Could have been so much more

I never played this before the Community Patch, so it must have been a mess when it came out. The graphics are nice, the world is big, there is freedom to roam and lots to explore... The biggest flaw of the game is the story. It is not particularily bad, just...meh. There is far too little going on for a world this big. The fantastic characters of the past two games are also not present here. Even known characters from the last two games are lifeless and generic here. Also, inconsistent and illogical. Whoever thought up the idea that the Water Mages should be nomadic Desert People should have their head examined. The modern mouse control is maybe more modern, but the combat system is far more simplistic now. In Gothic one and two, your combat control skills actually mattered. Here, its just your characters attributes, and a clickfest. Quests are also very generic. I spent hours ridding the Northern lands of Orc armies. Litereally hundreds of orcs in several camps. When talking to the questgiving barbarian chieftain afterwards, he said something like: "Hey, thanks mate" and gave me an armor and some gold. Epic!

Doesn't live up to the great name

All in all Gothic 3 isn't a bad game. It is actually quite enjoyable, once all patches (including the inofficial community patch) are installed. But it just isn't as great as its predecessors and it feels unfinished, even with most of the bugs removed. Too much emptiness, some NPCs seem too generic. One keeps running into situations where one has the impression: "Ah, here the designers had a nice idea - and then ran out of time and didn't implement it fully." Summary: lots of potential wasted. If you're a hardcore Gothic fan ... you probably already have this. But if you are new to Gothic, rather start with 1 and 2. Their graphics may be worse, but they still are far superior games.

gothic 3

This game could have been a great game but as other reviews have said , game is buggy even when patched lost count the number of times when the game froze and as for the story how many orcs do i have to kill, lost count must have been 300 hundred plus and the ending is a let down, so only 3 stars the best gothic game is gothic 2 by far.

Finally able to play through it!

I added only 2 mods, the update of the community patch (Update Pack 1.04) & the parallel universe patch (v1.0.5). Thanks to GOG & the Community for making this possible! Back in the day I bought the CE edition of this game only to realize that it was unplayable. I tried again later with an early version of the CP but the game still crashed all 1-3 hours (sometimes more). I also started to free all the cities right from the start so at some point all orcs that saw me attacked, what made the game again unplayable for me. Now I was finally able to finish it and while it is still the weakest game from the original trilogy I still liked seeing all the locations & talking to all the chars. As already mentioned by others Gothic 1 & 2 are better. Gothic 1 gets a remake soon, which will hopefully be good... Gothic 2 looks amazing with the Gold Remaster mod. G3 still looks nice to me with the patches & mods, but if one is not a fan of the world & chars then there are probably better RPGs to play out there. I enjoyed playing it though.

Oddly satisfying & with lots of issues

This review is for the version 1.75 without any additional content, no alternative balance. Gothic 3 is at the same time fun and frustrating to play. There are two viable builds: warrior and mage; other playstyles (ranged, stealth) should only be considered as side activities. Gothic 3 partly consists of grinding for exp and gold (quests, killing mobs, freeing cities) and the part where you do stuff for fun that will never repay the gold/exp investment. Bows in Gothic 3 are terrible: drawing takes a lot of time, there is no support for aiming, damage is laughable. The best bow I've found (115 dmg) with all perks learned can't one-shot a goblin or a wolf unless you aim for the head. The game has lots of small issues which add up: the way enemies block is annoying, animal attack animations and hitboxes, generic quests, generic loot, shallow characters, occasional bugs and the fact that there is no good map for Nordmar. In fact Nordmar is also dull visually: it's just snow everywhere in a way that is almost unrealistic. There's a similar problem with Varant: sand and more sand; there is a nice buffer area between Varant and Myrtana and the habitable desert regions should resemble it in some extent. The music is good and settlements vary in flavor. There is a lot of memorable dialogue lines despite the overall genericity of the narrative. Also I like that the game tells you what's it's all about right off the bat: you arrive at Ardea, kill all Orcs and loot all houses; that's what Gothic 3 is ultimately about.
