There is content after the end and still stuff to explore which will probably add another 10h. Final verdict: It's not Gothic 3. Everything feels small and short despite a world that is about as big as Gothic 3 by sheer size. Along with the usual issues in PB games you get a handful of stuff that are weird omissions that were present in Gothic. Overall it's a clear step back from Gothic 3 and about on the level of Gothic 2. They should've taken another year on this to make something out of this waste of potential. And so the wait begins for the next game if they don't shut down after this. |
Well, that kinda sucks - though I personally think that Gothic 2 is better game then Gothic 3 (with 1st being the best).
Honestly, they always lack resources and I'm really wondering why don't they just do remake/reimaging of Gothics - outside of us PC folks, nobody played them and given they are (along with TES) grandaddies of modern open-world action RPGs, which are quite popular, they would get additional funds for making proper Gothic 4.
