Two Worlds Gets Expansion… For Some Reason
Okay, I don't actually know anyone who's playing Two Worlds, but I guess it must have sold a few copies, because Zuxxez Entertainment AG has revealed that there is an expansion pack on the way called The Temptation. I have the demo a whirl when it went up on Xbox LIVE, but couldn't bear more than a few minutes of it before I had to shut it off or risk permanent insanity. You know how poorly Morrowind or Oblivion control when you switch out of first person view? Yeah, that's pretty much Two Worlds in a nutshell. Stiff animation and awkward controls made my first bout of combat no fun, and while it looked pretty enough, one glance at the intricate inventory screen sent me running for the hills.
But I guess for those of you who actually found this game fun, there's more on the way. Amusingly, in the press release, they mention a new gameplay feature that they're including to expand the game even further.
The Two Worlds universe is now even more interactive. Together with the upcoming sequel The Temptation, a new gameplay feature has been developed that will enable the player to influence his environment even more! He can now use chests, barrels and other items to defeat his opponents or to reach higher ground - and as far as the vertical is concerned, there are ladders available in The Temptation!
Ooh! Ladders! But will there be chutes as well?

Actually, I constantly switch between first and third person in Oblivion, depending on what I'm doing. Combat and movement inside a building/cave are easier in first person, but I find running around the world map much easier in third person. I also find riding a horse impossible in first person.
Two Worlds still sucked, though.
