Risen Review

WorthPlaying has conjured up their own review of Risen, during which they point out many of the same strengths and weaknesses we’ve been reading about for awhile before slapping a score of 7.1/10 to it.

There’s no real way around it: Risen has issues. While the characters are all wonderfully done and the world is appealing enough to immerse you in its fantasy setting, the onslaught of technical problems and woefully unsatisfying combat system will turn off most players in a hurry. Things get better as you progress, but a painful first quarter of the game, coupled with all of its other problems, means that Risen falls short of being worth your time. There’s some great gameplay in Risen, but you have to trudge though too many problems to find it.
