A perfect combination of RPG and action.

User Rating: 8.8 | Gothic PC
Gothic is a game that combines RPG and action, and I think it does very well. Unlike most of that kind of games, is more an RPG than an action game. The most important thing here is to gain exp. to learn more abilities and become stronger. But the action part is very entertaining and challenging. The combat control is a bit strange at the beginning, but towards the end of the game it becomes much more easy (as you improve your character's abilities).

The best thing in Gothic is the complete freedom you have, especially at the first chapters. So you are as free as in Morrowind but with a much better interface and an amazing storyline.

I have played Gothic after Gothic II, which is a game I loved. So, It wasn't a surprise. However, It seems to me that there isn't much difference between them in terms of quality. Gothic is a bit shorter than the sequel and a worse technically, of course, but the gameplay experience and the story is equally exciting.

So, Gothic is a good action game and except Ocarina Of Time, the best RPG I ever played.
