Any Gothic Series Fans here

[cryptonian717]

So I just finished the remastered demo of gothic 1. It seems to be very well done, I cant wait to play the game again, however I think that it is kind of a dead project because the demo has been out for quite some time already.

Any other fans here?

I've only played the third one (with the community patch), and really loved it.

The Risen series is okay, but much less engrossing imho.

I have been looking forward to the release of the remastered earlier games, so I do hope they make an appearance soon.

If you have the patience to give a try to older games gothic 1 and 2 have a way more engaging story than gothic 3. I played everything from the franchize, patches, community patches, gothic 3 forsaken gods dlc, gothic 4 even - which I dont recommend (story starts, you keep walking straight up - cant go left or right in the in between towns environment and eventually you finish the story by walking forward)

Loved the series, bugs and all. Did not even know there was a remaster happening - found some new visuals posted on 15th March 2021 so looks like it is still in the works.

I was a lot younger when I played gothic 1, however that is the storyline that gave me goosebumps and made me feel like I am actually living it myself

I know what you mean when you talk about bugs of gothic 3 ) couldn't finish it because the fire chalices were missing from my copy initially )

Something very similar happened with gothic 1 which I couldnt finish without cheats. Right at the end before the fight with the priests of the sleeper I could not pass the bridge without the game crashing, so I had to type Maven in the console I believe and press K or J to just skip forward over the bridge.
