DESCRIPTION
Gothic provides role-players with a classic fantasy world that changes throughout the course of the adventure. Orcs have invaded and the ruler of the realm has put all the kingdom's prisoners to hard labor in the mines, hoping their toil will help support the war effort. The player's character begins as a messenger from the king, sent to the mines with information that could have serious repercussions. Over 250 non-player characters populate the lands in Gothic, each of whom has likes, dislikes, and a daily routine. NPCs remember their interactions with the player's character and react appropriately in future meetings. Many NPCs follow certain ideologies and a character's alliances can influence perceptions, though as the story develops old enemies may become useful allies and former friends may enter into unforeseen rivalries. ~ T.J.

“I hate this game very badly, and I could never get into it due to how terrible everything is. When I try to play this game, the controls itself is fucking awesome, I've never played a game that make it difficult to pick certain items up, in most games, all I have to do is hit the mouse button or spacebar, however here, it's ctrl+up.... why not just a single key? not only that, but they did not even give me a simple tutorial in the game at all, leaving me confused with not only controls, but how to navigate the inventory, purchasing and selling, and whatnot...
Not only does the control sucks, so does combat... I've been getting my ass kicked by people when I'm doing a mission. Once I followed a guy to get a stolen amulet, only to be know as a ambushed, trying to attack both man, one I sent running away, then a guard came, and guess what? HE ATTACKED ME! I WAS THE ONE BEING ATTACKED! STUPID AI!
The music in this game is kinda lame and boring, get tired of listening it over and over, hell even the intro movie won't play currently, just a black screen, on both the intro and when I start the game...
Not only that, this game is unstable, and buggy as hell, with people that I try to kill having infinity HP, I don't hardly ever get a new blade around.... I just got fed up with this game immediately and uninstalled it.... I forever hate this game and the rest of the Gothic series, as each and every one of them that I've played are nothing but a giant piece of shit... whoever develop this series, I hope they go bankrupt. No wonder this game NEVER got any fame to the public.”

“Played in the original German version (uncut nudity, yay!) and didn't do much so far. Went into the Old Camp and talked to a bunch of people. And I'm being followed by Mud, didn't kill him ... yet.”

“Another game I wanted to like; interesting idea, interesting backstory. Dated graphics and an inflexible, clunky UI makes this game hard on people who didn't buy it the second it came out or who have played any other action/combat RPGs (like the Elder Scrolls games, etc).
I've been told the later games got better, but why risk it?”

“This game seems very different so far, that's for sure. I keep dying constantly to these weird bird creatures that keep pecking me. Good thing I have a decent supply of blueberries.”

“Imo it's the best game from the Gothic series. It may not have the best graphics but the atmosphere created is simply amazing. Also liked the little 'live' act of In Extremo in the Old Camp.”
