well this is eurojank at its finest, but its not too bad. there is some clunkyness for sure, but the overall map design and rpg progression feels so good. Though i cant see myself doing another game cause the overall jank was enough for 1 time. still recommended though.

Great game this is the deserved sequel for Gothic we got. The game was compatible fully with the use of controller, the only thing I've noticed was that the game audio was too low (even if I changed the config properties file the game could not had higher volume).
The combat experience is really enjoyable as you can perform Evade, Block and Parry, this adds a lot of possibilities to beat any enemy that out matches you.

It's a solid RPG in Piranha Bytes' signature hardcore and grim style. The world feels very real and the comb at is a bit more forgiving than in their other games. Give it a shot if you like dark fantasy.

At the beginning of the game .. the combat is not great. no target lock.. weak weapons and you are always lower than the npc. the game balance is really bad... struggle to kill wolves and stuffs at the beginning of the game will turn people off starting to play it

The other reviews are right, this is remarcably good.
i was so surprised at the quality of writing and dialogue and how much the first city feels alive with all the different quest options and how everyone talks to you.
not sure if the rest of the game is gonna hold up to the beggining but at least the first part is phenomenal.

I played it when i was little more times than i can remember, replaying now after all these years it feels even greater, The story is amazing the game-play is very basic and a lil hard to master the camera is weird but with the story and world will make u forget about it, I would very much recommend it and play it only if u can put aside the combat

Not as good as Gothic 2 but it's a fine enough play if you like them. Still janky and awkward but nice adventure.
6.5/10 from me.

A hidden gem—if you enjoy a good, challenging RPG, I highly recommend it. It can be a bit janky and somewhat outdated, but still well worth playing.
