Two Worlds 2 is, what some would call, a diamond in the rough. I, myself would call Two Worlds 2 a dollar found in a pocket. The excitement of discovering a dollar in you pocket only to have it wane when you realize it was just a dollar. Still, a dollar is a dollar and it's worth having. Same goes for Two Worlds 2. It's worth having until the rest of the RPGs arrive later in the year.
To get started with, the character generation has been much improved. In the last iteration you were stuck choosing variations of a bald white dude that you could accessories with wigs. Now, what is strange is after you create your character and begin gameplay, the opening video shows your sister, whose complexion never adjusts to what you have chosen to appear as. The first few hours of this game will turn off quite a few players. It's a long tutorial, and as you play you begin to unlock various parts of combat. The main problem is that it takes you about an hour to an hour and a half to discover this. As you character gains experience the game much improves, and becomes more than tolerable.
I would recommend this game for those that like western style, open world RPGs. At least for those that have played The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion or Demons Soul's to death. This game should tide you over until at least the summer.
