Only a complete bellend would rate Risen 3/10. It's definitely a great game, look above in this thread to see what we wrote about it. Better than TW2 imo. When I first played it, it pretty much felt like a "Gothic II with better graphics" (although some aspects have devolved as well). I would give it at least 8/10. At the very least, you should give it a try for a couple of hours and decide then.
