currently trying to sell this on an auction site but with less then a day left an no bids and no people watching it doesn't look good.

if it doesn't go i'll be giving it away free to anyone who wants it, just want a few pennies for postage and packaging costs.

before i give it away i might try and get into it again but last time i tried it was such an aweful game. can anyone help me out and let me know if it's worth putting up with, if so why, or if i hsould not even bother and do something else with my time.

thanks
 
All three Gothic games are absolutely amazing, but...you have to love RPGs and exploration in games in order to be able to appreciate it.

For Gothic 3 definitely install 1.70 patch and then 1.71 hotfix, it fixed just about everything there is to fix.

As for myself, I played and finished the whole game (around 80 hours of playtime) with 1.6 patch, it was also playable but with some occasional small bug, nothing major. But even that should be fixed now.

Do not let the beginning fight scare you, once you are free to explore and do quests the game becomes really wonderful.

Gothic 2 was the same on release - unplayable. JoWood are notorious for releasing buggy games, then moving on to next project leaving the community to fix the game. But the point is that the games are so good that community does bother to fix them.
 
There are bugged in this game.
Characters either clip through thin walls or get stuck on solid objects.
Follower characters sometimes cause them to get lost. :(
