Unbelievable bugs

As many of the reviewers of this game have mentioned, the story and gameplay of gothic 2 is outstanding. However, the bugs and crashes that occur with this game are as bad as they get. If you have ever played "Temple of Elemental Evil" and screamed at all the hours you wasted when the game crashed, you have a small taste of what you are in for in gothic 2. These are not subtle crashes, either. These are shut-down-your-computer bugs. Worst of all, there is NO english language patch available. I would never consider buying another game from JoWood studios again if this is how they support their products.

one of my favourite rpg

this game is all about atmosphere and it does the best job when compared to others. other rpgs might have better graphics or controls in combat but this game is the one that you wont forget. and of course if you are too lazy to give the game a chance and you are really into fast paced games that u finish in two days then you wont like this game and you shouldn't be playing rpgs.

Great Game

If your looking for an amazingly interactive game then this is it. Its fun, wonderfully intertwined, and no matter what you do in it the story will turn out all right. If I was pressed to think of a down side it would be that the game gets slightly too easy towards the end, it starts off challenging in that almost anything can kill you, but by the end even the last final "boss" is killable in a matter of seconds. Still, it's a good game. Note: don't be frightened by the "only for advanced players" remark at joining the Fire Mages, its just as fun with them.

Hidden gem, considerable depth, unique aspects, adult themes

One of the best RPGs that virtually nobody played. One of those games that you will not get until you put a considerable amount of time in to it, sort of like a science fiction book that takes a 100 pages before you get it and then you don't want it to end, that is what Gothic II is like. To think you can get this game for the price of a fast food meal. It is an amazing value! Graphically the game is a little dated but in no time you won't even notice the outdated graphics. Highly recommended!

TRASH

This game sucks Big Time!

I have played tons of RPG's, and I never put down a game unless it absolutely deserves it and this one certainly does.

As many stated already, the controls are horrible. You have to like push the up arrow key and then click the left mouse botton while trying to keep yourself in line with the enemie(s) to even stike a blow, and God forbid you have more than one enemy after you at a time.

The graphics, sound and realism is nice but what good is that if you cannot fight your enemies effectively.

Honestly, I think any game is better than this garbage dump.

Save your cash and pass on this one.

Pretty Good

This has to be the best game I've seen since Morrowind III. I have to give kudos to the developers for the excellent graphics & sound. However, the game is not THAT addictive, and the plot is a bit cliche'. Also, the lack of turn-based fighting drives me up the wall. Still, it's pretty darn good.

Worst Controls Ever

I've played dozens of PC and console graphical RPGs, and this one has the absolute worst graphical interface I've ever seen. I bought it because of the good reviews, but shortly after installing , I quit struggling with the controls that aren't logical, don't make good use of the mouse and create a feeling of motion sickness from the bobbing screen views and uninstalled it in disgust. What a waste. Doesn't matter how great the content is if you can't play it effectively.

Not bad, diverting

I got this after I picked up Gothic on sale and found it was playable.

Gothic 2 is better, a bit plodding sometimes but you generally get your money's worth.

My computer, a 1.4 Ghz Dell, .75 Gigs mem running W2K with a 32MB GeForce would freeze on occasion, the only cure being a reboot.

Even so, the game design is good, graphics are interesting. But I found the ending a tad disappointing.

Too short

The game is great, i enjoyed it very much but its way too short, i played for like a week( and i was takeing my time) and i finished with no problem....at the beginning its very hard so its a littly stupid cause you have to save it every min. because you may die. But overall i will give 5 stars for a game. ...
