Looks like Two Worlds has been slashed to $9.99 on Steam, and I'm tempted to buy it. But I remember reading about some pretty decent bugs when it was released.
Has the game been fixed enough to make it worth playing? Is it worth $10?

It does have some hilariously bad voice acting - although I have to admit it kind of grew on me - and strange fighting animations, but I enjoyed it none-the-less. It also has multiplayer, and if you do get it I'd be willing to quest with you online.

But I think I'll get my money's worth out of it!
But that's just me. I think that game was horrible garbage.
Maybe I'm just weird.
Yea, i'll second this.
Godamnit.
As for a little gameplay tip ... try to assemble full suits of a particular armor set (541, 565, etc ... shows in the item info). If you have all five pieces of a set, you get extra bonus added to your armor ratings.
Is it my fault that I decided to use mainly bows?

Nonsense!
That sounds awesome. How much truth to it?
... and you can do the same in Fallout, Metroid, Morrowind - and probably many others. I might consider it a plus. Though I'd've said, "thus ending the game".
The last time I bought a Steam Special, it was Vampire: Bloodlines last Halloween. Didn't go wrong then, so I think I'll give this one a shot. Thanks, guys.
Not bad. About what I was expecting, performace/graphics wise - far more vibrant, actually. Am hoping it'll have a lot more varied terrain.
Really like the idea behind the spell boosters, though I don't know how in depth that'll get.
Minor quibbles so far - I had to register the game, after I bought it. This means I can only choose one gender for all my characters.
Character selection seems non-existant.
Maybe I missed an opening cinematic somehow, but it dropped me into a dungeon tutorial and told me to kill some critters. Slightly confusing.
Also, everything in the game hates me. It'd be nifty to watch a wolf stalk and kill a boar, but as soon as I get within 5 ft of either, both jump me.
Neutral:
It's less 'lol, bad voice acting', and more 'oddly translated, then dubbed'
Having to register is a little weird, but they do e-mail you a code for a bonus item. Granted, you can just look the code up on GameFAQs or something, but it's still an interesting touch.
Yes it is.
Everything I have read on the game said bows are only really usefull for taking out weak mobs from range. To actually do any real fighting you need melee or magic. Probably go with melee since you took bow. Magic + Bow is kinda a stupid combo since they are both ranged.
fix'd
Edit: Shiyit. Just read the news feed that said the sale was only on the weekend. Good deal.
Did something I found amusing earlier:
I'm trying to find some necromancers, so I can get accepted and learn their secrets. So I scan the horizon, and I see an evil-looking tower; I ride towards it, and begin seeing undead wolves and bears and such. This appears promising, so I continue forward and run into some necromancers. "Awesome", I think. "Now, to communicate; after all", I continue, "I did some quests and they think of me as a helpful aide". I enter the shadow of the tower ... and immediately turn around and ride very quickly the other way, as these necromancers are far more interested in killing me than talking.
The multiplayer is terrible, but the single player is a lot of fun.
A big world to explore, decent story line, lots of loot, great looking gear, gotta love it.

Why? Well, go right up to a locked door, and face it. Summon a skeleton(or other summons work too, tried reapers), and it will appear inside the locked area. Walk a few feet away, the summon will open it for you, then feel free to enter at will.
Making bank :P

I have never seen such hideous character models. Oh gods, that guy in the intro with a potato for a head. The talking potato haunts my nightmares!
Everything on the back of the box is a lie. The game looks like ass. There is next to no character customization. Combat really sucks.
Some games in a similar genre that are actually worth $10: Dark Messiah of Might and Magic. Morrowind or Oblivion (with mods they looks so much better than this game).
What settings do you run it on? I'm on highest settings, and I think its a really, really nice looking game. Better than oblivion.

And also the game has horrible voice acting and some goth rock song for some weird reason.
And for god's sake they proven how much they hate the world to design the horse controls like that.
And let's not forget the bugs, like the one where I HAD TO DELETE ALL MY SAVES BECAUSE THEY KEPT FREEZING ON ME OH YEAH AND EVEN NEW GAMES WOULD FREEZE SO I HAD TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO CLEAR MY 360'S CACHE WITHOUT FORMATTING MY HARD DRIVE THANKS YOU ASSHOLES.
And yet, I can't get enough of it. I can't even explain WHY I can't get enough of it just that I have fun playing it and it's so big and I'm a sucker for big games (penis reference here) and ooh look at the lizard mounts!
And sometimes, on very rare occasions, it can be very pretty.
So yeah, I bought the game. Oh wait I bought the game TWICE I mean. Because first I got the 360 version but then I saw the PC Collector's edition which had a map on sale and had to have that too.
I make no excuses, but I must confess my sin about loving this game.
