Should be better than expected...

User Rating: 7.5 | Gothic 3 PC

The game generally looks great, but it hurts from some bug issues which makes the gameplay somewhat distracting. I didn't complete the game, though it was good, but when it came to the animals, as someone here mentioned: they were sometimes overpowered and killed me in a moment. I found that hard and therefore quit playing. Maybe the characters could swing their weapons more randomly, not the same wave again and again... makes it feel empty. The game simply gives you the RPG feeling, and the best part in the Gothic franchise, you can choose whether you want to be a bad guy(ORCS)or a good guy(REBELS). That I must say is something you can't find in many good games, like Oblivion for instance, which of course is a GREAT game.

Being a Mage was not as hopefully as I thought, the sound quality on the spells, the lightning spell for instance, sounded like a 8-bit crap game.

Apart from that, it looks good, so does the graphics. Some patches/fixes, eventually the upcoming expansion pack, could make the game likely more playable. As of the problems with the graphics.

A good trilogy for RPG gamers worldwide!

7.5/10

    Gothic III is like a woman who irritates you until the point you want to break up, but who in the last minute knows how to coax you into staying with her. I LOVE YOU when swarming orcs fall around me in an epic comba... Read Full Review
