for the german speaking fellows (like me lol) who playing this game (or trying to), i am somewhat blocked in my progress :

the green ? is clearly there, but none of the guards talks to me (the one right next to me doesn't say anything, and the others only one-line stuff.

Mmh, I never paid much attention to the green questionmarks on the map and just explored the world on my own. I don't know what you already did but I recall talking to the guard at the house across the temple telling me to find the "captain" (Hauptmann, naja, eigentlich ne Frau). It could be that a female merchant somewhere left from the house also told me something regarding that quest but I'm not sure. Anyway, the "captain" appeared at the location the screenshot is showing for me, right next to that other guy.
You could maybe try visiting the harbor and then go back but I guess you already did that.

Otherwise, there might be still some problem with the crack in case you are using that release. German developers are kind of famous for tricking the cracker into thinking that the crack is working and then changing the game subtly so it can't be beaten. Well, maybe unlikely but you should try the clone if you haven't already.

yeah , "normally" there is a scripted event. When you come near the "Wachstation" (thats what the green marker actually represents), Hauptmann (frau) Barla comes running and then the story continues. I went to the official forums, and MANY people had this problem and nobody knows why. Speculation go from some clipping error (barla clipping through the ground or spawns underground in the first place) to script errors (no spawing at all) to other reasons, whatever it is, it is a gamestopping bug (its part of the main story line, so if you cant talk to her , you cant progress any further lol.)

only solution i came across so far, is to completly restart the game "and hope for the best" ...

well, wanted to try another char anyway

ok, so i tried a second time (with the 0007 repack fixed crack both times) and no Barla ... started a new game using the mini image ... and she is there ... wonder if thats some some hidden check or something. anyway, get mini image from you know where and test

http://img518.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ds003gp3.jpg


and when i uploaded the image i apparently won around 2000$ lol ... will keep you updated on that one (still have doubts, but went to many anti fraud sites, and it looks like the win is legit).


add: aahh "up to 2000 $" ended up with a 50$ for my next voyage or whatever

Just killed that dragon. Damn that was hard. Had to pause after each round to kill him finding a balance of using all my skills. This game is aaaaaaaaaawesome! First i was a bit pissed about the dice system like 5 failures trying to drink some tea or opening a chest but later with smart skilled chars its not an issue any more. Cant stop playing.

This may sound a bit political or patriotic but i am really happy to see german devs rule again! The texts and dialogues are the best ive seen for a long time, same with quests, most of them are very entertaining, at a higher rate and level than Gothic or Oblivion.

I think this is the reason why no english release is announced. See Witcher. Killed by moneymaker publishers with poor translations. Witcher in original polish is a totally different gaming experience. Same would happen to Drakensang because of its very complex background. Alone the names of the NPCs would be hard to translate, because they tell you something about that character. Its not as easy as translating Schumacher into Shoemaker. Same with Items and Spells.

Another point to mention: No bugs. Here and there some small things but nothing that pulls you out of gameplay and atmosphere.

Drakensang can be named in a row with Mass Effect and Witcher. On first place if someone would ask me, but you cant compare it with open world RPGs like Oblivion or Gothic. Thats another league.

If you ever wanted to learn german, now you have a reason Smile

Now back into the game, trying to be a lawyer for that big boobed chick from page two, now in jail ... young dwarfs dudes could clear but wont tell anything coz she was illegally dancing....

Ok, I have some news, I would have posted earlier but it got shunted to my junk mail folder:

EIDOS is handling the UK distribution of the english-version game and DTP is answerable for localisation.
The game has a scheduled release date for the first quarter 2009.


From the english forums.

another real german RPG Crap game... its too boring.

Gothic III was the biggest shit ever. I've deleted it after 5 mins. This is not so buggy, but the gamplay is really too slow.

Don't expect too much of all games, if you do that it will disappoint you.

Sorry 4 fanboys.

It's a so called traditional RPG with a lot of dialogue and stuff instead of just tons of combat which is more common with these action/rpg hybrids like Oblivion, Gothic 3 and Two Worlds ofcourse games can both be deep RPG's can have a lot of combat as seen by Witcher and Morrowind.

Nice to see a estimated release date for the english version, hopefully it won't be badly translated and "dubbed" but we'll see when it's out. Smile

2009? Well, that's a long time...
Theoretically someone could make fan-subs since all the dialouge seems to be stored in SQLite format. This would probably exclude items and maybe item-descriptions and quest-headlines but I guess it would be playable.

It was shit but the other 2 games are two of the best RPG's ever created. In the third they tried to make it much more commercial and noob-friendly + they spent far too much time with that engine, and they had a really hard time with it (at least thats what the dev team said), and then it all went to shit, well the reviews (at least the ones ive read) were good, so maybe it sold better the other 2 even though it was crap...

Iam currently at some very bad part of the game. One hole day i run though a dungeon with always the same enemies just to search parts for a mechanic that opens another dungeon and that repeats 5 times now. Iam at a point nearly to stop playing coz its simply boring. At least my "cannot stop playing" feeling is totally gone atm. I also forget why iam there... Was it a magic helmet? Rats? Or beer?

I guess i am at a part of the game where the devs agenda said "holiday"...

And now its weekend. After all that beer I guess i have to restart to figure out what this game is about Wink

This is easily one of the best RPGs i ever played.
It has about all you need. A huge amount of classes and nice talent and special-talent system along with the possibility to raise your key-values.

Store is great and has a quite huge amount of time you can waste on it.
The side quests are also quite nice its not allways like "Go there and kill everything"


@ FastMemFirst:
Up to the point i played there are about two points you might describe.
The introduction of that quest-part and the hole experience in that part of the land isnt even close to the rest + its the only part so far with the mechanics.

Use daemon tools and the mini image. These days its better to emulate that copy protection shit instead of using cracks.

Patch 1.01 out, unsure about some of the things it fixes but I understand a bit of German, hopefully the mini-image still works. Smile

EDIT: Mini-image works just fine, mount and play.
(Latest Daemon Tools Pro, V-IDE.)

The files seems to be in a SQL format so technically one could extract them and then translate them via a auto-translation program or even Google but it would take time and ofcourse the translation would be far from perfect.

A proper translation is also a option but it'd require a dedicated team very skilled in the German and English languages and by the time that's finished the real English version is probably out. (Early 2009 based on a earlier post in this thread, hopefully it'll be a good translation unlike for example Witcher and Stalker.)
