Unlike Fallout 2 which never got a proper sequel, Gothic 2 has a real and great prequel to everything that happened in the series. Actually the addon to Gothic 2 should be technical/balance only and the real addon, if not a separate game which it actually is, should be the Archolos. Not only it introduces a great new location and awesome story, but also new mechanics and improved things that were annoying in the previous instances. It's a shame we never got it around time the games were released, but I'm happy now that I can again dwelve into one of the best experiences of my childhood and apparently it's not only nostalgia at work. I really do have a lot of fun even playing the original Gothic (the really bad controls don't bother me at all) and it's still the same with Archolos. 40+h of story, full Polish dubbing with only the greatest voice actors, thousands of lines of dialogues and everything else - it's a shame only we in Poland are able to experience this title at its finest, but nevertheless non-Polish speakers have to check it out too.
