Gothic

This was one of the first truly great Action RPGs I recall playing on the PC back when it came out. I had played Elder Scrolls games and while those were fun, to me the Gothic series was a superior game and series. The first and second in particular. The first game had such an interesting setting and, at the time, a pretty unique "hero" situation and a very fun world to run freely around with interesting spells to play with (turning into a maggot to sneak through things, hah) with fun monsters to fight and other great things to do. There was no real "right and wrong" just sides you could choose and the freedom to do virtually anything in the game. A lot of your choices effected how people felt about you and even going so far as to helping someone in a fight or not could go a long way. The combat system was also very interesting in that it wasn't a simple click to swing weapon like others where you'd just kinda run up and melee and try to move around to avoid being hit. No, you could actually control in which way your sword swung. While it was awkward to get used to, once you do, you'll find it enjoyable too I believe. While Gothic 2 is the best of the bunch, I'd recommend picking up Gothic 1 because it still holds up to being a really fun RPG with quite a bit of replayability to see what to do for different factions or try a different type of build for your character.

Just installed it today and it works fine !

Ever looked for an equivalent to Elder Scrolls: Daggerfall? Your search has ended. This is one amazing game full of life and so much rich detail it will blow your mind. There are 3 sides to choose from in this prison wasteland, The Old Camp, The New Camp, and the Brotherhood. Choices are tough and living is even harder because in this terrible place you face the greatest villian of all...........man.

Personally I enjoyed the Gothic-series more than the Elder Scrolls. I know, the latter are bigger and more polished (ahem!), but Gothic feels better (even though the controls are clumsy and unusual at the least). Okay, so don't compare Gothic 1 with Oblivion, but still I feel the Gothic series deserve more credit than they're given. In the Elder Scrolls it's easy to get side tracked so much you forget about the main quest. In Gothic there are many side-quests, it isn't linear and doesn't feel like it is, and yet, you're always inside the main story. The characters are more human en recognizable than the ones in the Elder Scrolls. So yeah, I loved the Elder Scrolls, but I sleep with Gothic... ;-)
