Hand-crafted world
An excellent RPG in an incredibly detailed, hand-crafted world that feels alive and impacted by your presence. Every plant and flower was seemily placed by a designer, meaning that each step off the beaten path is rewarded by some kind of reward or prize. Enemies generally remain dead because you've killed them and there's no natural reason for them to respawn. NPCs have personality, go about their daily business, like patrolling or sleeping. Difficult enemies are difficult until you have the stats and skills to beat them. This sucessor to the Gothic series (minus the Arcania mess) takes the idea of a living world to the next level, which would later be emulated by so many other game studios, but still remains one of the greats. The game is, nonetheless, dated. The combat isn't the best. The AI stinks. There are a handful or large choices, like which of the three factions to join, but no Larian Studios type interactions. It's an old game. But it's a groundwork game, like it's grandfather, Gothic, that should be better regarded than it is. I tend to think of Gothic, Gothic 2, Gothic 3, and Risen 1 (Risen 2, Risen 3, Elex, and Elex 2 get close) as some of the best games ever made, not because of gameplay or story, but because the worlds are just such joys to be in and explore. It's well worth your time to check this game out if you like open-world RPGs, if only to see where some of the best ideas came from. 4/5 Stars - Combat could have been better - even for the time.
