Lightsp33d1987 Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 (edited) Voted a 3 this game takes 40-50 hours there's nothing hard as game can be done on easy I got all trophies apart from 2 where they were just getting All Rounder and 2000 kills Edited August 12, 2012 by Lightsp33d1987 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blevensp1 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Voted 2, as you can play on easy mode. The game was entertaining, funny. I didn't feel much like a pirate though. Platinum takes around 40 to 50 hours I would say. It's a good idea to save up your Glory points early on. You need 61,000 GP to max out an attribute then buy all skills. I leveled up Cunning to 6 so that I could lockpick, but that was it. The game isn't very challenging combat-wise and you should have plenty of healing item anyway. Big Game Hunter, killing 2000 monsters is the biggest grind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NovaSD Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Gets a 3 from me. Nothing is difficult at all, but melee combat sucks. The 2000 kills is a grind, though. The game takes 1.5 playthroughs for the . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthEder Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 All I have left is about 1000 kills for the Platinum and 100%, so I think I can vote already: I'll go with a 3 too. When you're after the platinum, you have to play the game in a way it's not meant to be played: saving up glory & gold This can make it a bit more diffucult than it should be, but it's not really that much of an issue.

SnowVixen Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 I voted a 3. The game was only really difficult at the very beginning. Once I got the power attack and one of the infinite throwing knives, it became really easy. Took a little less than 40 hours to complete it 100%.

Respectable Inn Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Voted a 2. All rounder was easy to get using reloads, combat was only slightly challenging at the beginning but once you got to the Sword Coast and you had levelled a few not so difficult. Would have voted this a 1 if it were not for the time taken to get 2000 kills, the lack of a stats screen and the confusion surrounding what this game constitutes as being a 'monster' in relation to the kills trophies.

Bubweiser Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 I gave it a 3 none of the trophies are hard to obtain, especially with the reload tip for a few trophies, like everyone said the big hunter trophy is a pain to reach but time consuming doesn't represent hard.

antibes Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 (edited) I'm not ready to vote yet, but is it me or I see 10 votes on 10??? In which way can this game be a 10?

Multitasking Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Yeah, people vote high if they have to spend more than 20 hours of time to plat a game. And possibly because big game hunter is such a joke of a trophy that just to do that trophy requires 4 FULL playthroughs at @12-20hours a pop. and Another 5-10 hours of grinding the same mobs again and again. Which people don't get that boring grinding =/= difficult. The most long hours should add is maybe 1 point in addition to the considered difficulty. As such, Risen 2 is a joke to beat, not hard at all, though sometimes VERY annoying and the AI sucks.. forgot to actually rate it when I plat'd it way back when. But all considered with no BGH, it's a 4. With, a 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neuromancer1968 Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 I voted 3. Nothing difficult in the game at all. It is shame about the grinding required for Big Game Hunter though, in the end I was glad to see the back of a game that I had otherwise enjoyed.

Raaght Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Easy game to complete. Voted 3. After 2 playthroughs i reloaded Storm Island 28 times to get the stinkin' Big Game Hunter trophy. A pity, I did enjoy the game before the grind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alien666 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 3/10 Easy Platinum... if you exactly know what to do step by step. My advice is: make new save after each island - it saves a lot of time. Be "careful" with Admiral Alvarez "bug". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duftkerze Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 hi, i voted 3. took me about 55 hours. if you did like gothic 1 & 2 for the pc, then you probably also will like risen 2. i did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starcrunch061 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 I gave it a 5. 3 is reserved for stuff just above Up and Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs - this is a lot more involved than that, but it's never hard. Overall, I got the plat in around 40 hours, and I dallied. This could be streamlined immensely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkAmon Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 voted 3 for actual DIFFICULTY. i give it a 7 for Glitches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dante_kinkade Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 I'm going with a four because of grinding the 2000 kills, not because of the time alone, but because it enjoys to freeze up with farming mara for spawn kills and that is just a pain.

Dancing Mad Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 I'll be giving it a three. Most of that goes towards the patience and dedication one might need to get all the trophies, but none of them are actually tough to get. Most of them are story driven, so there's only a few I found I needed to work on. Sure I got impatient and a little fed up at times, but technically, none of them are hard. Just time consuming, and some annoying cheap deaths that I find completely unnecessary. However, because of some mess ups in the game, the challenge might be slightly higher than it should be. The game tends to freeze a lot, there's the infamous black screen, (which may be cured by turning off auto saving and setting your gamma as low as it will go) and some weird programming errors...like not being able to master all the blade skills after getting too far into the game. Had I known that before I did, I would have obtained the plat a bit earlier. Slight annoyances, but annoyances anyways. It's a kick ass game though, but fortunately for trophy hunters, the ''open world'' is pretty much a joke, and so therefore it can be a very linear game once you've been through it once, and know what to do.

poetic_justice_ Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 I agree with TerminusCross comment about unnecessary cheap deaths. I have not voted on this difficulty thread, but after 3.5 hours of playing Risen 2, I was done. The voice work is enjoyable, but the graphics and melee combat are atrocious. There are much better games i'd rather invest 55 hours in. It's a shame, because this game really has some great things going for it; Deep Silver nailed the pirate theme, but not the combat or graphics.

Jisan75 Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Voted 4, took me around 50 hours to get everything, 2000 kills trophy is mostly to blame for the time investment. Combat in this game is a joke, really slow and sluggish if you go the melee route, would recommend getting muskets on the save you are gonna grind kills with, everything dies in 1-2 shots and bullets cant be blocked by any enemies.

Theophobos Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 a 2 from me. Great game, nothing difficult if you take your time. But even if you rush through, it's not much more difficult. But it's sickening to see these 10 votes for 10. Good thing is that there's no votes for 7, 8 or 9, so people who seriously use their brains will realize these are just nonsense votes from gamers who crave for attention.

SugarDD Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 (edited) 3. I've played the game on hard from start to finish and nothing was hard at all, and with all the upgrades you'll be unstoppable. Worst thing is the boring second playtrought and all the farm for kills. Also despite all the reviews, if you're an old gothic/piranha bytes fan don't miss this game, It's super fun.
