"YOU'RE LATE AND WRONG": II worlds

"its like a video game doing a video game thing."



II worlds is basically the video game equivalent of battlefield earth, and when I say that its because that movie was fucking ridiculous and that's why I liked it. I am a sucker for bad things but, II worlds isn't actually a bad game if you throw away all your dumb expectations of an in depth story line, great voice acting, or even not falling through the world. 

 A major complain of this Video game seems to be  about how its completely swarming with insects filled with bugs that make it unplayable. The bugs in this here Video game to me seem no more game breaking than "The Touch of Bethesda" has on any of Bethesda games. A big proponent of me loving Bethesda games as much as I do is because they are fucking ridiculous and hilarious. If there was never a time in fallout 3 in which a man ran full sprint up to me and screamed "HEYAHHH" and still-legged, rotated 360 degrees around and full sprinted away, I honestly do not know if I would have loved that game at all...besides the satisfaction of popping off dudes heads with a sledge hammer. The same goes for II worlds.

II worlds finds this subtle hilarious blend between bugged hilariousness and actual genuinely satisfying game mechanics. 

"Subtle"
I'm am not trying to justify the buying of the Video game but at least download the free demo off their web site. Oh and another thing, this is one of the few games I've played where having a bunch of useless weapons is almost non existent. II worlds allows you to combine any weapons of the same type a seemingly infinite amount of times. you can also combine a seemingly infinite amount of the same kind of gem in to a weapon also. For example: you find a spiked club. you find another, another, another and so on. All you have to do is just drag and drop all on to one and you can stack their effects. Same goes for any kind of elemental gem (even stacking gems on other gems to make them more powerful). There are no sockets, you just drag and drop. So from a simple spiked club you will end up with some sort of insane lighting overpowered man smashing device. This staking of items can be done with any kind of item: armor, shields, pants, you have to have really strong pants. Every one knows that.

"Bludgeon of Blood. Serious business bro."


Not only is there an amazing loot game but, there is also a potion crafting feature.You will Find a multitude of different kinds of herbs mushrooms, minerals, and you can mix and match them to make a large amount of potions with different effects. The best part is when you have made a specific potion you can keep the recipe and every time you mix the two things you get that same potion. 


In the end this is just a really fun Video game doing a Video game thing. Ok I'm done here, I'm going to go play this fucking retarded piece of shit amazing Video game again.
