Apart from the events of Chapter 2, not much happens in
Episode 2: Assembly Required. Magnus and Ellegaard’s lines are mostly reserved for bickering with each other, which is to be expected, as some as-of-yet unexplained incident drove them all apart. But in terms of storytelling, it’s a worn out cliché that most players will be bored by.
Apart from that, not much ground is broken and not much progress is made. A traveling companion shares a distressing secret, the location of the third Order member is revealed, and Ivor makes an unsurprising appearance, all the while the Witherstorm contentedly devours the world at a steady clip. A mid-episode choice changes the circumstances of our heroes’ journey to the north, but all roads lead to the same cliffhanger.
