Really enjoyable!
I really enjoyed playing this game. I had already played GK3 years ago but i couldn't get on with the 3D gameplay. Even if you don't normally play FMV games give this one a go. The characters are likeable and the storyline is interesting if you like history.

Flawless
This was my first time playing it and I loved it! The story was great, setting charming, puzzles logical. Acting was well beyond my expectations (even if sometimes it comes close to language lesson levels). Why only 4 stars? GoG version likes to crash and it can be very frustrating when one forgot to save because got sucked into the story.

Really ?? Wtf happened to GK ?
This game is terrible. It's so poor compared to the first one, you'll wonder if they're part of the same series. Voice acting is terrible and the recording seems to have different tones for some reason. The FMV haven't age well at all, they're a mess. The UI looks like it has been done in 2 minutes in MS Paint. I don't get it, how could this game be so low standard after the first one which was one of the best adventure game i've ever played ? I'm guessing they just used all their budget on filming and actors instead of having a real developing team... If you liked GK1, don't play this one, it's a poor mess. If you like FMV...well go ahead, you might like it.

A new personal favorite
Coming off of Sins of the Fathers I was apprehensive about the switch to FMV and the replacement of Tim Curry with Dean Erickson as Gabriel Knight. To my surprise, I was won over on both accounts. The switch to FMV allowed for a better connection to the historical elements, exploring real locations and interacting with real people added a believable quality. Incomparable to anything I've played before. The expanded role of Gabriel's assistant Grace from the previous game was a welcome addition. Having the chance to play as her and diving into all the historical lore of the story was a real treat. This game will definitely make you want to visit Germany at some point in your life. The handling of the werewolf material here is well done. The philosophy established for it goes far above what is normally expected from the topic in the world of video games, and allows for The Beast Within to easily secure its place as the best werewolf video games out there.

Gabriel Knight! Wolves! And a Curse?
GK2 represents what I felt was the hardest of the trilogy! Each game changed how it was done - and this one introduces FMV - and stars Dean Erickson as Gabriel Knight, who I thought did an astonishing job! There's so much to see and so much to do - in GK2 - it can become easy to lose track of what needs to be done next! But because of the scenery and the things that you do - once you do them - the progress of the game and the story that unfolds is pretty amazing.
