Developers Piranha Bytes have carved up a fairly interesting corner of the gaming market for themselves. They have been crafting intriguing RPGs for a few years now, and have become well known for their interesting stories, unique approaches, not following the Western design, and yet offering some very wonky gameplay mechanics, lack of polish at launch, and very dated presentation. With ELEX 2, the latest third person RPG from the studio, this trend continues, but steps – however small – are being made to move past the stereotypes, and hopefully towards better things in the future.
ELEX 2 takes place some time after the events of the first game. For newcomers, the sequel could have done a better job of bringing them up to speed on the events and characters of that world, especially given that many return. Players once again assume the role of a gruffly voiced protagonist named Jax. He is a defined character, so there's no visual customization at all. It's the first of many, many unique choices that the game makes that may appeal or discourage fans of more traditional western RPGs. After pretty much saving the fantasy world of Magalan in the first game, Jax has been trying to warn people about the new looming threat, but nobody took him seriously. One day, that threat finally arrives in the form of apparent alien life forms named Skyands, and in his first encounter with them he manages to get infected. Now suffering from an unknown ailment and without support, he encounters a scientist who is trying to stop the alien threat as well. The scientist promises to help Jax find a cure for his infection, if in return he helps form a new faction and unite the others in the fight against the aliens.
From here begins a lengthy narrative as Jax visits every faction in this open world, trying to win their favor and perhaps even join them as a member, all the while gaining companion allies and building up forces at the base called The Bastion. As far as factions go, there's the Albs, emotionless people who Jax was once a part of. The Berserkers and the Outlaws are rough and tough groups that do things their own way. And the Clerics and the Morkons are two factions that place their beliefs above all else. He will also encounter many characters from the previous game, who will be quick to remind him of their differences and personal history. There are even quick flashbacks, though they often don't have enough detail. The story carries a decent pace, and the quests will take you around the map to every faction eventually. The game does run into annoyances in its second half, where all your quests become treks to every far corner of the world, or having to eliminate a random large group of enemies, which gets repetitive.
Where ELEX 2 does succeed is creating an intriguing and believable world, through its writing and occasional player choices. The dialog is well crafted and uniquely laden with modern mannerisms and cursing, and yet it has a certain appeal. Jax's business-first attitude (which can change depending on your dialog selections) has a strange magnetism, and his self-assuredness carries the narrative, which helps justify why he isn't a customizable hero. As Jax visits these factions, he will have to convince them to join the cause by earning their trust – which usually means doing many quests. The quests again range in their quality, though most are at least endearing and off-beat, which is not something you'd find in a typical triple-A western production. With some extra polish and fine tuning, the story and quests would be possibly on par with what a much bigger studio would have delivered.
