Does anyone know if they are going to change the combat system with Gothic III ? If so then I may check it out. The combat just ruins this game for me.
I am so sick of people making ACTION games and calling the RPG's.
Oblivion is one of the worst. I wish I could return my copy of Oblivion.

Sorry but these games are just not for me.
I really miss the old school RPG's.
Between the stupid MMO's and the Oblivion style games RPG's are almost completely dead. Thank god for Neverwinter Nights 2.
