To your knowledge CD-PROJECT Red while creating Witcher series the main inspiration was Gothic exacly. Thats what they COE said. Games is pretty popular in Poland and i felt Gothic vibe while i was playing Witcher 3. Souls series also has somenthing from Gothic series
All dislikes are from players who still don't know
how to pick up items XD
Haha 🤣
hahaha I had to look it up
Phahahaha the reason i quit the game when i was like 11 and came back older
Yeah I also had to google it, but after learning controls I gotta say... I will never touch Skyrim again, I always wanted to play Gothic at least once and now I'm finally doing it, and playing it in 2021 with no nostalgia whatsoever I can say, it is a timeless masterpiece.
@@zsrlmsb2470 I always thought Skyrim was good, but incredibly overrated. It downgraded the already downgraded rpg mechanics of Oblivion and made a less varied map. It barely worked at lauch and still is full of problems. And there is very little actual choise in how you finnish the game
Yet another love letter to Gothic. Always warms my heart.
Thanks :)
Still playing Gothic 1+2 and Morrowind to this day!
Gothic series, Evil Island, Arcanum. Still the best RPG in the world for me.
Temple of Elemental Evil is pretty good if you haven't tried it
Did gothic come out on a console?
Creators of Witcher are always mentioning that their games were inspired by Gothic :)
Yes, great to see how the legacy lives on.
In fact I think Witcher (2 and 3) are basically evolutions of Gothic.
Where do they that?
@@OfficialBizkit The countries where Gothic is most popular are Germany, Poland and Russia. In Poland, almost every gamer, at least RPG player, will know Gothic or has played it. It has an awesome Polish language version that is on par with the German original (in my opinion, having played it in both versions).
@@Domipager It has a large following in the UK also. The only official languages covered by Piranha Bytes were German and English, and while the US market was intended it never got much further than the UK, but we did pick it up there. I got my copy in 2002 when it got the UK release, no fanfare or marketing, I stumbled upon it in the shops but it has enough of a retail release that word got out.
Gothic 2, 3 & 4, Risen 1, 2 and 3 all got a retail pass due to Gothic and sold well in the UK to loyal customers such as myself, though the lacklustre quality at release of many of these titles hurt them. I bought them anyway Elex was the first Piranha Bytes game to get major attention in the US, as most RPG gamers over there had heard of Gothic by then, mostly as an answer to 'what do I play after running out of mods fro Skyrim? However Elex was also flawed, its a great game masquerading as a poor one and most reviewers didnt bother spending enough time on it to find out what the game was all about before giving it bad reviews.
Can we say German engineering at its finest in this case?
I guess so :D
A shining outcome of German Polish cooperation! #strongertogether
Definitely not. From the engineering point of view the game was not good. Lot's of bugs (for me it felt like ages before there was a bug free version) and awful loading times.
What makes Gothic and especially Gothic 2 with it's addon one of the best games I ever played are the points that Merlin analysed quiet good in this video.
Btw. CD Project developers once said that gothic was the game that inspired them the most for witcher 3
Yess yess you can
@@PeterLE2 No! No! No!
If game is playable 15 years after release that means it's great game. If 15y old game is more enyoable then 50% of new releases that means it's masterpiece.
@@amsi6980 I haven't played it in a few years. Why would you say it is unplayable? I think I only installed a user made mod with a few bugfixes but other than that I played it exactly like it was back in the day.
@@amsi6980 Completed the game a dozen of times back in 2006. No mods whatsoever just plain old Gothic. Yes I died countless times, Had to save a lot and when I forgot to save for half an hour or more was extremely punishing. But it was also a really extremely rewarding feeling once you acomplished something in it
@@amsi6980 it all depends on your OS and such, my game only experienced one common bug - tried to load non existent textures that crashes my game.
It took me a mere 5 minutes to find and download a FREE mod to fix it easily. Dont complain about a non-existent problem. Some mods are even an all-in-one bug fixes...its not hard finding mods specific for the problems you are experiencing, ESPECIALLY now since the game has been up for so long.
edit: the game is playable, but not on modern computers, unless you spend a mere 5 to 10 mins downloading bug fix mods. Unless you been downloading individual mods and not mod packs, then im not surprised you find it a problem.
@Regeneration 19 i know everything about gothic 1 and 2, spent hundred of hours in them, I think i know how hard the games are but on the other hand once you know everything , it's not as hard anymore. Enjoyable none the less
@Regeneration 21 I thought the same I might play it never again and now I'm playing it again😂
trust me this game is way better than it seems i replayed it so many times
True dat! The replayability of Gothic 1 and 2 is fantastic!
Did u use any mods or just the classic version
I finished it today for 15 time and I'll do it again!!
I'm playing this game since I was 4. It's so beautifull. Perfect story and one of the best gameplay ever! It's so sad that jowood destroyed gothic 3 and made their DLC and game. Pirania is in my heart!
i really miss the old gothic series ... the atmosphere, the dialogues, the music the alternative ways to play it ... so sad modern games have good graphics but really miss whats important.
That's what I was trying to tell some of my friends. What is the most important part of a game. Is it the grafic or the possibilities to travel or how to spend your skill points? Maybe that is the 2nd part.
But the soul is how the atmosphere, NPCs, locations and sounds are presented to you. How the music and dialogues are written. Every named NPCs is unique and every location is telling a story.
Every game is nothing without anything what is in gothic to find what makes it worthy to play.
The soul of a game !
Gothic 1 + 2 best games ever made
is gothic three worth playing? I might pick them all up on Gog
@@yobro6053 it's not as good as g1&2, but it's a very good game IMO if you are a fan of the series. also the soundtrack is incredible. Stay away from "forsaken gods" and gothic 4 though, they are broken and rushed together games, they're not even made by piranha bytes
@@yobro6053 yes, if you really like gothic 1 and 2, you'll like gothic 3
@@yobro6053 gothic 3 is very good still, not as good as the previous, but still beats ~20% of todays RPGs. Its still worth playing as a fan.
If you like gothic 1 and 2 you will hate gothic 3 even with community mod. I'ts the worst gothic.
It feels like technology got worst or something. I don't understand how this game has so many features that they can't add in today's games. It's ridiculous.
You're absolutely right.
Thats because they have made this gave with heart,passion and devotion to rpg fans.
well it's weird to me that you say this because i really enjoyed the gothic series, dungeon siege, torchlight, diablo and fable: the lost chapters and i still enjoyed fallout 4 and skyrim very much just taking each game for what it is and trying to make the best of it
I grew up with games like Gothic 1 + 2 and Morrowind and i love them even today. But I disagree with you, for me Skyrim is also a very good RPG, sure you can just rush through the main story and call it a disappointment, but there is alot more to it. In my first playthrough i had like 100 hours of gameplay without even doing 1/10 of the main story. Saying that game is not an RPG is simply not fair.
the people making this game probably slaved away for half a decade before this came out.
The game that gets you into gaming.
Absolutely.
I started with Gothic 2, which i think is the best in the series and man that was such a strong game. Still sucks me in more than each other game. The atmosphere is so intense
A.G. Never played it but i don't regret it for me it is not SO great lolz all of the comms are like "gothic is the best no games like that are made these days" you were in the box with computer and a gothic to play in my eyes
It actaully did get me into gaming 😁 Bought gothic 1, 2 (gold edition) and 3 for 10 bucks. Didn't play gothic 3 though. Too buggy...
A.G. So true
the intro music of gothic, goose bumps, the nostalgia... aaah it hits hard
it hit me like a bus when i sstarted playing again in 2017. I cried and i was only on the main menu watching the intro! ! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@TechSupportDave 2019, probably my 50th playthrough, still those crazy chills. This game brought me to gaming and RPG esp. Used to be my number one game (before MassEffect2 and Kingdom Come: Deliverance came).
This game was too advance for its time
Gothic 1 is the best Game ever made.. it was so much fun.
No, the game was right at its time. It is todays game that sucks so bad.
it's too advance for today games which has no AI gaming just Graphics
@@taljune142010 Thats true... its easier to make crazy graphic game instead of finding talented people that can make good game mechanics.
@@monsterboomer8051 world building in gothic is still on top
"Ich bin..."
"Mich interessiert nicht wer du bist."
Die ikonischsten Worte die je gesprochen wurden xD
"Ich bin....."
"...eine weitere arme Sau die klar kommen muss" (Gothic3)
"Ich fühle mich, als hätte ich drei Wochen unter Steinen gelegen."
"So war es auch."
"Mein Name ist..."
"Mich interessiert dein Name nicht."
"Neu hier was?"
....
"Ich bin Neu hier"
,,Ein neuer Tag und nichts hat sich geändert"
My favourite game ever. Finished it countless times, same as NotR. Greetings from Poland.
Greetings back :)
Gothic has the best story ever!!! I played it about three years ago and I fell in love with it... Best game I ever played
and the unnamed is actually funny (in polish his comments sound the funniest to me.)
The best game series EVER! Greetings from Romania!
Thank you! Greetings back :)
Bogdan Andrei Sunt de acord! Il ador!

O legenda,niste jocuri incredibile!
Gothic was a bestseller in Poland and had a lot of influence in further rpg imagination in Poland .
Remigius Polański witcher?
2 more importent aspects:
1. The standart graphics dont look very good compared to new games but they describe the athmosphere perfectly.
2. By learning how to use melee weapons, the animations change and become more handy.
Every attack must be timed, which becomes easier if you improve your weapon skills.
PLAY THIS GAME!!!
Jo, das Kampfsystem hab ich wohl leider nicht eingehend genug behandelt :D
Es wird durch das Bildmaterial ganz gut veranschaulicht.
Ich hätte die beiden Aspekte ja auch unter deinem Video, in dem du gefragt hast, was wir an Gothic geil finden, schreiben können.
I completely agree (at least with this part in english, bc I don't know german very well yet :P ). I can't imagine Gothic with more realistic graphic and I think this is good, because it will never get old, it's just hallmarks.
I also like whole combat system in this game.
Rastaman nicht wirklich. Kommt dir wahrscheinlich nur so vor weil du das Spiel kennst
Hmm, mag sein.
Aber mal abgesehen davon - warum bist du schon um 5:00 Uhr morgens wach und schreibst mir einen Kommi? :'D
1:38
That music just hits like a truck. Right in the feels.
IT IS THE BEST GAME EVER MADE
You know what sets it apart?
Attention to detail and the way it was made, as reading a book but actually living it.
No game gets near this level.
I love fallout but it's not even close.
Oh and fuck bethesda
Where you come from?
Poland loves Gothic. Epic game from epic studio.
Gothic I and Gothic II (+ addon) are the best. Ever. I sometimes think it is the nostalgia speaking but everytime you play these games you simply realize that no other rpg combined all the mechanics to create such a lively world and great character system.
Yea, it's definetly more than just nice meories that makes this game great.
and risen 1 can relate
that is true, it is one of the VERY few games i replay every once in a while that i try different approaches and still get amused. although i gotta admit getting used to the game takes 10 hours (every single time) at best :D
to me the beginnings are always the most fun, it feels so realistic at the start, so interesting, it feels like a genuine adventure as you progress!
@Jorge LOL so true. That's one of eternal points that i loved this game. In the current RPGs you are fed by help and support. In Gothic, nobody helps. You can just open free walk around and be killed by first creature, haha.
Gothic was my first action RPG and it ruined this genre for me. Pacing, meaningful choices, replayability, map design, player's place in virtual society... God, I dream I'll be able to play game like this ever again.
and for the first time too...
games made with vision, passion and love for story and depth will always always always be what we, as gamers, look for.
Wow, da steckt definitiv viel Arbeit drin!
Kann man so sagen :D
When this game came out at first the graphics were top notch, what made people turn away from it was the very unusual controls and the extremely high system requirements (for the time) BUT once you got past those two "obstacles" you get a beutiful Masterpiece that only Witcher 3 has come close to after 15 years.
Exactly.
The interesting thing is that the witcher is mostly inspired by Gothic. The polish devs are huge fans of the old Gothic games. Also CD Project used A "writing organizing program thing" made by some old piranha devs to organize and connect their tons of quests for witcher 3. So even Piranha Bytes fade away over time you can say the old spirit lives on^^
Not exactly... Witcher game was inspired by book saga by Andrzej Sapkowski.
Damian K. cd red was inspired by gothic check on the internet. Sapkowski gave them Just story, the rest was up to them
"Just story" ?
Gothic is the best game I played in all my life.
1: Use one hand for one-handed weapons
2: Swing around
3: ???
4: Profit!
It's sad that the game isn't that popular. In poland for example it's a game from our childhood and everyone knows it. even today poles are making funny fan made songs from the dialogues from the game.
Yea, that's the reason why I made this video: I want to make it more popular :D
@@MerlinPlays Im so happy you shone light on it, Im from poland and thiss game will always have a special place in my heart,
The situation is totally the same in Russia. We have rap songs compiled of Gothic dialogues with million of views. Its a cult game in Russia.
When I see only a small scene of the game, I am back in a better time XD... loved it, lived it. Damn. The music alone brings back good memories.
I installed the mod for skyrim where they completely remade the mineland.... and you could take a look on gothic one and two reloaded :)
It's mainly Poland, Russia, Germany and the rest of eastern Europe because they have the best voice acting and because the players there seem to know a great game when they see it, which is why I'm not surprised that the amazing Witcher series was done by Poles rather than Brits or Americans.
Bethesda for instance only talk about enthusiasm when it really is all about making money. CD Project does it with passion and true love for great games.
The Gothic franchise pack is on sale for $2.99 American on Steam right now!! Everyone should go pick it up while it's cheap.
Thank you!
i got it free
it's on GOG so i wouldn't buy it on steam unless it was free.
GOG >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> steam
I no longer own a computer. Is it on PS4? I've never checked.
Okay, you've sold me on this franchise. Next paycheck. im going to try to start this series.
Edit: All three in steam discount bundle. Just got them.
And how was ur 1st gothic experience ?
Gothic 3 sucks ass
The Gothic Series INVENTED what we call IMMERSION nowadays.
@@theloczek9582 it a good game with the community patches
did you play it ?
I agree, this was the masterpiece. And the sound when you level up was incredibly satisfying.
Wow nice Review. I will try this Game out. If its true what you say i will have an awesome time with it. Thumbs UP :))
Thanks a lot! And don't let the unusual controlls stop you from playing. I will upload a video abou them soon.
The controls of Gothic 1 are very, very bad when compared to modern games, but don't give up, I think it's worth the struggle :)
The controls are great once you learn them.
the controls are the best of any actio RPG I ever played. They are quite unique and take some getting used to, though
I played the game over 100 times and I'm still not bored and around 200 times Gothic 2 Gold. Gothic 3 is easier but not so good as those 2 and the story is lacking badly.
I'm glad this game is still getting exposed every now and again. It was an amazing experience, especially back in the day. That's good work you're doing here. Thanks.
Thanks al lot:)
I love how RPGs released much later than this title, learned and implemented so many of the features of this game yet so few know that this series even exists. Publishers are milking their games with remakes, I would love to have a remake of this and g2 on their elex engine, but with the combat system intact just more handy. Fantastic Tribute, even if g2 is my favourite game of all time, g1 certainly has its charm in its atmosphere.
Thanks! Yea, this game was an inspiration for so many develpoers.
Yeah I would like a remaster of all the Gothic games for console loved Elex and it shares a lot in common with this one except for the added tech etc but I liked that part as well as you could go swords and sorcery , chemmed out mad max style , or high tech telepath/ telekinetic
And now, 2 years later, a reimagine of Gothic 1 is actually coming!
@@user-uf8xg6un4l Yea, made by people who had even LESS to do with the original Gothic than the current Piranha Bytes team. Ugh...
Diego was/is the best npc ever existed...
@Feuermagier Pyrokar Or Milten
I love Lee
@@fly1ngsh33p7 milten is a nerd. Lester FTW xD
No the blacksmith Stone was 😂
Gothic 1 and 2 have such memorable characters! I really liked Lord Hagen, Vatras and of course Xardas the big man.
It is without a doubt the best game ever made, too bad nobody came close to making a game this beautiful
Gothic 2, Arx Fatalis
elex ?
Divinity os2?
This is the best game ever.. well there is donkey kong und the snes.. but this one is like a ford gt @ le mans racing
maybe Sacred 1 nad S 2. They are also German RPGs, just a little different, not like gothic
I don´t know why this game was popular in Romania, but through this way I managed to play it when I was a kid and, understandably, has remained with me ever since.
Cel mai bun RPG!
:)
roman?!?!?!??
Da. Jocul a fost foarte popular în România. Am impresia că fost dat gratis de revista LEVEL.
Am primit partea a doua cu revista Level si de atunci am terminat partea a doua de vreo 6 ori, prima parte de 2 ori si a treia de vreo 4 ori si inca as mai juca...
I love the fact that over the recent years more and more people are finally talking about gothic.
I replay Gothic 1/2 every few years, they are even better now with the system packs that enable super smooth movement of the camera (better than the originals).
I think that Gothic was somewhat important in making of Witcher franchise. In Poland Gothic is a big deal for gamers. Every gamer that I know personaly played Gothic and CD-Projekt was publisher of Gothic in Poland so it's clear that Gothic had some influance on their games.
Yea, I think so too. Really cool that Gothic is so popular in Poland, seems like it's even more popular there than here in Germany.
Have you heard of polish fan-made expansion for Gothic? It's called "Dzieje Khorinis" which translates to "History of Khorinis" an will be fully voice-acted. Sadly it probably won't be translated to english or any other language. It's still quite impressive tho.
actually it will be :D
@tREX13470: There's nothing to think, Gothic was probably the biggest influence on the Witcher after the source material: ua-cam.com/video/s2-sDeavkqU/v-deo.html
@@user-xx6fv4tu2q Here's the homepage, it's not out yet. historyofkhorinis.org/ The FAQ says that they will have a Polish, English, German, Russian and Italian version but the Polish FAQ says that the ones other than Polish will come later on.
In Poland Gothic and Gothic II are the most popular RPGs ever. Only Witcher can compare to it
Must be a great country :D
Probably true for all EE countries. First two games were the most popular RPGs (except maybe the Fallout) in Russia, Belarus and Ukraine
I think that Gothic is better but that's my opinion.
I love gothic series, gothic 1 and 2 are my all time favorite game :D I thought about doing a video about this game but sir you did a wonderfull job with this :D I could not do it better. Love this video
OLD BUT GOLD!!
The music in gothic games is amazing, it makes every location feels so immeresive
Manche Spiele sind halt einfach nicht zu toppen, egal wie weit die Technik anreift. Die nostalgische Erfahrung vom ersten richtigen Rollenspiel bleibt für immer ein geniales Erlebnis.
Da kriegt man sofort bock gothic 1 wieder durch zu zocken
I feel so lucky to have played both Gothic 1 and 2 as a kid when they first released.
I would have missed it if my dad didnt show it to all of his kids. I remember him letting me land the final blow on the crawler Queen. It was do exciting
Me too, i was 16 years old when the gothic 1 was just released.
Before Gothic 1 i played Blade of Darkness, for me that was the best RPG ever played.
Incredibly well put-together video. I recently finished my first playthrough of Gothic, and can tell that you've really paid attention to all the subtleties of the game, many of which I completely missed and had no idea about. The camera work is spot on, and your script, voice over and mic quality are also top-notch.
One of the best UA-cam videos I've seen for a while, if not ever. Really well done.
Thank you!
6:57 Das Klappergestell springt dich an xD
Gute Arbeit!
Dankeschön :)
Wow sehr gute Arbeit! Du hast es richtig gut rüberbekommen die genialheit und Schönheit des Spiels zu verdeutlichen (y) also mich hättest du rumbekommen es zu spielen aber glücklicherweise hatte ich die Ehre mit diesem Spiel aufzuwachsen :D
Danke, das wollte ich hören :D :P
shut the fuck up NAZI FUCK POLAND U REMEMBER WHAT U DID TO US FUCKERS? FUCK NAZI !! GERMANY SHOULD BE OUTTA MAP BLOWED UP!!!!
ThaBiGAZ XD
ThaBiGAZ tschau
Great points Ichberg - Thanks for this video.
Watching this at 12:55 - the logbook. Just noticed the 'Witcher Amulet' symbol in the corner!
Great information in this review. Thank you for sharing it. I've added this to my Steam list on your recommendation!
oh man, gothic 2 is my alltime favorite, more than 50 playthorughs by now i think
that rewinding intro, man.. BIG thumbs up!
Thank you!
I was 7 when Gothic came out. I'd never seen an open-world game before. It blew my mind. I kept playing intensely for 10+ years but still never found a match to Gothic and Gothic 2.
I was 22.
I'm amazed that I missed this series. Buying it right now, thank you!
Awesome.It is hard to find good gothic perspectives espacially since durmin paradox blocked his videos,even though I think you should mention the price and the fantastic sequels,as well as Risen 1.
Definetly a Like.
Thanks!
huh? durmin paradox blocked his Videos? i can't watch them without problems and his Gothic Videos are still up.
Really?well I got something to do now.
Thanks for letting me know.
His Gothic Videos are back up :)
Cr4zy Dude Da bist du ja wieder :D
The most beautiful action RPG ever.
Thank you for this video, watching this and hearing the sound effects (nostalgia) made my day, as I played this right when it was release and this and Gothic 2 are two of the best games I've ever played (right up there with Morrowind, Oblivion, etc), it's difficult to fathom how advanced they were considering what we have today (Witcher as example).
I was never able to experience the sense of accomplishment you had when you could defeat that enemy that used to destroy you. I remember to this day that there was a quest that you had to become a close quarters ring champion in one of the cities, defeating other NPCs, and it was so difficult, I spent hours trying it and finally made it and I recall I had to keep running around in circles in the ring, as he could simply two-hit-kill me. Man such memories.
Only those who experienced this game in it's hayday can understand it's excellence.
I can tell you put a lot of work into this. Thank you for the analysis and the nostalgia!
Thank you :)
too bad it's only popular in Germany, Poland and Russia .
Yes, time to change that :D
And in Czech and Slovakia
To this day there are German, Polish and Russian modding teams that make mods. Some teams translate mods from other languages into their own and others create the mods.
dzieje-khorinis.pl
It's popular from Germany to east.
Gut gemacht, Brother!
Danke Dir :) Lass mal wieder was aufnehmen.
I think I stumbled across this video a week or two ago while looking for a new ARPG to play. Loved the video, definitely can tell the passion you have for this game. Realized I bought the Gothic bundle on Steam like 6 years ago and only played Arcania.
47 hours of game play later and I'm about to be moving onto Gothic 2, then 3, then I'll probably give the Risen series a go.
Thanks for taking the time to make this.
Only played Arcadia. Oh man that's tough. Glad u got to enjoy the real gothic
As a 10 year old child in the UK some 15 years ago, my dad somehow brought this for PC & it became one of my childhood favorites! Still have incredibly fond memories of it to this day. First RPG I ever played...
Gothic 1, 2 + Add-on are some of my favorite games ever. Never even finished Gothic 3, wasn't the same game for me anymore.
For anyone loving old-school amazing Rpg's this is a must play.
Same here, when i saw gothic 3 and BOSS i laugh my ass and i deleted the game.
@@iacobescuionut2459 there is really no Boss in G3, maybe Xardas.
G3 is a good game, just different, not as good as G1-2 obviously but better than so many others
You just convinced me to play Gothic! Thank you for this insightful video! I only played Gothic 2 and 3.
NoTasteGaming 2 and 3 for first? U missed alot without playing Gothic 1 😁
Since its release in 2001 i play Gothic about once a year. It never gets old, its never boring. I'm somehow emotional connected to it. Gothic is truely special and unique.
I've been meaning to check out this game for a while, but you've gotten me all the more interested in it.
Who else goes around Lefty?
Lefty send me, I brought you some water!
Ah yes.... Lefty... In the beginning... Lefty, Ricelord and his Cronies made my life a living hell.. but after leveling up and becoming stronger... I kicked their butts big time :)
NOOOOOOOO
@@Pokerface-tr1ds Nah what you do is save the game , enable Marvin-mode and beat the shit out of them then teleport them into ork camp and watch them fight.
@@filipstudeny Funny thing you mention this type of scenario.... because I did it 2 or 3 years ago.... was fun to watch them getting slaughtered by the Orcs there :)
I kept saying, "Gothic.Its gotta be Gothic. Totally Gothic. Please be Gothic. OH YEAH! GOTHIC!" This is freaking great dude, very well done. Consider me subscribed ~ With notifications! Also, Gothic 3 has one of the most amazing theme songs in a game, IMHO. Look up Gothic 3 - Vista Point for anyone curios.
Thank you :) Yes, The Gothic 3 Theme is great. I'm sure you will also love this version: ua-cam.com/video/F2OtLp3hru4/v-deo.html
The Elder Scrolls series theme songs are better :)
Wolfexer I like the Morrowind soundtrack and the Gothic 3 soundtrack, they are both great.
Gothic 3 wasn't finished. JooWood forced PB to release it.
I love this video!!!
sad how no one recognized this post....A salute to you Sir for making one of the best game soundtracks ever! Listening to the Gothic 1 soundtrack feels like a nostalgic journey to the prison colony!
Everyone kai here composed the soundtrack for gothic 1. Thank you kai for a great soundtrack. I have enjoyed it and this game for 20 years. I hope to enjoy it for another 20.
Man, thank you so much for making such a great tribute to such a great game. :)
I'm surprised (unless it was for the sake of not spoiling things) you didn't mention the friendship you create with the various characters around the colony, the ones you also meet later in the series as well.
You're welcome! That's something people can finde out themselves while playing.
Caius Cosades would like to have a word with you...
Epic. Old but totally gold! War ein echt klasse Video, vorallem auch die super Aufmachung. Ich hoffe, dass jetzt wieder mehr Leute auf Gothic aufmerksam werden, auch wenn ich sagen muss, dass mir meiner Meinung nach die Folgeteile besser gefallen haben (was wohl daran liegt, dass ich damals mit diesen zuerst in Kontakt trat). Man hat auf jeden Fall gemerkt, dass da schweine viel Arbeit drin steckt und Herzblut rein geflossen ist.
Danke für dein Lob :) Ich bin auch mit Gothic 2 eingestiegen.
WOW that intro 0:00 - 1:39 ! I think i fell in love ^_^
Great video m8!
Thanks a lot, I'm glad you like it :)
Großartige Arbeit. Gothic, schon der Name jagt mir seit jeher Gänsehaut über den Rücken. Vielen Dank für die Erinnerung und das präzise Zusammenfassen von allem, was dieses Spiel so unvergesslich macht. Wird nächstes Jahr nochmal gespielt!
Your video not only introduced me to this game but also has made me consider purchasing it.
Sau starkes Video💪👈👍👌
Dankeschön :)
Gothic wird auch immer das beste RPG bleiben. ^^
Thanks a ton for this immersive video. It looks perfect and amazing and now I'm definitely sold on it!
this video brought back so many amazing memories of so many amazing hours spent playing this game... thx for amazing video, almost got tear in my eye that i wont be able to play it "for the first time" again.
Thanks, I'm glad you like it :)
Top Video! Die Gothic-Reihe gehört zu meinen absoluten Lieblingsspielen.
Man muss allerdings sagen, dass vieles, was an Gothic gelobt wird, schon viel früher in Rollenspielen existierte. Z.B. in einigen Teilen der Ultima-Serie (aus den 80er und 90er Jahren) hatten Personen bereits ihren eigenen Tagesablauf. Man konnte alle Gegenstände im Spiel benutzen/bewegen, es gab eine offene Welt, bestimmte Taten/Verhaltensweisen hatte Konsequenzen und einen Einfluss auf den Spielverlauf. Man wurde vom Spiel nicht an die Hand genommen, sondern musste alles selbst erforschen etc.
Allerdings kennen die meisten Kiddies von heute solche Spiele nicht mehr und so erscheint ihnen vieles davon in Spielen wie Gothic als Innovation.
Von einigen Ultima-Teilen gibt es auch 3D Remakes, wobei diese auch schon ein paar Jahre alt sind.
Nichtsdestotrotz ist die Atmosphäre bei Gothic natürlich mega. :-)
Jo, da liegst du bestimmt richtig.. Aber waren diese alten Teile schon in 3D? Das impliziere ich in "Action-RPGs as we know them today" nämlich.
Da hast du recht. Action RPGs in 3D waren das nicht bzw. erst die letzten Teile hatten 3D-Grafik.
Und wie sieht's mit der Vertonung aus? RPGs waren vor den 2000ern meist unvertont. Und Gothic ist genial vertont; besonders Gothic 2 hat so ziemlich die beste Aufstellung an Sprechern, die ich bis dato in einem RPG gehört habe.
Die englische Vertonung ist leider höllisch schlecht. Wahrscheinlich auch ein Grund für den eher mäßigen, internationalen Erfolg.
Die Gründe hierfür liegen am Publisher und den doch recht begrenzten Möglichkeiten.
Meiner Meinung nach ist dies dein bestes Video bisher. Schön zu sehen, dass es noch jemanden gibt der diese Begeisterung für dieses Spiel empfindet.
Danke, ist auch mein bisher aufwändigstes.
good job with the editing, really entertaining.
I like the rewind effect :) Oldschool hype!
gänsehaut! richtig gut gemacht und eine angenehme, flüssige englische Aussprache.
Respekt und danke für deine Arbeit ❤
Danke für dein Lob :)
Alter wie du von den neuen spielen auf Gothic mit dem Effekt das überspielt hast GENIAL wirklich Gut gemacht!!!
Dankeschön :)
Ein tolles Video, das gelungen die Stärken dieses Meisterwerks darstellt! Hier steckt Liebe drin. Eine zusätzliche Version in deutsch wäre aber angebracht.
Totally agree, Gothic was such a great game and ahead of its time. I had countless hours playing it. The only complaint I had was the keybind configs, but over time you got use to them. Thanks for bringing back this great memory.
Ich hab echt ein paar mal Gänsehaut bekommen,...richtig geil geworden!
Freut mich, danke :)
Never knew about this game. Thank you! I am going to download and play this for sure! Everything I love about action RPGs that all the modern ones are moving away from. I subscribed. Look forward to more
Thank you! Please note that this is my German channel. I also started a channel just with English videos and much more Gothic content: ua-cam.com/channels/RllIbwMK84Lt60i44Tv0mA.html
Such a fantastic video. Thanks :)
Würde mich echt freuen wenn es das englische Publikum erreicht. Super Video!
Dankeschön! Jo, da hätte ich auch nichts dagegen :)
