you have played Elder Scrolls, this game will leave you laughing. Cheap voice overs, bad graphics, and very little online players,… mostly little kids!
Dont waste your time or money!
1 Stars wrong region

2 Stars Not good
This game sucks and I actually played it for a while. I think that sums up the reviews, both the bad and good ones. Its not a good game people. Some have simply chosen to seriously overlook all its flaws to enjoy the few likable things about it. Things such as the weapons and as any rpg player loves, the leveling up aspect. But everything else about it is very dull and not worthy of today’s standards. How can a game like this come out quite a few years after games like Oblivion? A true step back. 2/5 and that is kinda generous for the most part.
3 Stars They say, “Steal from the best…”
I picked this up for under $20 from Amazon, so please bear that in mind while reading this review. The rating would be different if I’d paid $50 for Two Worlds.
First, these designers have definitely tried to steal from Oblivion. If you’ve played Oblivion, you’re going to recognize a whole lot of the elements in this game, from the landscape and scenery to brewing potions. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, because Oblivion was such a good game. This isn’t up to Oblivion’s standards, but if you’re looking for another world to wander around in, this one has some of the same trappings. It’s not as polished, but for $20 it is ‘good enough’.
Character customization at the start of the game is not impressive. You’re a bounty hunter/mercenary type, but if you want to be female you’re out of luck. You use sliders to determine your hair style, eye color, all the standards, but it’s nothing to get excited about. Think Tiger Woods 08 and dumbed down a bit.
You don’t have a set class, but rather a pool of skills that you can assign points to. Some require training, some are available from the start. As you complete more and more quests, you get more points to assign, pretty much like every other role playing game out there.
I’ve had a few problems w/this game locking up my Xbox (twice), so I had to remember to save often. There are also some glitches with the frame rate, especially around bright areas it seems. This is annoying, but with the game installed on the hard drive it isn’t terrible and happens rarely enough that you get used to it.
Now the good stuff. I love being able to have an axe in both hands! One weapon in each hand slicing and dicing is great fun. There are several mounts in the game to ride on, but some people apparently have a hard time controlling them. I didn’t find this difficult, but I also didn’t spend too much time on the horse or other mounts.
The landscape and world are fairly well designed, but they’re not as pretty (or downright breathtaking) as Oblivion.
The voice acting is so cheesy that it is hilarious. You could rip on it for being so bad, but when my character is whining about rain and using words like “forsooth” and “prithee,” it just makes me laugh.
Yes, you’re going to get mad if your game freezes and you haven’t saved. You’re not going to like this if you’re expecting Oblivion-quality graphics and gameplay. But if you’re buying it for $20 and expecting something “Sort of Like Oblivion But Not As Amazing,” I think you’ll be getting your money’s worth.
