This game(mod) is far better, satisfying, immersive than any and every modern rpg game. And it accomplishes that with polish voice tract and i don't know any polish :D that alone should tell u allot.

i wouldn't go that far and say than any and every modern rpg while sadly most modern AAA games are soulless nowadays there are still some great games out there like Kingdom come deliverance divinity original sin 1 and 2 baldur's gate 3 cyberpunk 2077

Good Stuff. Probably the second best review of the game I have seen.

"story will have plot holes and inconsistencies if you look too close, so lets not do that" you speak to my soul

I felt the same way, the first chapters of Gothic 1-2 were great because you had choices in joining any faction, the later chapters had the story much more railroaded

Indeed, it is very important to do simultaneously onle one or two quests, if not, you can get issues. This happens for example if Night Patrol.

Really needs voices translated into english with AI to be playable. Yes, it's not like THE original Gothic, but I grew up with the english version, and the voices are nice

@arturstypukowski1279 Ай бұрын

Why does it need voices translated? I thouggt there were English subtitles?

I heard they are planning to add magic rune making in next big release. Looking for runs made magic unhealable as it its hard to find them.

To be honest I am not as much interested in the impact of the ending but rather whenever I can actually reach it without game breaking bugs. Stability is always a huge factor when it comes to fan based dlcs and mods. I just spent 90 hours with Gothic2 NOTR and I enjoyed it a lot more than most modern rpgs and most importantly I could finish the game. I hope that I will be able to compete Chronicles of Myrtana as well instead of spending 40-50 hours with it and then get stuck completely.

I played it once it came out and finished with no game breaking bugs. It's well polished

I would like to be a mage in archolos. But i think that removing that option was plan from start. Yes we do some glourious shit. But still Marvin isnt a chosen one. So gods grace being out of reach has sense.

Gothic is about fashion. Too bad they have not shown some prime examples as guild advertisements.

Archolos has no replay value. The royal road is archer. You're also a melee fighter at the start. So you experience everything with it. That's right, becoming a magician isn't worth it.

@38procentkrytyk 7 ай бұрын

Not as guild but as a character build it is possible to get third or fourth circle so it is possible to play as mage.

@lilsos6892 6 ай бұрын

not true at all. Already played Archolos 4 times. First two times as melee guard/araxos member, third as araxos archer, fourth as guard mage. Mage was probably the most interesting one since it was quite hard until gettin' Mage Set armour.

@mariusskrupskis2042 6 ай бұрын

You are wrong, there also is different endings and quest branches.

one does not simply finish rpg games.

@Sandro_de_Vega 2 ай бұрын

Dude... even without build decision. You have two guilds that play completly different. Adn each guild has two main classes. And even of there will be not replay value... its game for 100 or more ours if you want finish it all(you cant bc to complete game at 100% you need to REPLAY IN DIFFERENT GUILD).

It's really good in Gothic standards the only thing bad is there is no English voice but it's still a 10/10 game when i saw it only has polish voice i tought it will be bad but it was amazing
