Gothic Chronicles Of Myrtana: Archolos mod for Gothic 2

[Justicar]

The worst quest so far is the one where you talk with some ghost in a tower that wants you to find 4 confession letters. Loved how i decided to check the how it works and got to the place where a letter should be,but it was not there,then i read the previous one and when i clicked rmb the new one got spawned before me eyes. Every quest objective spawns once you had taken the quest or triggered certain trigger. Also that phantom quest is not worth it,you run all around the world on a fetch quest and end up with 2k exp and some shitty scrolls,just sad fetch quest.

Nigger this quest works just like the quest in Gothic 1 where you collect diary entries they dont spawn until you read them.

Nameless hero is far from chad he is more of a cuck getting ordered by Xardas and doing all his work for him for 2 whole games just to get played again by Xardas at the end of Gothic 2.

Getting ordered by one of the if not the most powerful mage ever that can build a tower overnight and command hordes of demons vs getting ordered by

Spoiler

a sad clown and Robar II colsplayer like Gomez

and getting played by everyone in Archolos. Marvin is too much of a stooge.

Plus Xardas played everyone even Beliar. You can always off him in G3. But i personally think he is cool.

I've heard that once the mage gets geyser rune it's pretty much game over

Whoever said that wasn't lying. I've got the rune and tried it out on undead paladins, fire lizards, skeleton mages, undead shadowbeasts, dragon snappers and other things, it easily destroys everything. I think I'll do a clean up around Vardhal once I get the water mage jewelry set.

Do you know what you have to do

Spoiler

if you want Scumbag Haven to surrender peacefully in CH5? I had to fight Cortez and a bunch of his goons on arena and the guards and mercs finished off the rest of the trash outside.

Spoiler

I think it's just a case of picking the right dialogue options after you fight Cortez in the arena. Everyone immediately surrendered in my case.

I've tried but i guess your decisions in Ch3 matter too, because i just counldn't make them surrender.

Xardas doesent do anything in the games he just sends nameless cuck to do his work. When he tried to fight the sleeper he got put into his place so he is not that powerful.

Ive read that you can take that skeleton Fane for this quest

Ive read that you can take that skeleton Fane for this quest

Only if you dont kill him before that you can also take Big ben if you spare his life. Btw the beast of Silbach side quest in chapter 4 has a hidden ending where you learn the truth behind it all. I didnt dig hard enough and got bad ending for it.

Can you take?

Turdfinder twice as played among my "friends"... it seems my friends-list needs a purge.

This is a great example, actually. Doing it literally any other way would just mean the quest items get found and lost/thrown away 60 hours before anybody starts that quest in 99% of cases. The way they did it is just straightforwardly smarter from a game design perspective. Simulationist design is fucking retarded.

Also, that quest is a reference to the gothic 1 quest "Chromanin" that worked exactly the same way.

Lol people who throw away named unique items are idiots, it's a Gothic game, items have zero weight.

Having to restart Morrowind when I first played it almost 20 years ago because I stole an expensive book and sold it to some merchant in the middle of nowhere, only to find out 5 main quests later that I need this book, is one of my favorite gaming memories.

It also caused me to become an obsessive-compulsive hoarder

If you find a goddamn confession letter and think "Eeeh I'll toss this" instead of "Interesting, I'll keep it in case it comes in useful later!" you don't deserve to finish the quest.

I'm more concerned about the two guys playing Idle Champions...

Same, I got a negative slide for that quest at the end. Another reason I'm itching to replay.

I thought some of the NPC reactions were suspicious when I was completing the quest.

Im gonna replay this for sure in a couple of months joining the mercenary guild and using mage build. I also fucked up the vineyard quest and got bad ending for that, never found Kurt and destroyed the pirate base so I have many different choices to make there are is also fair amount of faction exclusive quests so this warrants a replay. Gonna wait though this game is like 2 times bigger than Gothic 2 and I still have other games to finish.

What do items with "essence" do when you collect them? I have found several essence of healings and mana.

 

[Marat]

You can ask Fane to come with you but once he gets there Riordian mistakes him for a hostile and ends him.

Holy shit, is this a legitimate question? It's potions that restore either health or mana, read as "health potion" or "mana potion".

Essences are the weakest, extracts are of medium strength, elixirs are second best and pure potions are the best.

It literally tells you in the item description when you browse your inventory.

Is there any outcome for the Golden Innoses quest that doesn't end in the Fire Mages saying "No we're not interested in your investigation, the merchants can keep selling them."

How did you even get this quest? I played for 90h and never heard of it. Which chapter? who is th quest giver?

Talk with a paladin who walks near main temple of Innos in the city.

Nah, there's a followup quest in ch5 that resolves it, sort of.

Chapter 3, talk to the paladin who already complained about the sale of Innos statues in chapter 2. He will give you a quest to investigate the traders in chapter 3.

What I really, really like about this game is how much new stuff there is, not even in each chapter, sometimes just a couple of days later you get a follow-up quest resulting from a previous one. Or some new NPC spawned in town who gives you a tiny unmarked quest: a fish seller selling you rotten fish, later a woman approaches you and tells you she also got scammed by the same guy. A game master who wants you to play a shell game with you but then just takes your gold and runs away, calling you a loser. A woman who says her husband hates her cooking and wants you to try her soup to get a second opinion, and when you eat it you have to puke... she concludes her cooking really is that bad and gives you the soup's recipe because you probably have more use for it than her.

There's so many little details that make the world feel alive. Absolute top notch.
