i've played all the old gothics game as well as risen. i must say this is by far the best. i think graphically it's better than risen.
Oh yeah, the combat is better in all the previous games, a lot more better. I hate the combat system in this game and I can't see how some people consider it to be good, it's just console garbage.
wow. i started playing this game earlier today. i managed to pull myself from it about 15 hours later.
i'm mostly taking in the environment and just running around the world exploring. i did some quests but just so i could reach other areas of the world.

what's up with all the invisible walls? also you have to jump to 'fall' off a cliff or from high level. in previous games, you just drop to your death. also it seems 360 gamepad works but i can't seem to select to view quest in the log view or buy stuff with the controller. so i've been using the mouse for those things. oh, well.
i'm not sure why folks are complaining about performance issues. it's smooth as butter for me. not a single crash or freezes in 15h of gaming. of course, i have a 1090t amd hexa-core cpu, 8 gb ddr3 ram, and radeon hd 5850 2gb all under w7 x64 os
anyway, i'm gonna dive back in and play some more.
Yes, that's a real one. Sadly it's 1.0, no cracked hotfix which means you'll have dodgy performance. Also; I couldn't get the RLD crack to work (period. At all.) so I used the Trivium one.
Well it's no secret that the MAJOR 1.1 patch is due out this week... so I'm hoping that the groups are just waiting for that one instead, rather than the constant back and forth of cracking hotfix patches and whatnot.
I did it easily on the second try once I had checked the path carefully and noted all stones, a speed rune can help as you can jump several meters if you take a bit of distance before the jump though it's for length and not height.
(Unless it's a bug and it's not fully complete, it could be a script maybe like how certain quests causes changes like creature spawns or area alterations to allow progress to distant areas and the like, would be a problem if so though since there's only one way up from that area but there should be a autosave since there's three of them from before entering the ruins hopefully if it comes to that.)
Thx I kept trying jumping up this afternoon (being sober again) and managed to get out
I've honestly lost interest in this game, only got to Tooshoo. My game is playable and everything but BLAH, there's like nothing enticing me to play more.
I might start again after the new patch gets released (and if it's ever cracked) but I think I'm done with this game for now... ESPECIALLY SINCE NEW VEGAS IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER

Same here, except i finished the game yesterday on a speed run. I lost interest when i finished Tooshoo, the game was way too repetitive for me. I loved the exploration part in this game and thats why i wanted to finish it. From the monastary part to the very end i was running, ignoring all monster on my way, just run run and run forward and never look behind, at some point i was feeling like Forest Gump...
I don't think those are bugs. Anyway finished game last night, took me 44 hours or so. After the monastery game steadily turns into a roller-coaster ride. To make another statement about what it is not: It is no RPG it's more a third-person slasher. Slasher instead of shooter since it lacks guns although the bow with zoom in function
Signature/Avatar nuking: none (can be changed in your profile)
