>these hacks should have been insolvent after this first pile of utter wank.
they'll never go bankrupt because of their hardcore followership of a couple hundred K people who buy all their games.
there are many mods for 1 which makes it look a bit prettier and less buggy/akward to play. its also not a very long game so I say play it before 2 and if the remake turns out good you be happy to be able to have the comparison
I don't mind awkwardness since I grew up on DOS/early-3d gaming where every game had its own control layout/menu styles. If I do anything it'd be finding a means to get the game to run without issue in a windowed mode if it doesn't officially have support for it.
every time i've played this i get ridiculously overpowered really quickly and the game gets boring
i don't even know what playstyle it's balanced around
The first game is pretty easy, yeah. And with the 100 stat limit there is no need to spec into one thing, you can just level up whatever you feel like and you'll still be powerful
they did a better job with Night of the Raven but Gothic 1 also gets less interesting after chapter 3 so I am thankful you can just kill everything from there no problem
>G3 is the only game where you see more of the world >Gorn and Cor Angar are the only really black people in the entire world >Barely any women either and the few there are are slaves
I did a firt time playthrough a month or so ago and it was really fricking fun. Gonna play the second one soon. Holy shit that last dungeon is pure fricking cancer though.
Piranha games I played subjectively rated by the amount of fun I had with them >Gothic 1 >>> Elex > Gothic 2 vanilla > Risen 2 = Risen > Gothic 2 dNdR
I should replay dNdR sometime not as a mage, now that I'm more tolerant and inclined to autistic min-maxing, metagaming, and abhorrent grinding.
I never got why people complain so much about DNDR difficulty. there is so much meta gaming that you can breeze through everything or you could learn to fight and beat everything or you could slowly build up the game. its not like the game ever forces you to fight anything you cant take so I dont get why people hate it so much
It's not about difficulty, it's about the grind. Gothic 1 wasn't a game about grinding shit. Gothic 2 was mediocre but it also wasn't a game about grinding shit. dNdR is not mediocre but you have to approach it the same way you would approach a Diablo-like ARPG. You first decide on a build and then you grind your way through.
Elex is like that too, actually - the "hobo phase" takes probably 70% of the game before your build suddenly "clicks" together and you become a demigod.
>now that I'm more tolerant and inclined to [awful gameplay]
Why do you do this to yourself?
dNdR has a shitload of content. It's a genuinely respectable expansion because of that.
You have to grind if you want to participate in the character progression which is by far the main thing it changes.
Playing dNdR and not grinding is a backward approach - just play the vanilla then.
There seems to be a plenty of XP to go around, so I've been pretty much leveling almost everything, just got some sick armor from the sailors retreat, dunno why it was being sold there but I'll take it.
Cooking has also been surprisingly enjoyable, great money too.
Played it for the first time last year.
It's insanely good and I wish more games had those controls. Unfortunately I ran to a sequence breaking bug in Gothic 2 and I'm too burned out right now to restart, but definitely will later.
Two issues. Well, my real issue is I was moronic and only kept using one save file instead of rotating regularly.
Game break case one:
Playing NotR. I'm near the end. I've gathered my crew and I'm ready to sail to the final island and finish the game. Cutscene plays, TNO is spawned at the ship, but every npc has disappeared. After exploring the entire island carefully, I consult the walkthroughs and it's adamantly clear something went wrong. I never found any information of this occuring to anyone else, so I was shit out of luck. Previous save file was more than 10 hours ago.
Game break case two:
A week later I'm back for another run, this time I disable NotR because I felt that the expansion story made TNO way too strong after returning back. I proceed to the valley of mines, and the paladin sitting on Gomez's throne tells me to find all the mine sites and report how much ore they've dug. I reach the other two, and the quest is updated as intended. Lastly, I head for Diego, expect I approach him through a path across the mountains. I talk to Diego, which last time triggered him to follow TNO and escape the valley. This time, the options wasn't there. I retreat out of his hideout and the quest log gets updated to TNO discovering the bodies of dead paladins, which effectively overwrites the milestone that I've found Diego.
Therefore, when I returned to the paladin on Gomez's throne, he behaves as if I never found Diego, and prompts me to go look. However, since I exhausted Diego's dialogue options, I can't update my quest status back to where it should be. Once again I was profoundly moronic and didn't keep multiple saves. Too bad.
well, just letting oyu know that the command console is easy to use in gothic, so if something has broken, chances are you can easily fix it there
like changing a chapter, or spawning some item, or changing what guild you belong to etc.
the frick is this UI?
Probably Union with some addons.
Switch UI
AIDS
ya, happy shitting up RPGs for 20+ years. these hacks should have been insolvent after this first pile of utter wank.

They teased Gothic for switch and other consoles. Just like they did with Risen.
zoomers can't play old games without QoL mods
Happy anniversary!
Stop gatekeeping, there are already too few of us.
>there are already too few of us.
How is that a problem.

>Item sorting
>Can have melee weapon in bow slot
>Prbly fast item transfer too
They could at least update PC versions with it
The remake wasn't that bad once you ignored the extra writing and turned off most of the graphic options.
was the nameless hero autistic?
Worth touching the original at this point, or just play 2 and the remake of 1 when it's out?
there are many mods for 1 which makes it look a bit prettier and less buggy/akward to play. its also not a very long game so I say play it before 2 and if the remake turns out good you be happy to be able to have the comparison

world of gothic has all your mod needs. I like the sprint and fast loot one for non performance/graphics issues
Play the original, then play 2.
I wouldn't count on the remake being any good.

I wanna be 12 again. why do we have to age?
We age so we can look back and appreciate what we had before we had a broad enough palette to properly judge how good/bad a thing was in hindsight.
kek, zoomers really are braindead
Enjoy your irredeemable goyslop, homosexual.
Stick to Ubishit, queer.
gothic 2 is bad because i beat gothic 1 before playing it
t. zoomer
In honor of this game here is a review about JANKY games
Gothic remake is looking great, can't wait to eat again lads, we be starvin for proper third person rpg
Is it true that it's coming to switch? What's next? Thief and deus ex? Why is the switch getting all good old PC games and why is it so great?
*falls down mine shaft*
Mr.T is in Gothic?

Why does PB insist on making action RPGs?
>G3 is the only game where you see more of the world
>Gorn and Cor Angar are the only really black people in the entire world
>Barely any women either and the few there are are slaves
It was a different time anon. Also are they even meant to represent Black folk? They look more like some arabs.
They're conan the barbarian black. With easternish vibe.
we dont talk about the third game
With a shitton of fixes and the content mod and whatnot it's not that horrible
there was more named women in the second game than in the third
like much more
all video games should have no women except for some eye candy bikini babes
which friend are you?
I wanna say I am Diego but we all know I am Lester like most of us itt
yeah, because there was a brothel in that one, lmao
get stuck in bros
why would I watch 2 hours of some moron rambling about a 20 year old series, when I know for certain that I've played it much more than he ever did
Get off my board
>Nothing to be had there...
>Nothing to plunder!
I did a firt time playthrough a month or so ago and it was really fricking fun. Gonna play the second one soon. Holy shit that last dungeon is pure fricking cancer though.
I always just run past all the enemies when you have to go back.

You have to grind if you want to participate in the character progression which is by far the main thing it changes.
Playing dNdR and not grinding is a backward approach - just play the vanilla then.
>now that I'm more tolerant and inclined to [awful gameplay]
Why do you do this to yourself?
Oh shit I was just playing Archolos, it's really fun.
Got my citizenship permit, you best believe I'm going to become everyones apprentice.
My brother is missing? Who gives a shit, time to go on an adventure!
Based, Archolos was awesome. I'll probably replay at some point as a mage.
There seems to be a plenty of XP to go around, so I've been pretty much leveling almost everything, just got some sick armor from the sailors retreat, dunno why it was being sold there but I'll take it.
Cooking has also been surprisingly enjoyable, great money too.
Becone locksmiths apprentice if you want to make a lot of money, you can sell him valuables for great prices
Nice, I think you can become every job, right? I don't see why not.
Gotta do it all for that sweet sweet XP.
You can only get one, and the option to get a second one becomes available pretty far into the game
Oh shit, seems like I need to be careful then.
Guess I'll just progress the quests as much as possible without signing up.
Played it for the first time last year.
It's insanely good and I wish more games had those controls. Unfortunately I ran to a sequence breaking bug in Gothic 2 and I'm too burned out right now to restart, but definitely will later.
what kind of a bug? what did it break?
chances are it's easy to fix

Based, this game and the sequel were pure and unadultered SOUL
good shit
Love Gothic so much bros. Even Chronicles Of Myrtana is awesome, but I never finished it.
