Comfy hut in the woods edition
are chapters 5 and 6 short? kinda feeling done with the game after meeting xardas and I don't feel like I have another 10 hours in me
>>741112643short is how long you're gonna last once I shove my fat hog into your tight little asshole and blow your backdoor off the goddamn hinges
>>741112643I'm on chapter 2 and I'm already feeling tired kekIt's not a bad game, thoughIt's just that walking everywhere is boring af, but I understand the peasantmaxxing gimmick
>have two handed sword that does 73 damage>nobody sells anything betterMaybe it is because i'm only in chapter 3 but i've had this in my possession for a long time.
>>741112909Is it the sword of one of the Old Mine templars? I'm also using it in chapter 3 after he got knocked out by minecrawlers.
>>741112228How does this game run?
>>741112950Yeah I think that is where I looted it.
>>741112969It is UE5 made by some deranged spaniards.
>>741112950I'm going there right now. Hope I can loot that shit. I'm in dire need of better gear.
>>741112950I'm surprised it runs smoothly on my shitty pc. In the lowest settings but still.
Where are good bows in Gothic 2? I got the fire bow but it only shoots fire arrow. Also do I need to solve the missing persons case in chapter 1? I killed Dexter and the bandits but I haven't gone to the smugglers.
>>741112969I just finished it on my toaster with 3070, after last update it was running a bit more smoothly. Played on medium with AA off, it could get a stutter from time to time, but mostly was running fine.But I remember DS emulation at it's beginning and playing games on 30% speed, so I have high tolrance.
ue5 can be optimized and look preddy good it turns out
I like to just sit on the benches in swamp camp and soak in the atmosphere.
apparently the old mine got flooded? nobody is sending me there thoughI already cleared it out in ch2, does the flooding spawn some new loot or some shit?
hey would u guys be down to start 4 or 5 simultaneous gothic threads? we could make every thread on the catalog a gothic thread and take over 4chan
Never heard of this game. Is this like Morrowind or something? Or more like Witcher?
>>741113292>apparently the old mine got flooded?Who knew that setting off a bomb would have adverse effects?
>>741113292It closes off the mine and some NPCs die there. It's a major plot point, keep playing.
>>741113294>4 or 5That's nothing, the BG3 astroturfing was like ten threads at a time bare minimum
You know these threads are made and bumped by paid shills right?
>>741113349wasn't me
>>741113538sure shaggy, whatever you say
>>741113524>>741113294brown hands
>>741113271>le dark darks and le washed highlights is le heckin kino and optimized anons
>>741112765>walkingyou get a mount in chapter 1, learn to talk to npcs
>>741113745kill yourself
>>741113428Hory shet
>>741113829>le plebbitor bluesky raped tranny try not to wish death upon someone challenge [IMPOSSIBLE]
The ambient song that plays in the Old Mines is quite similar to Tensha Mutna from The Witcher 3, at least the beginninghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVgEdvez8dk
>>741113178>Where are good bows in Gothic 2?Khaled sells high tier bows since chapter 1, he's on Onar's farm standing right next to Lee. There's a composite bow (60 dex, 65 damage) inside a chest nearby the group of bandits camping on a bridge not far from Akil's farm. You will know that you've found the place if you see giant lizards.>do I need to solve the missing persons case in chapter 1?No, you can ignore it until you reach chapter 3.
Is the game any goodI've only played Skyrim and BG3
>>741114531>I've only played Skyrim and BG3now that you enjoy the taste of gutter oil and dog, can you ever enjoy prime rib again?
>>741114605kek
>>741114605ain't no way unc just said that
>abandon, crumbling tower>yet the sconces are all lityeah okay game, just ruin immersion why not
>>741114605Gothic fans are delusionalThis game some outdated shitEven back then these retards thought it was better than morrowind
>>741114374>Khaled sells high tier bows since chapter 1, he's on Onar's farm standing right next to Lee. There's a composite bow (60 dex, 65 damage) inside a chest nearby the group of bandits camping on a bridge not far from Akil's farm. You will know that you've found the place if you see giant lizards.I found the composite bow about 2 minutes after I made the post.>No, you can ignore it until you reach chapter 3.Great. I'm running around looking for things to kill for exp so I can get 60 dex. I figure the composite bow and master sword will carry me for most of the game until I get really good spells.
>>741114763I'm not a "Gothic Fan" though :^)Sounds like you're fighting against the demons in your head and losing
>>741114605>bait out the dishonest question>he instantly drops the facade and replies>>>741114763HAHA
DEMAKE
>>741114605Worse gameplay than Oblivion if you can believe that
>see a treasure chest across the way with a big jump>"Well, I have a few scrolls of bloodfly">Lester fucking domes me and knocks me off a cliffreeeeeeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>741114872Not bait. i seriously can't tell how the game playslike more witcher than elder scrolls
>>741114763It is better than Morrowind. It's better than most videogames. I just played it for the first time this year, too, so it's not nostalgia.
>>741115208>huge silent hill 2 fan
>>741112765This retard is running around the colony instead of bunnyhopping across it on his scavenger, lmfao
>bro just talk to everyone
>>741112228modded skyrim look exactly like this
>>741114531It's honestly great.It's a game that almost expects you to game it and fuck around with its systems to get ahead.
>>741112228I don't buy censored dogshit like this Gothic 1 DEImake
>>741113213is a 3070 considered toaster-tier now?
>my swing goes wide and hits a digger during the exchange zone quest>now every single guard goes EY YOU BEATIN UP EM POOR DIGGERS NOW ARE YA?
>>741112969Fine on PC, but I hear it sucks on consoles.
I've maxed out strength, one handed and two handed and know how to climb - where should I be dumping the rest of the LP i'm earning?
>>741114763>Even back then these retards thought it was better than morrowindEverything was better than Morrowind, and this is coming from a Morrowind fan. Holy shit Morrowind was so bad.
>>741114763That's because it is.
>>741114872It's incredibly how cool you believe you are.
>>741116508Dexterity for the pickpocketing bonus.
>>741116689It's incredibly how ESL you are much having believe.
can you learn circle 1 or 2 magic as a warder? I would like light and tk at least
>>741116883You can become a 6th circle mage despite choosing any camp. Camp choice just determines the mid game armor style.
>m*genot even once
>>741116883yes but if you didn't pick fire mages in Old Camp you're going to have to wait until ch 4
I smacked Lefty in his cheeky gob.
>>741117373Swamp is limited to four iirc
Got first in old camp and did some quests around, now I'm on the verge of delivering a letter I brought back from the old mine to Diego. If I progress, will this lock me out of the other camps?
>>741117821bring it to New Camp first if you want to join them. I didn't and I got locked out. Straight to Diego if you wanna join Oldspoilery, but better than having to be a Gomez cuckboy like I had to
>>741114773Onar's farm? Can you x that on the map please? I kinda want a nice bow and that sounds freaking sweet.
>>741116840Hindu will soon be worlds #1 language you dumb pig.
>>741116198Well, they put them in them. Fact, it's an undrpowered version that they fit in, but it's the fact.
Instead of>You slept wellit said>The dead stood waiting in your dream. Chains held them still.WTF
>>741118470you're more hated worldwide than the Jews, congratulations. Didn't think it was possible. You've brought the world together in a way only an alien attack might've done otherwise. Anyways, head over on to /pol/ if you want to be humiliated further. This is neither the time nor the place, 'saar'.
I'm about to finish chapter 3 and I'm only level 20, am I crazy underleveled? I feel like it.
:^)
>>741118623Lay off the swamp weed.
>>741118696Probably not? I'm 23 at the last stone and I wandered around a LOT
>>741118709more fucking censorship. they didn't wear panties in the original
>>741118757What the fuck, I finished the game at level 37. Why do people zugzug the main quest all the time?
>>741118779yeah they had their giant futa cocks in full display
Sum up each camp in a single sentence. If I am going to play this game, im not joining some lame gay camp.
>>741118696You should be fine if you put everything into strength, melee weapons and use Uriziel or a good one-handed weapon.
>>741118757>>741118879I've been exploring quite a bit, but I think I did chapter 2 pretty fast, maybe that's where I messed up.
>>741119092Old camp, slaveryNew camp, thieves and other nigger behaviorSwamp camp, DUDE WEED LMAO IM SO HIGH DUDE HAHA
>>741119092dude, weed, lmaoi don't believe in rules manWorking to get leverage over the king and improving quality of life for all is a good thing to do.
>>741118562It's actually good.I was a doomer ever since I played the demo years ago, thinking there's no way these idiots understand why people liked Gothic and that this is just going to be a bunch of talentless hacks cashing in on the name, but I was proven wrong.If you don't like the Gothic formula you will probably still not like it, they didn't "fix" too much about the core gameplay, but that's exactly why I like it so much.
I'm level 24 and I just started chapter 4. Like 95% of all wildlife is pretty much dead. How do I get exp now? Assault random people then leave/sleep?
>>741118373I already forgot where it was exactly, but it's near the tavern in a cave near a burnt down house.
>>741119092>old camp: the strongest and most well-equipped, gives the king his ore and gets actual supplies in return, red>new camp: every man for himself, actively trying to break out of the barrier when they're not screwing each other over, blue>swamp camp: dude weed lmao, worships the sleeper and hopes it'll break them out, hell to navigate, bald
How do the Gothic autists feel about the remake?
>>741119092Oldfags.Newfags.Schizos.
>>741119329It's tranny slop, I wish I bought crimson desert instead
>>741119245>Working to get leverage over the king and improving quality of life for all is a good thing to dolol this guy sucks gomez cock to the ballssack chaser dressed in red
>>741119293Missions give some chunky XP.
Mining ore makes you a digger permanently. 3 ore a minute is NOT worth your time.
>>741119092The best camp to join is Old Camp since its in the middle of the map which makes pit stops better, having your main hub be in the center of the map is great.Second, it keeps you close to Gomez, so you can try to kill him and take his shit.
dis bein mi hands busted? cant take ore to swim? pile up top y u not grabbin blow the barier
>>741119654and i thought i was drinking too much earlier
bein down rit there the empty shaft. he say Andrew Ryan he say brow sweat so were mine ore
>>741119654>>741119803What are you doin bruddaGo to them there swamp camp man.
>>741119092Old Camp: USANew Camp: UkraineSwamp Camp: India
so.. why is it called gothic? not many buildings around...
So what's the most powerful build? Still in chapter 1, need to decide what to start investing in.
>>741119092Old is Duty, New is Freedom, Swamp is Clear Sky.
>Haha, yeah. How weird that all those guys died overnight. You just going to leave them there like that? Say, I can't help but notice there's nobody else around.....
Where can I find lizards for the beast of Khorinis? I think I killed them all
>>741120353so.. why is it called the elder scrolls? not many elder scrolls around...
>>741120736something about them having the history of the world or some shit
>blocking takes damage>dodging moves you 2 and a half inches>straying dosnt matter because every single hit is some instant headbutt that reaches 4 yards or somthing>every single item on the map is impossible to see, have to run staring at the groundI think im just an old man now. I never used to be this bad at games.
>>741120883you can get the acrobatics skill in the new camp for dodge roll
>>741120353One the devs was into gothic rock music so he proposed the game to be named Gothic.
>>741120913Yeah best skill in the game imo (default dodge is a joke), I'd get this no matter what your build is otherwise. It also adds i-frames on top of the ridiculous roll range which means you could just skip any fight and go loot anything you wanted.
>>741120883>>dodging moves you 2 and a half inchesThere's dodge roll to be learn in the Swamp camp, I think northeast of the temple, on the beach. A NPC teaches you.>>straying dosnt matter because every single hit is some instant headbutt that reaches 4 yards or somthingIt does, but you have to time correctly. I had the same conclusion when first dealing with scavengers and bloodflies, but it's just a matter of learning their pattern. >>every single item on the map is impossible to see, have to run staring at the groundYeah, but it's rarely important items. Those are given to you or you can find them in chests. It's a non-issue (for the most part).
i'm looking at an interactive map and can't see any onar, unar, khaled or khalid marker
>>741120417STR melee is very much straight forward and lets you be very strong, but there's also been posts about DEX ranged being strong since headshot crits are a thing now.It seems like only magic is still shit and even got nerfed last patch. It also requires you to plan ahead knowing how much you can invest in things other than magic as you don't get access to it from level 0.
>>741120913>>741121147Alright so at least theres hope. Was getting frustrated a bit and realized im not even on the intended path. Does this game have actual 'builds' or is it one size fits all with the stats?
i found a Lee and an ORIK in new camp.
>>741121291Those are characters that only appear in Gothic 2, you won't find them in 1/remake.
>>741112313>fire.png
>>741113745shut up, bitch
Glowing in the dark
just joined da new camp
>>741121467>t. i need to speak to the supervisor tumblr karen (still a virgin at 37)
>>741121361You should either focus on full strength, full dexterity or a bit into either and then focus on magic by chapter 3 ish
>Follow everything to join the firemages, including the trial of fire right up until when they walk upstairs.>Now, instead of following, go and do the quest to join the guard. Join the guard and grab your armor, any upgrades and the 2h or crossbow skills if you want.>Now go into the fire mage ceremony and become a fire mage. You will no longer be a guard, but keep your armor. Anyone else 'sploiting?
>>741121893Crossbow can be learned later from Scorpio in Chapter 4 but yeah I did what another anon did and started the Fire Mage trials, became a warder and mastered 2H and maxed out warder armor, then completed the Fire Mage ceremony.
>finished the swampweed monopoly quest which I never picked up by killing three dudes in a cave>doesn't show up in the quest completion log because of this
>>741121893just pick warder and do the mage thing with blues later
>>741116362Every time someone ask about crashes or how the game runs, some imbecile responds>it crashes on my PC but it's way worse on consoles>it runs poorly on my PC but it's way worse on consolesIt seems brainwashed PC MASTER RACER faggots just can't help them selves and have to spout idiotic bullshit.
>reach xardas' tower>game suddenly crashing randomly every 2-5 minutesno noNOOOOOOOOO
I wasn't one of you, but I avenged you. (Ch 3 spoilers)Hope it didn't break a quest or anything but damn it was fun
>>741123392>he boughted AMD and ryzen 3d cache CPU

>master two-handed>parry a full-grown troll>kick it for half its healthimagine daring to fuck with the nameless hero after chapter 2
What do (you) want to see in the Gothic 2 remake?
>>741124405Sex mods. Rape the people you beat up.

>>741124405Being able to cast more kinds of spells while moving.
>tfw realize I can fuck up literally an entire camp and they can't do shit about it
>>741120417leveling up and simply existing
Do I have to invest in shit like lockpicking and skinning? Will I be fucking myself over if I don't?I was thinking about going a warrior build with a tinge of magic on the side, but fuck me, I can't earn any money.
>>741125561Skinning is doggo with how the economy works in the game. Basically you won't make your money back until you have so much money it doesn't matter, and then you're just x number of LP worse for your efforts. Not sure about lockpicking but I'm thinking about getting it myself as I actually like the minigame it's just retardedly difficult. Just do quests, they shit ore at you.
>>741125561>>741125863IMO these filler skills like hunting and smithing should've just cost ore, it sucks they eat up your LPs too.
I need better armor. I'm using the starting Shadow armor and I'm dying to the Minecrawler Queen with two hits. SAD
>>741126018I remember when the minecrawler queen was just a stationary bullet sponge that couldn't hit you if it tried. Good times.
>>741112228>ComfySo buyers remorse?Got it
I do like the little autistic things, like the game showing you the accurate amount of arrows you have in the quiver. It's cute.
Bros, as retarded as the lockpicking is in this game, I can not put in to words the satisfaction of finally picking a lock after trying to pick it for a straight hour. I feel like I could fuck Oprah.
>>741126142But I have over 200? That'd be a pretty fat quiver.
>>741118779Youre making my eyes roll
BULLLITTTT WHERE ARE YOU YOU FUCKI MUST PROTECT MAI WAIFU, THE COOKING WHORE
>dude wants me to pay him 400 ore to get in to the old mine>kick his teeth in instead>nobody says a single thing about it I thought it was just unnamed NPCs you could do anything to? Can you just fuck up literally anyone if there's no one else around? Or is the KGB going to come for me at some point?
>bopped by a molerat>lose a third of my hpglad i picked normal
Hot gay sex with Mud
>>741126750Just beat his ass in the tavern>spend 20 minutes trying to lockpick Gomez's doors without some guard approaching me>give upI guess the whores aint gonna run away now
>>741113271UE is realismslop
>>741127139Mud is euphemism for shit anon, he has an exceptionally shitty ass even by Colony standards (which includes the orcs btw).
>>741127486You niggas just say words
>>741126916You can beat up EVERYONE, anon. Others might attack based on faction ties, but you can just beat them up too if you can. And it also conveniently means no one gives a fuck when you kick the cultist asses in Old Camp, for instance.
What'd they do with the combat, is it the same as the original gothic?
>>741127525
>>741127520Dont turn me on more anon
>>741127486t. Anonslop
>>741112228>editionI've been enjoying the game so far so I'm not too upset about it compared to, say, the usual gachashit, but why the pseudo-generals?Or am I only noticing this sort of thing now because it's about a game I'm actually interested in for once?Either way, seems like a 24/7 thread 10+ days after launch would be better suited to /vg/ at this point tbdesu. Kinda surprised there isn't even a Gothic general there at all.
>>741127656People will lose interest soon because most already finished the remake. No need for a general for a few days more at most
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gx5lrTnr0rk
>>741127568Why would I lay a finger on my white jungle brothas?
>>741127763Do perma potions make the attributes go above 100 in this remake?
>>741127873Yes.
>>741127873Yes.Shame I only realized that after using a few of them before cappping my str kek
>>741112228I just spent half an hour running around old camp looking for whistler. What am I doing wrong? Also, I got led to swamp camp and have no idea how to get back.
>>741127898I may sound like a real casual saying this, but being able to track NPCs would be some real QoL - trying to find some of these fucks is a real pain. Especially since they moved some of them around from where they were in the original for whatever dumb reason (like Sharky in New Camp).
>>741127898Congratulations, you are a swamp nigga now.
>>741120736You literally use one in skyrim.
>>741121601What does a full dex build look like?
>>741128068Devs forgot to add resistance against piercing damage to almost every enemy in the game so you just fuck everyone up (especially since headshots do extra damage now). But it's a bit cucked since you need to scour every vendor for arrows or bolts if you're exclusively ranged and I wouldn't be surprised if they nerf ranged as a whole next patch given how badly they raped magic already.
can I "spec" both into magic and 2handers?
>>741121147>>>dodging moves you 2 and a half inches>There's dodge roll to be learn in the Swamp camp, I think northeast of the temple, on the beach. A NPC teaches you.It's in the new camp
>>741128125Yeah battlemage is a fine way to play - open with some spells then beat them up. You don't even need to bother with 1-handed training anymore in the remake, you can skip straight to 2-handed.
>>741112313>We want the star wars audience
>>741128186Can I get all circles still? I dunno how plentiful points are
god this game is so sucks i rather do agility courses or rc for 16 hours than amputate my brain by playing this retarded zoomer game
>>741127898>>741127965Yeah but that's kindof Gothic's thing. You can look up a map online if you're really getting filtered, but it's best to just not laser focus on one NPC that you don't know the location of. This becomes less of an issue the more quests you have, and as you do those quests you'll learn the locations of more NPCs. As for getting back, just run. If it hasn't been too long since you got escorted, the number of mobs will be much lower than on your way out there. Bob and weave son
>>741128104Interesting. Does it affect melee at all or just archery? I usually play archer in these type of games.
>>741128264
>>741128276Yeah ofc you can do that, but some inbetween would've been nice. Like being able to ask for more directions for specific NPCs - the ones you can ask about never really move anyway so it's a bit useless atm.>>741128305No, dex is just for ranged dmg and pickpocketing chance.
Youre not real fans you never played the origonal gothics you never spend thousand of hours on it you never modded the originals you never experienced the mystery and the thrill when playing gothic game for the first time it the beats entire elder scroll franchise it will always be the original dark soulsBless those who experienced it as a kid through a friend or a family member or as an adult who just randomly stumbling upon it in a store - youre pure and blessed and just remember to pirate the games and never give money to thq. Youre a real fan if: the remake just welcomed you to our game world; i hope it will convince you to play the originals. Have a blasting day and life
>>741128470Thanks for sharing anon
>>741128338saaar japan love german woman saar need open bob vegana
>>741112228I downloaded a pirated copy to try as a demo and the game is surprisingly soulful. Might have to pick it up during a Steam sale sometime
I aint finna buy until we get a scavenger sex mod + anal rape prison mod with Mud dressed like a whore
Sirs why are the woman not nude??? Bladdy basterds
>>741128470>he modded the originals A fake fan calling others fake fans. A story as old as time.
>>741128369I do agree with that, they could have made the "do you know where I can find..." mechanic a little more comprehensive for new players. I know I was getting pretty frustrated in my first few hours doing donuts in Old Camp looking for people.Side note, Guy's line about "a big red awning, you can't miss it" was such a dirty play.
>>741128758Mods is for having more fan, dipshit
>>741129040Fun*
>>741112228Is it possible to play as a pure mage and complete the game in this fashion? How strong is magic in the Remake compared to the original Gothic? Stronger, weaker or on par?
>randomly cave in Mud's head while I'm running past him one day>nobody even lifts their headWhoever came up with this dude is a biblical level hater.
>>741129274Mage is trash atm. You can learn firebolt rune from Torrez lvl 1 and with a bit mana you can solo half the map until chapter 3 but most of the other spells are either shit, boring or useless. Only firebolt lets you actually fucking move while casting while pretty much everything else locks you in place with what feels like 3 business days worth of charging time until you shoot ff the spell.Join the weed camp and be a templar instead. You can learn circle magic immediately upon joining even if you only reach circle 4 the swamp spells are decent.
>>741118623For me it's the>You dreamt your friendAwww>His eyes were alien Scared for life
>>741126278I feel like 90% of complaints stem from the modern minmaxing gaymers refusing to learn a skill specifically designed to help with opening locks, get stuck on locks that require 15-30 move combinations, waste 30 minutes, proceed to have a meltie due to dunning-kruger effect, cry about it online.
>>741127417I ran one of those lockpick solvers out of curiosity because I couldn't open that door even with mastery locksmithing and it turns out you can't open them as there is no working combination. You're meant to get the key from Gomez's cold hands. Or just sneak in when he opens the door kek
>>741126278Just mod that shit to open all chests, or show the next step to solve it. Don't bother with it. It's not that hard, but it does require some effort. I totally understand how people feel it breaks the pace of the game if you just want to mindlessly kill enemies.
>>741120883Blocking will reduce damage much better once you train qeapon skill and have actual armour and. Am in ch3 and I rarely dodge anymore.
>>741128186Where do I get two hander training? Chapter 2.
>>741129652>You meet a stranger, he wants to help you.>He also wants something else.
>>741128470I did all of those things. My cousin burned couple of CDs for me to play gothic and I loved the game so much I begged my parents and got gothic 2 when it came out. G2 is basically the perfect RPG which I replay to this day with some basic engine and graphic mods.Imo remake is better than OG G1 other than the bugs and VA which is completely fucked on a technical level. G1 didn't age well, even with mods the controls and movement in that game is fucked. I cringe thinking about the trade windows in the OG.
>>741126750Lolno. >>741127417 is bullitt fantard.You follow his drunk ass around at night, until he gets 'super drunk' state.. then he will leave by the north gate and make his way to a river to piss, whereupon you get to kill his faggot ass for trying to beat and rape you at the beginning of the game. Not for any dumb whore. Doing the quest for her just makes sure he goes into the path of fucking off drunk. Apparently it's still glitchy as fuck.
>>741129921There's someone teaching two-handed at every camp. You just need to find the guy. For Old Camp is Thorus, Lee on New Camp and Angar on Swamp.
>>741130016Have you tried Gothic 1 with the unreal mod? You can opt into it like a beta and the entire game is literally Gothic 1 to 1 without the movement jank.
>>741130039I don't mind the mission from that bitch since she gives me 500 xp for something I woulda done anyway
Few things I really want to see done in the next couple of patches or so:>Buff magic, maybe don't make it op broken like pre nerf firestorm but reduce cast times and give us more spells that work when moving. Also fix spells that due literally 0 damage due to how resistances work in the game.>Buff blacksmithing by giving us earlier access to resources and recipes. By the time you unlock decent smithing weapons in third/4th act you get better shit from random NPCs and vendors. >Buff inscription by reducing mana cost of scrolls to make them more accessible for physical fighters>Reduce climbing cost to 0 like the orc language. It's a trap ability that doesn't actually give you access to anything unique. Every single destination that uses climbing walls can either be reached through transformations or it's just a shortcut without loot. Abilities that cost LP should offer something unique. >Fix skinning by nerfing bulk selling penalty for smaller items or actually giving us NPCs that buy specific trophies without penalty like Wolf is supposed to in the new camp
>>741129883>just mod it>it's not that hardI'm that anon. I'm also a puzzle game enjoyer.First of all, this shit is hard. I only say it's retarded in terms of the learning curve. I really enjoy it but the step between diff 2 and 3 locks is a sheer cliff. As a game designer I get why people are modding it out, but I think it's great. I prefer a puzzle system that is based on skill and has the potential to filter you. Which.... I think is a pretty common opinion unless you just hate puzzles, or wish there weren't puzzles in this particular mechanic. By contrast the Bethesda lockpicking system just lets you lockpick anything if you have a basic understanding of the mechanic. Which is gay as hell imo. If you're not getting filtered sometimes, there's no challenge.
This game is shit. Sorry guys. It was probably decent for its time but it's just bad by today's standards even with the enhanced graphics. It's not even about the no quest marker thing either (I actually like that). This game has one of the worst early game experiences I've ever played in an RPG. I wouldn't be surprised if 50% of players have less than 3 hours playtime.
>>741130535git gud faggot
I swear they hava str obsessed dev on the team with agenda of hating mages
>>741130561I have no counter-argument.
>>741130039Ok but where is he? I've been looking for this cocksucker for 3 in game days. I literally afk'ed outside of the north gate for a whole night and never saw him leave.I'm actually starting to think this nigger is a meme. I didn't even get the cutscene at the beginning of him whooping my ass. When Diego mentioned it I thought I glitched out, I thought it was some weird holdover from the OG until I accepted this quest. I don't think he exists in my universe and if I see him I'm vaporizing that interloper on the spot.
>>741130314Good points all around though the bulk selleing thing is difficult since the remake has a lot more enemies and stuff to sell so the old system would end up giving you thousands of nuggies in the first chapter>>741130602Several devs hate mages from what I can tell.
>watching some female zoomer letsplayer bumble her way through Gothic>"well, it is a remake of this very, very old game"Fuck you, cunt, it was only 25 years ago.

>>741130734Only a quarter of a centuryThat's basically prehistoric as far as zoomers are concernedlmao
>>741130734The funniest part about getting older is seeing people say shit like this knowing they'll be 50 in about 5 seconds and how much harder that time is going to hit them when they think 25 years is an eon.

>>741132710Are you serious? Turns out just like the og the remake might not find much traction among eng speakers
>>741129329That was a case in the original too. Nobody liked him. At least this time he gives some experience, in the original game beating him gave you 0 exp.

>>741124405change how crits work, it's so fucking retardedyou either do nothing or 2 shot everything, nothing inbetween, just port the remake system of weapon mastery over, it was perfect.
>>741133987Thankfully Hard progression helps from becoming OP by chapter 2, too bad is doubly sucks for mages
So whats the Best 1h weapon? Scar's sword?
>>741134174They will absolutely port the remake combat with maybe a few tweaks, anything else it pointless extra work
>>741133208they've started using swear words in polish version of the remake, i was a bit put off by it at first but it grew on me fast, there are some lines and line reads that made me chuckle
>>741134451
I have a hard time figuring out why would Nameless Hero EVER pick any camp but New Camp.Old Camp is all about just sucking up to Gomez for whatever scraps he leaves at the table and giving up at actually getting out of the barrier.Swamp Camp is all about the Sleeper and NH blatantly doesn't give a shit about the Sleeper nor believes in any of it.New Camp's only con as a faction is that it's lawless, but NH is a convict that thrives in being able to do whatever he pleases so that shouldn't even be a factor. And it's the only camp where the leader will ask "Why do you want to join us?" and if you answer "To get the fuck out of here" he'll respond you're in the right place.
>>741134451Yeah, as Andrzej Sapkowski had already proven, there is nothing funnier than a tactical "kurwa" out of nowhere.
>>741134451Same for the german edition and I love the lore friendly curses>Bei Beliars rauschender Wut
>poolish "people" talking to each other about random uninteresting nonsensethis series is as dead as ever
>>741134505You can kinda explain it by saying NM is just looking for quick ways to gain power, that he never cared about Gomez or the Sleeper but both factions have their strong points
>>741134505Yeah, but it might be my memory being spotty, but I feel like the New Camp has the least involved introductory quest chain.
>>741134631Good morning sir
The whole parry/riposte mechanic is mad good once you get the timing down. That was how I managed to spank an adult troll and only took two hits due to mistiming the block.
>>741134697Block/parry is the only thing that saved me in sleepers templeThose fucking undead orcs can fucking hit

Do you have enough stat points to play a gish in this game?
any patch news?
>>741134646Pretty much, the rice lord, scamming Isidro and then taking the supply list from the mine
>>741134851yes, and one handed is more than fine to beat the game with, magic kind of sucks so if you stick with circles 1-4 you'll be a-okI think swamp is the best camp now in hindsight
>>741134910Also the dam lurker and beating up Lefty.
>>741134927>either run half naked for chapter 2 >or pay 800 ore for a shitty T-shirtThey don't make it easy and the Templer armor looks weird somehow when NH wears it>>741134957Lurker is an easy source of xp and beating up Lefty is something I consider a hobby
>>741134927>I think swamp is the best camp now in hindsightSo just like in the originl, huh.Being limited to circle 4 isn't really that bad in og gothic because the spells of the 5th and 6th circle are pretty bad, while all the most powerful spells (Firestorm and Destroy Undead) are only circle 3 and 4.

I do like how they got rid of the pre-rendered cutscenes this time around. It was killing my immersion how in the cutscenes, my NH was always becoming a 2H warrior/paladin, even though I've been playing as a mage the whole time.
>>741135041>Non-buynarythat doesn't really work hereyou're just copying this from tomodachireminds me of the tortanic image ("YOU SINK NEXT!"

And here I was thinking they would add a cut sex scene between NH and Velaya. Cowards.

>>741129921Chapter 3 only.
>>741135519Your buzzword-brain is malfunctioning. A redditor wouldn't imply censorship of women is bad. Also>no argument
can you fight the other 2 fighters (only beat Kirgo earlier) in the Old Camp arena after joining old camp? the other one doesn't talk to me and Gor Hanis says "I'm not ready yet"
>>741135906kharim is I believe only during the quest, no idea what's the trigger for gor hanis, people say they were able to fight him in chapter 3 but it might be some level or max mana trigger
>>741135987str or mana trigger from what I can tell from his words
>>741135987I tried him act 1 (insulted him until he wanted to fight) but couldn't beat him obviously
>>741135823You're brown
why THE FUCK did they make lockpicking so hard?
>>741136730Designed but committee is my guess
>>741136730To make you commit to SOVLful acts like making notes.

>>741136915>Even the poorest digger in the Old Camp can get 5 or 6 of these to store 3 grilled meat, a torch and 12 nugs in.I'm pretty sure the locks themselves are more expensive than the entirety of all their other possessions.
Does the game have any gay sex?Don't wanna play an heteroid
>>741136621>seething currycellmao, your concession is accepted
wtf bro..
Is my swampweed harvest quest bugged? I killed all the bloodflies and recieved 50 swampweeds from the picker but Cor Kalom won't accept my weeds. help.
>>741137340there is a second picker
>>741119092the point of these games is to replay them and try out each faction, what sucks in 1 is that you end up a water mage no matter what.
>>741137153Just one guy who implies being gay, and a scene of two guys who killed each other and ended up in a kinda somewhat romantic position but with zero context for what went down.The colony convicts seem remarkably resilient to celibacy.
>>741137364Can you hint me where he is
>>741124405I want it to be as hard as Gothic 2 NOTR is. Also, to have NOTR, of course. But make the Claw better when it's a rune. Cuz it sucked as a rune. Maybe add a few more spooky skeleton/zombie areas cuz they were cool.
>>741137462somewhere in southern part of swamp? there is a big tower building there
>>741137153ye, goblins are fags
>>741136915Where the fuck in the colony is the master locksmith that builds all these things? I have to step by and thank him with Uriziel.
where the orc women
>>741137484yeah he's the one who told me that I need to kill the flies and already got 50 weeds from him
>>741137153Mud is an animal fucker and lets you sleep in his bed.

>>741137194You're the brown jeet who needs to see bobs n veganas or you wont play the game
>>741137446>The colony convicts seem remarkably resilient to celibacy.Plenty of scavs, molerats and meatbug to go around after all.
>>741137605You should reread anon's post.
>>741137396Not really, you can just finish the game as a mercenary, not a mage
>>741137641>Mud: And they dared to judge me for my past, when I was a visionary.
How does the colony keep up its numbers when the king only sends like one dude a month and a digger can't even travel on the roads without being killed by goblins, bloodflies or scavengers?
>>741137641Why bother with those when you can go with the boys to the mountain ruins with a couple of roughspun nets and you have yourselves a pretty decent fuckslave all things consideredif you can stand the screeching and birdshit smell, but hey
>>741137748You wouldn't a cloaca
>>741119092Old Camp: Give up any notions of escape, we've actually got a pretty sweet gig here huh? (Only Gomez really does, everyone else is crawling in the mud hoping to catch a sniff of whatever Gomez is dining on tonight.)New Camp: LET MET OUT, LET ME OOOOOOOOOUT. Also, stealing from the Old Camp because fuck them.Swamp Camp: The Sleeper will let us out! Praise the Sleeper and pass the kush!
>>741112228Censored shit has women looking like gay men. Hope it flops because of that.
>>741137726Diggers don't go alone, they are accompanied by Wardens, the roads are relatively safe, and Old Camp has a rule set to ensure nobody kills each other for no reason, so I guess the fatality rate is low.
>>741137726>How does the colony keep up its numbersKinda doesn't but there was a large convict population in that prison before the forcefield, most of which was cut down to what you see at the start of the game.
Replace lockpicking with picross
>>741136915JFC
>>741137748Most as common, far more dangerous.
>>741137726It doesn't. It's not supposed to be a long-term sustainable colony by design.

>>741119092Old camp: working in the mines for minimum wage that you have to spend on protectionNew camp: working in the mines for three bowls of rice and promise of escapingSwamp camp: getting free weed every day in exchange for worshiping the Sleeper
Come to think of it, Gothic 2 is missing the Swamp camp equivalent. Same with Risen.
>>741138014...wait, what do the swamp campers even eat?
>>741138014Some one has to grow the weed, and harvest the weed, and process the weed... You can't just hang around and do nothing in the swamp camp
new camp is easy to get around and you know where you are at all times but it takes long to get the fuck in and outold camp is annoying because once you gain access to the castle there's no back entrance for a quick shortcut to the southern gateswamp camp is the easiest for shortcuts but you get lost all the fucking time, map is a requirement
>>741138058They trade weed with other camps in exchange for food.
>>741138058root soup
>>741138058There are SO FUCKING MANY ANNOYING CRITTERS INCLUDING THE CONSTANTLY AGGROING GIANT SWAMPSHARKS FUCK THEM IN PARTICULAR around the Swamp camp, I don't think they complain about the lack of food.
>>741138081I find it incredible that almost 100 hours of gameplay later, I still frequently get lost in the swamp camp whenever I try to look for Cor Angar's platform.
>>741137592Found him but goddamn, fifty in advance? these loons have jewish blood in them.
>>741138074>You can't just hang around and do nothing in the swamp campYou absolutely can, only the Nameless is shown to go around beat up lazy people unlike the other two camps.

>>741138214Will it improve (read: rewrite from scrap) the main quest?
>>741138226Yes, actually, I've done the entirety of chapter 2 three times trying to figure out which camp had my favorite armor before continuing on to chapter 3.Yes, I'm also aware I'm totally going to end up swapping out of this armor sooner than later. Don't fuck with my autism.
>>741138081>swamp camp is the easiest for shortcuts but you get lost all the fucking time, map is a requirementNot really. It's really easy once you realize the route shown by lester the first time is a retard trap and everything is more easily accessible if you go left at the entrance, toward the temple. You also have directions to all the important facilities on wooden plaques everywhere.
Anybody know where to find the chain lightning rune?
>>741138164You get 600 ore if you sell the entire harvest to Cipher instead of giving it to Kalom, it's well worth it
She'll be back in a sequel.Let me dream.

>>741138480t moor
>>741138895It's literally the best melee weapon until the very end, when the undead dragon forces you to use something else.I hate the claw and give it to saturas every single time just because it completly destroys the balance otherwise.It makes the cool guild weapons completly obsolete. Why spend six million gold to upgrade your paladin sword or learn how to forge a sword from pure ore and dragonblood when they're all worse than the claw?
>>741138976that's why i said if you turn it into a rune spell, as a sword it's great
>Y'Berion has a swampy sex slave>she sounds like this woman>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIv3cwwofPQ
>>741138851He made me seethe so much that I killed the troll myself in a fit of rage. Okay it took 8 attempts but still.
>>741139069no it's not because at a certain point it's not worth sacrificing your HP pool to keep upgrading it, you are literally nerfing yourself. And you can find equal or better weapons without doing that. Plus you wouldn't have what to do with the learning points if you keep the Claw. It's only good for the first half of Chapter 2 then i ditched it every time, plus the XP you get from ditching it is great.
>tfw I'm the only one that likes the templar armor
Warder 2H -> Water mage is my plan
>>741139076I meant the rune also calls down lightning on an ork from a distance and never thought it was bad in my mage runs
>>741139084She's not there to talk, anon.And you don't talk with your mouth full. It's rude.
>>741136915>thief master chest in G2That shit was nightmarishly hard even with the old and simple lockpicking.
>>741139225True but did they have to cast someone who sounds like a slaaaaaaag?
>>741139307for some reason that one was very memorable for me, I still could do like half of it from memory despite playing 2 last time 10 years ago
>>741139307It's like 30 combinations, the only lock to actually make me take notes
>>741139192I like it too but there is something off about the proportions when NH wears it
Are rolling, diving, climbing skills even worth it?
>>741139427>>741139439I might be a tryhard retard but I refused to take notes and carved it into my memory with grueling effort. I lost precious childhood memories to make space for that.
>>741139509yes to all
Should I wait until the eventual G2 remake that's obviously going to come out because this was successful enough, or jump into G2 NotR? I heard the expansion makes it a lot more difficult and that it's not worth playing it without the expansion.
>>741139509Athletics is worth just for fall damage mitigation, others not so much
>restart on gothic again>all enemies I was dying a lot on first playthrough now I effortlessly rapeuhhh they didn't nerf things right?
>>741139439>It's like 30 combinationsIt's less than 20, don't be such a fag.
>>741139509>rollingYes it's great for combat>divingYes it lets you find secret items like stat increasing potions>climbingAgain yes, it allows you to find great loot like a unique armor AND it's needed for some side quests
>>741139509At least diving is cool for exploration purposes. Rolling is whatever really, I still get my shit handed to me and it doesn't allow me to move much faster. There's many climbable places too, it feels like you actually need that one.
>>741139567You should experience the og and from what I can tell the Nostalgia Mod tones the difficulty of NotR down a bit.
>>741139589Gothic difficulty is the new easy mode. The remake added too many useful things for things to stay hard in Gothic mode.
>>741139567I would say just play the NotR now. The developement of the G2 remake might take fucking YEARS, because it's a much bigger game than G1. And yeah, NotR is MUCH harder than G2 and even G1, but at this point it feels wrong playing without it. Also, most releases come with NotR in a bundle by default.
>>741138480It's their community manager name
>>741139567>it's not worth playing it without the expansion.Complete nonsense.Play without it if you are (rightfully) concerned of getting filtered by NOTR on you first time around.
>>741139646I played all of the OG by 2009 or soWill try that nostalgia mod
>>741139684yeah I'm thinking about restarting again but on custom where I set enemies on hard and rest on gothicI don't like getting less experience and new economy system already makes gaining nuggies slower
>>741138480>Remake made in Barcelona, highly populated by T's and moorsHmmmm
>>741139509Yes to all. Rolling is fantastic for combat, and you get the side benefits of mobility. Diving is just a really nice qol thing that will make underwater sections much simpler, even if not necessary (absolutely necessary if you plan on opening any underwater chests). And climbing gives access to unique loot, the actually valuable kind. You gotta explore for it though, most of the walls you find are just shortcuts.
>>741139693>Also, most releases come with NotR in a bundle by default.Steam and I think also GoG give you a gold edition, so no expedition
>>741139567If you thought g1/remake was still hard after first two chapters (i.e. you're retard) then play vanilla g2Notr isn't that hard and all its additions are good
>>741139857Gold Edition is vanilla + NotR.
>>741139757I know what you mean but I don't like how you can solo everything by chapter 3, so I keep progression on hard now.Mage build is fucked though
>>741139931good that I don't plan to play mage in gothic anymorerobes are ass and spamming 2 spells through entire game is bad too, both in 1 and 2being a spellsword is pretty kino and that's all magic I plan to dip into, pure mage was always CBT
>>741138983Saaar open bob saaaar!!! Butiful woman
>>741139926Well the launcher gives you an option without it
why the fuck would you play without NoTR?>muh difficultyif 8 years old me could clear it, without even paying attention to levelling system then everyone canthere is literally nothing hard there except maybe changed dragons because I still have no idea how to avoid their attacks
>>7411402548 year old you used bmarvinb
>>741140254I never understood it either, Jharkendar is peak comfy kino
>>741140296nope I used that later on to quickly move around map when I had already 20 playthrough behind me
>goblins throw a homing rockfuck you
>>741140827No wonder Milten got mugged by them, those robes are made from paper
>>741140827>troll throws a goblin at you who then throws a rock at you followed up by the troll throwing a boulder at youkino
>>741140827just wait until you meet golems, they throwingeven bigger homing rocks
>obligatory underwater fucking lockpickinghehe epic :Duninstalled
>>741141164>obligatoryNever happened.
I killed 30+ goblins for this and there's nothing worth awhile here lol
>>741141239You get send on a quest here. The chest only spawns if you have the quest however.But the goblins' weapons are worth a lot of money.
>>741141238the faggot Myxir tells you to dive for some shit in the wreck
>>741141164this remake of a 25 year old rpg still filters casuals the old way
>>741141318>quest locked exploration areaTHIS FUCKING SUCKS
>>741140827This is why despite what some threads on /v/ would have you believe ALL goblins are to be killed on sight.
>>741141409>go to place>nothing there>meet quest giver>"so her, I lost my macguffin in the goblin cave this morning, can you get it for me?"You went to that cave 3 days ago anon, of course the macguffin wasn't there at that point.
>>741141319No one forces you to join the mercenaries. And that chest can be opened without learning diving anyway.
>>741141595In this specific case, the questgiver lost a book quite a while ago though, most likely long before our nameless hero got thrown into the colony.
>>741141541And around the blacks, never relax
>>74114082713% of goblins commit 52% of lethal rock atacks
>>741141732The other 87% were killed by me
>>741141614who said anything about learning diving you slav retard
the combat would work way better if the devs got rid of the excessive DS2 tier tracking and taught enemies how to telegraph attacks instead of half of that shit coming out instantly
>>741141595The OG allowed to get the Almanac on your own whenever you wanted.Why did they feel the need to change this?
>>741141923The spaniards want their scripted event with Talas and Milten

Gomez did nothing wrong
>>741142395There is no proof that Gomez knew about the murder of the firemages
>>741141239Welcome to the club and you will visit that place again. Hopefully without the hellspawn you just obliterated.
>warders are second or third most rich and best living people in colony>they just sleep in barracks I don't know, I just don't feel like they actually get anything from being in old camp other than being free to bully diggersshadows maybe don't get to mug diggers but at least they have their own huts and little businesss
>>741142560At least the castle barracks are dry unlike the huts on top of a swamp or the moldy cave dwellings.
>>741142560honestly I'd prefer a bed in the barracks over a shitty hut in the old or new campand the swamp camp? just trying to sleep in that humid place is a nightmare
>>741142494The fire mages attacked first.
>>741142494There is even that moment, where tired Raven said to the Nameless Hero: "I did a horrible thing, but Gomez's name will remain unsullied".
>>741142752Enjoy your 0 privacy, enjoy your snoring, enjoy the constant smell of unwashed men.Sounds like hell.
>>741112228>THQ closed down the original developer of GothicWell, I guess I will just have to pirate this game.
It's hard to take a swamper's bad mood seriously when so many of them are usually half monged before breakfast
>>741143118PB hadn't developed a good game since Risen 1, putting them out of their endless stagnation was a mercy kill.
>>741125941Cavalorn teaches you taking furs for free in act 5 if you bring him the book on Xardas' table. But by then you probably can't even be bothered to trade anything except two-handers which sell for 500+ ore each.
>>741143173Elex is great though.>b-but it was too hardGet gud.
>>741142815>bear
>>741114531Skyrim feels more like an actual RPGDon't know how it compares to BG3 since all the characters in that one looked kinda gay
>>741143328>Skyrim feels more like an actual RPGwhat
>>741143173Risen 3 is fine and the first ELEX serviceable.
>>7411423956 hundred fire mages? Those numbers don't make sense
>>741143173I kind of agree. ELEX 1 was okay, but Risen 1 was their last great game.
>>741143118PB had it coming
>>741143328>Skyrim feels more like an actual RPGyour'e polish arent you
Elex had waifus. They were lame and ugly, but god, did I miss waifus in a Gothic-like game.
>>741143684Nobody in Poland cares about Skyrim.t. Pole
>>741143714Based.
>>741143764but only poles are retarded enough to have some alternative reality when entire world says the sky is blue a pole says it's actually green and calls you a leftistyou are truly retarded
>>741143841You're a leftist. And retarded.And fuck you, my sky is green just out of my sheer spite towards you.
>>741143118Based.I bought Elex and Elex 2, so fuck THQ Nordic. They won't get another cent from me.
LMAO at how there isnt a single important female character in the entire series, even that thieves guild bitch is completely optional and has only 3 quests
>>741119092old camp: we're former criminals turned criminalsnew camp: we're former criminals turned criminals, praise adanosweed camp: we're former criminals turned retards
>>741143308>Elex is great>sci-fiGreat at sucking cock
>>741119092old camp: we have given upnew camp: we're gonna get out even if the plan sounds retardedswamp camp: this totally not evil god will surely save us, let's get high brother
>>741144095>bought Elex 2
>>741143382I'm trying to unpack it because the idea infuriates me but I actually can't argue against that anon.Skyrim has more build variety, more skills to level up, more world-affecting story choices (not a high bar to clear in either case), a character creator, more freedom of where you want your story to take you, and veeeeeery slightly more numbers based combat. Like, minimally, but still. Goes to show that fitting better into a genre's definition doesn't mean you're the better game though.And BG3 is certainly more of an rpg than both, by a mile.
>>741144179Friendly reminder that in Gothic 1, females weren't even considered "human" as per the game logic. They were "creatures", like orcs and scavengers. It only got fixed in G2, where you actually got to interact with them.
>>741144179>there isnt a single important female character in the entire seriesFake fan.Thekla is more important than King Rhobar II.
>>741144450>It only got fixed in G2, where you actually got to interact with them.wtf?! old G2 was WOKE
>>741143118And thank god they did, or they'd produce something even worse than Elex 2 and I don't think that's possible.
>>741144450>They were "creatures", like orcs and scavengers
>>741135190Why are so many anons bad at mugging?Wait until they go to sleep: no/less witnesses and you can get in free hits.
>>741144378>old camp: we have given upThat's the King's answer and total capitulation after receiving the demands from Gomez.
>>741144450>females weren't even considered "human" as per the game logicomega based
>>741144179>there isnt a single important female character in the entire seriesNadja is right there
>>741117885Can you join the swamp camp?
>>741143661Embracer and Deep Silver are cunts and coincidentally many of their games are buggy and unfinished so there's probably some truth to the "the publisher forced us to release an unfinished game" narrative, but Elex 2 and now Cralon show that Björn's head is too far up his own ass.Neither of those two games could have been fixed by just a bit more polishing.
Still early in the game and I have combat mostly down. But how do you deal with wolves? I guess you have to upgrade your dodge because the one you start with is too slow.
still undecided which camp to join honestlyi just want a comfy big armor, unkillable, oneshot everything
>>741144517I keep hearing elex 2 being really bad. how is it worse than first elex which I would rate as high as 6/10? I only saw the teaser for elex 2 and thought it looked so gay I put it completely off my radar.
>you can still beat up Scar and loot him for the best one-handed sword and crossbow in the game
>>741144179>female girlboss questgiverWoke game baka
>>741144697Animals are best dealt with using bows
>>741144697Yeah, dodging them without the upgrade is very hard, especially that 0 wind-up time gap closing dash they sometimes do. Unless you can two shot them after the opening jump attack they usually do or do have the dodge upgrade I would avoid them.
>>741143118It never made sense to me that Piranha Bytes wasn't involved in the development at all. And then they just shut them down after Elex 2 was released. lol Fuck 'em.
>>741144736leave Marvin ALONE
>>741133123The 1xp is somehow more insulting than if it gave nothing.
>>741143118Gothic Remake is censored, so you shouldn't buy it anyway. Ignore the marketing clowns ITT and spend your cash on something else.
>>741145017>WAH WAH NO GOONING MATERIAL WAH
>>741144179They had a great reason for that in G1, but then you go to G2 and the only females you interact with are cooks and whores and the single thief guildmaster.
>>741119092Old Camp lures you in with the promise of well equipped guards, tall walls, steady food supply, convinces you the other camps are inhabited by assholes and loons respectively and you won't find any place better than Old Camp, then starts springing the protection rackets, the beatdowns if you don't pay, the reveal that you'll never reach the top and eat anything but scraps or sleep anywhere but in a flimsy shack, and that you'll always be Gomez's bitch.New Camp is composed by everyone who read the previous description and said "Hell fucking no". They then proceeded to do much of the same, tying the ones who didn't know or weren't willing to fight to either the mines or the rice fields. However, despite this, what they promise is actually worth it, as they're actually trying to get out instead of just facilitating Gomez's life of luxury, and their higher ups are genuinely stand up people.Swamp Camp is people blatantly unable to cope with the awfulness of the situation and the fact both of the other camps aren't exactly welcoming, so they cope with religion and get taken advantage of by the first supernatural being to come around and offer salvation. Despite the camp generally having genuinely nice people, you just know most of them are one bad day away from snapping and getting violent, and there's no fucking way their "plan" to get out, if you can even call it that, would ever work.
>>741144697Mobs attack in the exact same pattern every time. Wolves are a jump lunge and then a short snap, not sure about after that but it's going to be the same pattern every time. Not saying it's easy to dodge, I know I get nabbed by them still. But they are predictable.
>>741144969Yep and it tracks perfectly with everything else about Mud
so after Gomez pranked mages epically I joined the New Camp is it worth it to uprgade their armor or should I stay with my fully uprgaded old camp one?
I know you can join the Water Mages as both a Mercenary and a Warder/Fire Mage, but can you do it as a Templar?
whats the exploit to get he best armor and weapons in game
>>741145017>>741143118It has niggers as well.Don't buy this wokeslop. Pirate it if you have to.
>>741145059And then Gothic 3 has exactly three women you can interact with and all of them are slaves you gift to a rich arab.
>>741145207You can only see 75% of the sex slave labia, I think I became a communist playing this propaganda.
>>741138327Imagine not getting the fully upgraded guard armor. Couldn't be me
>>741145101The only difference in the camp armors is the aesthetic one.
>>741144837PB wasn't interested in remaking Gothic or make any new Gothic games. Or at least so Pankratz claims, but that man was desperatly in love with his baby Elex. Some say that there were plenty of PB people that wanted to do a new Gothic, but Pankratz forced Elex through instead.Either way THQ is probably not a fault here. And honsetly, do you really want the people that shat out Elex 2 working on a new Gothic?
>>741144727Basically:1. Visuals are worse and the game runs much worse, hell I doubt it runs much better than the fucking G1 remake, that's how shit it was2. More factions but most are cucked and undercooked3. The most retarded story you can possibly think of, regarding the main character's kid and his wife nagging him being a stupid fucking bitch4. Combat completely trivialized by range weapons, you find one and the difficulty isn't there anymore5. Main character sounds like a whiney bitch now, trying to show a range of emotions for no good reason6. Took longer to come out and a much higher budget, but it's less polished (half that budget probably went to an ingame Billy Idol concert, I'm not shitting you)7. Most companions behave the fucking same8. I can only remember one elaborate quest in the whole entire game, the rest is cookie cutter shit9. The world isn't worth exploring, all you find everywhere is gems10. The latter half of the main quest is "kill 15 of this" or "kill 30 of that" several times in a row just to make you feel like you're wasting your fucking timeThe only things I can think of they improved on it were character progression, where they managed to make a system where permanent stat boosts from items were separate so you didn't have to hoard shit, the jetpack was a little bit more maneuverable and the non "just shotgun everybody" combat wasn't as bland as elex 1, but the rest is actual legitimate dogshit. It is honestly like they wnet into it thinking "well we have this formula that only we provide, let's make the worst game possible with this formula so people get sick of it already". I am very, very glad what was left of PB died. I'm not saying Alkimia is highly competent and their additions to the remake are not the best (retarded lockpicking and economy systems) but I'd trust these people more than the punk rat couple.
>>741145157no, the Swamp camp never properly kicks you out
can you still get gomez's key??
>>741145325It looks great but you could also really use some colour.
>>741138058Ze bugs and veggies
>>741145346Yes. Elex 2 is actually much better than most open world games out there, despite it's problems. You'd probably know that if you would have played it, marketing cuck.
>>741145451Nah elex 1 was alright, risen 1 was very good
work done. time for some gothic
>>741145451Elex 2 was horrendous dogshit. Are you Björn or something?
>>741145451It's not even better than Risen 2.
>>741145432Eh, I tried. I messed with the settings for like half an hours before I realized I was never happy with them and just said fuck it
>>741144727My opinion:>dogshit performance (probably not so grave with modern hardware)>"""cinematic""" camera in melee that constantly zooms in and out to make combat look cool but it's just annoying>German dub was very bad, everyone speaks unnaturally slowly as if they had brain damage>bugs like perks that do absolutely nothing they claim to do (maybe they fixed that later, they surely didn't with the first few patches they released)>retarded faction retcons, berserkers and outlaws merged into one faction, albs and clerics merged into one, morkons are ultra edgelords and the lore explanations for all those changes sounded were half-assed non-senseI watched some making of videos and the voice acting was this retarded on purpose. There was a scene where the VA spoke normally and the cunt in the studio said "we need another take, this time not so fast!" so this wasn't some mistake, they actively made it shit and thought it was good which was probably the case for many bad design decisions in the game.
>>741145346Didn't PB literally lost the rights to Gothic to JoWood? Hence Arcania being made by a completely different studio and PB was stuck coping with Risen?
>people actually defending elex and the hollow shell of later PBbro Björn get the fuck out of the thread and make your shitty dungeon crawler with your hoe of a wife (her music is fucking trash btw)
>>741145698>>German dub was very bad, everyone speaks unnaturally slowly as if they had brain damageLast patch improved it, theres a mod that further improves it
>>741145701Yeah, but they got them back around the time they made Risen 3. Which is why that game has a bunch of Gothic stuff like scavengers.They could have gone for a new Gothic after Risen 3, but well, Pankratz forced Elex on the studio instead and then it died.
>>741145661Sorry I meant the armour itself should have colour like the Merc one, we all know UE is unsalvageable when it comes to aesthetics
>>741145805Thanks for the info, that was my biggest gripe. Maybe it's worth a retry.
You know, I actually liked Elex 1. Sure, it wasn’t a masterpiece or anything, but I loved exploring the world, wandering through ancient ruins, doing quests, and meeting the different factions, even if I wouldn’t exactly call any of them original.Then Elex 2 came out, and I was genuinely excited. I thought that if they improved on everything from the first game, they could end up with something really good. But lo and behold, Elex 2 released, and somehow none of the things that were already decent improved at all. With a story that is somehow like 100 times worse and barebones and that just completly falls appart in the middle. To this day, it’s the only PB game I haven’t finished, and honestly, I think I had a much more fun time with Forsaken Gods.
Is full on melee "if I manage to touch you you're fucking dead" viable in this game?
>>741146119100% In fact the only thing more viable is archery because Alkimia forgot to add proper defense stats against it
>>741145871Oh, I see. Yeah, I guess I kinda see what you are saying. But honestly, for me, it’s 100% the demon face that makes it a dozen times cooler.
>>741145868>they got them back around the time they made Risen 3I remember even being excited about it like they were reverting into a good position. Hell sometimes I think of replaying that one, it wasn't "bad" just not on par with their best releases. Which is a lot better than fucking Elex 2.
>>741146069Same. I thought Elex was okay, not the greatest game ever but I felt like they were back on track."Surely Elex 2 will improve on that and we're back to Gothic/Gothic 2 quality", but they fucked it up completely.
>>741146205I see. So a strong warder with a big dick of death is viable...
>>741145059>>741145291Based
>>741144697Overhead swing, when timed correctly, interuots theur lunge attack. Orherwise, uppercut swing with a mace is good cuz it knocks them down. Get "trained" lvl in one-handers ASAP, it improves everything, including blocking.
>>741146069Elex 1 was decent, sure it had problems but it had enough good parts to make them worth putting up with. After Elex 1 I was hopeful that PB could make good games again.And then Elex 2 arrived and was just worse in most aspects
>>741146052Get a key for like 25 bucks
>>741146248Shadowbeast face on the armor does make it that much cooler
