- The Bottom Line:
- "Disappointing"
Being a fan of all the former parts i found this game a major disappointment in almost all sectors.
First of you have beautiful graphics (granted you have a top notch machine) that create a great atmosphere.
This atmosphere is then slowly destroyed by all the other parts of the game.
- Lack of NPC AI
- Boring, repetitiv quests
- Ambiant sound bugs
- Uncounted technical glitches (Most of the major bugs were fixed after the latest patches)
- Lack Balancing in almost every aspect of the game (Loot, Enemies) And the most disapointing factor for an RPG
- Lack of story
- Lack of character interaction with the main characters
You notice everywhere, that there wasn't time to finish this game properly.
With a few patches, that would fix the technical issues, this game would have gotten a 7.
If they fix the story (maybe in an addon), this game would get a 9.

Broken combat, shallow game design overall. An old gothic fan dissapointed.

A disappointing experience of spending hours visiting the same recycled caves and doing the same recycled quests. Shame.
