Yeah, I specifically made a comment about using current-day shitty memes in dialogue of a medieval game. To an extent I might be able to overlook a lot of the horrendous flaws but I doubt they are going to change the degenerate QTE combat system. And combat is at the core of Gothic games.

combat is at the core of Gothic games.

The world is the core, but yes, combat is one of the most important pillars in making the world feel like a living breathing world . They can fix everything. Take out this BS memes, take out the ultra heroic starting cutscenes, make the new MC like the old MC, if i a wolf can survive be impaled by 20 crossbow bolts and you need to spend 50 minutes fighting every pack of wolves in the world and feel no danger because you can insta teleport food/health potions into my belly, the game will suck.

This reimagination of G1 is like JJs new Star Wars or the Ghostbusters girly movie. Absolutely no understanding of what made the originals good and unique. It's like they don't get it at all.

I doubt that combat system is going to remain if they go ahead with the remake. Thankfully, the reaction to it has been overwhelmingly negative from what I've seen.

Hmmm it seems that it could be a good game,but not a good gothic. The combat looks really bad.

Where have you been bro? Crawl out from under that rock and start downloading.

 

[sullynathan]

wait, is that For Honor combat?

The combat is awful, and so is the dialogue system. Outside of that, I didn't think it was completely terrible.

For Honor combat is like the most random thing ever. OP, put steam link

You forgot the terrible intro rather than being just dropped into the Colony and allowed to explore from the get-go. The cringe-worthy writing. The 'bunny-hop' jumping versus ability to properly climb. Invisible walls. Flags on loot on the ground.

Should I go on?

Sully, you lazy dumbfuck, go to Steam, type Gothic in search.

 

[Dawkinsfan69]

Uhm.. Why did this piece of shit eurotrash game show up in my steam library?

I didn't ask for this

 

[Cryomancer]

Anyone who finished the game has a link to the survey?

 

[Junmarko]

Ugh. All Gothic 1 and 2 need is a remaster, Gothic 3 needs the damn remake lol

So does it has a character creation system?

Also from the picture of its steam page the dialogue system is completely shit.

it's Gothic.
Piranha bytes games never featured chargen.

So does it has a character creation system?

Why would it? It's Gothic.

I know the original game didn't have one, but it's a remake by a different studio so I'm not sure about it.

 

[Black]

it's Gothic.

Is it tho

no, it's not gothic. this doesn't have some of the key ingredients that PB applies to their games

A amazing review of the teaser

To be honest, of all the things one could complain about this demo, "it's too shiny and bright" may very well be one of the stupidest.

Anyway, I gave the demo a second run from the start. Ifi n some areas I'm somewhat willing to soft my position a bit, on two specific points I'm even more adamant in this second run:
1- The need to remove and/or make a lot of cutscene shorter (and of course skippable)
2- EVERY SINGLE CHARACTER NEEDS TO TALK A LOT LESS. And I mean like "one third of the word count, top". Holy shit, they are annoying to listen.
