Elex 2

Elex 2 is a continuation of the role-playing game from the authors of Gothic and Risen. The plot begins exactly where the previous part ended. The factions differ in ideology: some serve technology, others serve nature or magic. The world is full of ruins of former civilization and technology. As in the original, there is a large open world to explore, where magic, technology and the remnants of a former civilization coexist. Factions live by their own rules, and joining one of them changes the available tasks. The jetpack remains: it helps to get into hard-to-reach places. The map is open from the very beginning, but the danger grows by region. A hero named Jax continues to deal with the past, and his decisions affect his relationships with others. Combat combines melee combat, shooting and the use of force, and leveling is divided into branches. Fights require preparation: the opponents are strong, and first aid kits are few. Leveling up skills is divided into branches, and the choice affects the style of play. Some opponents are so strong that it is too early to fight them. The world is filled with danger: mutants, bandits and natural threats wait around every corner. Updates balance things out, and the community releases modifications. Side quests reveal the consequences of the previous war. Companions and factions react to the hero's decisions. Reputation affects access to some tasks. Quests provide experience and equipment. Anyone who enjoys gritty RPG adventures will find this land perfect. Updates correct balance, and mods add equipment. Reviews note the scale of the world and the atmosphere.
