This game, that came out in november 2002, was absolutely marvelous, lush environment, vast world, everything in this game is briliant, granted, it's over 20 years old, bu it is still a fantastic game, the world, the characters, the side-quests, the main story, it's just perfect, I keep replay the game because there are very few games nowadays that encapsulate this feeling you have when you play, the world is unforgiven, at first, you don't stand a chance anywhere, without some kind of help, on way or another, you quickly learn that this world it's not centered arround the player, it is centered arround itself, it can and exists without the player as well, you don't have the waypoint, you have to buy a map, to navigate, the Lore is absolutely flawless, and the fact that you get to choos one of 3 factions to join, which this is one of the traits that made Gothic great, night and day cycle, and I could go on for ours about this game, this game is the corner stone and the reason for the other great RPGs that we now have.
