I have yet to see a game that has a better atmosphere than this one
>>12047195Literally any Elder Scrolls including Daggerfall
>>12047197Nah
>>12047195gothic 1 and 2 are some of the best games ever made, not just crpgs. The burger audience and journos will never ever admit this because they missed out on it when it came out and it puts to shame 99,99% of games put out there.
>>12047195gothic 1 is the definition of SOVL, but I think you can compare its atmosphere to Morrowind's
Don't forget Myrtana, the fan mod is also pretty good
>>12047197Daggerfall is like a fever dream and arena even moreso. I'd say rune viking warlord would be similar to Gothic vibes
>>12047195Gothic 2.
>>12047774>he isn't fever dream maxingngmi
>>12047593It blows my mind how immersive and realistic the atmosphere is. I really felt like I was in the game and living in a society. Items don't despawn, NPCs can be permanently killed (unless vital for story progress), monsters don't respawn unless there is a new chapter. You can claim some building as your own and drop your stuff there and simply larp like you live there. People have their routines and even eat and drink and talk to each other.The other anon is right, only Morrowind would be similar, because the item there also never despawn, but Gothic is still one step ahead.
What's the best way to play Gothic 1?
>>12048294I am tho. I modded my character sheet in arena to go even further beyond.
>>12048305Any screenshots you want to share?
>>12048301And also the fact that EVERY NPCs has items on him. This allows for some really evil shit. You can sell a trader tons of stuff (that you stole from chests), then knock him out and take back the 300 gold that you gave him, then cast a spell which makes him like you again, stuff like that. The game encourages you to come up with your own ideas. It's simply a masterpiece.
It's weird that kids compare this game to Morrowind so often now. I guess it's the visuals and the release date, but they are completely different kinds of games.
>>12048616I think a lot of people tend to blob their launch dates together, even though Morrowind was released a year later. Gothic was contemporary with Wizardry 8.
>>12047195is it worth playing on switch
>>12048303its best played on switch

>>12049953So few games do rain well. TES particularly enrages me that they used cell-based indoor regions and they can't sync weather between zoning. So it's raining outside, you go inside and no different lighting/sound effects. Walk back outside and the rain is totally gone and it's perfectly sunny and dry. Mods have attempted to solve this problem and of course the Toddengines are so inherently bad even they can't quite sync up that level of data.
>>12047197I kneel
>>12051363samefag tastelet
>>12048797>>12049030maybe if you have nothing else, which is understandable
>>12051816>n-no i'm not samefag i'm a totally different drooling fucking idiot who plays tesfeces and defends garbage games for retardsLet's not embarrass ourselves any further, shall we? You literally play fucking tesshit and think it's "epic" and post "i kneel" for mass cosumer slop. You will never have an opinion that matters.
>>12051831I suppose you're right, disregard that I suck cocks
>>12049640>>12048616They have a similar vibe you fucking idiots
