Village mode is for up to 8 players where each player has his unique village. Players can do such stuuff as trade between villages. I assume your unique village will carry over to your next play session.

Perhaps the village data is tied to your character account somehow instead of being stored on a permanent server. Because I don't think there can be a server 24/7 where anyone can log in and travel to your unique village.

I never heard about such a thing. Maybe you're thinking of some other developer?

Thank you!

Have you played through Dragon Age and its expansion yet? I just finished it all, the final DLC named Witch Hunt and I fell in love with Morrigan again.

Character customization in Two Worlds II is very much like Oblivion. There are preset classes (mage, archer, warrior or something like that) but if you want you can specialize in anything. You can be a mage with heavy armor etc but with a penalty. You can determine physical appearance including facial feautures in detail, yes.

After playing it at E3.... I still thought it was crap.  Not as crappy as the original, but still crap.  No where near the Oblivion clone I was hoping for

Fallout 3 was the best Oblivion clone I played!

Nah not really. I'm not much of DLC guy. Unless it's free, I don't buy DLC from any game. But I want to play Awakening, but since there's no disc version of Awakening here at Australia, I'm gonna buy the Disc Version when I go to the States next year. I was however tempted to buy Witch Hunt because as BioWare mentioned, it was going to be the last DA DLC and that it owuld explain what happened to Morrigan after. I wanted to know what happened as well because I let Alistair mate with her to create the God Baby in my playthrough. But after reading the reviews, most reviews said that it wasn't anything special, doesn't explain much and a disappointing DLC in which we hoped that we could learn more about Morrigan. So that kinda put me off so no Witch Hunt for me.

The character customization sounds good to me. Very nice. What I like about WRPGs is the ability to customize your character creation and IMO  BioWare has so much better character creation customization than Bethesda's character creation customization. That's a real standout point for me on WRPG.

I don't know when I should pick this game up but I don't think this year is possible. However next year I might pick it up for PC.

Can you tell us more? Details.

ahhhhhh crap...another game to buy!

Damn you Internet

hmmm... wasn't on the radar but I think I'll give it a look now, looks like it could be decent.
