The world literally comes to life as it immediately reacts to the player's actions and changes accordingly -offering new and exciting challenges.

The good part, the rest I took with truckloads of salt or beat myself to death over.

Hey, I've just found some more full of shit comments:
There will be an amazing array of guilds, destinations, and characters with great depth and detail. Additionally, each character played will gain experience in various skill sets in a manner that is more realistic and compelling then any other game to date. For example, hand to hand combat has never been seen like this in an RPG to date.
:roll: And you though Bethesda overhyped. Claiming your game is the best ever is the most idiotic thing to do.

Yes, and a very convincing example.

I'm sure they'll release some other screenshots/vids/material that will prove they're indeed THE DEVIL.

And how are you so sure?

Also, the title of a newspost:
"Two Worlds" fever has begun
:roll:

They HAVE to, or their PR machine will reveal itself as a big joke and nobody but graphics fanbois will DOWNLOAD the game to test their new system with.
Time will tell.

Nevertheless, comparing your game to other games (besides those in the same series) is something no dev should do. And TW devs are doing it a lot.
"We have graphics/combat/character developement/consequences never seen in any game to-date!"

Perhaps the statement is partly true, at least up to the Oblivion release.
I say it's PARTLY true because I don't fully believe in their "consequence" bit. We have some good games that change the consequence based on choices during gameplay.

And what if the "We have graphics/combat/character developement/consequences never seen in any game to-date!" statement means that the above features SUCK like no other game to-date? ;)

I still have some hope left for small devs...that's my main problem.

I think he was referring to the karate knight animation you can see in the corner of their web page.:wink:

Yep, hand-to-hand animations are an essential part of character development.

Well when I see such "features page" I get quite suspicious. I know marketing requires you to pump up things, but words like "unique" should be used carefully I think... :D
Anyway let's see, I could enjoy a ligther RPG from time to time.

But this one won't be lighter, it will be "TEH BESTEST EVAR".
Bethesda PR was "Trust us: it's gonna be cool." Two Worlds PR is "Trust us: It's gonna be the best RPG to date."
