I've had little time to be around lately, but I had to pop in to mention how much I enjoyed Chapter 2! Here are some random thoughts....
As before I absolutely loved how cinematic the game is, that first shot above the standing stones on the Isle of the Mists - wow!
I feel like there's plenty to keep one busy to make up for the shorter Ch. 1, not that I minded, as it set up the story so well.... The classic adventure game scavenger hunt was a real treat and the sheer nostalgia of revisiting familiar locations was wondrous. I rather liked how this time around you could actually view the books in Ali's shop, it helped to further flesh out the world. I must say that Hassan is quickly becoming a favorite character of mine, such a funny guy! I love the banter between he and Graham. I found the druid scroll to be an interesting new feature and I see a lot of potential for it in the future....
I even got stuck temporarily, in true KQ fashion
Then there's the story developments.... Edge of your seat stuff!
On the technical side of things, I was very happy with the new gameplay improvements such as the walk/run option, and the widescreen support. There were no apparent glitches, other than a crash while loading to a new island, and that's most likely something to do with my system and not the game itself.
I could keep going.... But I must say that with my birthday coming up, playing Chapter 2 is a wonderful present!
