You can backstep and dodge monster attacks friendo. It's one of the reasons i like combat in G2 way more.

If they hit you too hard you are probably underleveled. If you don't hit hard enough get better gear. There are plenty of ways to do that. Usually you always have better weapons that you can't use due to lack of stats so just increase those.

Wait for them to charge, backstep,immediately follow iwth a single quick attack, repeat.

This strategy can be used against literally any enemy that charges, that is 90% of the monsters (including orcs) and some NPCs.

Actually the most dangerous enemy in terms of AI is the molerat since he never charges and his attack pattern is competly random and impossible to predict- he can stare at you and do nothing for like 5 seconds, then proceed to start attacking like crazy out of nowhere.

If molerats had the HP and damage of snappers they would be a nightmare.

>>
>>343537056
>dragon snappers keep charging and attacking though
But that's exactly what you want, when you attack them they back off a little bit and charge again as soon as the "hurt" animation ends, this is where you backstep again and reepaet the whole proccess.

It only gets tricky once you have to deal with more of them since then it requires tiing your backsteps in order to avoid getting hit by all the snappers.

>and i always go 2 handers
I always prefered 1 handed because the master level side attack is ridiculously fast and so is backstep animation, but 2 handers get the reach advantage.

But bows/crossbows do damage skellies, if you arem aking a pure DEX build you should have enough damage to deal with them no problem.

Protip: if you are inside the forest (or in area that just has a lot of trees around) you can actually find a lot of tress that have branches low enough to climb on them and shoot away at anything chasing you while being completly safe.

It takes some practice and positioning to actually jump up rather than forward but it's not too hard.

Just remember to toggle walking just before jumping up, it also prevents from falling down over the edges and those branches are so small you WILL fall down without toggled walking.

They are wrose but their reach does come in handy in one specific situation.

What I'm talking about is the fact that when you fight with an NPC who has a wepaon with long reach himself, sometimes after the backstep you own't be able to hit him immedietaly with a 1hander, you will need to spend a second to move a little closer to get a hit.

While 2handers can just keep backstepping and atacking without any additional movements.

Why was 4 so bad? I played it and it was okay but compared to the previous entries it just didn't stack up. Even the Risen games are better.

It also had that weird abrupt ending and the expansion didn't fix it. In fact that one's ending is just as abrupt.

Because the original dev team left after Gothic 3's base game was forced out early. The publisher hired some no-name Indian dev team to shit out an expansion and do Gothic 4.

Original dev team went on and started the Risen series. Risen 1 is basically a reimagining of Gothic 1. Risen 2 is pretty shitty, but 3 is decent enough.

Well, Novigrad probably had more >details, intertwined questlines and hidden secrets
but while I loved that game, it was mostly because it was probably as big as entire G1 map.
Gothic 2 Khorinis was a unbeatable masterpiece in that regard - almost every (if not every) house, tower and structure had some meaning to different quests, NPCs had great routines, it felt like a city full of despair and panic because of impending Orc treat and was comfy as fuck.

Also 10/10 usage of space.

Not everyone left. Some important key figures left though.

The games while being flawed all had great world designs. The way everything was placed just looked nice.

And ELEX is going to be like that as well so i guess those designers still work there. But what i really miss KaiRo doing the OSTs.

>Sascha Henrichs left who did 3D Models

>>343541861
Most problems come with them appealing to the console crowd and not putting enough effort into everything.

People miss stuff like needed to work for cards and lack of quest markers. Or animations for stuff like eating and drinking. Not to mention that they dumbed down the combat for controllers.

Currently playing through G1 for the first time. Already looking around for the [spoilers]focus stones[/spoilers]. Beginning was rough, but now I'm raping everything below Orc Warrior level (including those if they are not in groups, which is rare, saving all my firestorm scrolls for those).

Is it worth it investing in 2H skill L2 ? Bought L1, and tried with the Orc weapons you find in the Orc Cemetary and they feel a bit shitty, when the 1H death sword you find there is only 4 points of damage less and swings faster.
>>
>>343544284
The Orc weapons are not that great, because they have shitty range for 2H.
You can try opening the chests near Stone the blacksmith in the Old Camp. They shouldn't give a shit about you doing it, and there should be a 2H sword with 60-ish damage and good range in the chest.
Still I would wait for L2 to use it, since L1 is still noticeably slower.

It might be an issue with the mood of the game itself.

I agree, in Gothic 2 you never actually gain much respect from anyone but former colony convicts who already know you. Fuck, even to save the world you need to STEAL the ship from paladins who tell you to fuck off with worldsaving business.
Gothic 1 has a much more grim set-up, but you're actually treated like a princess every step of the way. Diego is like a caring mom, everyone at Old Camp except cunts like Gomez and Raven are quite nice people, New Camp is full of bros, Sect is just a bunch of laid back stoners. 5 hours into the game you're pretty much a national hero

3 was a far larger open world, but Piranha Bytes/JoWood were notorious for low optimization. I remember it was years before fan patches made Guild 2 playable. Vanilla Gothic 3 was borderline unplayable unless you had a very specific rig. Eventually it got updated though.

Publishers like Nordic or Deep Silver give them a timewindow in which they need to finish the game and during that time they get paid.
>>
>>343551096
more likely you just crit a monster you would not do damage to otherwise.
the way armor works in this game is 1:1 ratio with the attack so if you got 10 attack and the enemy got 10 defense you will do no damage but crits ignore armor completely.
>>
>>343551096
You're simply not going through their armour/resist. Also, I remember Gothic 1 having buggy animations, especially on combos

You'd have to minmax the shit out of your character to succeed, since mages in Gothic 2 NEED to invest in physical combat. As per usual, if you do manage to get to spoopy skelly summoning, the rest is cakewalk

Word.


Also I hate the way it's in mountain blade. Your char already walks like a disabled turtle forwards, but is literally incapable of moving backwards in time. 99% of swings that should be avoided with a single step backwards still hit you. It just feels like shit.

You can't say they didn't care, because they never knew about it in the first place. I got G1-3 on a whim at my gamestore the year 3 released, the owners didn't even know what they game was about. Jowood didn't give a fuck about advertising in America or England, so they only have themselves to blame.
Risen 2, 3, and Arcania were hot garbage because they were made for console players in general, not American console players. They sell consoles all over Europe.
>>
>>343536975

>min/maxing quests

that's the worst thing about gothic 2
you know you will get 3 or 4 times the exp for a quest if you do it a couple chapters later, so you end up making a plan when to hand in which quest... it's just tedious but I can't accept lower exp

not to mention all the other stuff like, always go to 29 points and use another 5 to get 4 for the low price, talk that person in that order to get the soup that gives you 1 strength, but don't drink the soup or read the stones before you have passed all the cheap points for strength etc. - incredibly tedious
>>
>>343552152
Minmaxing is entirely unnecessary in vanilla G2, and NOTR was made specifically for hardcore fans who complained about the game being 'too easy'
>>
>>343551096
Some enemies, mostly those based on wolves, snappers and lizards do a little backstep when getting hit, which negates the damage they take, even though the animation and sound effect indicate that they should have taken damage.
Another enemy who does that are skeletons.
>>

that's how it is, yet all the conditionals and smallminded point hunting isn't difficulty but only tedium
NOTR is difficult because you have a harder time getting gud stats, yet they could have just made those bonus point count extra and fixed the 4 points for lower price thing instead and made quests give same exp at every chapter etc.
so basically just take all those things out that don't add anything but forcing you to either restart the game or go back to an earlier save because you missed those 2 strength points because you forgot to talk to that one bitch...

In the early game you abuse the shit out of the staff, rings and amulets that give mana for free when you take them off and put back on to summon goblin skellies or shoot some ice bolts.
Later on you can shit on things with lightning and the endgame is a cakewalk with aoe spells

just be a bowfaggot like in risen

>>343553137

cmon mate nobody needed to go bow in risen
it was all about massive back jump --> attack --> massive back jump --> attack.... repeat until enemy dead
there wasn't a single enemy that couldn't be beat with that

It's good with the community patches, just don't expect gothic 2, 3 is very large but less detailed

>>343551758
You don't have to minmax anything, you'll just have a hard fucking time unless you abuse summons.

>mages in Gothic 2 NEED to invest in physical combat
No they don't, it's purely a matter of convenience.

And even then 30% in 1 handed and STR/DEX just from bonuses is enough.

>has the chance to have that cool master 1h fighting pose
>doesn't use it

There's no amount of mana, trophies or useless runes that will prevent my mage from being a master melee fighter
>>
why does this game have such a retarded control set up?

honestly, I wish joy2key worked with Gothic 1/2 so I could play them on my SNES controller.
>>
>>343558667
What's retarded about it?

It not only works, it can be also played on keyboard only.

Go to Jarkendar and cheese the area to get the Beliar Claw

>Saturas keeps shouting at me for like 5 minutes about that fucking ore mound
>can't tell him it was Xardas' idea anyway

But why. Dammit Saturas, shut up.
>>
>>343561424
Worst Water faggot.
Vatras is God, he should be the next Addanos.
He'd make the Central Realms/Myrtana great again.
>>
>>343561424
It wouldn't change shit anyways because how would Saturas feel better about that?

>The dark mage told me to do it
>>
>>343561701
Because it was him who kept insisting that I must get help from Xardas. Well fuck you, faggot, I did. And it worked out. But Saturas is like herp derp the Barrier just disappeared for no reason.

God damn. But of course, what was I even expecting of the guy whose master plan was to blow up the entire fucking colony.

Seriously though, it kind of bothered me that you couldn't tell him about Xardas' plan. I don't see why he would disagree if the three of you just sat down and discussed the plan.
>>
>>343562239
He is a bitch and always stays a bitch who thinks he is always right.

Some people are just like that.

Good thing Vatras exists.
>>
>>343562382
Vatras is a cool guy, I like him. However it was not so cool of him to force me to spill literally everything just so I can get his blessing to tan hides or whatever.

I mean, it's pretty hilarious that Xardas flat out asks you to never talk about him to anyone, and then you just go
>Hey Lester, see that tower there? Ya, that's Xardas' place. Wanna hang out? I'm sure he wouldn't mind you using his bed.
>Yes Vatras, Xardas the necromancer really is alive and I'm acting on his orders, can I get that blessing now?
>Aw shit Lee, how are you man? Yeah, me and Xardas are totally still bffs, just wait until you hear what he got me into this time...

>>343558667
It just takes some practice to get used to. After an hour or so you should have it down no problem.

Although after investing hours into Gothic 1 and becoming a crazy powerful fighter, it's kind of jarring to jump straight into Gothic 2 and have your swings be slow as shit. Also there's a weird issue in Gothic 2 where using the strafe keys to do a side-swing after a regular forward swing glitches out and makes you strafe instead of side-swinging. Had to switch my strafe and turn keys so I didn't keep screwing up swings.
>>
>>343563295
The weirdest part was how molerats and scavangers turned into level 4-5 enemies. Scavs have crazy long range and can take quite a lot of damage, so you can't do much against them until you can equip something with alright range, and molerats are just pure evil.

Also, is it just me, or did lizards go from weaker Lurkers meant for level 5 or so characters to fucking rape machines? I can take out Lurkers easily, but if I see a lizard I just nope out of the area.

Also, goblin skellies are the stuff of nightmares. Until you throw a fireball at them.
>>
>>343564267
Lurkers and Lizards were easy for me.

But Fire Lizards? Fuck that SHIT.
I'd rather take 4 falcon punch Golems at the same time.
>>
>>343564487
I find lizards strange. Lurkers I can take down in about three or four hits, less if I get a crit. Lizards, though? I need around twenty. It's like I barely damage them and never get a crit. RNG can be a bitch, but no crit in ~150 hits? That was about the time my patience ran out and I just started avoiding them. Strangely enough magic works well, but I'm not desperate enough to start buying scrolls en masse yet.
>>
>>343565010
A mage has no problems with even fire lizards as soon as chapter 2. When I played mage I could not believe how weak to magic they were.

Nice

It's simply X16 with everything on highest except for drawing ranges which are 30 for normal objects and 10 for small objects. X17 makes some things better. Anything above like recent test builds is kind of fucked up. Also, to enable DSR I had to change my desktop resolution to DSR too because game wouldn't let me change resolution to 4k.
>>
>>343558426
My feelings exactly.
And my thanks goes to the anon who suggested that I should focus on leveling one-handed before strength, it is working out splendidly. Only one more level to go until 60%. So close.

Anyway, I have a single spare LP. What should I spend it on?

PS, X17.1 is good and I have shadows on "update dynamic".
>>
Any mods for Risen? I feel like finally giving it a try.
>>
>>343567292
Don't think there is anything worth mentioning. Saw a few rebalance mods that add enemies or change some placements. But thats something for people who already finished the game.
