So much potential

This game had the makings to be incredible. I am a big fan of the open battle system in games like this, Dragon Age, Oblivion, etc. The fact that you could switch character classes mid-battle was incredible. The spell system was near infinite as far as combinations and effects. The armor and forge system was innovative and refreshing. The fact that you could break down existing weapons and armor to improve others was a great aspect of the game.
With all of this going for the game how could they possibly mess it up? Well let me tell you: The actual gameplay was simple enough and very similar to games of its kind. The downfall was that there never seemed to be any power behind the hits, and the actually chance of you hitting an opponent in melee combat seemed sporadic at best. No matter how leveld up the character was it seemed that one random shot would kill the character instantly whichwas incredibly frustrating. The graphics of the game reminded me of oblivion, which is not bad, for a game that is six years old. The voice acting and the dubbing was absolutely horrible.
In the end, Two Worlds 2 had great potential, but fell very short of being even a mediocre game. Rent it if you're waiting for Skyrim and Dragon Age 2 if you have absolutely nothing else to help you pass the time.
