      Hi! Thank you very much for the comment. I am afraid I have not played nearly enough rpg-s to have a comprehensive understanding about the genre's development, but the idea definitely sounds interesting, and it fits well into my channel's profile. In any case, I will keep this idea in mind, who knows how my channel (and my free time) will develop in the future...

    It's really interesting how Gothic even managed to be as successful as it was, especially since the gameplay elements you described were secondary to the development at best. Nearing release the attitude at PB Studio was more or less a "let's just smash everything that works together and hope for the best" since the publisher was getting annoyed and the tec itself became slowly outdated. The only game that comes close in comparison to Gothic in my opinon is Shadow of Chernobyl, an overambitious and costly game stuck in development hell which had to cut about 50% of content and yet still became an instant cult classic.

    It is crazy how immersive this game is, even to nowadays standarts. I know that there was a Witcher 3 Trailer that promissed me a functional ecosystem, with small critters at the low end of the spectrum and apex predators at the top. Of course there was never one. Gothic at least had some kind of ecosystem, with Scavangers hunting Bloodflys, Wolfs hunting Scavangers, Goblins, who loves to eat Fish, so they were found at Rivers, where there were Lurkers who loves to eat Goblins. Shadowbeasts who will only be awake in the night and so on. Really immersive shit for some game of 99/2001 release. And this is but one reason, why Gothic I even to this day really stands out. The only game I have played, that really mastered that ecosystem feeling was Stalker with it's "A-life"-System, that let other NPCs more or less freely roam the zone, so you will have different encounters each time you travel to places across the zone. Same goes for the NPCs. In Gothic I eventhough limited, every NPC followed their daily routines, for example in the morning they would work on their hut but in the evening they drink beer at a campfire. In Witcher 3 all the NPCs were doing the same stuff over and over, for all eternity, beeing like a set stage from some theatrical play and only for this one purpose day and night. For me, this was only mastered just "recently" by RedDeadRedemption2.

    Was there any point in adding a script for buoyancy if the ship doesn’t react even a millimeter to water and waves? Of course, I understand that the ship is large, but it does not react to changes at all, but only stays at the same level, as without this physics of buoyancy.

      Are you testing it yourself or looking at the video? If testing: in this video I was using a beta Unity build, the script I have used here might not work in the release version. If you are watching the video: it does have an effect, believe me. It is not that realistic, but still better if I was not using the script at all. Watch the section from 11:21.

I have been trying for a long time but I can't do it. by the fact that if you add control and an engine, a similar script with one buoyancy point makes the ship do somersaults in all directions.

    Always thought the Gothic formula was perfect for smaller studios too. A compact world, carefully crafted with meaningful content seems much easier to deal with a limited budget than huge open worlds filled with cities and dungeons. Nowadays there are some indie studios that put AAA studios to shame, i'm sure they could do something wonderful with it. Too bad most people's reference is still the Elder Scrolls series, but we'll see. Can't wait for the remake to see how it goes and if it has any impact.

      That's my thoughts as well. I've been playing around with procedural generation for a few weeks in unreal but came to the same conclusion, small but dense worlds are much more interesting and enjoyable, procedural generation is best left to handle unimportant visuals like foliage placement.

    As a fellow wannabe solo RPG developer (I love that you phrased it that way, lmao), just leaving a comment to say this is criminally underrated! Sadly most of this was common sense to me, but your presentation and unique perspective definitely make the video entertaining *and* educational, so just doing my part to help push the video out to a wider audiance that needs to hear this! Also don't doubt yourself so much! With all the tools available, *especially* in Unreal, and your much less ambitious goal than myself, I'm sure you'll finish your game as long as you have the drive to!

    "Quality > quantity". Yes, you nailed it. Not many games get this right, especially modern ones with high budget. I don't need an enormous map. I need map with good stuff in it.
