This latest Risen 2: Dark Waters 'making of' video goes behind the scenes on Deep Silver and Piranha Bytes' pirate-based RPG once again, this time turning the spotlight onto the decision making processes in the game and the reasoning behind the various quests.

"Across the pass" or "through the jungle" is an example of the kind of decision you'll have to make, and no matter which path you choose, you'll always get a grumpy response. That's pirates for you...

There's also insights into the story, the greatly improved interface and the character of 'the hero', who returns from the first Risen game. Check out the latest Risen 2: Dark Waters developer diary below, then prepare to walk the plank when the game launches on July 31st in North America and August 3rd in Europe.
