2nd playthru and it's just as fun as before. Not quite as fun as Trails in the Sky but definately a great story.
I am always happy when a game is anything like Gothic. As a player of all the Gothic series, I loved this game and it was very similar to the Gothic games. You can compare this to Gothic and call it lousy, or you can compare it to the new games of today and call it awesome. I call it awesome and continue to wait for the Gothic I remake that has been due to come out for over 5 years.
This game was fun for a few hours, but it turned out to be a strategy, management game rather than an adventure RPG that I was expecting it to be. I prefer to do all the work with my character, but you need to hire people to do the work. That is not the type of game I am into. Perhaps it is fun for people who enjoy delegating work in a game, but I prefer to play the game myself. I did enjoy the bow hunting for a while, but that's pretty much the only combat that was worthwhile.
I was excited about playing this game based on the high reviews. When I started playing, it turns out the game doesn't seem to work on PC at all...I tried to look up the keyboard/mouse commands but couldn't find anything. Sadly, had to just not play this. Not recommended for PC.
