STORY
Kingdom of Myrtana, a country whose foundations crumble under the winds of war and unrest raging throughout its lands. Experience the events that forged the original Gothic storyline and see with your own eyes how the creation of the Valley of Mines impacted people far away from the main continent.
Make your mark in a brutal world where your every decision has a clear impact on its environment and the lives of those you meet on your path.
Play as Marvin, a young man who was driven away from his home by the war looming over the horizon. The reality of the Archolos, a place he runs to, unfortunately proves to be far from his expectations. Rich merchants craving only for more gold, servants of the king Rhobar II who put into practice every new and more restrictive laws and waves of desperate refugees who just like the protagonist search for a decent life. Marvin will have to find a way to survive in this land of treachery, opportunism and opposing interests.
You are not the chosen hero, you are not a villain. You are a survivor.
Will you take everything you want by the force? Or will you try to help others in need?
In The Chronicles of Myrtana you decide your own fate.

I played Gothic 1 & 2 each easily 20 times. This is all i wanted! You have to play it! Didn't had any problems with polisch audio and english subtitles in Feb22, i just clicked install and started the game.
Tip: As soon as you get the fast travel merchant mechanism, use it to travel even to unseen spots. Had a hard time fighting overpowered enemies, because my Gothic Ego said "No you don't use that mechanic, you can walk from location to location". But later i had to learn, that at the locations, there are a lot of this "Young wolf" etc. enemies, so i assume it's wanted to use the mechanic in "early" game and it's just 10gp per travel.
I'm just few hours into the story, but still couldn't resist to re-run some quest to check different results. At this point I'm blown away by the magnitude of this product. This isn't mod it is totally new Gothic II universe game! Technically there is a few minor bugs I encounter, but nothing that spoils the game. I will definitely find somehow time to finish it, and it says a lot as I haven't still finished witcher 3 nor cyberpunk in 2022! My review score is 6/5
this is a great thing, especially if you think about that fact that it was done by people with no prior experience and it's free. the team really outdid itself and surprised the entire gaming world. it is like playing gothic 2 for the first time, but a new story, new character, a whole lot of gameplay imporvements ( food recipes, new weapons, new potions, etc ) and a huge open world ( it's normal to get lost in the archolos city for the first few hours - never had that problem in gothic 2 with khorinis )
can we make this a thing? every 2 years a new mod comes out for gothic 2 that just adds to the original story? i would only play these and i would be happy
This just blew my mind when I first played it and it really captures the feeling and atmosphere of Gothic 1 and 2 perfectly in my opinion! I would recommend it to all fans of the Gothic series and of immersive RPGS:s in general.
Just like old Gothic II, but bigger, better. 60-100 hours of gameplay. Great quests, difficult choices, expect regret and somehow bittersweet ending. Story is somehow personal, tragic, but good.
