of course, the first rpg to have polish was the witcher, but gothic was good too

>>
>>318143125
>but it didn't have the weird fuck dialogue
Yeah, because reading a wikipage in stead of actual speaking is so much better.
>or the wobbly animation
Because wax figures standing in corner 24/7 occasionally doing the robot is better? Because that's how every NPC was in Morrowind.
>>
>>318148276
Yeah it got Flora overhaul mods as well. It make everything much more lusher and picturesque. The mod really worth all the trouble trying to get it to run.

The first two Gothic games plust the expansion Night of the Raven are to this day the best open world RPGs ever made.

>>
>>318156802
Well yeah. Five more years and they could have added content to the world, a story and polished the gameplay.
What they had to release was a shitty sandbox without modsupport and lots of bugs. Simillary to TES, but worse.

No. But it is much smaller and they didn't write an engine from scratch.
Not saying that PB didn't fuck up big times, but the forced early release is an argument in their favour.

Play the first game first. Honestly mastering the controls is one of the best part of the game, despite how strange that might sound.

Start your gothic 2 game without the Night of the Raven addon. Save it for the next playthrough in a few months/year, trust me. Try to explore as much as you can, don't be afraid of dying, make a lot of saves.

NotR is amazing and the only downside is needing to git gud
>>
>>318172650
It's much more interesting to come back to the game with the addon for a second playthrough and having all these new things to do on top rather than dump it all down to a new player all at once.
>>
>>318172817
It's much more interesting to just play all the new things and marvel in the scope of it all, and then play the whole thing again for a second playthrough
>>
>>318172650
I'm getting some mixed messages here

But usually playing through a game in a "vanilla" state before adding things is the right way to go

Also that fucking dark souls meme triggers me
>>
>>318172912
>vanilla state
I'd use that term for mods, not for the official expansion pack. They're basically telling you to play the normal version, then the enhanced version, rather than just playing the full game from the start.
>>
>>318172905
> marvel in the scope of it all
But that is factually wrong, given the state and nature of today's players. Content dumps often confuses the player and notr adds a shit ton of new stuff. Case in point modded bethesda games, how many people spend days on modding morrowind only to give up playing it after a few hours, and it has little to do with the game's mechanics or the awful engine but with the massive amount of content if you were wondering.

I'm curious, how did you play the game?
Did you play it on release or after the expansion release, because if it's the latter, there really is no way I could convince you
>>
>>318173437
>Did you play it on release or after the expansion release, because if it's the latter, there really is no way I could convince you
The latter. I can't imagine wanting to play the game without Jharkendar and all the additional changes.

>But that is factually wrong, given the state and nature of today's players.
I'm willing to give the anon we're replying to the benefit of the doubt. If I'm wrong, he's a retard and nothing of value was lost anyway
>>
>>318172912
If you don't have trouble navigating through heaps of content, play with the expansion. But please don't go out of it complaining about terrible pacing or what-not when you finish it.
>>
>>318173613
Yeah, that's fine. It's just that you can see even the l'hiver advisors advocate to play without it as a first playthrough. There's just a LOT of shit in gothic in vanilla as it is.
>>
Ok, how do I get these games to run?
>>
>>318139352
I loved the subtlety of mayan culture when the game came out, but then they had to expand and ruin it with jharkendar in raven... which was pretty good gameplay wise, but awful in terms story-lore. I believe it was just pandering to the fans from the forums, then the same happened with pirates.

Is Risen really worth it?

I played though Gothic 1 and 2 and made me love them so much that i compare almost every RPG to them.

I played Risen once and got to the point where you need to reach the town and i left it there because i had shit to do and never played it again.

Should i give it a try?
>>
>>318174552
All of them and Windows 7
>>
>>318175436

The first Risen is alright.

Risen 2 and 3 though? Utter shit.
>>
>not even the plethora of mods and overhauls can fix gothic 3
Every year I try to give it another chance but for every small good thing there's five terribad shit. I always do this to myself, load up the installers and see all this cool CHOICES it offers me like Did I throw the claw of beliar or keep it, as if it's going to do some substantial change to the game, at least give me a dialog line about it, not even an unvoiced one. It's such a shame, man.
>>
>>318148276
it doesn't touch textures and models at all? how does the render make all this difference?
>>
>>318170224
Or you could shrink them, but spamming goblin skeletons or demons was the shit, i remember going hunting on the wilds to get gold to be able to buy scrolls and shit.

Also the final boss and having that lighting sword that didnt do shit to the undead dragon, i shit my pants for the first time in a long time and fucking restored to use EVERYTHING i had in my inventory.

Remember when you pick up a potion or a scroll and you say "i better use it when i really need it" and then you hoard tons of potions,scrolls and other shit?

I had motherfucking fireworks with the final boss thoriwng everything i had, also that scroll to vanish undead did fucking ton of damage.

why does ths happen
>>
>>318176062
It's a double-edged sword, some parts are cool, most is pretty bad. I play it for sentimental value.

If you end up playing it, make sure you apply the community patch, the content mod, and if you'd like the questpaket. It doesn't really do that much of a difference, but it's better than vanilla.

>>318176267
>gothic 3
>starts out ok
More like starts out fucking amazing, that opening intro was hype as shit, and the opening fight, like the first 10 seconds before you realize what the combat is.
>>
>>318175597
jesus yeah. The very first bit of Risen 2, with the flaming island surrounding the outpost, was cool. Then the rest of the game happened. Fucking pirates.
>>
>>318176589

The boss fights were seriously underwhelming.
>>
If you have Gothic 2 Gold edition on steam, do you get to choose if you want to play with NotR active?
Game seems daunting as is, so adding hardcore mode for a first timer seems like it could turn me off of it.

Not really true, gothic 1 stays great up until the end levels, which are really cancerous.

Gothic 2 stops being fun when you need to fix the eye.

If you're gonna play Risen you might as well play Gothic 3. It's tolerable with the fixes and lowered expectations from how shitty the genre has become

>>318179740

put some points into stamina, twohanded is the hardest thing for the alternate AI that just blocks everything.

Take out the post-punk part and you got it
>>
>>318183240
The guitar partiture is very reminiscent of slow ambient black-metal(similar to burzum) and early post punk. I assume the developers, were influenced by germanic paganism, you can see it surface in the lore as well.
>>
>>318183652
I was assuming you were referring to the drumming when you were talking about the post-punk influence --

It just sounds like generic "dark folk" noodling, m8.

recommended mods or can i just play vanilla?

millenials
>>
>>318184721
you received a letter at the beginning, didn't that give you an idea where to head next lol
>>318184820
play vanilla first and then you can try to install dark mysteries as an addon (it's basically NotR for gothic 1)
>>
I got RIsen on the last sale as I was told its made by Gothic devs. Risen 1 was golden, so simillar to Gothic by all terms, hell even the main city looks like Gothic 2's Khronitis (dunno the exact name, sorry m8s).

You can actually enjoy Risen 1 as it has more or less Gothic style combat where you need to mix combos, dodges and tactics to defeat the enemy. But Risen 2 and Risen 3 completely get rid of that system so instead now winning a fight means spamming left click untill the enemy dies. Kinda lame, but watcha gonna do.
>>
>>318185675
what I liked about risen was that at first it seems that we world is really small and then more parts open as you go and it turns out to be the perfect open world size, same as gothic 1 and 2 - not overwhermingly huge and not created using a generator
>>
>>318185921
Games with compact, hand crafted open worlds with lots of shit to do and discover are far superior to games that try to break records with the size of their huge, empty open world.
