About
Return to the Valley of the Mines in this faithful remake of the genre-defining open world RPG. Explore a hand-crafted, organic open world that reacts dynamically to your actions. Whether you're a seasoned Gothic veteran or this is your first time being thrown into the colony, you're in for a true RPG experience with unrestricted exploration like no other.
The Kingdom of Myrtana has been invaded by a relentless horde of orcs. Desperate for powerful weapons to repel them, King Rhobar II orders the mining of vast quantities of magical ore, setting every available prisoner to work in the Khorinis mines. To ensure no one escapes, the King commands his most skilled mages to erect a magical barrier. But something goes terribly wrong, and the magic spirals out of control, trapping everyone inside. The prisoners rebel, transforming the mine into a lawless territory ruled by the Colony’s most brutal inmates.
Now, the King must negotiate with these new rulers, as tensions rise among the mine's factions. Amidst the chaos, the arrival of an unknown prisoner will change everything …

As a kid, I fell in love with the original. Now, I get to fall in love again, but with the remake. Well done and recommending!!
Пример игры, в которой почти каждый элемент плох или не работает корректно, потому что игра невероятно кривая (на момент текущего патча) и крайне устарела во многих своих механиках, где напрочь отсутствует баланс, но по какой то не ясно причине, эта игра доставляет удовольствие. Прошел залпом, жду ремейк 2 готики. Тем не менее, не рекомендую играть, до выхода финального патча и кучи модов, что все поправят)
I liked it
Pretty game, phenomenal premise and story. I love games that take the roleplaying seriously and add in human interactions with NPCs. People will just mug you and ask for bribes; you're not treated like the main character at all. It's peak. And the defeat mechanic is AWESOME. BUT Half of the other mechanics are the most annoying thing in the world. The fun cooking at the start deceives you. The lockpicking is solvable by assigning the tumblers to "the row vectors of a sparse matrix" and one guy calculated a lock as having FIFTY-SEVEN steps to solve. But don't worry, all locks are always pickable, even though SOME CANNOT BE SOLVED WITHOUT INCREASING YOUR SKILL. Why let me pick the lock, then???? Coming into the game having not played the original, but enjoying games of similar ages, like Morrowind, I was expecting to have to find my own way, but this game doesn't even reward exploration early on. As a player with no background in the Gothic series, do you want to get weapons? Good luck. It'll drain you of all your ore and give you maybe +2 damage. Wanna get armor? Couldn't begin to tell you how to, even after FIVE HOURS of interacting with the world. The combat isn't even GIT GUD. The controls are simple enough to give you a low skill floor, and a low ceiling, but the enemies are just stat-checks, I've only been able to use a bow, a club, and a sword the whole time. The damage output of every enemy when you don't have armor is also nuts. On the standard difficulty you can get bodied by anything in two hits, one hit if it isn't the starting area. Don't grind through the fights like I did, though. There is NOTHING to loot anywhere that gives you a practical advancement in skill or equipment. It gives you meat and other ♥♥♥♥-tier weapons to sell off and scrape together enough ore to buy....nothing, really. Fantastic universe, awesome story, great factions, horrible gameplay to carry you through it.
Es ist nicht möglich die Höchsten Stufen der Magie zu lernen wenn man dem Sumpflager beitritt. Das erfährt man aber erst mittendrin weshalb mein Magier build komplett im a ist. Nicht cool jetzt weder hohe Magie noch hohe Kampskills haben zu können. Was denkt man sich bei sowas?
топовая игра я кайфую играя в нее))
Сам не верю в то, что говорю, но ремейк-то лучше оригинала... Разработчики умницы - жму лапу. Издателю и нашим актерам озвучки спасибо за качественную локализацию. Очень надеюсь на ремейк второй части с ДЛС и жду его. Алкимия интерактив, у вас получится!
Juegazo esperamos el gothic 2 remake
Назвать местный взлом замков «душнейший ад говна» - это его похвалить. 25 лет тому назад взлом в оригинале меня, тогда ещё десятилетнего 3.14здюка, не так душил, как это не-пойми-что. Самое странное кроется в его «балансе». Вот я с перком 1го уровня («обучен») взламываю сундук 4й сложности за 30 секунд, а следующий сундук 3й сложности не удается вскрыть за час с хреном из-за его всратого и абсолютно контр-интуитивного паттерна.
Played the original 3 when they released. This nails the same oppressive atmosphere and unforgiving combat. No hand holding just the same brutal world. If you enjoyed the originals this is worth picking up. Hoping for Gothic 2 remake.
