Here we go again.

Any other games like this where joining a faction is very important to the whole game? I especially liked that joining the inquisition or whatever in Risen was the result of a combat loss.

I heard rhe performance is shit
How do you join the water mages after gomez murders all the fire mages?
Check out this EPIC elden ring reference!!!
>>740713482I'm going to find out in a few minutes, but yeah, it does seem shitty
>>740713547But Gomez did not murder the fire mages
>>740713464reloading a save resets the ore nodes btw
just a reminder
>mom said is my time to play
>>740713667We don't have sexy women IN GERMANY
>>740713547In the original game you had to talk to your friends around the Old Camp first and then you got the option for joining in the New Camp. You didn't have to do much more than that with the Old Camp anymore. Going inside to kill them all was fully optional.I haven't played the remake yet though.
Stannis, STANNIS
>>740713458I think may Elex? I haven't played it yet, but I remember some discussions involving joining factions
>>740714015Obviously I mean non-PB games but I appreciate it anyway fren
>>740713547First you need to have joined the Mercs and once you talk to Saturas the option appears, not sure if immediately or after you bring the Foki
>>740714082Well, then, maybe try Kenshi, but the game is pure autism
no waifus = good gamesimple as
>>740714819is that the underground of 'snapper fortress'?if yes then I killed that beast few hours ago
Bros, surely Todd is taking notes, right? I mean he has to. Enough with the power wankery. The gamer yearns for early hobo good-for-nothing useless skilless path that dies to rats phase
It's cool that they included the old basic climbing mechanic, even though it can often be janky. There are some easter eggs up in them hills. I might try to lower the volumetric fog density, but otherwise enjoying the visuals.

Why are you spamming this shit?
is the steam store dead rn
>>740715457No.
>>740715641its loading incredibly slow for me
>>740715303Wut? I only created this thread and the last one. I'm enjoying the discussion. What do you want me to say?
>>740715689Works fine on my end. Must be the CDN whimpering
>>740715689Steam sometimes loads images extremely slowly for me, I think it's cause my ISP gives out pozzed IP addresses that were previously used for VPNsDo you sometimes get the "we have detected suspicious traffic, please confirm you're real" thing on other websites?
>>740716115nope just on steam
>>740713208>His last word was>COME>and they came>all of them>even the dragons...>Oh shit!>Aaah!>said a man who got roasted by a dragonWelcome to the colony to everybody who gets to experience this wonderful series for the first time!
Let's test this motherfucker
>>740716320The vegans of PC gaming.
>>740716320Uhhh patches??
I'm in ch2 and the templar guy taught me how to harvest minecrawler's but all I harvest are the mandibles, are they the same as the glands that cavalorn wants?
>>740716569no, you'll get the glands as part of the main story. just keep playing.
>>740716543No patches. We are rawdogging this shit.
>>740715286Why are you posting image that has nothing to do with remake?>>740713208Why would you buy this censorslop when original exists and is fully playable? If the devs want more sales they should fix this shit or at least admit they were forced to instead of lying with wip shit. If any of you fags want to reply with appeals to triviality or telling me i should "just watch porn" might as well not bother. You know nothing about world building or rpgs. Yes i would be equaly upset if they changed color schemes of camps or some other bullshit
>>740717254sorry
Fist of Wind OP
>>740717254Because the game is good and I like it.
>>740713564you are retarded
I wouldn't have an issue with lockpicking if it didn't reset everytime a lockpick was broken
>>740717736then level it up fool
>>740717792Does leveling it up stop that from happening?
sex sex sex
>>740717860yes
>>740717891what in gods name is that hotbar placement0 character shadowsblurry dof view
how would YOU do the lockpikcing then wiseguy?
>>740718220Id make it same as in g1/2
Anyone got pics of the faction armors fully upgraded (Heavy Warder, Heavy Merc etc).I can't find them fucking anywhere, the video on youtube that says "all armors" doesn't even show them. It's pretty much what decides my faction
>>740718347Thorus is wearing fully upgraded warder
How clunky is the combat compared to the atrocious oroginal aka W S spamming
>>740715286I'm a boomer who never played the originals and I deleted it after 30 mins because of micro stuttering when panning the camera, I can't stand that shit when it's 'running' at 90fps+
>>740718504yeah, UE5 sucks like thatits manageable for me but I was this close to doing the very same
>>740717483Good, it was OP in the original too.
>>740718504that bad?
>>740716320So far so good.Settings:No upscalerQuality preset: CustomShadow quality: Medium.Shading quality: Medium.Everything else on HIGH.Resolution: 1600x900. (I'm on a 2K monitor). Frame limit: 60 FPS.
how the fuck are you supposed to kill the minecrawler queen without cheesing it? I used a ball lightning scroll and then threw like 50 fireballs at it, seems impossible if you're melee.
>>740717891>>740718347looks like garbage
>>740718487That settles it.Also how fucking long is this game. I have 10 hours still in act 1. First time to the series and only just got the hang of it but does the game speed up (not even complaining, it's kino)
how viable is DEX faggot path in the repuke?
>>740718749>Frame limit: 60 FPS.
>>740718749I forgot my build:>5700X>RX 9060 XT 16G>32GBInstalled on a NVMe
>>740713763post the AI song, you know the one
>>740718856What's the problem? I've seen people saying that it doesn't work. I'm going to try that first.
>>740718846About 40-50 hours
>>740718680Yeah, I was looking forward to it too. I get the same issue with most team ninja games too for some weird reason.
>>740718974dangi know i can play ue5 games okay besides stalker 2 which on my 5080 7800x3d still runs like dogshit
>>740718847I'm in chapter 3 doing bow only, it feels good to use
Which early skills should I prioritize?
is it fun or is it a slog
>>740718220I always found visualizing lockpicking minigames to be odd outisde of Gothic. You literally don't see what you're doing, you're just guessing that what you're doing had some kind of impact. The way Gothic handled it by going left and right was genius in some ways, but obviously stupid in others.I might do it as a balancing minigame where you have to move a cursors around between a two lines that never cross each other to simulate how you're moving blindly. Then it makes a clicking loudly every once in a while to indicate progress.
>>740713564What the actual fuck is that tower supposed to be? I hate when games have shit aesthetics, and even more when their aesthetic has no cohesiveness that make the world meld on all levels.Not going to say the game is bad, it's probably good. I never played Gothic 1-2-3, I was too busy playing Warcraft 3 during that era. So I probably "don't get it", and I'll accept that. That tower just pisses me off...it's so stupid looking
>>740715303pretend jannythe lowest form of life on Earth HAHA
>>740718504>>740718974you can play without frame generation bullshit it runs a lot better
One questionIs in extremo still in?This is fucking important
>>740718220i'd level it up at least one rank, then try to understand how it works, the relationship between the plates. basically not be a pants on head retard.
>>740718749>>740718863JFC it's raping my CPU
>>740719910Yes, they are.
>>740719413learn the first level of 1h combat and put some points in strength, melee damage is calculated via (strength + weapon damage) - enemy armor, so getting some decent strength early on helps a lot with combatgetting at least 1 stage in 1h combat so your fighting animations don't suck and to be able to do basic combos
found 2 halves of a key in some orc temple / burial groundscan't fix it in swamp forge and neither can the blacksmithdo I have to join weed gang to receive quest for this shit?
>dudeweed lmao is the most efficient and cheap way to restore your manawhat did they mean by this?
>>740713458Mount and Blade Bannerlord
>>740714148I just wish the water mages would stop attacking me cause of this stupid fucking bug.
>if you pick up the druid book from the wreck before doing the mercenary initiation quest, the dialogue with Myxir is completely different and he senses the vibrations coming from you the whole timethat's a nice detail
>>740719119The funny thing is it's the exact same story with stalker 2 lol. I never played the previous ones properly and 2 ran like shit, but it seems like it's poorly optimized in general. I hate most modern games and was looking forward to both of those :(
>>740720310Are any of the other more utility-based skills so good that they would be a priority in early game?
>>740720351part of the main quest
Did you guys give Whistler his sword? I wonder if this is a sort of shipping cart litmus test lol
>>740721459I did.Diego was wondering why I didn't take his ore and run.
>>740721427a level in lockpicking, otherwise you're gonna end up hating yourself while picking locks
>>740721459Nah I took his ore and ranDiegeo thought it was funny and gave me goodboy points for joining the camp anyway
>>740721641Based.
>>740720910I hate junkies but I like the image of mage/templar having fireball in one hand and smoking with other hand
>>740714015Yeah, elex and elex 2 (avoid the 2nd one) had that mechanic. They also have the "you are completely useless" mechanic when starting out.I'll get roasted for this but I actually really liked Elex; namely the worldbuilding and lore/story. It was also my first real open world game, so maybe there's some rose tinted glasses there. Had a lot of fun with Risen 3 as well, once I got into it.(I played it once, got annoyed at the controls and Patty's ridiculous tits, and didn't play it for another 3 or 4 years)Also of note is despite the remake not being made by PB, they did a fantastic job at making the game FEEL like classic PB games. Which in anno domini 2026, is a minor miracle (just see all the steam reviews about crybabies unable to figure out lockpicking, or actually exploring without yellow paint and map markers)
>>740721458thanks
>>740721459>>740721641In the original game, getting accepted into Old Camp was based on a hidden point system, determined how well you did in each favor quest.Scamming Whistler out of his ore gave you +2 points, compared to +3 points you get for actually giving him the sword.
>>740721837I know how lockpicking works but I just get filtered by having to actually use brain 200 times like that in one playthroughWell with maxed out lockpicking 60% of chests are fine, 30% are hard and 10% I can't open at all
>>740721459was gonna be before bloodwyn or whatever his name was took all my nugs
This game is probably the ultimate argument against realism in video gamesExtremely low contrast, and it suffers from the same shit every one of these games do, becoming a brick or geology simulator since it's so pointlessly samey-rendered. The world simply has no character at all
Dude, there are several lockpicks that are actually genuinely impossible.>6 plates>2 of them only interact with each other and you can solve instantly>1 interacts with nothing>The other 3 all interact with each other in such a way that there's no method to actually drive all three towards the center at the same timeI even fucking tried bringing it to the solver app, and it can't find a solution. This is insane. And I do have the skill.
>>740722337I have just installed a cheat and if I find chest I can't open this does it for me, so far all of them were possible but so fucking complicated that I can't imagine doing that myself
>Gothic 3 remakeThis one would actually be a massive improvement, and this time they won't have to develop all gameplay mechanics from zero for no fucking reason.
>>740721818>fire mage apprentice caught on photograph moments before comitting magic-based hate crimes against bl*ck goblins in a drug induced rage
>>740722579ehh remake like that wouldn't solve shit other than fixing combat and maybe graphics, everything is wrong with 3 except for music
Post combat, I'm not convinced.
>mages are dude weed lmao>meleefags are drunks as being drunk ups STRwhat dexsissies can do?
>>740713667This has been fixed, keep your shitposts updated, anon
>>740721427acrobatics absolutelyand climbing eventually becomes mandatory, but you can leave that for ch 2
>>740723032It's bad, but it's good
>>740723078who teaches acrobatics?
>>740723223buster in new camp
Allegedly, the Polish dub is getting a fix. Turns out they DID somehow fuck up the sound mixing.
>>740723071shoot bows and pickpocket because that one scales with dex
>>740723032I'm not very far in but so far it has been wait for enemy to attack, dodge that attack + potential followup it has, attack, and then repeat until it's dead.
what is that even supposed to mean
God, it's so good to explore a dangerous world like a fucking bum. Even the plants become scary kek
>>740723259thank you
>>740723032the enemies hit track you so it changes path mid attack even though you dodged its pretty bad nobody playing this for anything but nostalgia factor .
>>740723389https://bloodborne.wiki.fextralife.com/Madman%27s+Knowledge
So, what are the downsides of joining the Swamp Camp? So far, I don't see any.
>>740715457Just buy it on GOG.
>Cor Angar tells me to beat up one of his templars>do so>the rest of the templars aggro, beat me into a coma and rob me blindDID ANYONE TEST THIS FUCKING GAME
>>740723389The Sleeper doesn't like you.
>>740723542wacky things will happen to you when you port your save to second game
>>740723640you're supposed to wait until he talks to you
>start Dark Souls>kill rat>gain 1 humanity>start Gothic>kill dinosaur>gain meat and boltsI'm sorry Gothicbros, I wasn't aware of your game. This is kino
>>740723908he did, then I kicked his ass and got gangraped by 3 templars
>>740723640did you let the guy talk to you or did you attack before he could?worked for me
>>740723956Also behold my strategy to get food: lure dinosaurs and let the guards kill them. They don't seem to mind.
>>740723640honestly each time you have to fight someone in camps just save, there is 50% chance this will happen
>>740723956usually you only get meat (unless you get extra skills) but since you killed it nearby guards or hunters they were already firing on it from their crossbows
>>740724036works bat but you don't gain any exp that way and beasts don't respawn
>>740724074>don't pay protection money>random guy who murdered 12 people wants to have a go>fight goes pretty well, guy's one hit from KO>random *igger runs between you and him, gets nicked by your sword>everyone gasps and decides that you're the worst person ever that needs a gangbangit's infuriating
>>740713208Is smithing worth the LP?
was in some orc catacombs where I found a buncha orc corpses with amulets and 2 half keys that look like they should go into a door but character keeps saying I don't have a key, probably quest locked?
>>740724921>>740720351>>740721458
>>740724659ehhh I don't know, might come in crutch when you are out of nuggies and it unlocks at least one (shitty) side quest but otherwise if you know what you are doing then probably notso far I only found one weapon plan better than I have now but I don't have shit needed to craft so yeah I haven't found use for it yet
>>740723542In hindsight, everyone in the swamp camp either dies, turns into a mindwashed evil slave, or with a very small chance survives with severe headaches or memory loss, and inability to get close to the undead dragon. It takes a lot of suspension of disbelief for the protagonist to get away with zero consequences.But other than that and inability to learn all spell circles (which maybe was fixed in the remake), they are easily the coolest camp if you just want a place to chill instead of being surrounded by dickheads.
>>740725025protagonist was there for maybe few weeks tops and he (maybe) didn't smoke copious amount of weed as I think it was weed that fucked them up
>>740713208I'm non-buynary
>>740724105Oh that makes sense. >>740724216I'm sure there are way more. Also don't they respawn at every new chapter? I read that here.
>>740723075Nope, cope more :) >>740725198
scavenger mount guy always talks about his pet wolf but I've never seen it near his house unless I killed it thinking it was a regular wolf
>thanks to people talking about it I know that Gomez's room has OP armor and thus I should ignore it and not even bother with that gay long ass lock right nowI do wonder if wearing the 10 and 15 defense rings together is better than the 15 and the 50 hp ring
>>740725015>you are out of nuggiesI'm a newcamper - I'll just rob.But from your reply I gather it doesn't give access to unique weapons.
Anyone know how pickpocketing works? Does it still scale with Dex? Because I won’t invest into that this playthrough.
>>740725202>respawn at every new chapterthat would be nice still in ch1 but it's nice to know I can genocide the whole forest and then do it again
>>740725354I'm just in chapter 2 so I didn't see much of the gameI found plans of some warhammer in the castle which might be some other crafting quest related, maybe not
>>740725340Mitigation is generally better because its a flat value.
>>740725202>Also don't they respawn at every new chapter?No, each chapter adds NEW enemies. Dead enemies stay dead and those you kept alive are still there.
unleveled lockpicking is pretty fun now when I've got a surplus of lockpicks but the majority of loot is bullshit compared to the effort needed to unlock the door/chest.
>>740725340I think that armor requires getting key from gomez which idk if you can pickpocket or have to beat him
>>740725469Ok, ty.
>you can just keep holding down the mousebutton to turn into a magic machinegun after casting the firebolt onceand here my retarded ass kept charging singles shots over and over again
After joining the fire mages, having them be slaughtered, then joining the water mages, how do you learn magic circle 6? the head mage won't teach me.
>>740715180gothic is power wankery by like the beginning of chapter 3 unless you build a completely dogshit character lol. i agree though the early game struggle is fun
I don't think I like stuff like potatoes and carrots being in game, they weren't in originalIn original there was only food present they couldn't cultivate themselves (except rice) which made sense if king didn't want to make colony self sufficient via farming>>740726108xardas
plants are now regrowing between chapters
if anon from previous thread is still looking for Sulfur there's a big wooden house ruin nearby the bridge on the path from south gate of old camp to swamp campfound 2 sulfur inside and some nice shit like ring with 4 elemental resistances and max mana +2 potionthe catch is you need at least 2 turn into meatbug scrolls because the door couldn't be open, there's only a hole for meatbug to crawl through, same with some big door and hole in the wall in the cellar
>>740726768that's the secret entry to the campyou can turn to bloodfly to enter the house as well
been really enjoying the game so far but fuck i just got this fucker ur-shack and i feel like i've been doing fetch quests for the last 6 hours goddammit
>>740726768>need sulfur to make meatbug transformation scrolls>need meatbug transformation scrolls to get sulfuraaaAAAAAAAAH
>>740726962just buy them from the water mages
>>740725363Bump
>>740727039there's thorough explanation in Glossaryyes it scales with dex
Hmm, I think I will watch people stream this game while I play some Anno or Tomb Raider =)
>>740726891Do you have fast travel unlocked yet? You are kinda supposed to max that out before you get into all that.
>>740726891ah fuck, do I have to learn animal trophy skills for all that?
>>740726891https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ThiLhHUO62Q
>>740727381uhh idk i can fast travel to the swamps, water mages, and xardas' tower. i also have the scavenger mount. i'm just gonna look up item locations i guess, i've already travelled the whole map 10 times over at this point and really just wanna move on with the main quest>>740727576no clue desu. i did learn them and they have been almost completely worthless so far
>>740725490Oh I see. Thanks.
found some random ass flying demon in a tower that I can talk to but only say that I am leaving
Do things like shadowbeasts and trolls respawn?I need stuff from them but I went exploring and killed a ton of stuff before getting the quest
>>740727906you'll meet him as part of the main quest later dont worry about it
>>740726891that's the most ass part of the game but that's I believe last time they ask you for retarded thing like that, after that it's dungeoning and shit (not counting new orc shit they added)
>>740728280good because i'm trying to kill this great shadowbeast and it's fucking dogshit. i can get its health down to like 10% but he two shots me in the fully upgraded templar armor
>>740728431If you can get it to 10%, you can get it to 0%.
>>740728537it's like spinning a fucking roulette wheel half the time my hammer just clips through the faggots face and does no damage
>>740726891The last half of the game is notoriously ill-planned and repetitive.
>>740727945The stuff you need for ulu mullu respawns I’m pretty sure, besides I don’t know if you can even do damage to a swamp shark until chapter 3, I don’t know if you can get weapons that are effective against them.
>>740726891have they added new quests and shit past chapter 1? game felt barebones past that point
>>740726891Oh and also you can just skip that shit entirely and kill all the orcs if you’re not a pussy. Well actually I shouldn’t say that, in the original game you could and then just fly over the gate, I don’t know if it’s still the same in the remake.
>>740722230How does he take your nugs nayway?I never paid him, paid Jackal or whatever his name is instead because he didn't make it seem like it was a daily deal (and it wasn't).All that happened was:> Some guy tried to fist fight me. I beat him up and then murdered him. Nobody did anything>some guys tricked me by leading me out of the camp, tried jumping me (think 3 of them) but they're weak as fuckThen nothings happeend since. Infact, i'm planning on killing him when I get better armor (die in like 1 hit to him) to see if that does anything.I've realized most of the enforcers in the games early chapters are all paper tigers designed to wheat out the betas who unironically pay taxes in video games. Kinda like Lefty in the new camp
>>740728917Aniki...
>>740728735I killed all of them in ch1 using a 50 damage orc hammer I found in orc territory and like 90 strength, the first one I killed I was way weaker and took forever but with that set up they died fairly fast.
>>740728917the achievements spoil that you learn orcish at some point, so the orc village is probably a proper quest hub now
>>740728917i already killed all the orcs i could and they're pretty easy, i literally can't kill this great shadowbeast for the life of me though he just rapes me immediately and i dunno what to do. i cant find better armor or weapons anywhere this is actually dogshit
BRO FUCK THE SWAMP. This game has given me more unintentionally scary moments than any horror game. Like journeying back from the Swamp when I got escorted there by a guide, weak as shit only to then find out a shitton of the monsters spawned and I had no fucking guide
>>740725198why did they have those outfits in the original game?
>>740728804Yea, they actually added a lot.Think it's around 15+ hours of just new content meant to fix the originals shitty mid/late game
>don't want to join Gomez on his faggy ass throne>reload save because I didn't know where the cut off was>walk to New Camp>sell off the weed>sell off lots of shit>do training>can't talk to Lares>wtf>fight past the guards>he tells me to fuck off>the game autosaved after joining Old Camp>have to reload and walk all the way back and do all that shit againand it's 100% my own fault
>>740729475Because they were sent as sex toys for Gomez, so they were dressed up in deliberately demeaning fetish outfits.
>>740729330I just killed it.I almost killed it pure melee but got too greedy in the end. Fight it inside the cave and do merry go around while chipping at it. Wait for its two hit swipes and then attack with E. Or just bait its tantrum attack.It has bullshit lock on charge that cannot be dodged because of no i frames which is essentially a dice roll when fighting it.If you get tired of it enough, just use fire storm scrolls on it, 3 should take it down. similar tactic. merry go around pillars, you get first hit for freeWhat a bullshit fight on hard difficulty honestly. I killed it and rage quit.If they're going to make the game dark souls lite they should remove bullshit attacks like tundra wolves and shadowbeasts have
Nobody is going to miss a couple dozen misogynistic incels. You don't care? Good. Leave and stop whining. Gaming isnt for you.
>>740729582>>don't want to join Gomez on his faggy ass throneAll I've been thinking is "I want to join this guy so one day I can stab his back and sit on that throne".
Can you ACTUALLY bet on Scatty's fights? I keep asking at different times of day and it seems he never actually lets you.
>>740730119wrong thread RETARD?
>>740730272There is literally a bunch of incels crying about women not being "sexy" right itt
>>740730056aight cool thanks for the tips. i've gotten close by getting off two firestorms and stunlocking him but it's so fucking unreliable. this shit is straight up indefensibly bad lol.
Just watched cutscene in swamp camp with the focus stone thinger and immediately afterwards it says I failed 2 quests related to cor kalom and swamp weed but I never got those quests? I looked it up and seems I have to join the swamp camp to get them but I was new camp so wonder why they popped up as failed if you can't even get them without the right faction.
>>740729582to be honest the scripting should be alot tighter for a game in 26I feel like there's a singular script trigger for everything and if you miss it for some bullshit reason it punshes you needlessly.
>>740730339no, there is one guy posting the same picture every thread and you, the retard, who tried to concern troll the spammer
>>740730056>>740730448Does it have different moves/animations from regular shadowbeasts? I killed like 3 of them so far and I can hit them pretty easily after baiting any of their 3 big attacks (charge, claw swipes, tantrum) and then just hitting them.
>>740730484>I have to join the swamp camp to get themno, they are admission quests you need to do before you joinbut swamp camp has 5 admission quests and you only need to finish 4 to join so you can fail one
>>740728918>How does he take your nugs nayway?He does if you lie and say you don't have enough to pay
>Baal Liquor
>>740730659I can only take two hits from it with full health and I am stacking protections. It takes me like 8 attacks to kill it. I am also on hard so.It would be fine if it didn't have those dumb lock on attacks. Also once it knocks you down (which is 50% of the time) you're dead.
>>740730659wayy inflated hp and damage. think i'm actually gonna uninstall this shit
>>740730686I never got quests from him about that, I did these:gaslight the one guruget herbs for herb guruget new recruit for anothercast spell for oneCor Kalom never gave me a quest himself, and it says I failed two, one about a swampweed monopoly and one about delivering herbs to old camp. The one guru I didn't do was the one preaching at the temple.
>>740730339>incelare you a tranny, woman, or faggot progressive?
>>740731112this. if i get hit twice i'm dead and i have fully upgraded armor/combat skills whatever. it just feels broken af
>>740731112I play on hard and I just had to accept that I can't take hits from some enemies and just bait their very simple attacks, the only enemies that gave me hard time are ones that come in groups like goblins/skeletons and wolf type stuff like tundra wolves.
>>740731173those 2 quests are for gang weed members only, if you aren't part of them then don't worry
>>740731291ok I was wondering because why would they just pop up as failed if I could never get them since I didn't join the faction
where is the teleport rune for the old camp?
>>740731420in vanilla it was main quest related and chapter 5
>>740731173>Cor Kalom never gave me a quest himself,It's quest from some baal whose name I forgot.You only deliver harvests from 2 different guys to Cor Kalom in the end.
>>740731272You can't bait half those attacks because your roll animation has to be already winding up when it starts doing them.You cannot react at all, you have to be preloading everything and exploiting its AI.You also cannot put any distance between yourself and it because it's only slightly faster than you when you're spamming roll (which you can fuck up due to the great control scheme)They either have to put i-frames into the game, make hero's attacks faster or remove bullshit attacks that require preloaded dodges.
Well great, these are absoluetly worthless in this game
>>740732153just wait until gothic 2 they'll be useful again
>>740731569I'll have to see when I get there myself but if its just the same as regular shadowbeasts then I can't see myself having an issue. You can also parry beasts in this game now unlike the originals.
>>740732153just port your save to sequel
>>740732242I find parrying pointless. I only get one parry before it knocks me down. And if I start parrying a sequence there's not enough time to do a dodge roll after first parry.
>The sheer fucking amount of times I insert a lockpick combination into the lockpick solver and it says "Goal is unreachable from this combination".Ok, do I absolutely need master lockpicking to actually open all the locks, or is this shit just badly designed?
>>740731420I just looted it from the Sunken Tower of Xardas Had no quest for it or anything. I just went there in Chapter 4
>>740732353dunno which one you use but the one I use works everytime with just the first training in lockpicking as long as I input the correct parameters. I heard that if you get lvl 2 you can actually find chests that are unsolvable due to removing a slider and messing up the logic.
wow, I'm sure this is a good god that loves humans and will set us free from the barrier. surely nothings bad is gonna happen at the orc cemetary.
>>740713482It's censored too don't buy it
>>740732574>judging book by it's coveryou'll BURN heretic!
>>740732574 in some dialogue it says sleeper is as powerful as Beliar. Which is wrong, because it is jut a beast of Beliar. Is that a retcon? Also they said focus stones sprung from ground and disturbed the barrier but in original focus stones were actually what was used to create the barrier.Are these retcons or are characters unreliable narrators?
>>740732574BE NOT AFRAID
>>740732153Hide the coins somewhere near the southern gate to the Old Camp. You'll need them to bail out Gorn in the next game.
>>740732450yeah because quest to go there is in chapter 5
This society under the barrier is not sustainable. There are barely any women there and only ones who can breed them daily are big shots. All humans will die out eventually
>>740732153YOU GOTTA BE FUCKING KIDDING ME
>get rain of fire rune>cast it>game crashes to desktopThat's fair.
Am I best exploring as much as I can once i've reached the old camp or is progressing the story a bit more beneficial to getting myself equipped with more than a rusty sword and some rags?
It keeps me up at night thinking about perma stat potions I might have missed in areas I explored just laying on the ground or something rather than in a chest.
Thoughts about Brotherman being in the game?
>>740733053quests won't really give you gear but will give you experience to get gear yourself
>>740733098it's cringe and will age badlybut whatever creates community engagement i suppose
Managed to nick three fuckhueg axes from orcs by luring them into some guards. Going to sell them to buy a parchament so I can learn fyyyyre magicLife's good
>>740732926>ignore there is a constant influx of convicts being sent there by force>if they run out of convicts theyll just recruit "volunteers" from the streetThe colony is a meat grinder yes, but governments are experts in feeding them
>>740729912>sex toys for Gomez, so they were dressed up in deliberately demeaning fetish outfits.are the remake outfits appropriate for them, considering the circumstances?
>>740733098eh worked in CP 2077, didn't even know it was him. He also makes this place seethe and so that's a plus
>>740733242Orc weapons are almost worthless. You probably get 10-20 ore from each
>>740733296Yes. Now what, bitch?
>>740733098he gave me funny chicken mount so all good
Should I lie to saturnas?
>>740732153>>740733009kek
>>740733442I think water mages can tell. It's a point of world building that I remember
Is there any button to speed up/skip dialogue?
>>740733682press circle
>Randomly exploring.>Find this.That's... ominous.
>>740733682yeah, it's in your dad's gun safe
>>740732757I only remember Baal Taran in the old camp powerscaling the sleeper and claiming its nearly as powerful as Innos. But I wouldn't call a preacher of the sleeper a reliable narrator. It's probably just an immensly powerful creature chosen by Beliar, similar to the undead dragon.The focus stones are a retcon. Probably to explain the obvious narrative hole in the original, where the mages just left the foci lying around in the middle of nowhere and never recovering them in the 20 or so years the barrier existed before the hero arrived. In the remake they're essentially tools the sleeper used to disturb the barrier magic, and they were impossible to recover before the sleeper sent Caine and indirectly the hero to get that orc amulet
>>740733098More useful than the polish UFC fighter guy that can train you in unarmed.
>>740733871 I think Ur-Shak says Sleeper is as powerful as Beliar in remake. Which would explain the wind magic but it's still stupid.The plot hole of not recovering stones is not that bad. I wouldn't recover them either. They're instruments to focus magic located deep in hostile territory. Why would anyone do that?Besides, barrier seems to be a fact of life for majority of people, and I doubt even the mages themselves thought blowing up ore was going to work
>germany got easter egg character>poland got easter egg characterso what russia got? more orc conetent?
I hope we get Gothic 2 remake from these devs
>>740734145Orcs are a giant easter egg of russians
>>740734145the orcs in Gothic are good fighters and a threat though
>>740713208Is the remake good for someone who's never played the game before? Or should I check out the OG? I can't stand low poly PC graphics
>get murdered by chickens>get murdered by chickens>get murdered by chickens10/10 game
unsure if i want to go one-handed fighting or two-handed fighting, i got two 58 strength swords early on from the mines due to crawlers killing the templars
>>740734503if you don't want OG, remake is probably even better than original. dunno about jankiness and stuff because gothic was never janky for me
>>740730056>>740726891>>740731119okay i did it fuck this thing. didn't realize there were new weapons available for purchase in chapter 4 lol. grabbed the executioner from scorpio and killed it first try. was using the gods hammer before
>>740733372Just discovered that, yeah. Merchants are broke as fuck
>>740734145Mining colony is almost as russia
>>740734591You're forced to go one-handed early on anyway, two-handed training is locked behind advanced guilds which you can't access before chapter 3
>>740734145One of the undead orc shamans is named after Lenin.
>thought the mine list was a trick so I just gave it to Gomez>now can't join New Camplol
so is it fun and still jank? should I play the original? I downloaded the torrent but I want the authentic slop experience.
Tranny game play stellar bladeThis is censored trannyslop
>>740735176If thats the case i might just get the second level of one-handed. Unsure what to spend my points on, is the animal skinning stuff even worth it?
>>740735302in vanilla you still could if you would do all possible sucking up to lares anyway, but that includes missable giving ring from mordrag and not talking to roscoe
>game from before he was born and long long before "trannies" (that he jacks off to) were a internet trend traveled through time to get involve with his mindrot culture war shitLOL
>>740735478I did everything but I did talk to Roscoe
>>740735475>is the animal skinning stuff even worth it?not really, unless you're planning on crafting spell scrolls or roleplaying as a hunterGo to the new camp, and buy the bloodfly book from Wolf. It teaches you how to remove the stingers without costing LP, and it turns bloodflies into total cash cows.
>>740735330dunno for new player I'd say to just play remake
>>740735695>buy the bloodfly book from Wolfnta but dam i wish i knew that 15 hours ago lol
I remember years ago when the trailer first dropped and this entire board was shitting all over it and mocking how much the protagonist was yapping while grabbing a torch, or how terrible and generic the combat looked. I don't get why everyone is harping on censorship but we have fags actively defending this crap given how absolutely atrocious it looks visually and how much they seem to have changed it to fall in line with modern homogeneous game design. I should not be seeing people complaining about the controls in the original games or saying they never played them on fucking 4chan of all places. What the fuck happened to this place?>inb4 you didn't play itIt's been a few years.
>>740735695>bloodfly booki dont know how i missed this but ill grab that now, thanks anon
>>740735994nigger maybe because it has nothing to do with that old demo?
>>740735497Nobody born before 1990 should be posting here.
>>740735994shut the fuck up retard
>>740735994the initial demo was fucking terrible. the devs listened to feedback and made it good idk what to tell ya
so is it fun? anyone that played the original, is it relatively unchanged?
>>740736161>Nobody born after 1990 should be posting herefixed it for you, old man website, created on another old man website, based on a Japanese old man website, by an old man, and purchased by a Japanese old manYOU don't belong here. Fuck off to your Roblox holding pen, junior.
>>740736282>made it goodI am seeing dodge rolls, third person aiming and horrendous washed out UE5 visuals.
>>740735994The demo was dogshit Devs actually turned it decent
>bloodflies>do a fair bit of damage no matter what armor your using>tend to be in huge groups>bullshit tracking the demands you circle straf and dodge at the last possible moment to not get hit>50 XP>molerats>pathetic damage once you got any armor>usually hang around in small groups>attack slow and are easy to dodge>40 XPthis shit is wack yo
>>740736474Ok, don't play it then. Plenty of reviews out there so I don't really believe these inquiries are genuine anyways and I certainly don't give a fuck if you play it or not.
>>740736474i dont care what you see nigger im having fun
>>740736508just shoot them lul
>now I have to hear everyone greet me with 'FOR GOMEZ' for fuck's sake, I should've read the journal more carefully because in hindsight it was 100% obvious to go give them the list.
>>740736361Most of the changes are for the better, or just finished what the original intent curbed by time constraints and tech was.The combat is very iffy. Original combat was much more clear and stickier/faster.
>>740736529>>740736576>I eat shit and I'm proud of it, stop telling me offThis site is dead because it's infested with morons like you.>appealing to reviewsFucking incredible the human shit we have posting here now.
>>740736748ok bye bye kill yourself with a gun faggot
>>740736748You sound like an election tourist pretending to be an oldfag
>>740736748oh look the dipshit wasn't be genuine as I stated and had already formed an opinion WHO COULD HAVE SEEN THIS FAGGOT BEING A FAGGOT?!
>>740736748>no I will not read anyone's reviews I will instead ask people on 4chan for their reviews lol brown fucking moron
>people both praising and defending the remake, and calling out issues they have with it>nobody responds to each other>nobody has a productive conversation or even acknowledges anything at all>it's all just ignoring each other or making snide passive aggressive remarks while trying to drive off THE ENEMY
>>740736964what the fuck are you on about mate
>>740736964good try retard but there are1.) people playing the game2.) people not playing the game and seething while posting the same shit over and overI am guessing you're in the second groupI lied it wasn't a good try at all
>>740737076>>740737052thanks for the demonstration

Where the fuck is TarrokI've searched the entire damn mine
>>740737283You need to invest in new eyes if that looks acceptable to you
>lvl 15, act 3>already pretty much twoshotting most things I see Nice I wonder how much the other chapters are changed
anybody know what's behind this door on the wrecked ship? it's on the beach with all the fire lizards (i'm in ch. 4). i haven't trained lockpicking and this one is fuckin impossible
last off topic post from me: What makes someone so incredibly butthurt over video games that they will pretend to feign interest in the game as a shitpost tactic This retard isn't even subtle>ERM excuse me as an non-involved third party I think this game looks bad
>>740715180We hear you, in TES you will now start with Dragon mount that can one shot everything and in the first 5 minutes you will fight an end game enemy This sounds like a joke but this is literally just Fallout 4 with the power suit and deathclaw
>>740737473Nice armor.

>>740718749did they change the gameplay or is it just an unoptimized reskin?
Chapter 2 is litty
>>740737537>>740737548oh okay sick. i do have climbing so i'll have a look around :)
>>740737569I wish drug dealers would kill them. Like the ones I just sold 50 weed to for 600 ore.That guy is the best vendor I've found yet and I imagine he is easy to miss.

>>740737497>you have to hate videogames in order to point out a UE5 remake has atrocious visual design
verdict?
>>740737620>accuse others of Discord raiding>uses twitter lingoebin
>>740737716I forgot it was coming out and I'm glad I did because I am enjoying it as much as I did all those years ago. A competent remake despite some issues like me not liking lock picking and some bugs.
I think I should know better, but behold, the hardest quest so far for me. Or at least annoying as fuck. I watched Baal Parvez chug a HP potion and immediately thought it was cool to bring a few monsters for him to help me level up. Lo and behold the motherfucker only had ONE, so after a few encounters he had like 10 HP left and kept dying to the slightest hit. I spent halfway through the path to the Swamp luring enemies and taking them down because the dude kept dying. 20 reloads later, fucking finally we managed to get there. Do not recommend using him as a crutch.
>>740737790that's just zoomer lingo man. there's a whole word out there off the internet
>>740737790hey retard that's a different person, or are you too fucking stupid to understand that the numbers are screen resolution you RETARDED BROWN APELOL
>>740737864why don't you go back out there then you unironic zoomer faggot
>>740737716bretty good/10
>>740737943why didn't your abusive dad finish the job and spare us all your shitposting in video game threads for longer shifts than coal miners work?
>>740737943>never used zoomer/negrospeech ironicallyKwab You should unironically kill yourself
>>740737580There are differences according to what I read. Some QoL, too and new quests of course. Having said that, in the current state, the game is unoptimized as shit and anyone willing to buy it should wait. It's the first game to make my 5700X sweat and my GPU borderline obsolete.
>>740737943i'm too busy having fun playing the new gothic remake on my personal computer. are you? or are you too poor and brown?
Finished the chromanin questline and it was just a buncha trolling entire time, at least got good exp out of it I guess.
>>740736964such is modern astroturfing
>>740738080I see, thanks for the qrd. I've replayed the OGs many times so there's no reason for me to give it a try if it's unoptimized too
>he's back to replying to himself after getting roastedlmao
>>740737620soak it in, cause thats the best dungeon in the game
Got a question about that swampweed quest.>do I need to go back to the guy to give him his cut (does it open up a legit weed trade where he gives me the weed, I sell it to cipher in New Town)>does the quest just remain never closed off seeing as I can't hand in the weed to the main person i'm meant to in the swamp camp?Also, bonus question, what the fuck is this. Had to fight some literal mini trexes to find it, there's like some weird monstrous noise coming from it too
>>740737839Btw>The swamp... smell that? The scent of freedom. Miyazaki would love this guy
this bitch natalia is standing right in front of cor angar and cor khalom so when I approach them to talk, my character can't get in place for the conversation and just walks around her in circles because she is taking up my fucking position
I havent played gothic but ive played eurojank like elex (torrented to try, was ok I guess)ive heard much better things about gothic, is it still good like the original?
>Trying to clear the black goblin lair.Oh my fucking god this is unbearable. 90% of the damage comes from them throwing stones at me from pitch black darkness.
>>740739958Get a bunch of torches and go lighting up the place by planting them as you go.
>>740740047I used a scroll of light but even that is not enough to deal with 3+ goblins at once all throwing stones while hiding behind one another.
>>740737548i climbed the nearby cliff and it just let to a cave with more goblins, a juvenile troll, and another locked chest i cant open lol. there aint no damn key you fibber
>>740740368The key is in the locked chest tee hee
>>740739958>Nameless Hero dude will come across a full on armory worth of spoils and then go "Nah, why would I put on any of all this? These hobo rags are comfy."
>>740713208>remakeit's a remaster
>>740740529kill yourself you pedantic midwit
>>740740448fuck it i already left and will never go back there
I've gotten strong enough to take on the orcs, can I just genocide them or would it lock me out of content
>>740740475Well, finished clearing the lair.The good: Fuckton of exp, did more than half the level up bar from 10 to 11.The bad: There was jackshit worth taking in the whole cave, and I used up all of my curatives.
Also I do recommend master level one-handed fighting it makes the combat a lot more fun with 3 string combos and I think they are faster too
>>740741017Or, well, that's not true on the no loot worth a shit, the gobbos themselves use morning stars. Those will sell well.
>>740739775Still in Chapter 1, but everything looks to be 1:1 to the original content wise, with some small additions here and there.The combat got a big overhaul, seems that directional attacks are gone, instead you get combo button sequence, where each attack in a combo is done with a different button. Also seems to be slightly inspired by the souls games, but thankfully no stamina system.The world got a pretty big overhaul, often times I had hard time identifying where I am as the area felt completely new compared to the original. I'd say that it looks gorgeous, especially the swamp camp.Cannot comment on the quests, because the ones that got changed up the most are later in the game, there's also new crafting systems, revised lockpicking and economy that I also cannot say much about because I haven't interacted with them enough.Personally, I'd say it's good, but it's still an imitation. And imitation can never be as good as the original.
>>740723075?? they updated the models?
I unironically think the remake is better than the original and I feel like i'm in an alternate world where this is somehow even arguable. I actually can't think of a single think it does worse besides the girls not being as slutty. Even the lockpicking is better and the way lockpicking should be in games. Gamers got to Bethesdabrained with how easy they expect picking a fucking leaders treasure chat to be
>>740722337uh bro maybe you''re meant to level lockpicking so that some plate connections are removed, you ever think of that?
>>740741509The remake is decent, but it’s the game design behind Gothic that carries it
>>740741596>but it’s the game design behind Gothic that carries itYea no shit genius lmfao, but it's an improvement. I don't know why /v/ gets so schizo when a remake/remaster is effectively just that that an improvement.I can't think of a single thing it does worse. They even fixed the amount of cheese bullshit you can do and I also find it slightly harder (playing on Gothic difficulty). They even considerably fixed the later acts with the new shit they added. Take Orcs for example. They're literally just high end mobs in the original. Now they've actually got their own language, more fleshed out lore and you can even learn Orcish that gives unique paths to quests. Shit like that is what i'm always hoping remakes to be. Keep the games core identity/gaming design which you yourself admit has remained, improve the weak aspects
I like how you can make a trail of torches
gothicbabs why do I need a mod in order to put away my torch into inventory?
>>740742150The one thing I think is terrible is that the new economy makes taking the animal trophy skills an absolute waste of both skill points and ore. You NEVER run out of shit to sell from just looting stuff since vendors barely have any money and takes ages for them to get decent money back so you never need the trophies to begin with.
>>740742593because you're a retarded bitch who somehow can't deal with the fact that they are disposable and you have 87 of them already?
>>740742597I wish I could undo them, yeah
>>740742593You can, just swap to a weapon and immediately do an attack. The animation will cancel the torch placement and you don't lose the torch.
Anyone that likes gothic NEEDS to play Drova.It is fantastic>>740713458
>>740742908was a very cool game. Pretty disappointing ending.
>>740742597idk trading jeremiah 3 bloodfly stingers for a health potion is pretty handy
>>740743008you can get that for free though
>>740743165that is free
>>740743256he means you don't have to spend any skill points or ore to loot stingers, I have no trophy skills and still have a bunch of animal trophies I can't sell, not to mention dozens of weapons
>>740742150Remakes can never be improvements, they can be reimaginations, retellings, but never improvements.All the people that made the game memorable by the unique setting and the gameplay philosophy that makes it stand out so much, done so 25 years ago in the original game, while the remake devs only copied the homework.With today's technology, it'd be no issue to recreate any classic painting, and even fix any potential mistakes or add more detail. And yet, despite that, it won't be replace the original.
>>740743323faireach to their own tho i like having animal trophies because it tickles my trading autism
>>740743323>>740743256yeah someone teaches it you, I have it. I guess you can also learn it from a book Wolf has (maybe I stole it and don't remember)
>>740713667>sex slaves>in a prison colonyYou are the last in queue of that Bonnie Blue line.
>>740743546If this is your argument then you don't even know the premise.
>>740743659the only one getting raped is you, in this threadand the one before thatand the one before thatthe line of jizz vanishes into the horizon
>>740743659I don't have an argument. I'm just pointing it out. And yes, I don't know the premise because I don't play video games. What now, faggot? You gonna wow me with your nerd lore lmao
>>740743792welcome back retard
>>740743883Thanks. Good to be back.
So can you get the heavy guard armor in the remake, or the ore baron gear?
any hard ass niggas got the Orc N pass?
Who upgrades mercenary armor? Wolf is the only upgrader I know of in the new camp but he only upgrades bandit armor.
>>740745989Torlof
This reminds me of some of the Witcher 3 bullshots
>>740746286Cheers.
>>740746560jej bro its like indirect lighting completely missing
>>740741509>spoiler If you are going to have lockpicking minigame it should be skill based not inteligence based. If i had capacity or want to figure out logic puzzles I would play different game
>>740741140They really should replace goblin morning stars with spiked maces it could push away economy getting broken for some time
>>740736508You can always tell that if someone complains about bloodflies they just expect to just play the game without tactical thinking. Maybe next time you want to kill one of them you should put a ring that protects you from their piercing (or whatever is english name for arrow damage) damage?
Question to anons that already beat the last boss: did you like the fight?
>>740746560desu this game reminds me of witcher 2 in a lot of ways and i really cant explain why
>>740748335It was the movement for me.Also the combat system is a mix of dark souls dodges and blocks with witcher 1 rythm based combat, its all about timing
>>740747903or just shoot them with an arrow or spellThe fact that retards can't even reason out to use ranged attacks is mindboggling to meEven monkeys throw shit
>>740713208Is this the ugliest game of all time?
Should I cheap out and buy the lowest ones while saving for the later armor?
>>740748335Witcher is somewhat inspired by GothicCD Projekt was the publisher of the game in Poland
>>740748616are you the biggest homosexual in all of india?
>>740748702depends, if you are going to be a mage, the mage armor is much weaker when compared to a fully upgraded shadow armor
>>740748950nah, I want some utility so I put 10 LP into mana, but I am not really planning on full mage. Got master 1h already and it made a world of difference.

>>740749949>Is this the end of the game?Not yet>should I leave and come back?Lol, lmao even. Try it anon, see what happens. You can leave untill you take down source of the temple barrier
>>740713547I remember reaching Xardas then teleport back to water mage area i was able to become a water mage.
>>740718504>>740715286I finished the gameI had 0 issues with 4070 ti super at 1440p frame gen quality
>>740726891Thats why I used the trainer that could make me leap high through the air while running speed at 5x traversing the map much easier
AIYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEE NOOOOOOCENSORED CENSORED ANITA WON INDIAN NATION SAVE MEEEEEretard
>see a chest across a broken bridge at the old fortress>decide to use bloodfly transformation to go up and then hover across>it has a fucking +4 str/dex potion and a 120 damage crossbowoh fuck
bro when the FUCK do i get my minecrawler armor? i gave this faggot the plates in chapter 4, i'm currently in chapter 5 and the fucker's still not done. i'm about to go into the sleeper temple i want the fucking armor
>>740751680give me it you faggoit
>>740751680>>740751918ok nvm i guess i just needed to sleep a day lol
>chapter 2>like 120 blunts>75 healing potions>probably 150 combined cooked stews and good food that heals more than 30Ok, I am ready to play the game
>>740752361>like 120 bluntsyes but what about your character in game?
>>740752917175 blunts
you joke but if you have heal, a 7 nug blunt heals WAY more than food (mana to HP using heal), and you can save potions for in-combat
wow the temple of the sleeper still sucks a fucking dogs dick fuck this
>>740753337Is it still full of templars ready to fuck your ass? That was my biggest gripe, it was a very long stretch of pure rape.
>>740755482well, orc temple guards and high guards but yeeep. plus obtuse and very stupid puzzles!! please stop making me rotate wheels i beg
I'm in chapter 5 and the only staff I've seen is the orc banner, are there any generic mage staff type weapons?
>>740750931Sir, this is not Spiderman
lol they enslaved an orc
>>740738838Take Isidros large weed stuff and give it to Cipher for 400 ore, if you take that money to Lares after doing the Ricelord quests you get 500 exp, if you then talk to Isidro again with more than 200 ore in you pocket, you will give him that money too and get another 500 exp.
Are the other teleport stones given to you via main story missions or do I need to look for them?Just started Act 3 and got the one for Weed Camp
Are there any sex scenes in it?
>>740747903in english we call it rooty tooty shooty damage.
>>740737473If it's the shipwreck on the firelizard beach closer to swamp camp with lock you can't pick, there's an amulet with +15 blunt +15 edge defense inside + some other goodies.
Game that only Germans, Poles and Russians care about or ever heard of.
>>740761671and?
>>740761496Yes. Only gay ones though
>>740761741Seems like a dead market. Poles and Russians aren't going to pay for your game and germans who played the original are like +40 years old
>>740761849>70k+ players online on steam at the same timeThose numbers are bad?
Story mission, Saturas will give you the next one soon.
>>740751083>120 damage crossbowHow much dex do you need to wield it?
>>740761889>>740761305
>>740761496you get raped a bunch of times
>>740761948Thanks anon.And now off I go to work in my stupid eurochudcel life, in less than 9 hours I will play the game again.
just powered up uriziel and i'm going back through the sleeper temple and it fucking sucks lmao. i guess i will just keep casting firestorm
>>740761887honestly thought it'd get 40k max, it's done really well for a remake of a pretty niche old PC only RPG but its been in development for what feels like a decade and not sure how much money they spent making it
>>740718847No dex weapons in the game so meh
>>740762672Bows/crossbows doe
>>740721125What happens if you put all your loot somewhere and let them down you?
>>740713667KEKKKK PEOPLE REALLY PLAY THIS WOKE GARBAGE??? PASS
>>740762689I meant melee weapons, G2 has Rapiers for example
>>740713667Do they know women under 30 still exist?
>>740751083do you need to lockpick it?
>anons acting like women (who don't matter in Gothic) wearing whore outfits or not matters in a Pure Male Game
The funniest thing about this remake is all the newbies getting into it and getting fucked by it
>>740729582I hate Gomez and the old camp too but I really want to learn fire magic.
I hate the fucking swamp with a passion, but it's also somewhat a sort of melancholy feel in realizing how many similar areas I then found in other games like Dark Souls, Kenshi, Majoras Mask
>>740722290do movies also have no character since they're realistic?
How the fuck am I meant to kill Mad Milton in the sleeper temple ?He has a bubble
>>740751083>bloodfly transformationsaw a bunch of anons mention bloodfly and meatbug scrolls being useful for exploration but what about the rest?like molerat scroll for burrowing underground, stealthily bypassing guards?no idea what wolf and scav transformations would be useful for, maybe fast traversalitching to try it but stuck in work
>>7407194131h + strength first is the safe answer, but I would not dump LP into lockpicking blind unless you know which chests you are routing for. Scatty's chest and the swamp camp recipe chest are the first points where it actually matters.Short note for lockpicks / training / LP timing:https://gothic1remakegame.com/guides/gothic-1-remake-lockpicking/
>>740713458Except joining a faction in Gothic 1 doesn't matter. It's probably the least choice driven game in all of PB's library. It's a completely linear game from 2nd chapter onwards. At least in Gothic 2, Risen and Elex you were given unique quests. It's a 8/10 remake to a 8/10 game. But with the game performing relatively well there's a hope that we will get a G2 remake/remaster which personally is the GRPGOAT
>25 years ago>they planned that you can fight in the arena at evening for ore>25 years later>they still couldn`t figure this shit out
>>740763451The arena part is a neat idea on paper but there's total of 3 fighters involved so it would go old very fast.
>OG Gothic with Mod>join the Brotherhood>get an option to get bald & tattooed for immersion >25 years later>the fucking remake couldn`t make it
I've played all PB games and Gothic 1 is like their 4th best game. While I appreciate the remake (1st game had notoriously bad controls and UI designed for keyboard only) I prefer first Risen and Elex over Gothic 1. Risen perfected that "be super weak and explore an intricate and hostile world full of mysteries" formula and Elex has way more enjoyable combat and vertical world design thanks to jetpack.
It’s built on UE5, so you should probably steer clear of the PC version—the engine still sucks—but I haven't noticed any issues on console so far; it just looks incredibly, almost excessively, detailed.That might be the only downside so far: UE5 always looks totally generic—there’s absolutely no trace of a unique art style.Otherwise, it’s completely true to the spirit of the original, at least from what I can tell after a few hours.I loved the original and know it almost by heart; so far, I haven't felt offended by the remake in the slightest, and the German voice acting is perfectly fine, too.I’ve already spotted a few small gameplay changes—for instance, you can cook different things now, and the inventory actually deserves the name.Likewise, the entire UI and combat system have moved away from that very unusual multi-button-press mechanic—or rather, they now utilize it sensibly. I can't really judge the combat system yet, though, because the Nameless Hero is still a total noob who holds his one-handed sword with two hands; I need to level up a bit first.And Mud is still an annoying pain in the neck.So, anyone who hasn't played Gothic yet (shame) really ought to catch up now.
>>740763664>OG Gothic>get an option to get bald>25 years later>get bald IRLbest remake ever!
>>740763336I feel conflicted about g2, it's my favourite by far and I have hundreds of hours but one of things I love so much is the colourful art style and the distinct look of the characters. It would be nice to get a remake but it would feel like so much lesser to me. Now G3 is a game I barely ever played and I would love a remake of that.
Is it possible to learn alchemy before joining a faction? I know that Riordian and a FM teaches you but that's in chapter 3 and I wanna make my own potions now.
>>740763664I don't wanna be skinhead but tatoos would be nice
>>740713208Does picking warder or fire mage actually change anything? or is it just flavour?
>>740738838The sound seems like a zombie, I haven't found the way to get inside either.
>>740763791G2 is the game that doesn't need a remake as much as other games for sure. It just makes sense because it's the most popular PB game. Massive modding community, DX11 and graphical updates, good enough controls and interface.I dunno about the colors tho. G2 is like a prime example of brown green and gray gaming era.G3 is a half finished game full of empty areas with mmo quests. It's an open world RPG with Gothic characters. They would basically have to add the other missing half of the game.
>>740761671>Game that only RELEVANT PEOPLE care about or ever heard of.I see no problem with that.
>>740764094>G2 is like a prime example of brown green and gray gaming era.In the old mining valley maybe but Khorinis and area are beautiful. Unfortunately there is no point in remaking a frequently modded game into an engine that is utter trash to mod, so while it would be nice to have the map expanded it comes at several costs like visual clutter, no art style, very few mods and possibly more woke pushing.Remake 1 doesn't have much but I bet they would've if it wasn't a damn prison colony
>>740763920They learn different spells but otherwise it matters little.
>>740738838>>740764028>what the fuck is thisMain quest related.
>>740764362don't you just buy/find runes? what's stopping a fire mage from going to cronos and buying ice spells?
If I hadn't killed most of the old camp right after they killed my magebros would I have gotten more reactivity on returning to the camp to kill gomez?
>>740764448Nothing, but if you start as a Merc and WM then you aren't allowed to enter the temple of the FM, so any rune that Torrez doesn't offer is lost to you. Assuming you don't find it. Have only found a few runes so far, one for Light and one lighting one by the swamp coast.
>>740713208I might start this game
>>740764568Maybe? At best Raven and the other ore barons call you a faggot before attacking.
>>740764613possibly do it, it's maybe good
>>740764605>Have only found a few runes so far, one for Light and one lightingmay I ask where exactly you found those?
>Playing Gothic without Quickloot ModOh deer Lord
just finished, bretty good game. i haven't played the og for like 5-6 years so it's tough to compare. there's definitely still a lot of old pc game bullshit but very fun. looking forward to gothic 2 remake
>>740713208Does increasing your magic circle increase your magic damage or does it just give you access to more spells?
>>740764667Light rune is part of the main quest, the skelly tomb part with Diego. Just loot everything after you're done and you will find the Light.tier 2 lightning ball rune (Kugelblitz) is exactly above the guy who teaches you how to climb. Swim out past the shipwreck a bit further north and there is a wall to climb, make your way back in direction of the swamp bro while climbing around and you will find a cave. You can hear the 2 zombies too if you're close.
>>740764667NTA but there's lightning ball rune (circle 2) in a chest in cave guarded by two zombies the cave is on a cliff above the shipwreck area near the swam campyou can get there from fire lizard beachthere's also circle 3 ice bolt rune in abandoned fortress ruin, also nearby the shipwreck area but much easier accessible from old campexit through north gate, pick right path that goes along the river and go that way till you see the fortress on your leftbeware there's shitload of snappers and you need a meadbug scroll to crawl in through a hole in the wallthere's also underground cave with shadowbeast you need to cross to reach the chest with rune so good luck
Is it possible to craft advanced materials for blacksmithing later or is looting and buying my only option?Need bunch of steel but it's pretty rare and I probably need to advance the main story because merchants only sell basic iron.
>go to the temple of innos, theres just a few wolves :)>fucking tundra wolves>fucking frost shadowbeastjesus christ
>>740765395think in chapter 2 I already see people selling steel like maybe weed camp smith
Is there any reason NOT to join fire/water mages? Like does it lock me out of anything if I'm just an unga bunga character?
>>740765801Where is that? I was at snow area and found tundra wolves and the ice golem but no frost shadowbeast and the area didn't seem to go further
>>740765895It locks you out of magic. Content wise maybe a few quests but I would suggest you sink a level or 2 into mana so that you can still use powerful spellscrolls.
>>740765895probably in long run won't lock out of anything other than proper armors from factions, still everyone gets best armorand maybe fire mage will block you from 2h trainer for some timebut there is a way to become warder and fire mage afterwards, also you can use and upgrade warder armor instead of useless fire mage clothes
>>740765801>machinegun sniping with basic fireball rune from afar for like an houreasiest exp farm, pretty dense too compared to chasing wolves all over the woods
>>740765931I just followed the way up. Didn't find any ice golem yet.
>>740765993what the fuck is a warderis just a retarded way to spell water mage?
>>740766064idk I though that's how they translated guards in old camp
>>740766064Warden, the next tier after you become a shadow in the old Camp.
>>740766035Oh I was in a completely different area, it was down south in the unmapped area. I didn't even know you could go further north from that pond/waterfall.>>740765993I'm already a merc, if I join the water mages as well will I lock myself out of the next merc armor?
>>740766102Aren't they just guardsmen in english?The germans use Gardist, which translates to guardsman
>>740766218no idea
mystery niggas
Are we really not gonna sell 1 million copies on PC?
>>740766554retard
How the fuck do you learn alchemy before chapter 3?
New camp thread where
>>740767429I just waited for the fire mage to leave the chambers at the old camp castle in ch1 and learned from him. Not that it was worth it since I don't think you can even make perma stat pots from what I've seen. Unless the recipes are hidden later in the game.
>>740767572Which one teaches it and when do they leave? As for permastat potions they might appear later, in any case I want it so I don't need to buy 6 million potions.
>>740767665>>740767665>>740767665
