We are glad to have fellow 1uppers on board theres alot of us here and this is a great site and everyone here knows just about everyone else, so glad your here and looking forward to some great blogs.
As a strategy gamer i am less impressed with snazzy graphics, voice acting and music its all about gameplay in my opinion, we can have all the fancy technology in the world and if the games no fun then your looking at a beautiful game that sucks, lol but i can say the landscapes in farcry 3 were mesmerizing and the cartoony HD in Borderlands two was awesome and both great games, but i could load up Tactics Ogre on the Playstation and be in heaven and having twice the fun then either of thoughs games point being graphics and sound are superficial it all boils down to gameplay, and by the way kick ass blog,
Dont feel bad i dont think i can count how many games i beat on one hand lol.
Im sorry about your mother but keep strong and have Faith, and will will say a prayer foryou and your mom and depressing poetry is usually poetry at its best, my wife has diabetes and it can be scary,but any way keep your head high and do the best you can for your mother.
Its like Blake said it is a little flawed but if you can get passed the little hicups the gsme has it offers alot of cool things, and the update on the 360 anyway fixed alot of the bugs it had, and im sure by the tine three comes out it will be alot more stable of a game.
You know the funny thing about Risen is most people dont give it a chance, cause its starts very slow and kinda ho hum, but onece you get into it a bit it really gets goo, what i liked about it is the llittle details like cooking meat you get etc, not being able to walk into someones home without it ending badly lol, and thats how Risen two is, if you base the game on the first hour or so you think lame but stick with it and it rewards you good.oh and if you like two worlds two, get the dlc,pirates of the flying fortress it give you a pirate themed game and is very big and you get to sail around the rest if the world you couldnt visit before,ut may be pricey i think on the 360 i paid 3600 ms points, it may have dropped by now but totally worth it.
Yea check out Gamespot.coms reveiw on it they gave it an.
The Risen games can be brutal lol but well worth the attempt and two worlds two magic in one hand and a sword in the other is rare for a rpg usually if your a magician you have to leave the swords alone but not in this game and your right the magic system does rock.
Oh and Joe was right Austins music scene is awesome the bars and clubs on 6th street are just a bonus lol
