The Bottom Line:

"Masterpiece"

I first got my hands on Gothic II and simply loved it,so I wanted to give a try to the first part.I had a lot of trouble to get my copy of the game becouse it was already a bit out of date.I finally founded it on one of those e-buy pages and waited for it to be delivered.
And boy,it was worth waiting.It was all I was hoping for and more.
Gothic,which I will rate based on GothicII I played first,was almost as good as the second part.It has a lot of missions and the world is pretty big for the time game was realised.Well,not as big as Elder Scroll games but still pretty big and you can spend a lot of time exploring it.Missions are well balanced and will take you from one part of the world to another and will get harder and harder as the game passes and you grow.
Controls are a bit tricky if you never played Gothic game.As I was playing Gothic II first and GothicI second,I was already used to them but everyone who plays game for the first time,might have some problems geting used to them but once you get them it is all about fun.
All in one this is a great game and I would highly recommend it to any RPG fan.
