I was just leaving a comment, no owl fetish. If you enjoy this one as much as the last I imagine some stage in the future you’ll be wanting a Two Worlds Two tattoo too, for your other arm.

You just wanted to say “Two Two Too” in one sentence. You have an owl fetish.

I still have Two Worlds to play due to the text being mostly unreadbale on standard def tv and look forward to playing it someday. There is no reason for me to pick up Two Worlds II on release day…..although…. the special editions look nice. More than likely I will buy one of the deluxe editions ot Two Worlds Two too..

Lorna has a 1m x 1m stretched canvas of the Oblivion map on her office wall. Took me three days to blow it all up and redraw all the detail back in but it’s stunning. I gave it to her two christmases ago. Gorgeous.

I only picked up the regular Dragon Age set…bloody Christmas ruining everything!

I once saw a custom made beach towel size Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind map, made from cloth. Always regretted not picking it up =[

You just like touching cloth, don’t you? I assume there was a PC version released in the UK, mine is German though. Saw it in Berlin but the box was bashed, and then Lorna managed to get one imported for me afterwards. Do you have the Dragon Age cloth map? I loved the look of that set, but every time I took another look at it… the map just started to look more and more like a tea towel

I didn’t realise there was a PC version!

Liking the look of those special editions, but no cloth maps? We need more cloth maps people! Vote cloth!

@Pete… well yeah! The Royal Bundle will be 69.99 Euro for the PC version (which is what I’ll be aiming for as you get a mousemat that you don’t get with any of the other versions) and it’ll look great next to my original set.

@Robert… good to hear from someone else that loves the original, it’s such a shame that people weren’t able to see past the flaws yet they did with Oblivion’s same four people doing the same “Well met” voices and the fantastic ability to get stuck half way inside a wall. For being a small independent company in Poland, I think Reality Pump did well.

@Preacher… *cough*… hope you weren’t responsible for that??

@Lorna… the problem with the Two Worlds that you saw me play is that it was the XBox port from the PC version and the textures were, much like Risen, massively over compressed so it looked muggy and nondescript in places. I’m tempted to install the original PC version just to see how different it looks, but I fear it’ll just swallow my life away. I’ll still prefer the teleport stones fast travel any day though – being able to fast travel to/from a precise location (including indoors, in a cave, in a ruin, or even a dungeon) is a great feature.

Are we there yet???

Those special editions are stunning…*sigh* more to have to scrimp the pennies for for my collection! I didn’t bother or much care for the look and feel of the first one – the dodgy voice acting and occasional ‘hurhh’s and ‘yeahs’ while wandering around just made me snigger and lack of fast travel put me off playing it. Also I am not a fan of soley pictoral inventories. However, if I like the inerface for this one and the demo proves okay, I may actually give it a bash.

Great article…look forward to reading more.
