Since i saw Gothic 4 i have no reason to look forward to this.


"Gothic 4" Was not made by PB, the publisher got another dev to make it, the same publisher that, reportedly, caused Gothic 3 to be such an unfinished mess.

Gofuckingdamnit....

ARCANIA (which does not deserve the Gothic title) was made by SPELLBOUND, not PB.

Gothic 3 wasn't bad, it just had the story of the previous games streched over a three times larger area. It also lacked proper pacing. Both Risen 1 and 2 were fine. Risen 1 was a Gothic game, just named differently, Risen 2 had some wonky mechanics but was pretty enjoyable and it was good to see some innovation.

Gothic 5/Risen 3 will be made also for next gen (or rather current gen now) consoles, so we will see a return to vast open areas. I simply cannot wait Smile Yes, even considering that the core of PB is no more.

/me WANTZ MOAR BOAR ATTACKZ!
This should be enough for G3. Even with one of community patches I still got locked, unable to block or break from mighty boar attack.
Risen 1 was okish, yet boring for me.
I still miss G1 Sad

It was actually said a LONG time ago that new Gothic is coming:

There are no actual news here, just status updates now.

Me neither.

There is no one left from old good PB team. May be 1-2 people tops. The rest are scattered. At best new team will produce a masterpiece worthy of title Arcania II.

I'm not sure what that has to do with what I said

I realise it is coming, I was the first reply to the thread. But it was definitely on this board where I read a quote that said it wouldn't be a viable option to make it like the older games due to the scope + expectations modern gamers have. I can't remember if it was a dev quote or not but it made sense at the time.

I remember that quote. I don't think they were worried about finances, they didn't really want to make a new Gothic game because the expectations were too high (i.e. chances of disappointment are too high). SOmething like that.

Why? Give me one reason?

I understand why I pledged for Divinity OS - same devs who made Divintiy games promised new games. I was disappointed of the results and the way they cave in to SJW fgts, but I had clear reasons why did I do it.

Why would you pledge to KS that promises new Gothic from a dev team that just happened to own PB brand name now?

wat Poker Face

Two reasons, actually. "HD" Gothic 1 and 2. That was what I understand from lolo's last post?
And fuck no I wouldn't throw a penny in a possible PB's kickstarter for gothic 5 or whatever Laughing

"Piranha Bytes" is up there with "Infinity Ward" and "Starbreeze" after all.

Oh, the HD one?
Yeah, that would be nifty.

This reminds me to check on that DX11 mod for G2.

Re-release of Gothic 1-2 would still blow some minds methinks. Game was and still is FANTASTIC. They can even add a casual mode for battles for cattle, for all I care.

I suppose if they made a game like Gothic I&II or even Risen I, they'd get a shitload of money on KS. But they are just too stupid to realise what every fucking Gothic fan in the world wants them to do. Instead they like to invent new ways of crapping all over their own work every damn time. These guys just dont want to make a good game. As stupid as it sounds, thats what I'm convinced of.

If it will be optional mode like with RE0 remake (optional controls) - who cares? You still can play original. Cattle can play "one button kill" mode.

If that's the price of HD remake - I'm willing to pay it.

I was convinced of that after Risen was released. I accepted G3 as a fluke, but they plowed ahead with the same style, and it's since only gotten worse.

I admit, I kind of liked the first Risen. Combat wasnt too bad as were the first couple of chapters. At least it was more polished than Gothic 3 was, until the final chapters, that is.

First Risen 1 was okay, but they clearly rushed it because were out of funds. Could be better.

Why does everyone hate on Risen 3 so much? it's the closest I've felt to playing another Gothic game. The only problem I had with it was how crazy overpowered you got around the middle of the game, but to be fair that is a thing both Gothics were guilty of if you went melee.

Is it really good? Risen 2 was such a clusterfuck, I didn't even remember there was 3. How buggy is it?

Voice acting is shit, and combat is shit. Stopped playing after 30 minutes. Combating a crab for 2 minutes cause it keeps jumping back every time you try to hit it is just way to stupid.

Let me guess the usual excuse by fanboys, "your character is weak, so what did you expect, this is arr pee gee" Laughing

As i would also expect such a stupid reply, it won't change the fact that enemies keep jumping backwards, the only thing you can hope to achieve by leveling up is killing it faster when you actually get in your hits.

I don't remember having any problems with the crabs. Maybe you didn't try not mashing the attack button mindlessly?

I didnt like the combat in Risen 3 because it was just not what I like as combat. Once you get used to it though it is better then Risen 2 imo. I also thought the islands were quite well made and there was a fair bit of exploration. The game isnt that bad per se. Its just kind of soulless compared to their good games.
