We have the first first footage of Two Worlds 2 in-game cinematics, which I’ve posted below. It’s… well. It made me laugh, anyway. The trailer accompanies the teaser website, and check out horn-helmet’s shield. Man!

I have a soft spot for TW1, but this did make me rofl.
I’ve no idea who I was supposed to root for.
The “WHAAT?” gets me every time. Truly ridiculous.
At 1:12 their bodies intersect, yet the backhand delivers. Fantastic!
Two Worlds 2, goo goo g’joob.
Your supposed to root for Oblivion
It has really become apparent to me that murder is taken all too lightly. In games.
Root for the orc(?) guy, the other is obscuring his face, so you know he’s dishonest.
What a confusing trailer.
wut?
next-gen consoles?
Launch title for PS4 and X720.
stellar. imagine that action as a movie.
If the game is intentionally made in this Frank Zaggarino fantasy epic manner, I’d buy it.
Knowing German devs and their weird humour (Sacred 2 RAWK CONCERT lol), I hope they actually intend to make a parody. That would save the franchise…
Hell, I can totally imagine a fun combat system that looks just like that.
I believe the developers of this one are actually czech or polish.
Topware is from Poland AFAIK (but with some German investors behind them), they’re the ones that delivered quite good Earth 21xx series.
Reality Pump and Topware are both Polish, I think.
Topware was German but went into bankrupcy in 2001. It had offices all over Europe.
The Polish subsidary was saved and is “Reality Pump” today.
What just happened? I’m so confused.
What the… *shplonk* Gaaa!
*stab* hoooooarrh
That was absolutely terrible, put some effort in next time… PLEASE!
The trailer is like a Lynch movie. Or maybe just something made by a drunk trainee.
What is the link between the escape and the fight ? There is no sense at all.
Or maybe, this time, players will incarnate some kind of minion, forced to obey to a red hood master.
That was fucking brilliant!
Here I thought silly helmet design was a thing of the past thx to Peter Jackson. In movies they never fit and almost always look silly, like in this trailer. Why guard only half the face, leaving the jaw vulnerable? Not to mention the fucking horns.
Lots of period helmets leave the jaw unprotected, especially if you were throwaway troops. It is probably so weird looking because it is ALMOST there. It does look like it’s missing an inch of material.
This is the Dragon Age of 2010. Really.
The first game was so awful I don’t think it matters how good this one is, I’m afraid of even touching a bargepole that’s touched it (with a bargepole I might add).
The first game is up there with worst voice acted games ever, worst balance ever, worst storyline ever and worst (rpg) gameplay ever.
Um. All I can think of saying is: ‘Why?’
I wouldn’t have dared to release something like this… Wow, that was shit.
Gotta love that backhand. Also, when exactly do you see horn-helmets shield?
The shield is on the homepage which is linked in the news. I have to say, this one is really hilarious, just like the trailer. Watch it for a few moments, you will see :)
Need more meat
Lol at the comical and incongruous slap sound.
This is what happens when you hire a a Mexican soap opera director to direct your game trailer
no, if it was a Mexican soap opera an appropiate music would tell us who are the bad guys
“It’s just a flesh wound.”
haha, I was thinking the exact same thing at the end there.
There’s nothing wrong with that video that a writer, a director, a character design artist, a couple of experienced animators and the Delete key couldn’t fix.
Yeah, it was amateurishly done, but a lot of promotional material is in this industry, except for big releases with a massive marketing budget. 5 years ago we would probably all ogle and drool at something like this.
“Next-gen consoles” made me chuckle though. PS4 launch game then?
after the terrible first game. Terrible AI, terrible balance, terrible voice acting, but i can live with bad voice acting.
I definately wont be giving this one a try.
In order to get your RPS embedded videos to play I have to:
1. Press play
2. Click HD
3. Press pause
4. Press play again
You are not alone.
What about the back-handed bitch slap!? Isn’t that worth something?! ROFL!
Good to see that the atrocious blood effects are back, as is the generally confusing nature of the game.
As a side note, I like the retro-style studio logo in the intro.
Can some one explain what the hell is going on?
At some point a focus group identified hot ninjas, big helmets and bitch slaps as the three key things missing from the first Two Worlds.
It seems that (the movie version of) Sauron sent a Clockwork Deer to find a prisoner who escaped a dungeon with the help of a (totally original) Elf with a bow, and a probably-Dwarf. The Clockwork Deer meet (and bitch slap) an intangible Orc with clown makeup, who manage to kill the Deer off screen.
The Aristocrat!
I could totally credit the focus group story as true…
I can’t stop looking at that shield.
It looks so happy to have vomited bats all over.
The shield is far, far more amazing than I could have imagined.
Ok then. Hope it brings us more video like .
I think the running soldier dude summed it up nicely:
"My lord, something happened!"
Um. Ropey combat and giant horns… O… K…
two worlds one cup
Imagine the size of the cup!
LOL.
Forget the happy bat shield. How’s he holding that mace without a thumb?
Watched the backhand bit again and again. *FWACK*
I don’t know if it’s the weird homoerotic embrace beforehand, or the sound effect, or the way his sword clips through the guy’s torso, or some unholy combination thereof, but it’s gold.
If the whole game is this shlockily hilarious I might just have to pick this one up.
I hope the second game also deals with the infection of The Taint.
This looks gloriously silly. Two Worlds had the goofiest dialogue I have ever heard,and I can’t play without cackling with laughter and annoying people for days after shrieking “The Taint!” This appears to be more of the same
I’ve got a hunch they were trying to faithfully re-create heavy-sword fencing moves in that fight scene. The problem is that these swords don’t look heavy in the hands of these enormous fighters. Not to mention animation is clumsy (lol I’m a poet now).
It did have bad voice acting and stuff, but I really liked the first one. One thing of note is their robes were great. They actually looked like robes, verses the “dresses” in Dragon Age: Origins.
The voice acting is awesome. I should know I’m in it.
