To become death in Venetica is a calling, fulfilled by a man of flesh and blood – equipped with special supernatural skills in order to be able to carry out the duties of the office. A new death is selected regularly by “Corpus”, a secret council. This time however Corpus really makes a wrong decision: The “new” death, Victor, turns out to be a crazed necromancer who manages to turn himself into an overpowering undead with seedy tricks and dark rituals and thus attains almost unlimited power in addition to immortality. As it is strictly forbidden for the chosen death to devote himself to necromancy, the committee revokes Victor’s nomination immediately and declares a new death in his stead without delay.
The power-hungry Victor however does not want to relinquish his position again. He continues to practice the dark arts in order to gather numerous dark and dangerous creatures and tainted souls from the underworld around him. He thus succeeds in eliminating the newly designated death and takes over his power for his own purposes. The effects on the world’s balance are calamitous and – should Victor be able to keep himself in power – its dark consequences are irreversible. Only a person who has the same mighty powers as Victor can prevent his prevailing and vent him his deserved punishment.
Scarlett, the daughter of the real death does not know anything about her ancestry and the hidden talents which slumber within her. She is immersed suddenly in this story due to the brutal attack on her home village and the tragic loss of Benedict, the love of her life. It is a story which she now begins to write herself, a story during the course of which she unleashes her capabilities, a story in which she tries to save Benedict from the world of the dead and a story in which she must protect the world of the living from the dark threat posed by Victor and his henchmen.

Dlaczego warto kupować na GOG.COM?
BEZ DRM. Aktywacja ani połączenie internetowe nie są wymagane do gry.
Venetica has aged well, its worldbuilding is excellent, good level design and relatable characters. Three different guilds to join and a lot of side quests that are actually fun give it good replay value. Combat was fun, the controls work well. One of my favorite games on GOG.
Bought this after reading it was a bit similar to Gothic, which it kind of is. Wasn't disappointed! Yes, there are things that are bit broken. Some quests, moves, skills and/or dialogs feel unfinished or weird, but overall I really liked this game. I'm even replaying it right away. This game, overall, downright shines in some areas and is unpolished, even lacking in others. Still worth a play.
I fell in love with the main character's stare full of revenge. Or is it derermination? The intro attacks the teen gamer's heart by showing the character as weak, innocent and vulnerable, thrown into the rough, corrupted world. And captures it by letting them guide her, building her strength.
Although the characters' clothes look medieval-ish, the protagonist has a very charming, "modern" look, which clashes with the rest. Not that it isn't nice to look at, but still, I kind of wish there was a proper armor, not the usual gaming "bikini" style thing.
Some moves/skills are pretty underwhelming, but there are plenty skill points to have, so you can even take 1 level in everything, to find out which are useful to you.
My favorite build (slight spoilers included):
I went for specializing on the first weapon type, as it had the coolest moves, and is most universal. Its poison skill deals a lot of damage when leveled, and its final skill looks pretty when used. Otherwise the fights might get repetitive, so learn to add some "fun" stuff when you can. I highly recommend getting the "From Venice with Love" skill. Call me immature, but it's pretty hilarious to use and even fits the RP greatly, when you get ambushed. Finally, it's perfect for getting loot from containers.
In mental skill tree, the damage didn't seem strong enough. And most seemed too pricey to use. Max out the healing, the stun skill and take some utility stuff.
Important note: You need to learn the "shield block" skill to finish the game.
If you loved Gothic I and II, you will probably remember it very fondly. Well, if you go play it today you will realize how much time has passed and you'll realize how badly these games habe aged.
Venetica feels quite a bit like you'll _think_ how the original Gothic titles should feel like today - and that's a great thing :-)
I'll keep this short since the other reviews should give you a fair impression on what to expect. I'd recommend it anytime.
Jakoś fanem "Gothica" nigdy nie byłem (i już pewnie nim nie zostanę), ale action RPG-i lubię. I chociaż "Venetica" nie jest arcydziełem to warto się tym tytułem zainteresować.
Na plus:
- naprawdę dobrze zaprojektowany świat, w którym nie brakuje ukrytych komnat, przejść, skarbów i innych rzeczy zachęcających do eksploracji
- o muzyce można mówić tylko dobrze, wpada w ucho i pasuje w sam raz do klimatu
- voice acting w większości wypadków jest naprawdę dobry (m.in. Scarlett, Śmierć)
- sporo zadań pobocznych, a co ważniejsze - nie wszystkie opierają się na schemacie: idź, znajdź, przynieś lub zabij X potworów
- fabuła nie jest wybitna, ale wciąga, a dzięki wyborom wpływa się na zakończenie
- grafika ma swoje momenty (od strony artystycznej)
- kilka typów broni, do tego trochę zaklęć - jest czym walczyć
Na minus:
- zdarzają się błędy jak np. złe oznaczenie celu misji (zamiast wskazywać na dom pokazuje na... środek kanału) lub niemożliwość zabrania broni niezbędnej do pokonania bossa (co w moim przypadku zmusiło mnie do używania kodów)
- grafika niestety się zestarzała - sporo tekstur jest niskiej jakości, postaciom brakuje szczegółowości, a chodząc po mieście często mijamy te same modele
- system walki wymagałby poważnych zmian - wklepywanie tych samych combosów po czasie przestaje być angażujące, nie wszystkie zaklęcia są przydatne, a wybieranie umiejętności z klawiatury numerycznej nie jest zbyt wygodne
Przyczepiłbym się jeszcze do mini gry z otwieraniem zamków (po dwudziestym zamku naprawdę chciałoby się znaleźć jakiś wytrych czy coś), ale to w sumie szczegół. Jeśli tylko przymknie się oko na niedoskonałości i ewentualnie uzbroi się w cierpliwość (a w razie czego też w kody i opis przejścia) to "Venetica" potrafi wciągnąć i zapewnić nawet 30 godzin nieidealnej, ale przyjemnej rozrywki.
Tedious and frustrating gameplay you cannot love it but you cannot hate it either.
Graphics: Starting from graphics quite impressive for a 2009 game however i noticed graphical glitches and some areas didn't properly loaded leading to floating objects dark background and fighting invincible enemies.
Story: Proceeding to story you got your cliche typical RPG story about revenge. Your spouse dies and it's time to go out for your revenge leading to choises that don't really matter because whatever you do the result is the same. Why do i given a choise when there is only one way to finish the quest? it's beyond me.
Combat: Moving on to combat oh boy how can i put this sometimes it's ridiculously easy other times ultra hard for no f****** reason unbalanced even on normal difficulty. Smash the attack button. Sometimes enemies forget to block your attacks other times they remember that when it's too late for them.
Magic: Speaking of which magic is fine in the game maybe the best aspect of the game. You got various spells to choose from and it's fun combined with melee combat. Notice that when you level up you have to find a teacher to buy skills leading to back and forth.
Skills: As far as it concerns skills you got for magic, melee combat, swords, axes, warhammers etc. So i guess it's totally fine no complains here.
Maps and Quests: Prepare to get lost like a lot. The map is fairly long seperated in districts there is no fast travel so you have to go anywhere on foot at least in the beginning and by the way there is no mounts.Moving on to quests it's a mess.Sometimes there is an indicator where to go other times you have to figure this out by yourself wandering around like an idiot searching for the quest item or the quest target gets tedious real fast. And when there is an indicator it sometimes lead you to different location.
Music and Voice Acting: Lack of proper music and in general not good.Voice acting is okay though
Conclusion: Mediocre RPG with many flaws.
This game is waiting for a review. Take the first shot!
