Morning Fenix :3

Part of a post from earlier this morning on that First Risen Review thread:

Played it for nine hours yesterday before teh necessity to take a break hit me. While opinions are guaranteed to differ, I see this game as the game Gothic 3 should've been. I see it as Gothic 2 remade in what I could only think of as beautifully.

I will miss Milten, I will miss Xardas, I will miss the nameless hero I grew to love, but Risen has won a huge place in my heart already and I think it's going to stay there.

I felt horribly profound yesterday and thought to myself, Piranha Bytes haven't made a brilliant Gothic, they've actually just made a brilliant game using the same formula that caused me to fall so madly in love with G2.

I love the combat - you actually sit on the edge of your seat trying your best to block in time and time the perfect opportunity to counter - I think it's incredibly enjoyable :3

I finally met Inquisitor Mendoza after getting the consent and the blessing in Harbourtown to join the Monastery yesterday too, and he's totally the shizznit :3

I cannot find the words to describe how happy I am with this game. It's everything I wanted it to be and it still continues to surprise me :3

SPOILER ALERT: One of my favourite parts so far is in the Monastery where you have to find the Alchemist Master (I forget his name :o), and there's a secret passage (won't say where :3) you need to use to find him and then you have to make use of green orbs with spells bound into them to find him and.... I just enjoyed that so much :3

This game has won my heart in much the same way G2 did. I couldn't be happier playing a game as I am playing this one :3

I'm well thanks :3 And TinMan's doing a review, so you can likely get a more unbiased (:D) review from him :P

So far I'm easily giving it a 9.0/10 until I finish the game where I can decide more appropriately. But so far, it does everything I want it to do right and meets my expectations head-on and even blows some of them away :3
