One of the most difficult budget-related decisions they were facing was whether to make only one female model, like Elex 1, but make it attractive this time or make 2-3 ugly ones. I guess they went with the latter.

Elex didn't do owt for me. It was OK, but from an RPG stance I found it quite dull tbh. My fave PB games, Gothic 2 & Risen 2, contain way more humour and spice than Elex did.

Here's hoping they spice this up a bit too.

Well, Risen series had downward trajectory, but I still enjoyed all three to certain extent. My worry is that Elex started on a lower note, as it was nowhere near as good as R1 in my book.

  • The moral system has been revised: Instead of a cold value for Jax's emotional state, there is now "creation" and "destruction". Whoever kills defenseless sheep, for example, increases the destruction value.
As if ELEX wasn't amazing enough, PB went all in with complex sheep genocide-morality systems.. Fuck, I kneel.
I want those destruction points. thesheeep your days are numbered.

R1 have the best melee combat in a game for sure,hard to beat it on that aspect. But elex have top tier exploration,that jetpack is clear evolution of the PB formula. Shame that the loot wasn't that good.

nah ELEX was better than risen.

risen's saving grace was it's melee combat against humanoid actually feels like a duel ,but in term of world design and the fact ELEX doesn't fall apart 50% into the game makes it better.

ELEX fall apart about 80% in instead of 50%

Disagree,both worlds are really good. ELEX for scifi fans and Risen for fantasy fans.

PB making women in their games ugly far before any other western dev. Glad to see they're continuing the tradition.
At least she is a red haired, those are rare in modern entertainment.

I'd argue that's actually a rather good looking woman by German standards...
By the way just noticed,that is Caja from the first game,incline! Now i would be able to make her some babies! Also pretty fateful to her face from the first game.

:nocountryforshitposters:
Have you seen german women?!

PS:Now that i noticed the trailer,she looks pretty good,would bang. Far better than those niggers dikes in kwan games!

We got plenty of beauties in Germany. Certainly not less than the British.
