@SiloTearz Actually, Fallout 3 is an RPG with FPS mechanics. Big difference. Risen and Fallout 3 are both different, but they are also in the same genre. Stop being stupid.

What the fuck is with this gamesweasel !!!!.....RISEN IS THE FUCKING GREAT GAME !!!!!!! i played it 5 times

@Starioshka What do you mean by no story? I't has a truly epic and immersive story. It also is an rpg(third person shooters have no mechanics except shooting like gears of war that i mentioned...You have nothing here except non stop shooting and a decent story) you can check that anywhere on the internet starting from wikipedia. Did you see any other TPS with classes,skills,stats,epic story and inventory/modification system?I'm pretty sure i can't be a vanguard or adept in a shooter...

[Starioshka]

@ultraboy222 ME has no story idiot, also acording to your stats, everything released since 2007 is an rpg.

[ultraboy222]

@Starioshka I though about origins but dragon age 2 is crap only to some fans and haters.... and mass effect is not a tps, it's an action rpg with skills,stats,morality and inventory/modification system. TPS is Gears of War(you just shoot stuff with different weapons) and ME has one of the best stories in modern video games.

[Starioshka]

@ultraboy222 dragon age 2 is crap, everyone fuckin knows that... And mass effect is a TPS in fact.

[ultraboy222]

@Starioshka If someone likes action rpgs that doesn't mean others are crap and bethesdas animations are actually some of the worst in nowadays rpg games. Look at Dragon Age or Mass Effect or any other.

[Starioshka]

@ultraboy222 dude, look at every other RPG except for bethesda stuff, theyre fuckin shit in general, they have lame ass combat and suck balls. If they get FPs camera they automaticaly get better animatiosn and more features for some reason.

[ultraboy222]

@Starioshka Skyrim is pretty much the only modern rpg game that focues on first person camera but that doesn't make it FPS-ish(it has no fps mechanics it's just toggleable camera) lol. Animations are not bad but they could be a lot better. Why are we talking about skyrim anyways... this is risen review.

[Starioshka]

@ultraboy222 have you ever seen a game that doesnt have FP camera and has this smooth, fluid and awesome combat and animations like skyrim, battlefield or cod? NOPE. FPS means not only genre, it also means quality.

[ultraboy222]

@Starioshka FPS is First Person Shooter, you know, battlefield,call of duty,crysis? Skyrim is an RPG with action combat(although it was simplified a lot compared to oblivion). First person camera isn't just made for shooter games so that doesn't matter. By this logic fallout 3 and NV are shooters ....
