DESCRIPTION

Gothic II returns players to Khorinis, but the magical barrier around the mines has been removed and players are free to explore the entire island of Myrtana. A civil war rages between the ex-convicts, the militia, and the evil orcs. Three different guild factions — the paladins, the mages, and the dragonslayers — exist, and players must choose only one. The economy in Gothic II is depressed and, with merchants demanding outrageous prices for weapons, players may choose to forge their own blades and save money. The developers at Piranha Bytes focused on improving the AI of non-player characters — monsters present more of a challenge in Gothic II — and drastically changed the thief system. Pickpockets can be very successful, but the risks are greater. Much like Gothic, the NPCs in Gothic II remember how players behave and react accordingly. Players experience a world where every decision has consequences. ~ All Game Guide
