The Pleasure Is Worth The Pain

Since the game comes with the community patch already included, a lot of the nasty bugs have been worked out. The game offers a sizeable land to expore, plenty of skills to learn and some interesting quests (starting a rebellion and killing off the orc opressors of a city, for example). Where it becomes annoying is its level up system. To increase your character's skills (as well as HP and MP), you have to pay gold in addition to the learning points you've earned. Early in the game, it can become painful to have to decide between that new armor or increasing your skills. The game can also be quite difficult before your character becomes well developed. Despite the previously mentioned issues, the game is a rich and rewarding experience overall. If you're an RPG fan and looking for a lesser-known gem, give this a shot.

Beyond words

With the community patch you get a really big world, with treasure and secrets around every corner. It never gets boring. Best of all: There is a map, but with no markers where to find your target. If someone tells you the person you are trying to find is about 5 miles north-east near a tower, then you have to get your compass out and find it on your own. Awesome! I played Skyrim before this, and Gothic 3 is much more immersive. And for me clearly the better role-playing game. If you like being taken by the hand to find everything you need, play Skyrim. If you want to be completely on your own, play Gothic.

Not as bad as G1&2 fanboys show it to be

Yes, it it worse than 1&2. Yes, it has no heart or direction. But 1 out of 5 stars is pushing it to trolling limits. Fanboys drooling over G1&2 and dissing everything after them (G3, Forsaken Gods, ArcaniA, Risen 1,2,3) by giving them 1 out of 5 stars, is just plain trolling. From the beautiful vistas, to re-spawning enemies and from playable skills to the weapons and armors, G3 corrects many things G1&2 did wrong at the expense of lore, atmosphere and maybe continuation. Whereas G1&2 felt empty after you slaughter everything, G3 is a living breathing world. Whereas G1&2 had a single foresty-germanic environment, G3 has 4 biomes from deserts to snowy mountains. Whereas G1&2 needs 3 playthroughs to experience the 3 classes (mercenary, fighter, mage), G3 goes to implement all 3 classes so you can multirole. Completely playable with the Community Patch, runs smoothly at 1080p at max settings and seeing Myrtana for the first time is exhilarating. Open-endness and scale is on par with Two Worlds games, albeit more detailed.
