Good game in its own right
If you would want to be completely unbiased: Gothic 3 still has so many flaws that keep it from being perfect that it could only really get 4 stars. However I will, as always, give the fifth one for what I believe it can gain if someone really takes a personal liking to the game and sees how ahead of it's time the game actual was - and partly still is. I can't even describe how well designed the core mechanics to realize a virtual world actually are. Sure, they have aged a lot, never were too in-depth. But in the context of what you can do, how npcs behave and react in all their details - and how you can affect them and the world is actually quite well done even for todays standards. The game itself is... I think calling it a singleplayer mmo does fit a lot. You can explore, collect, quest, talk, fight very, very much - all to get that sweet progress and reward. It is pretty run-of-the-mill, but the world building and npc dialogues still make it charming and enjoyable. But of course that is a point that is quite a matter of taste. In the same vein a lot of the feature could be praised for existing in a well-served fashion, albeit being used fairly surface-level. There are also some things you may enjoy for what they are, but all in all will objectively be rather "meh" - like the battle system. Now, I guess every review has to mention how, yes, the game was a disaster back in 2006 (still somehow played through it), but has been patched to be a proper game with some neat qol even. If there are still bugs or more content you want, you can google for that, as well. Still, the game will always feel a bit rushed or unfinished at parts, the latter mostly in terms of scrapped locations - it can be improved as mentioned above, but you may always notice it at some points. That being said, I can't really praise enough how the game still manages to perform so good with what there is. Albeit being a bit aged by now, you certainly can have a lot of fun with it, still.
