Gothic used to be one of my favorite games. The story is a lot of fun and really makes you want to play the continuation of the series. The graphics are of course not as nice as for example in Gothic 3, which came out 5 years later but the game play is enjoyable anyway. The best part of it is probably getting stronger, and getting better equipment all the time. Another great thing about the game is the orchestral music. I actually played Gothic twice because there are many different ways of developing as a character and joining different fractions. I really recommend the entire trilogy, especially the third one, although I preferred the feeling in Gothic 1. Gothic is a great game for you if you are interested in RPGs.
Also it is very affordable today and will not be a hard task for your hardware unless your PC is really, really old. Have fun - Felix
