Risen on Steam sale. Worth playing?

As the topic states is it a decent RPG? It looks pretty good and for $15 seems like a decent price. Really the only reason I'm not certain is because it uses F***ing TAGES for DRM and a game has to be damn good before I'll put that garbage on my PC.

Yes its worth picking up, I really enjoyed the game world, the gameplay, the rpg elements and the voice acting (Golum from LOTR).

Beat the game twice and nto had any issues with drm or crashes.

Ya, Risen is a good game. I'll buy it, if it were 10€, so I'll wait untill the next sale :P

DRM Oh i had no idea? Good game you will have a great 1st play through. My only issue with the game is the lack of items available IE Armour Weapons etc tho that may get better in the later chapters. Although i had explored pretty much everywhere i lost my save game due to a Double Hard Drive death.

An absolute must buy if you enjoy Gothic, but you should definitely do a bit more research into it if you never played that game, because it just gives you the basics and leaves you to learn the rest of the game the hard way, and its a bit different from your typical RPG game.

Don't worry about the DRM though, its pretty much nonexistent (never even knew it used TAGES).

retail version has no drm, only digital does :?

Can't decide on this game either, arghh! Still have a few hours to think about it.

You can also try Two Worlds 2 and Divinity 2 if you decide not to buy Risen.

I was playing it 6+ hours a day in my first playthrough.
