Gothic 2 Gold Edition

last game had terrible contols,,, and to make up for them the sequel fixed some and it is still a pain to play....

Files are broken and not working. No support, do not buy.

I finally gave up on this game. Erratic mouse control within the game. Sometimes it would work to open a door or pick up an item, but most of the time it just wanted to punch everything, included the inanimate objects you wanted to read or pick up. That got old fast. One set up / options, you do not have mouse control. You have to arrow up / arrow down to get to different screen resolution or performance settings. To talk / interact with other characters, you cannot mouse click on the 3 or 4 responses your character is given. That would be too easy. Instead you have to use 0 for top response, 1, for next down response, 2, for next down response and 3 for last possible response to choose. Why? With all the GOOG GOG games in my library, life is too short to deal with these peculiarities. Game may be fun, but I'll never know, because the mechanics of the game were too off-putting. Will be uninstalling.

Access violation errors when trying to change settings, white borders on the top of the screen, no mouse cursor, painful controls. Just an abysmal, broken experience all around. Don't waste your time. This is clearly a dated game with a grossly inflated rating due to the nostalgia factor. Avoid.

How can a game released in 2005 have no mouse support? For me this makes navigation too cumbersome to even play the game. Refunded.
