Risen 2: Dark Waters review
Sit right back and you'll hear a tale; a tale of a fateful trip into Piranha Bytes latest action-RPG, Risen 2: Dark Waters. Pirate-themed aesthetics replace the standard fantasy fare of orcs and elves but underneath that veneer beats the heart of a classic role-playing game. The resulting world of Risen 2 feels at once both fresh and familiar. There's a lot to like about the game, too, but it winds up being held back by issues such as its unintuitive leveling system and combat that's much more promising in concept than in practice. These problems hurt its accessibility and, though not insurmountable, can lead to frustration.

"MASSIVE! thanks for the heads up: Features - Players can now block most attacks by monsters ..."
