Gothic thread.Talk all things Gothic, OG, Remake, mods, patches, whatever tickles your fancy.Patch 1.0.7 woesWhy oh why did they have to patch out early access to Orc cemetery?
>>741757767>early access to Orc cemeteryThe original was like that too. It literally gated later gamer areas with gates.
>>741758337I don't mind the gate but I don't understand why they allowed it in the first place and later decided that it's a bad thing and patched it away.It's not like you can gain 5 levels worth of EXP from few Orc scouts there and you still have to solve it properly later because you can't use the key split in halves anyway.
>>741758468you can get ore skin ring from one of the mummies there which is bit op.
TAM JEEEESSSTTTTTT
now that g2 remake is basically confirmedwill they be braver with improving obvious flaws of the base game? the LP cost scaling system was atrocious, for instanceit's one of my biggest annoyances with remakes, the original can be a flawed masterpiece and they remake it with those same flaws
>>741758642>which is bit opAnd expensive.Fucking swamp merchant sells 2 for 500+ ore in chapter 2.
so why are they patching out hidden weapons in a singleplayer gothic game
>>741757767guys, if you encounter an npc that won't interact with you when they should, revert to the previous patch and it fixes it
>>741759614>will they be braver with improving obvious flaws of the base game? the LP cost scaling system was atrocious, for instanceYoure the problem why G1R is being patched for sissies
just finished the game, 70 hours on steam counter, bug ingame save says 41h it was fun as fuck, really great remake. some bugs here and there, most of the time minor things, except mission with Stone being absolutely fucking broken and very few crashes. it was great and i didn't expect remake to be so good, especially when you consider it was Alkimia's first game and it's just an AA title really, very impressive piece of work 8/10 from me
>>741758642>>741759750Guess that makes sense considering other changes like removal of Wolfshreder bow.Devs probably want people to get OP more gradually.
>>741759858Or dress for the occasion.I got cold shoulder from most mercs in new camp, brushing me aside with several variations of 'Not now.'Thought it's a bug first but when I equipped their armor suddenly everyone was all chummy.
>>741757767>Patch 1.0.7 woessome bugs are still there like message queue shitting it self and stop showing messages about things you pick up, EXP gains etc...but I really like fast swimming you get when you learn divingmakes stocking up on mana weeds from bottom of the ocean less tedious
>>741759831>watch some internet e-celeb shit about OP weapons in G Remake>beat up Cor Kalom and Baal Orun for almost best 1h sword and best 1h mace>if you really want the best 1h sword you can now easily kill Scar for his sword>beat up Gomez and take Innos Rage the best 2h sword and Ore armor >clean up whole fucking map while still in chapter 1>then whine online about rest of the game being baren and progression from random nobody to OP demigod is too suddenthat's why
Just found out that Mud actually has some dialouge in chapter 4 and 5. He even asks you to take him to the sleeper camp. Anyone know if anything comes of it?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ClQyAXb4Krc
>>741762013some anon posted shot of Mud meditating in weed camp couple of threads agoguess that also explains why my Mud achievement is stuck at 95% despite listening to his drivel for hours
>>741757767How long does Harpy transformation last?
>>741757767>have to patch out early access to Orc cemetery?They also patched out fall damage invulnerability while ragdolling from weed
>>741761972god fucking damnit
>>741762337why the FUCK are they doing this?let players have fun with a 20 year old game ffs
>>741762383Moors didn't mention it in the notes either lmao
>>741762084Nope, I got that achievment in chapter 1. You probably just got unlucky
>>741762243There's no timer so until your HP lasts or you change back.
>>741757767is it okay to start playing the remake now or do i keep waiting? reading the threads gave me the impression that they keep nerfing and buffing shit
>>741759614>now that g2 remake is basically confirmedSouce on that? They haven't even reached a million sales
>>741762609Yeah, looks like they are still trying to balance shit and make the progression smoother.You can still get OP early if you know what you're doing, it just takes more effort now.They also squashed plenty of bugs and Permadeath works as intended now but game is still far from being completely bug free.
>Diego is the nice dude, I guess I will join the Old Camp>the guy from the new camp is nice too, don't know which one joinHow do I choose?
Can i just load the previous release and get all the OP shit chapter 1
>>741762856Basically>>741762850Whoever's armor is cooler
>>741762856probably yesbut you still can get majority of >>741761972 except for the Ore armor and some slightly OP gear mentioned in thread that was just lying around the map
>>741762383they probably found out that tactical toking can be used to reach some important area too early
>>741762856What for? Just get yourself a save filehttps://www.nexusmods.com/gothic1remake/mods/236
>>741763309those items got removed anon or replacedsave files wont do you any good
>>741763309>This saved Game is Gothic difficulty with Permadeath active.>You start with some slightly enhanced stats, Ore Armor, a few weapons, some materials, and many skills.Never understood this shit.Why would anyone bother playing challenge mode and then use cheats to take away the challenge.
What useful mods are there on nexus?
>>741763728Lockpicking, better mage robes, some mod to improve magic and mages and something to remove volumetric fog cause the settings don't let you
>>741762850It's the new-game-plus feature of Prianha Bytes games.
>>741763728Lockpicking auto mode, engine tweaks although i dont know if it works
>>741763884>remove volumetric fogDont, this will tank performance and make LOD look awful
um??
>>741763984bullshit, my performance stayed fine and lod is ok too
>>741763995Hornybro was built different and he chose a comfy place to die.
>>741757767Is the remake good? Never played OG
>>741763728Mage Balance and Better Mage Robes feel mandatory to have fun with a mage runMana regen is nice tooI also like Skillful Lockpicking, because it rewards you for investing in lockpicking by making the mini game significantly easier with trained and basically braindead with master instead of just completly bypassing it.
>>741764090Never played OG either.Already 160 hours in and it's awesome.There are still bugs and you start out as complete wimp that dies in 2 hits from any enemy.Game also doesn't hold your hand and expects you to figure things out for your self.
>>741764090Far above industry standards as far as remakes are concerned. If you think you'll like a game that will kick your teeth in if you let it, go ahead.
>decide to play Gothic 2 after the Remake again>but this time with mods, let's fucking go>somebody says Nostalgic Edition is gold>try it out, find the newest version, install>Polish translation is fucked because guy who made translation apparently "threw a temper tantrum", by the words of the dev on Steam Workshop>there is fucked up machine translation even on the lines that originally were in the game>no ETA on fixing itGod fucking damn it, I did so much in the first chapter already I am not downgrading just to have proper full translation, for fuck's sake.
>>741764412What new lines are there even? Nostalgia mod changes basically nothing of the main story, even companions just re-use NPC lines, edited together semi-coherently.
>>741764496Ther are several unvoiced lines in the first conversation with Xardas when talking about Raven and Water Mages, but they are translated well. Also, until you start working for Bosper, he is teaching you other hunting skills (which didn't happen in OG game) and it has unvoiced explanatory lines. So far it looks like three different translations (original, a bit better one but diferent and straight up AI shit) smashed together and it can be all of those within one dialogue. Some lines are even in German. NPC naming is all over the place. I dunno what the fuck happened there.
>old camp: LAW AND ORDER>get 'cleansed' by OC guard almost to death as soon as I take a first step in Colony>several guards are asking for protection money>if I don't pay they sic mass murderer and group of diggers to beat the shit out of me and rob me blind>after some shit goes down, camp fuhrer wants to exterminate me because I did what his goons asked me to do>become persona non grata despite spending most of my time in the Colony running important errands for them>new camp: LAW OF THE JUNGLE, YOU GET YOUR THROAT SLICED FOR BUNCH OF ORE>most people are nice except for one fag that wants to force me to do his shitty job, stops after one good beating>his superiors thank me for teaching him a lessonwhat you're being told by NPCs and what happens in game doesn't match very good
>>741764682Really I am playing the German version but I didn't notice anything additional like that. A real shame since I love the polishing the mod does.
>>741764770i have yet to hear>volles pfund aufs maulor other "auf s maul" voice lines sadly
>>741764698OC = freshie starter area with shitload of important people and facilities to start you on your journey.Devs are just trying to scare you so you don't make things harder than they need to be, especailly in the beginning.
>>741764698the lack of structure makes people more wary of each other. in the old camp there's a clear power dynamic and you know who you can fuck with.
>>741764698Yeah, the New Camp should have had more bullies like Lefty. It did have the asshole bouncer who tries to rip you off to let you into the tavern, even though you could enter the tavern with the free Digger armor you get in the Free Mine. Then there's that piece of shit Baloro, who makes you go grocery shopping for him and doesn't pay you for it. Lares also tries to rip you off for a lot of money in order to join the camp, even though it's completely unnecessary if you just bring him the list of demands from the Old Mine.They just fuck you over and rip you off for the most part.The Old Camp going crazy after you get the plot into motion was great though, imo. They thrive on stagnation, so it's natural for them to lose their shit over a lot of things happening.
>>741764698Most of the people who tell you New Camp is scary and awful and you'll get shanked at any moment for anything at all are Old Campers. In the diggers' case, because the only thing they ever see are the bandits on the roads shaking them down for their ore.
>>741764698Yeah, Old Camp is lying about New Camp being lawless place, plus Jarvis tells you exactly what is the issue - if you start shit, you're on your own. If you behave, it's gonna be okay.
>>741765597It is a lawless place, being lawless is just not quite as bad as the old campers imply it is. Overall, most of the new campers are aware that it's their own temperance that allows the camp to function and that at the end of the day, they're all there because they want to actually escape which requires collaboration.
Am I a bad person for killing the random asshole bandits on the map that try to beat me up and rob me? Or the fucking blackmailer assholes on the way to the NC?
>>741765838You are a bad person for visiting a racist site like 4chan, anon.Killing bandits though is pretty normal, they got loot after all.
>>741765838There's one really funny bandit (the black one near Cavalorn's hut) that apart from really making it clear he's not enjoying robbing you or anyone, if you beat him and win, he actually gets super hyped up about it and you make his day. He's like a shonen protag that got thrown in the colony.
>>741766042aw man I killed him for double xp. shame.
>>741766074always spare niggas if you can
>>741766118>joins KalomNah, killing him when getting the focus is a mercy
>>741766118I did actually spare Nyras, but playing on hard ironman has me acting ruthless. the LP is so scarce.
>>741766118Except Gomez. Fuck him.
Why the fuck does the VA of the hero sound like DanielSL
>>741766118Total nigga despawn
>>741764698>Gothic 2>meet Lares >"nice to see you lad, of course I help you join a faction">Lee is leader of the mercenaries, also wants you to join his faction (but won't let you immediately due to gameplay reasons)>meanwhile two old camp fags have become human traffickers that want to kill you (Dexter and Raven)
>>741767652Wolf being happy to see you always brings a smile to my face.
Some of the most unfuckable vidya harpy I've seen
>>741757767each time I see public post about remake all comments are begging about 2
>>741766118Nah i just kill bloodwyn because he's some annoying faggot, at least jackal have decency to not asking for another nuggets
>>741768691And I don't really understand why. Gothic 2 is a much more boring and generic setting than Gothic 1, with a story that's just "kill dragons lmao"
>>741764990New camp filled with assholes and for baloro i need another grape to finish his quest, where can i find another grape ffs and i think im gonna kill his bitch ass after that
>>741769080>anon pulls out his big spiky mace>did someone ask for gRAPE?
>>741769054Well the story of G1 is "an ancient evil awakens" and G2 is just as immersive when it comes to the world, Khorinis is comfy and nice to explore.
>>741769656I was rubbing my dong on OG bare wenches and now I have cuts from all those sharp polygons
>>741762850Old Camp is kinda-canon in the OG. The betrayal and Lee letting you join the New Camp is very touching
>>741769054it's bigger and structured better, it's only fault is worse setting
>>741768265yea they weren't really lookers in the og either.
I reverted to an older save to join the New Camp, bought the heavy armor from Wolf immediately and now I'm fucking invincible
>>741770550I forgot how much bigger the weapons were in OG.
>>741757767i hope whoever tought about the lock pick system gets analy raped.
>>741770724like, the guy who came up with it, or anyone who ever thought about it? cause that's a lot of people.
>>741769054Boring plot aside, my main issue with Gothic 2 is the awful pacing as an open world game."ALL EVIL IN THE WORLD IS COMING RIGHT NOW! HURRY!" is a terrible hook compared to "You're new here, should join a camp if you want to be safe".
>>741764990They have the blackmailers on the bridge.
>>741770724>even the ill wishes are thematically consistent with game settingdeepest lore
>>741770872it would be much better if Xardas knew something was off but wasn't sure what and sent the hero to investigate instead of HERE BE DRAGONS
>>741770872>"ALL EVIL IN THE WORLD IS COMING RIGHT NOW! HURRY!">oh yeah you should herd sheep and learn how to make potions first or else you can't see lord Hagen>no i'm not doing anything besides standing on my magical gooncave towerI just don't feel the gravity of the situation.
>>741770964>it would be much better if Xardas knew something was off>Xardas/Gandalf is going to Isengard/mainland to follow a hunch, find out what the Paladins know in the meantimeThere.Or just go with the NOTR plot. Water Mage expedition as its own standalone adventure fits a lot better.
When I learn the master level of 1h or 2h do I get some extra damage or swing speed?Description speaks of combo finishers but I'm usually just do pokes and don't care about combos.
What a line
>>741771807You should strive to let combo finishes when you can because the attacks go in increasing order of damage.I think it's slightly faster, but more importantly your crit chance is higher.
>>741771807yes the animations are faster, you don't get straight up damage but you do get a higher crit chance, also the master pokes have more forward movement so the reach is better. also also mastering the weapon makes blocking faster so you can reliably parry.also also also you can combo the stabs and should do so. stab>cut>stab is a great combo
>>741771807you get new (faster) animations and get higher crit chance
>>741771976>>741772001Thank you.
Started yesterday. How does permadeath work? The game autosaves. And i assume you can still manually save. So if you die what happens?
>>741772230You can only have one save that constantly gets overwritten. When you die it gets marked with a skull and is not loadable anymore
>>741772230The permadeath stuff if really shoddy. The game saves... occasionally. You can save manually if you want to quit the game or something. There is no instant save the moment you hp hits 0 so it's very easy to cheat.
>>741772338>>741772356ok, kinda weird to add that in a game like this since you can easily die at any point especially at the start. But should be doable after 1 or 2 playthroughs
>>741772481I'm actually doing my 2nd run on hard with permadeath rn. Just got to chapter 3. It is scary at times. The 1st chapter is the worst. Almost got ended by a snapper that blended perfectly with the foliage yesterday.Also bows are boring AF would not recommend.
>>741772481>especially at the start.at the start it doesn't hurt so much also this is one of the games where knowledge allows you to get OP in relatively safe manner despite the harsh conditionsyou just have to know your current limitsnot trying to run into pack of orc dogs with +12 sword to farm EXP early
>>741772613>Also bows are boring AF would not recommend.How the fuck else do beat hardcore then? Melee requires perfect dodge and parrying to not get ripped apart all the time and magic takes too long to get online and even then falls off in the middle of the game
>>741772862take the blocking pill, dodge is way too high risk
Is it me or does orc weapon training increase speed for 2H?I maxed out 2 handed weapons and after learning orc weapons it feels like I'm wielding 1 handed at this point.
>>741772982This, with enough def stats the damage will be at most 1 but beware of some attack type because they have knockdown property even when blocking
>POV you just spend 20 minutes opening a chest
>>741774468I swear of god lvl 3 chests are trickier than lvl 4
>>741773030I didnt feel a difference but maybe thats because I only played the non updated first cracked version
Has /v/ finally admitted the remake is literally the definitive way to experience Gothic yet?Haven't been on /v/ for a week because i'm doing the rounds larping as a soccer fan to piss off /sp/ for the world cup.
>>741774468In a way the new lockpicking mini-game is really cool and at the same time it's just too much for amount of locked chests available in the game.I feel like a compromise would be nice with the average chest getting the old lockpick mechanic and the big ones with nice wards get the new mini game
>>741775172More chests locked behind specific keys Shit chests not having more than 2 plates to move
>just doing some casual exploring in the monastery ruins>find a 100 damage two-handed axewhat the FUCKwasn't the Troll Fist the strongest melee weapon in the original?
>>741775380wait what monastery ruins? is that orc territory?
>>741775467no, the one where you go to look for a focus stone
>>741774994The remake isn't bad by any means, but no, the definitive way to experience Gothic is to play Gothic.
>>7417752352 is a bit low, I think 3 is pretty good for the usual 10 ore + torch chest
>>741774994it's very faithful in terms of world, jankiness and bugsif you enjoyed the original you will most likely enjoy this one too
>>741775380where the fuck is it hidden?i went through very thoroughly yesterday but only found sword of death? in shadowbeast lair
>>741775467is the monastery is the one gated building with lots of snapper inside it? Got the key in the underground but i dunno how to open the gate
>>741775716NTA but I think it's hidden somehere around where the young troll comes from in the mission with Gorn.
>>741775982If you mean the one next to the fog tower that's chapter 3 main quest content, you might be able to enter to some degree but some things should be gated by progression.
>>741775982> Got the key in the underground but i dunno how to open the gatethere's a meatbug scroll toolook for the hole in outside wall with meabugs crawling around
>>741775716when you enter the cave there's a way the leads up, I think it was the right one. at the end of that path is a room with a chest and a bunch of corpses. All the way at the back is a blood splattered wall you can climb. The axe is there.
>>741776134Thanks, going to check it now.
>>741775531Name one thing the original Gothic 1 does better. The remake being such a true to spirit remake while improving everything from even fleshing out the Orc sections of the latter half of the game just means it's literally just better. Combat is far better too both in feel and even complexity.The fuck complexity did the originals even have when the entire difficulty comes from simply getting to grips with the combat and then the game turning into a "just walk up, spam the directional attacks to win". Look at the state of the bows, basically just glitch out the AI and turn your brain off to auto win every single fight because the bows are fully locked on. Gothic remake is more difficult and superior to the original Gothic 1.
Here's a wee little tip: if you stop in front the guards carrying a torch at Old Camp for a little while they will drop their torch on the floor, take another out and continue on their business. lolIt's kind of funny, and a free torch
>>741776115Ah i remember the meatbugs thanks, but one anon said that you have to be careful entering it or the snapper will aggro you as meatbug, is that right?
Just got to chapter 3 (haven't played in a while, was on holiday). Is this the half way point of the game? Because I kinda don't want it to end and I can sense the content is drying up somewhat already with it more focusing on main quest stuff.
>>741776720>was on holidayWhat holiday?
>>741776687>snapper will aggro you as meatbugI only got overrun when I turned human.I could crawl through whole courtyard in meatbug form and snappers didn't give a fuck.That was before 1.0.7 though so don't forget to save.
>>741776720If you go by world density it might be like 3/4ths of it already, hell since you have enough gear and level to go everywhere in the map it might be almost all of it.But yeah technically half-way, everything afterwards gets more focused on mainquest but you still have some side quests here and there.
What's up with the 4th camp? Are there anything valuables in there?
you know, funny that one of the bridge guards at the very start tells you the old camp is under the bridge, when you can actually find a miniature old camp under the bridge.
Much as I loved G1 I did dislike the sections towards the end, specifically the sleeper temple.Does the remake make it more interesting?
>>741776978No, absolutely nothing, just one quest.
>>741777189The orc area is a bit more fleshed out but the temple remains basically the same. Only thing better is the fight against the sleeper
>>741778509Thank god they replaced the ritual swords with Uriziel. That shit was horrible.
Speaking of orcs. Is there a way to complete the Orc enclave through violence? I had to do their stupid quest because Ur-Shak turned hostile and he's immortal.
>>741770724>difficulty 3 lock>needs 20+ moves to open>contains unfinished sword, 15 ore, a pan and a torchYeah fuck this system and the one single accursed Spaniard who thought this one up
>>741778753Personally i think the lockpick is a nice brain training but too much of it sucks the joy of cracking the chest especially the underwater one and too much of the locks don't contain at least 1-2 independent slide
Should I join old camp or new camp? I like the old camp armors from what ive seen but i cant find screenshots of the late new camp mercenary armors. Also how long does it take in old camp to be able to learn 2h?
>>741779631It's fine to go with the aesthetic you prefer. The impact is lesser than you might expect. 2h training is unlocked in Chapter 3 for all camps, but you need mastery in 1h first.
>>741778705Maybe if you find a way into the arena from the other side. Ur-Shak only moves into the village after you use the Ulu-Mulu to open the main gate.
>>741779631From all things i gathered here, camp choices don't really matters and pick the one that have the best looking armor. 2h training open in chapter 3
>>741779526I really enjoyed the puzzles of lockpicking for the first 10 hours. I made me invest in lockpicking skills because at first being master lockpicker really helpee a lot. But then there are thise chests that sometimes arent even lvl 4, that even with master lockpicker you break your head on it for 30 minutes and end up using an online solver and in the end to get shitty stuff 80% of the time. It really made me regret investing lp in lockpicking, so i just restarded the game and i just use a solver all the time and didnt lose my lp.
>>741779742But i heard new camp can get 2h in chapter 2?
>>741778705>Speaking of orcs. Is there a way to complete the Orc enclave through violence?I'd say no but take that with a grain of salt.I managed to sneak inside the temple twice.Once was with Muk's help and when I approached the barrier there was a cutscene and bunch of warriors jumped me.When I killed them and returned outside Ur-Shak wasn't happy about bunch of orcs dead by my hand but didn't turn hostile.Only after I solved the shaman riddle I could break the barrier (another cutscene).Other time was my break-the-game-as-much-as-possible playthrough and I used bloodfly scroll to fly inside temple with the amulet.I couldn't even speak Orc yet and I didn't have Ulu-Mulu. Approaching barrier did absolutely nothing.
>>741779986in the original, if you know what you're doingin the remake 2h training is locked to the advanced warrior guilds (warder, merc, templar) and requires you to master 1h first
>>741779986It may have been advice regarding the original gothic. Back then the mercenaries didn't have a story progress requirement to join, you just needed to be level 10 and once you were in Lee (their leader) would teach you.
>>741780141Yeah i guess the AI is full of mixup with the original.
>>741763728Here's my recommendation from de-shittification. Everything that moves the game closer to classic, I consider an improvement.>Classic Traders locks in the sale prices>PutAwayTorchMakes the torch a toggle>QuickAnimationsBe default everything is instant, so you need to tinker the config to make sleeping / inventory item use as fast as it was in the original. This makes the most significant improvement to the game imo. Animations take 1 year in this game. >LockpickSettingsYeah, not doing all that again on 2nd run. Just spend the 30 LP on picking and F6 everything, pretend that's canon.
>>741763984Use the fog tuner mod so there's fog in the far distance, but not in the immediate vicinity.
I've just finished the remake of the first game. now I am about to play gothic 2. The controls are janky but I can get used to it. what is the difference between the gothic 1 and 2 combat? there's a toggle in the settings and can't find shit.
>>741780871in G1 you hold down the LMB/Ctrl to lock on and once it's help you input W, A, or D for different attacks. IIRC correctly Gothic 2 lets you swing with a single button press, without locking on, but the details are lost on me because I always switched to G1 controls. I think there was something wrong with G2 controls.
>>741780871OG Gothic1 had a very unique control scheme in which you used Ctrl as an "action" key then used movement keys to direct your action, picking items was Ctrl+Up, attacks where on Ctrl+Left/Right or Ctrl+Up etc etc...G2 lets you pick between this scheme or a more normal scheme in which you just pick items by using the action key. If you haven't played OG G1 and liked its control scheme pick always G2 controls.
Why the fuck are shadow beasts so overtunedI swear they're the strongest fucking enemy with their zero telegraphing attacks that do 6 million damageFucking demons and undead orcs aren't as hard as these niggas
>>741770630It's about time Kakaowy released a new banger
>no you see, I had to leave the Fire Circle because I wanted to study the dark arts as they're the key to the barrier>ah yes that's my rapemurder evil tower, built in orc territory, I had to build it this way there was no other way
>>741759614>will they be braver with improving obvious flaws of the base game?I dont believe so, G2 count as Masterpiece. They will try to 1:1 copy even more. Maybe with G3.
Currently i'm exploring orc territory but from what I've heard there are orc quests and NPCs, can I fuck myself by murderhoboing too much right now? I'm in Chapter 3.
>>741782562You just need to block them and identify the moments in which they stand still for a quick smack to the face.
Have they made the fame uglier with the patches? I pirated first on 1.0 and it was gorgeous then I got the game on a grey reseller for $20 but with patches I feel the game took a hit visually. I uninstalled the pirates version so i cant compare.

Is there anything to do in the snowy area besides the ice golem? I heard anons talk about shadowbeasts and something but I don't find anything but wolves and that.
>>741776592>Name one thing the original Gothic 1 does better.Nothing when it comes to gameplay but the designs were a lot better than what unreal can give us.
>>741786539there are 2 snow areasyou're in the one nearby Xardas towerother one is near the old mine (look for spot where you can climb)that one has shitload of tundra wolves, ice element shadowbeast and temple with some goodiesthere's also nice talisman in volf cave
>>741786673>other one is near the old mine (look for spot where you can climb)Damn I missed that entirely and I've been there plenty of times, crazy.
>>741786467I don't know why there's so much gachi Gothic content but I love it.Well, yeah, I know why there is, because Gothic 1 is 99% just dudes living together with little to no intimacy.
This isn't gonna go on sale tomorrow, is it?
>>741787035It wasn't even on sale through steam at launch.
So these niggas have been meeting at this place for years and never noticed the undeground is infested with skeletons and an undead mage necromancer?

Do I need to interact with the bandits during that quest from Thorus, or can I just walk in and slaughter them?
>>741788214You can just run through and those guarding entrance won't follow too far.Rest won't aggro unless you do something stupid.You can also murder the guard trio.Boss bandit will always ask how did you manage to get past them.
>>741788404no, I meant. do I need to talk to anyone at all? will thorus be satisfied if I just start blasting until I'm the only one left standing?
>>741788505>do I need to talk to anyone at all?You can talk to Boss bandit at the top of the camp, forgot his name.No idea how Thorus would react to bandit genocide solution but my guess would be he'd approve.
>not joining old camp so beat up gomez and his goons for their loot, making them all aggressive>first mission from the swamp camp is a weed delivery to gomez
>>741788716sleep in the swamp camp for a couple of days and they'll forget about it.
>>741788716you can do it, just need to catch Raven near the door to building where Gomez sitsif you talk to Rraven before guards aggro you can deliver the weedchances are they'll aggro anyway lateryou did take all of their weapons, didn't you?
>>741788716I had put the same type of joints that Kalom gives in my hotbar so I kept smoking them on the way to the old camp, killing small creatures with firebolt.Never noticed until Bartolo called be a cheat
>>741788773>>741788892i just let a guard snipe me with a xbow while on a shelf so they couldn't finish me off. worked ok
>>741757767Playing the og gothic for the first time, I'm a decent ways in, been to all the camps, cant really figure out how to join the sect or the new camp, and I feel stuck with the old camp quests cos I cant beat up the arena guys for brownie points and I stole that whistler faggots swordTips?
So, do you play as the same dude in gothic 2 and 3?
>>741789473yeee
>>741789502based
>>741789419In the OG game you can kill a troll with a rusty sword if you are patient enough so git good
>>741789948That is not helpful at all
>>741789948no you can't. there's no minimum damage in G1. G2 introduced that, and with it you can kill trolls with nothing but a big stick and a lot of patience.
>>741789948speaking of trolls, how much hp does the troll valley fuck have? i pelted it with a heavy crossbow and 120dex and did little dmg
>>741790394Weirdly enough trolls with swampsharks are the only enemies that have decent point resistance
>>741790394that's the rare breed of scripted fight trollyou can kill him outside of mission with Milten but with him it's much easier
>>741790394DEX sorely needs some kind of crossbow shooting maces
>>741789419there are npcs related to quests that will take you to the other camps. they're the same as the old camp as in you'll have to do their quests
Is there a trader in Quentin's camp?
>>741792895pretty sure there's one right outside his room by a firespit
>>741757767HEY CHATWHAT IF GOTHICBUT WITH A RANDOMIZER MOD
I thought Santino traded with you if you had golem hearts? I killed all of Xardas' golems and he's still a cunt.
>>741793260no, he wants deed from harpy fortress
>>741793321Doesn't Lester want that, though?
>>741793260golem parts are for perma alchemy potions
>>741765597NC is exactly what the AnCap-libertarians advocate for. Free open markets, minimal to no governing body, non-violence principle, freedom to defend your self and property with as much force as necessary. Unsurprisingly this is the camp that resonated with the most pragmatic and forward thinking members of the community.
>>741793361No idea, Santine reacted when I offered and he asked how much I want for the deedmiser didn't want to spend more than 1K but threw in a key for secret passage to Gomez' dungeons
>>741793361Lester gives it to you after finding the Focus Stone, which Santino purchases from the player once he relocates from the old mine to live in OC above Fisk's house.The valley gets rekt by dragons anyway a few weeks after the first game ends anyway, so it's technically worthless to any buyer.
>>741793465>non-violence principlebut you can just beat up people and everyone is fine with that
>>741793465You know what? Fuck that. Feudalism is all these criminals deserve. Join the Old Camp and maintain the status quo!
>>741793465>non-violence principleHave you tried talking to the rice picking slaves? They're there because its picking rice or getting beat half to death by the rice lords thugs.
>>741793648Because there's it's anarchism, NC is absent from a judicial system. If another person is attacked, you aren't in anyway responsible for protecting them. If the victim wasn't able to fend for themselves they had every right to purchase security from the private sector. >>741793720As proven by the game, pure compliance doesn't move society forward. Without the misbehavior and rebellion of NC no plan to break the barrier would even be devised. Not that the Water Mages' plan would've worked - that's besides the point. What matters it that they were trying, and to be able to try they needed to breakaway from the rough authoritarianism of the OC. >>741793741I do. They reside on private land owned by the Rice Lord. Thankfully he's a peaceful man and offered employment, food and housing to felon intruders. If you don't want to work, leave, or be killed. This is why AnCap is the white man's ideology. YOU choose your fate.
>>741794107>YOU choose your fate.No I don't. I can't choose to start my own rice farms without the rice lord stopping me one way or another.
>>741794107But really, what future waits for the average criminal outside the barrier? These guys inside live like free men. Outside they are murderes, thieves and other undesirables. They have no future outside the barrier.Vote Old Camp!
i don't get why they support people trying to leave the colony. gomez, if anyone, should be slaughtering the mages. he's a major character within the barrier, why would he want to risk them getting rid of it. it's also keeping the orcs out since the king is apparently losing
Ok, Lust provocing image attached, now can someone help me because i'm worried i've fucked my build or something.It's my first time playing Gothic mind you. But basically i'm in chapter 3 where I need to speak to Diego (spoke to the black water mage guy for the focus crystals). Leveling up seems way slower, can't remember my exact level but I have 47 STR. I want to do a greatsword build, I just got the training to wield them but now it looks like I need like 60+ LP to not only get to the STR to use most of them, but to then master them (It's like 40 or 30 LP can't recall from Thorus).Am I gonna be able to use them before the last fucking chapter? I haven't even been spending LP on any magic shit, I got one training in bows and mastered lockpicking/one handed weapons. I have gotten some flavor skills it seems (climbing, even got the punching one from the UFC fighter cameo dude) and I spent some other random points (water breathing or some shit). But I just feel like i've not been dumping in STR as much as i've needed to.
>>741794376Literally nothing is stopping you from starting your own rice farm. Except your own lack of initiative. And if the Rice Lord tried to intervene or sabotage your business instead of engaging in fair competition, you'd have every right to execute him right there and then. Ancap just solves everything, which is why Joos hate it - it dissolves the purpose of government.>>741794401Hindsight taught us the New Campers almost immediately were able to find employment from Omar and become wealthy and influential members of society working as the farmers' personal militia. And they enjoyed the support of the community, because the farmers were tired of the King's paladins taxing them to death. You Old Campers are psychopaths who go insane at the first sign of trouble and execute your intellectual commonwealth (Fire Mages) and regressed to what your ideology allowed you to be: barbaric violent criminals.
>>741794817Mind you, the second the barrier goes down, the king sends his entire army.
>>741794941
>>741794817blues want out, but they are outside of Gomez' reachreds are useless but still dangerousThorus tells you a story about a Shadow who tried to murder Corristo in his sleep and they found his body scattered all over the digger camp
>>741786628If you mean visual designs, Gothic 1 especially iso ne of the ugliest games i've seen. At least Morrowind had a fuckton of alien looking designs/buildings, Gothic is generic designs but with abysmal actual graphics. Like what fucking art design does the game even have. Besides unreal engine running like cancer, the remake looks amazing in places. Just compare the swamp camps ffs
What if the blue mages kill everyone inside the barrier with their plan to explode the barrier? Nobody seems scared about the thought in game.
>>741795261>Nobody seems scared about the thought in game.Does anyone besides Xardas even realize that?
>>741794839Okay, you wasted LPs on one-handed training, unless this was patched and you do now need to master 1h before even beginning two handers. >Am I gonna be able to use them before the last fucking chapter?You could have been using them even in Ch2, perhaps even in Ch1. Clear the map more. Use scrolls to clear tough obstacles. You'll get roughly ~350 LPs in total, if you explore almost everything. Another way to get ahead is by discovering items that increase your STR. For instance, just from the amulet slot you can get +15 Str. There's enough XP in the game to become +80 in both STR, DEX, mastering both melee weapon types, as well as both ranged types. I didn't touch magic at all though. I got all the supplementary skills, trophy collecting, climbing, as well as master lockpicking and trainer pickpocketing. You didn't mess anything up, but you may have gotten the 2Handers sooner than you'd like.
>>741794987Not an argument
They difference one-handed swords and two-handed swords but the Hero uses both with both hands.
>>741795261Maybe they think it would work like creating the barrier, without initially harming people or animals.
>>741795261it's funny because I always assumed it would be a sort-of magical EMP and now in the remake they show the ore acting like regular explosives.
>>741795385Yeah it is
Carved through Quentin's camp. It was nervewracking, they were taking off a 3rd of my hp with their arrows.
>>741794941>And if the Rice Lord tried to intervene or sabotage your business instead of engaging in fair competition, you'd have every right to execute him right there and thenYeah, I'm sure I have a big chance of fighting back against the established rice lord and his band of thugs lmaoAncap just leads to violent monopolies murdering the competition because there's literally nobody to stop them
>>741795554AnCaps are secular and leave personal beliefs as personal matters, instead of being autistic fedora tipping autists. Maybe I'm getting old and the message of that image has changed, I dunno. Regardless, it's a moop point. With the knowledge of what happens in the sequel, everyone except the NC was wrong. The sleeper was a sham and half the brotherhood were simple junkies. OC's crisis management abilities were so poor it's shocking Lee didn't just liberate them sooner. Probably would have after realizing how easy it was to retake the undefended Free Mine, but the barrier was broken before he was able to launch the offensive.
>>741795745>Yeah, I'm sure I have a big chance of fighting back against the established rice lord and his band of thugs lmaoSure, you're correct. But that would mean Rice Lord himself is violating the NAP, therefore this isn't really a knock against the ancap ideology but rather an argument for it. Consider the situation for a moment and I'm sure you'll agree. Then again, you don't have to. We ancaps welcome all perspectives.
Is acrobatics 5 or 10 LP?
>>741795963>Ancap just leads to violent monopolies murdering the competition because there's literally nobody to stop themForgot to dissemble this counter-argument: This is actually the exact situation you have with established government where the state has the monopoly on force. You're actually agreeing with me here, in fact I believe we both want the precise same thing but are talking past each other.
>>741795430That's dependent on your mastery level, at no mastery Hero uses one handers with both hands because he's holding on for dear life with no idea what he's doing.
>>741796150Really? That's a neat detail.
>>741796209Brother this is probably THE mechanic Gothic is most known for. There's three different movesets for each fighting style, depending on your mastery level. Sadly magic isn't as intricate with your power growth. You simply access stronger spells, except they aren't actually even necessarily stronger unless you fix it with mods
>>741795827Why are you still calling it AnCap if you understand that Lee and the Water Mages are governing the camp? The Rice Lord is Lares' guy and Lares is Lee's guy.
>>741796342it's even better than that in the remake, because they bothered making different animations for swords, axes, maces, 2h axes and 2h swords so there's actually 10 different movesets not counting the 0 skill ones. 12 if you count orc weapons but they fucking suck. 14 if you count unarmed.
New Camp is somewhat anarchistic (and even then not completely), but what the fuck is capitalistic about it?>Everyone is going into one of three possible jobs, either you're mining to add to the ore pile, you're a bandit fighting and stealing from old campers, or you're a rice farmer and feeding the other two.>Everyone who works the mine gets a hut in the Cauldron, everyone who works the fields gets a bed in the cliffside rooms, everyone who's a bandit or merc gets a hut in the cave.>Everyone gets paid in rice and at most are given a bit of the ore once a month so they can have drinks at the tavern, but there's little to no commerce at all and barely any variety in products to purchase.If anything, they're commie af.
>>741786539Finally got around to it. Crazy that such a zone was missable, is it part of a Fire mage quest or something?Rain of Fire rune just laying there, damn.
>>741797282One of the water mages sends you on a quest there to get a rare book from temple of Innos
>>741797282One of the Water Mages asks you to go there and plunder the place once the Fire Mages get rekt.Also one of the bestiaries is about shadowbeasts and Cavalorn sends you to kill the one in front of the temple, but if you don't think to check behind the waterfall you might not realize it's there.
>>74179607610
>>741797385>>741797417Oh well guess I'll just turn in right away.
>>741772613>snapper that blended perfectly with the foliagespamming lock on works for 'invisible' enemies
Is it viable to focus on melee but still invest in mana for support spells like teletransportation and healing?
>>741800181on normal yes, on hard it might not
>>741800246I mean, most melee players invest in dex for range attacks, right? Just ignore dex and use magic as range weapon.
>>741800336yeah, you have no use of dex then, dex is only for bows, crossbows and pickpocket
>>741800181>still invest in manaYou don't really need to.You can either use rings (+15 x2) and amulet (+30) or just explore and drink all the permanent +mana potions which seems to be plentifulI am currently in chapter 2 and my max mana is 25.Never spent a point on mana leveling.Shipwreck area near loon territory is full of mana herbs and new camp mage Chronos hanging out in the center of their city above the ore pile sells +15 mana ring for ~130 ore.
>>741800336True and if you only need healing and occasional ranged, circle 2 with a few levels in mana should be enough.
>>741800515I feel like rings and amulets are more valuable for boosting defense stats, until you get later game armor at least
>>741796501They're not governing the camp. Is English your mother tongue? As argued above: "Nobody reacts in NC if a fight happens." There's no taxes. No forced labor. Every man for themselves, as several NPCs say. Lee and the mages are busy with their own goals, they could care less who shanks who as long as the ore pile and the mine remains in their control.
>>741800638Me too, so I usually only use one +15 ring, rest is for special occasions.That was just an example how much you can get without spending LP.Also with +15 and fire bolt rune from Torrez you can shoot for a long time and easily wipe out small wolf packs, blood fly packs, goblins etc.Besides really powerful beasts it's just about your stock of mana refills.
>>741800638Problem with magic above novice is that you need to spend a lot of points for prerequisites you won't even use.5 LP - Novice10 LP Alchemy10 LP Scroll writing can't become red/blue wizard without learning these two10 LP circle 115 LP circle 220 LP circle 325 LP circle 430 LP circle 540 LP circle 6
>>741801210Absolutely true and I did forget a few costs, that being said, Alchemy pays for itself not just normal potions but also stat boosting ones. You can also skip Scroll writing if you do to weed camp, Cadar just teaches you directly.
>>741800878Why don't you just play the game instead of spouting your retarded shit, you dumb faggot? Silas, a Merc, gets disappeared when you prove that he killed a thieving farmer in his own tavern. And if you actually tried to shank someone in the camp before shitting up the thread, you could have quickly found out.
>>741801461the Caveat about the swamp magic is that they don't have Circle 5 and Xardas won't teach you Circle 6 without it.
>>741801569True but in this example anon wanted to go ungabunga swordsman with a bit of magic healing on the side.
got fall of avalon on sale and quit after 5 hourshoping to try gothic remake on sale next year
>>741801640oh yea. carry on then
Which ground animal is the fastest? Is the transformed Scavenger as fast as the mount?
>>741801461>Alchemy pays for itself not just normal potions but also stat boosting ones.Yeah, it always hurts to learn this for unga bunga guy just to brew few +STR potions from golem remains though extra healing flasks are nice to have.I wish there was a mechanic where you could pay expert (alchemist, blacksmith, scroll writer) to make shit for you.You'd still need to provide all the ingredients/inscriptions/blueprints and pay for his services.
>>741801210Ufff that's a lot of LP for nothing.
>>741801963and there's still no LP cost for +max mana
>>741801875That does sound like a great idea and in G2 a Fire Mage called Neoras in the Innos Cloister does exactly that for you. In the remake only Riordian could do the same unfortunately the devs gave him down syndrom.
>It's not about the ending but about the journey>>PS: Mind the skeletons.leli am not even mad they made me run in circle
Bro why does it take 20 LP for lockpicking 2 bro what the fuck?
>>741803059you gotta commit if you want those pots and pans
>>741801556I've probably played all three games (g1/g2¬r/archolos) for over 1k hours in total you retarded fucking homo. You tourists are the ones discovering the game for the first time, us vets are here only to verify and evaluate the remake. Silas was cutting a backroom deal and stealing valuables from the Rice Lord, did you even unlock the stash or are you too retarded to lockpick? >And if you actually tried to shank someone in the camp before shitting up the thread, you could have quickly found out.They choose to protect each other just like any primarily white neighborhood chooses to protect each other. Look at farmers in South America. Don't reply to me further, brownoid.
>>741803091Bro level 3 and 4 locks are still a pain in the arse
>>741803412How many more threads are needed to establish this? Once you've spent 30 LP total into lockpicking, you're morally fully allowed to F6 every lock in the game and enjoy good pacing, while still fully having beat the game. This is the final PSA I'm personally bothering to put out.
>>741803613that's just like, your opinion, man
>>741803675Yeah go ahead and spend 10 minutes to pocket that 20 ore and 2 wooden spoon, master lockpicker-kun. I couldn't give a fuck honestly.
>>741803613Okay, Digger. Put the knife down.
A golem workshop. Neat. Missed it the 1st time around.
>35 str>lvl 2 1handedpray for me lads. dex was a mistake.
>>741803975>35 str
>>741803975Bows are really strong though
>>741803146Accepting your concession, cocksucker. Got owned by another anon for claiming that the NC was capitalistic. Now backtracking and admitting that shanking people has consequences, and that Lee and Lares can't be crossed. When you find out that Lee is considering purging the Bandits' entire break-off faction, you are going to cry. Nigger.
>>741803146>>741804547Get a room lovebirds.
>>741803613I'm autosolving every lock with no lockpicking skill, no fucks given.I could savescum all of them, I just save the time.
What does increase the amount of damage you can block? Is it strength? The weapon damage itself?
The fight itself could have been a bit better but the Sleeper's new design is kino
>>741805306It's already a hundred times better than the original, I don't know what more you want
>>741803975on my very first run I really wanted to be a water mage not knowing how to get there or that turning into a fire mage would have been so much easier, so I became a merc and put the absolute minimum points until halfway into the game. Orc cemetery was an interesting experience like that.
>>741805306Original sleeper had the 2000 graphics problem where you couldn't even make out whats it supposed to beAs a kid my head canon was the sleeper actually being just the god of minecrawlers - aligned with the swamp nerds consuming the lurker juice. The idea of orcs worshipping one giant bug and calling it a god was also kinda funny
>>741805819NTA but I wish the Sleeper had a more active role in the fight. Even something like an animation when he casts you into the nightmare instead of it just fading to black. The model is really good but it's kinda wasted just wriggling in the background. It'd be cool if the head was following you while you're in the chamber.
>>741806520That's because he's sleeping you dingus.
>>741806617he seems pretty active for an asleep guy. isn't he waking up by the time you reach him?
>do the syra quest>follow bullit outside of the camp>talk to him and attack him>he repeatedly beats my ass>had enough of reloading and just attack him without talking first>he has a drunk debuff and fights without 1h skillI guess talking to him sobers him up
So am I just stuck with this quest perma now? The one from act one, I got involved in the raid, just trying to maximize all the quests for xp etc before picking the Old Camp, did the raid (but didn't turn the quest in obviously as that gets you into the New Camp) and now this quest is hardstuck and the carriage we ransacked is stuck in the road still in chapter 3 (can't even use my mount anywhere near it because it will despawn and not answer my calls because the mount apparently is programmed to despawn in scripted areas like that one)
>>741807562At some point it'll just fail and you'll be free of it, dunno if chapter 4 or later. I got the swampweed collection quest stuck there too because I sold it in New Camp and eventually it just went away.
>>741807562Yeah, I am in the same situation, chapter 5 and The Raid quest is still open in my log.
holy moly
>>741808017>Enlightenment ringYou looted Y'berion's chest?
>>741808017>>741808131that's on top of the old citadel, right?
>>741808131No it's the chest on top of the fortress, it has the key to the chest with the royal guard armor (which is worse than my merc armor).
treating the game like a live service testbed and constantly breathing down its neck with """balance patches"""" influenced by youtube infomercials (op armor! op sword! get op fast!!!) is the worst possible outcome the gothic franchise could have foreseen all it's missing is a cash shop for paid cosmetics
>>741808367Crimson Desert thread is that way ->
>>741808607huh?
>>741808661Could you list 5 of those """balance patches"""" we're being so constantly exposed to you fucking drama queen?
Beat it just now, was a good time. I liked dipping into magic a bit cause that heal rune really came in handy. Think ill go play risen or elex next.
>>741808850sure>removal of weedfall>arbitrarily removing weapons and armor from the map>magic being trapped on a rollercoaster of nerfing, buffing, nerfing, buffing>needlessly fiddling with values of monster and human health and damage>dartboarding random "exploits" that were famous in the original game for "balance reasons">(bonus 6th: absolutely fucking awful ~spooky filter~ thrown onto xardas' demon and other characters to make them sound retarded and incomprehensible for no reason)it's a gaggle of interns jiggling decimals around to fit a quota to justify a paycheck and it's fucking annoying, every modern game falls into this trap for some reason
>>741757767Just completely genocided old camp and killed Gomez in chapter 5. I feel great!
>>741809135I asked for 5 patches since you were spewing bullshit about constant stream of them you fucking imbecile.Now you're trying to bullshit your way out if this by listing a couple of changes from 2 patches max.Why pretend to be half illiterate retard?For (you)'s?Also stop lying about shit like armor.It's all there where it was.What they changed is you can't just take key from Gomez for his ore armor chest in chapter 1.Magic was fucked one time while everyone claimed it's bug, then fixed.If you're going to claim this happened multiple times in succession provide proof.>weedfallYeah, what an epic mechanic.>dartboarding random "exploits" that were famous in the original game for "balance reasons"Irrelevant bullshit no one cares about.Put up or shut up retard and don't try to weasel out of your idiotic claims next time.
>>741810013you never wanted fair discourse to begin with lolsure ya you win, super epic cool game woo hoo
>>741808131You didn't? He and his butt buddy just stood and watched as I emptied all the chests in the temple right after they invited me in.
Is crossbow training worth it? Is it fast enough to match the bow at the highest level?
This is so fucking braindead. I don't know if I have the strength to finish this hardcore playthrough. Swords and Sorcery run was much more fun.
lmao
>>741813716>DIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>741813857COME BACK HERE FAGGOT
>>741813951You overlevelled for him and fucked yourself over.lmao
>>741813951d-did Gothic 1 always look so.... barren?
>>741804547He literally implores the player to seek a non-violent peaceful solution to the issue of losing recruits. You haven't played the game or are too brown to keep up with the complex topic.
>>741814927yeah but I think it's clean and well readable. And I like that the UI is as minimal as possible which does wonders for immersionOn that note I have a nitpick that the remake shows the name of the person speaking during dialogue, the original didn't do that which is also more immersive
>>741805819maybe not 50 arms sprouting from the ground forcing you to run around
What's better between this and the -15 edge + - 15 blunt amulet?I already have a -15 edge/blunt and -10 edge/blunt rings if it matters.
can any anon upload the francis louis patreon nude mod :D
>>741786045>gomez does the funnykek>mercs attack you for no reasonlmao so they took the Gorn bug and applied it to the entire camp
>>741813614there's a reason spears, bow and arrow and then crossbow are the three points where humans won the arms race against the everyone else>>741813716>>741813857>>741813951this was the moment the english VA was so bad it became funnythen soon after Y'Berion having a texas preacher voice was the cherry on top, I was laughing so hard during the otherwise somber Sleeper cutscene
>>741808945i regret saving money for heal rune, you better eat some stew for better healing, unless you have higher magic circle the healing suck donkey dick
>>741794839From my experience so far:barehands fighting: meme skill, you better get 2h ASAP and pump strength for unga bungaHunting skill: fucking joke and waste of LPClimbing: Essential since it's give more room for exploration and sometimes safe routeDiving: Important if you're not using lockpicking solution for underwater chestLockpicking: Get trained and get lockpicking solution mod from nexusDo leveling up bow and dex worth it? There's the troll surrounded by goblins and i think i need to kill the goblins first to safely kill the troll
Just left the sleeper temple, how the fuck am i supposed to kill gomez when he takes no damage from me?
I'm about 10 hours in and getting my ass handed to me by anything above scavengers. Getting tired of having to evade 80% of fights. How do I get OP quick?
>>741820574Pump your main stats (str/dex) you only need to be trained in 1 handed now, get acrobatic ASAP and learn enemy attack pattern because there's the point where they get "tired" and stand to "catch breath" and that's when you swing your blade. High strength also add extra power to overhead swing that can downed adult scavengers and wolves, dodge their attack and measure your distance so your overhead slash will meet their head.
>>741816708Always the defenses. Both will buff your tankiness, but the health will come with the side effect that all of your healing will be less effective as you need more of it to top off.
>>741821149Thanks fella. Will I be able to get by with melee alone or will I be at a disadvantage if I don't spec into archery/magic?
I have bought this game on a whim without playing the originalWhat am i in for
>clear basically entire map before killing the crawler queen in chapter 2>now in chapter 4 and been just walking around in an empty fucking mapbruh
>>741787708artistically this remake is a catastrophy
>>741822984on one hand I wish more animals respawned between acts but on the other you can very easily overlevel at least at Gothic difficulty
>>741814927as a zoomer you cant see how your imagination unified that presentation its actually the UE environments that look extremelly artificial with all that asset and texture overload. try to go to a real forest once in your life.
>>741821850No quest markersNo level scaling, if you get owned you are not supposed to be there yet (most of the time)Don't play on hard unless you enjoy quickloading every 2 minutesThere are very few good guys within the barrier, get ready to be bullied and scammed
Is completing all the quests for each camp in act 1 before joining a camp just for the exp or will I be locked out of something if I don't complete them?I'm almost level 12 in act 1 and don't really need the exp
>>741824000Only in ch2, but there's mod for that but it works as a magic button and it's author said it will be improved to be seamless instead button press
>>741821826For now im str-maxxing with some dex added later for bows. in ch1 quickly take one of the baal offer in old camp to escort you to swamp camp, if you're lucky you'll encounter wolves and HE WILL kill it for you, loot the wolf for the teeth and find torrez and do his quest ASAP and PICK FIREBOLT rune instead healing. With firebolt you can kill everything around the camps easily except few enemies like lurker, orc dogs, and snapper (they need more str + better weapon invesment)
>>741825401Sounds good for more playthroughsI finished the remake on Sunday without any patches (pirated) and now I'm just waiting for more patches to buy the game and play again, this time as a Swamp DiggaFirst playthrough had to be the classic Old Camp way
