Yup, gothic 2 is one of my favourite games of all time. It doesn't hold your hand and you feel like you're actually playing an RPG. i wish there was more games like that.

Ok so I love Germany, have been to many great cities and towns. Munich, Koln, Frankfurt, Düsseldorf even Hamburg which used to have a bad name years ago but I found charming and had a very pleasant time. Berlin.. Was different. In the two days we stayed there a pusher tried to sell us drugs, basically in the streets, a drunken gentleman of Turkish descent made some very colourful remarks on my girl at the time, when she waved him off he started pushing her with considerable force. Maybe I'm a coward but we ran away(the gentleman wasn't alone btw and fighting strangers in a strange city seemed like a bad idea). The day of the departure another gentleman tried to pickpocket us. Thankfully he was a "pro" because the moment he saw we caught him he said something like :"sorry, my mistake" and quickly walked away. So Germany is cool and fun, Berlin an aquired taste

Exactly, that is a joke. I found that meme funny at first, and depending on the context I still think it is, but some people seem to just use humor to veil and spread actual hatred. Sometimes it is hard to disguish trolls from those people.
People don't spread hatered. In the same way that they don't spread love, envy or any other human emotion. All of them are born inside your brain, they are yours emotions, not someone else. You emotional response to any information from the outside is your own problem and nobodies responsibility.And that's what separates children from adults - responsibility for yourself. People only spread information. And hate speech is orwellian attempt on censorship, nothing more. Stop gobbling down totalitarian leftist propaganda.

I donno about that.... some PB games have had meh voice work but others have had great voice work, Risen 1 for example had Lena Headey from GOT, also the dude who did the voice of Gollum in LOTR, loved the voice work in that game.
@@eldbecks9299 Than this game wouldn't exist. The more interestingquestions are "What if this game was a mega hit like Skyrim or the witcher 3?" or "What if Bethesda or Ubisoft or EA made this game? Would it be better or worse?" ;)
This review embodies the exact feelings i had when i forced myself to complete risen 2. It was hands down the worst game i've ever played. Had the worst combat, the worst story, the worst movement and looting system. But for some reason I pushed through the pain in such a manner that it seems I was trying to prove myself something. I agree with :thinking: out of 10 because in addition to the hours lost of my life playing the game, I wasted more contemplating what my life had become.
Risen 2 was absolute garbage indeed. But the first one was pretty good. Nice world, the combat was fun on melee. The items and magic trees were complete trash, though.
Risen 3 still baffles me plot-wise. They somehow thought it would make sense to to reveal that your romantic interest of the first two games is somehow your sister.
“Germans can’t separate work from leisure.” This is an actual and long-running real-world stereotype; 19th century had lot of Euros that complained about German tourists doing construction projects for fun on vacation.
When I finished the game in roughly 48 hours or something, I saw that I had around 12 hours of loading screen, since I died that much in the game. The combat is quite challenging and I didn't use a flamethrower, other than that good game!
@jocaguz18 Tbh that comment was just a joke. It mostly wen't smoothly for me, too. Except for some game freezes/crashes in Skyrim or New Vegas in random areas.

In Poland, both Gothic games are basically a cult series (Gothic 3 was... so-so). That is because it mostly because of a more-or-less professional voice overs (it was a rarity despite full dialogue translation), the open world with full day/night cycles that blew minds (Morrowind had static NPCs at the time) and we didn't even mind clunky controls. Funny fact: a lot of Polish players thought it was a Polish game, because on how similar in tones it was with Witcher novels* rather than "high fantasy" D&D with clear morality system. Not even Der Schwatze Auge/The Dark Eye (the German pen&paper roleplay) was close in such dark tones. *Witcher novels date back to 1986, contrary to the popular belief NOT being written after the video game but way around.
I thought the Risen 1 combat was fine, not great, but something that they should have kept and improved on. Instead, they made this mess of a combat system, that get's worse with every game, somehow...
Gothic 2 combat was solid too if You understood how it all works. Both were fine but enemy combat ai was damn too predoctable. Now they just keep giving us edited Risen 2 bullshit combat systems.
Nah, ELEX has a brand new system, completely different from everything they did. Gothic 1 and 2 had it's own system, G3 had it's own... ugh... "system", Risen 1 got it's own and so on... and ELEX got it's own. More complex than anything they did before. And the only downside is... well, two: 1) It's 100% based on skill... if you're not very good at it and precise as hell, you will die a lot... 2) The game doesn't mention the existence of Evade move.....
You realize I was talking only about melee combat? And how is evading any amount of damage garbage? Evade is the best move in the game and even better than in Dark Souls, because it takes about 0.3 seconds. It's just very hard to master.
You do realize NPCs are not the only enemies in the game? Yes, NPCs are easy to cheese out because they're slow, dumb and slow. I was able to clear out that stupid bandit camp near the beginning on my own, without any help. Took some time, but it was pretty easy to do. Now say the same thing about creatures. Tell me more about how you can cheese out that stupid satan-wolf whih can randomly chain 3 attacks one after another. With creatures you need to play skillfully.
I've mentioned both monsters and NPCs man. Read carefully, please. NPCs part was just extra to mention how their abilities are nerfed compared to player character same moves. "Tell me more about how you can cheese out that stupid satan-wolf whih can randomly chain 3 attacks one after another." Dude, seriously You suck as fuck in this game. It is rare to monster trigger any attack lol except them walking around like idiot. But eventually when You trigger their attacks lol (which are not fast, You probably didn't saw fast attacks in games), AS I SAID BEFORE step minimaly left or right, they will hit air eventually combo the air lol. If You can't move left/right while locked on enemy (when You are disabled mentally or something) just block blockable monster attacks, even without shield it is effective as fuck. Never fully deplete Your stamina too.
just finished this game and absolutely LOVED it. this was vastly different than Gothic or risen but with the same incredible deep RPG elements, great characters and interesting story.
This is probably the funniest review of a game I have ever seen. Its on sale right now and i'm for sure going to buy it because of this video, thank you for the laughs
As a german I enjoyed your political analysis. I quiver when I think about what they all would do if they didn´t have these horrible "working" simulators ;D
Bites sandwich *cold increased* Breathes normally *cold increased* Wakes up *cold increased* Dialogue option that would make game more enjoyable(cold too high)
Sitting on the loo, browsing for help on this game as just brought it and kept dying - laughed my ass off all the way through this video, then saw the flamethrower bit, now, game is a walk in the park, you sir, have earned a subscription!
I am not a German, but I love this game.. Sure, I only played it after all the patches, but those didn't change any of the core design choices. Such as combat system, which I like. Yes, you are supposed to suffer if you make dumb choices and only try to spam attack expecting to easily kill everything. This I always liked about PB games - you need to run away from many enemies in early games and grow your character. That's how it should be.
Why is it that in every RPG with a story in which a global event births factions like this it's always "faction 1: loves [thing], faction 2: hates [thing], faction 3: clown-based chaos faction"? Does it really have to be so ridiculously polarized around this one thing? Can the main attraction factor and gimmick be... Something else?
They're germans, you can't expect them to deal in anything but such absolutes On a serious note, no one in elex seems to hate elex. It's like heroin: they only care about the way of consumption, not the product. Albs do it through their veins; berserks feed it to living beings to consume it through their anus ala kopi luwak, and clerics are like the los angeles police, building the community where each and every person gets enough product depending on their place at the hierarchy. No one hates it, it's all about how you take it.

In Poland, both Gothic games are basically a cult series (Gothic 3 was... so-so). That is because it mostly because of a more-or-less professional voice overs (it was a rarity despite full dialogue translation), the open world with full day/night cycles that blew minds (Morrowind had static NPCs at the time) and we didn't even mind clunky controls. Funny fact: a lot of Polish players thought it was a Polish game, because on how similar in tones it was with Witcher novels* rather than "high fantasy" D&D with clear morality system. Not even Der Schwatze Auge/The Dark Eye (the German pen&paper roleplay) was close in such dark tones.
*Witcher novels date back to 1986, contrary to the popular belief NOT being written after the video game but way around.
6:00.... Damn that attack hits. Even 2 Years later.
5:39 this joke has aged like fine wine
I thought the Risen 1 combat was fine, not great, but something that they should have kept and improved on. Instead, they made this mess of a combat system, that get's worse with every game, somehow...
Gothic 2 combat was solid too if You understood how it all works. Both were fine but enemy combat ai was damn too predoctable. Now they just keep giving us edited Risen 2 bullshit combat systems.
Nah, ELEX has a brand new system, completely different from everything they did. Gothic 1 and 2 had it's own system, G3 had it's own... ugh... "system", Risen 1 got it's own and so on... and ELEX got it's own. More complex than anything they did before. And the only downside is... well, two: 1) It's 100% based on skill... if you're not very good at it and precise as hell, you will die a lot... 2) The game doesn't mention the existence of Evade move.....
You realize I was talking only about melee combat? And how is evading any amount of damage garbage? Evade is the best move in the game and even better than in Dark Souls, because it takes about 0.3 seconds. It's just very hard to master.
You do realize NPCs are not the only enemies in the game? Yes, NPCs are easy to cheese out because they're slow, dumb and slow. I was able to clear out that stupid bandit camp near the beginning on my own, without any help. Took some time, but it was pretty easy to do. Now say the same thing about creatures. Tell me more about how you can cheese out that stupid satan-wolf whih can randomly chain 3 attacks one after another. With creatures you need to play skillfully.
I've mentioned both monsters and NPCs man. Read carefully, please.
NPCs part was just extra to mention how their abilities are nerfed compared to player character same moves.
"Tell me more about how you can cheese out that stupid satan-wolf whih can randomly chain 3 attacks one after another."
Dude, seriously You suck as fuck in this game.
It is rare to monster trigger any attack lol except them walking around like idiot. But eventually when You trigger their attacks lol (which are not fast, You probably didn't saw fast attacks in games), AS I SAID BEFORE step minimaly left or right, they will hit air eventually combo the air lol. If You can't move left/right while locked on enemy (when You are disabled mentally or something) just block blockable monster attacks, even without shield it is effective as fuck. Never fully deplete Your stamina too.
when coding my game or drawing weird art for it i always come back here to sseths channel for .. inspiration. truly seth is a god tier character
„ Well the unlucky ones become germans“ 😂😂😂 greetings from germany hahahaha
I knew I had to subscribe to this channel within the first 40 seconds of this video...great work
The german names jergen, hans and achmed, bit always gets me xD
Press any key to continue
hits reset button and complains
well played, still gets a good chuckle out of me everytime
I’m so happy this is getting a sequel.
just finished this game and absolutely LOVED it. this was vastly different than Gothic or risen but with the same incredible deep RPG elements, great characters and interesting story.
Just got an ad for ELEX II before this
This is probably the funniest review of a game I have ever seen. Its on sale right now and i'm for sure going to buy it because of this video, thank you for the laughs
Haha 10 seconds in and I know this won't be monetized.
You can feel him holding a smile at 5:28
8:44 That's all too real! XD Love that part.
As a german I enjoyed your political analysis. I quiver when I think about what they all would do if they didn´t have these horrible "working" simulators ;D
This review 4 years ago made both subscribe and buy the game on gog. Completed it 3 times already, absolute gem of an rpg.
Hello, Achhhmed here, there's nothing wrong with the game, it was designed for hardcore RPG players like me
is it just me or do Seth videos get better with every single release?
"The unlucky ones become germans" Ich mag das!
Getting ads for ELEX 2 before watching this. What a blessed timeline we're in.
Bites sandwich *cold increased*
Breathes normally *cold increased*
Wakes up *cold increased*
Dialogue option that would make game more enjoyable(cold too high)
Better be an elex 2 review coming soon
Every German reference and joke is so on point, it's hard to believe a non-German wrote this
Some say he's german, but I've also seen claims that he is polish.
Sitting on the loo, browsing for help on this game as just brought it and kept dying - laughed my ass off all the way through this video, then saw the flamethrower bit, now, game is a walk in the park, you sir, have earned a subscription!
I am not a German, but I love this game.. Sure, I only played it after all the patches, but those didn't change any of the core design choices. Such as combat system, which I like. Yes, you are supposed to suffer if you make dumb choices and only try to spam attack expecting to easily kill everything. This I always liked about PB games - you need to run away from many enemies in early games and grow your character.
That's how it should be.
"German names like "Jürgen, Hans and Achmed" XD Gold
Ahh :D the flamethrower
-how very german! Good to see old traditions maintained with such love and care!
I don't know how it is that this review makes any sense, but it makes sense.
4:52 "weld"
I sometimes forget English isn't his first language
Maybe he was referring to the failure that was starforge. *Gun welding intensifies*
Where is he from?
also "wheet"
Why is it that in every RPG with a story in which a global event births factions like this it's always "faction 1: loves [thing], faction 2: hates [thing], faction 3: clown-based chaos faction"? Does it really have to be so ridiculously polarized around this one thing? Can the main attraction factor and gimmick be... Something else?
of course not, that would require effort
They're germans, you can't expect them to deal in anything but such absolutes
On a serious note, no one in elex seems to hate elex. It's like heroin: they only care about the way of consumption, not the product. Albs do it through their veins; berserks feed it to living beings to consume it through their anus ala kopi luwak, and clerics are like the los angeles police, building the community where each and every person gets enough product depending on their place at the hierarchy. No one hates it, it's all about how you take it.
that farming simulator being connected to actual farming is actually a good idea! let me make some calls...
I love this channel so damn much
achmed killed my sides. btw im german
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
TheHollow I bet you're named Mohammed.
By blowing themselves up and sending a brotworse to be embedded into your side?
The currywurst bombers.
German or "German"?
I'm from germany and this video cracked me up.
How did he know that we got lots of Achmeds here? :D
And i followed your advice. Bought it few days ago for 10 bucks and everything seems fine.
I rly enjoy the final product. Thank you, sir. :)
why don't German people just deport all of these ahmeds?
@@TheNaraku32 Dont know. Guess our politicians havent forgotten history. At least some of them. ;-)
@@TheNaraku32 If all the Ahmeds are gone i cant buy Döner at 3 am. Buying döner at 3 am is absolutely necessary for any german so the ahmeds have to be cherished and protected at all costs
Watching this late at night was a mistake. It takes an immense amount of willpower not to burst out laughing.
I LOVE the nod to fable, "Hero, your will energy is low. Watch that."
We germans also did Anno. You know we love over complex Systems.
“We Germans“ - says nobody every here except on the internet. If patriotism is so suppressed by society, you suddenly need to vent it onto the internet.
@@Nemesis816 well it isnt a patriotic statement considering it throws shade at well germans
@Tactical Bacon we make it fun unless you want something fun
Benedict Mannheim Yeah we also like discussing why and denying nothing is wrong with us and that patriotism is normal here while the entire population is in an identity crisis.
Thx Sseth, gog almost tricked me into giving them my hard earned shekels for this game.
You’re earning them wrong if you’re “working hard” for them
As a German, I was surprised she delighted at the German bashing in this one. Best part: Hans, Jürgen, Ahmed 🤣
> In fact, the stamina bar serves no purpose except to cause you suffering.
Yeah, that's every stamina bar in every game that has one.
