I could find a million defects of this one and pinpoint them,but it wouldn't do any good. And that's because, all in all, I had fun!
Now what I thought of this game was: they had the budget, but not the concept. first of all, the storyline looks like somebody's out of ideas and tries to prolong it desperately adding more and more mainstream RPG stuff. The fact that there were only 3 basic spells was the most disturbing. every other aspect is ,like, shouting that it's not an open-world RPG.Graphics were good, as in really good. Particles and stuff were really nice in HD. But what mainly differentiates this one from previous gothic games is the fact that it was TOO easy in normal mode. I mean, come on lockpicks are so easy a 3-year old could do it!! Anyway, if you're an RPG fan in general, and have spare time and budget, give it a go!

Let's pretend the "Gothic 4" isn't part of the game's title...

This is a movie I made showing off a town and a walk through some of the wilderness. I usually get around 30 or 40 fps with my new 8600 GT.Posted Sep 29, 2007
