Ixamyakxim: (Risen I HATED but I'm willing to blame this on the fact that I played the console version - it's one of those games that people openly acknowledge as a totally different and terrible a game on consoles, while 100% better on PC).
AnimalMother117: This is true. Risen on 360 is not bad, but it has so many issues that it really has trouble functioning as a game and I for one hold that it is much, much better on PC, so much so that it nearly does feel like a totally different game.
I definitely agree that the PC version of the Risen games are
miles better.
However I thought the console version of the first Risen game was OK, I got used to the controls eventually.
Risen 2 was an entirely different animal. I played this on console as well and it was virtually unplayable to me, even the first Risen game had better controls in comparison. Any type of combat in Risen 2 on console was extremely frustrating, even if you used guns - which in theory should make things easier ! Nooope, not in Risen 2.
Risen 2 on console made me miss the controls in the first game, that's how bad it was.
No, these games should be played on PC, anything else feels like waste of money.
