gothic remake is Unreal Engine. Does anyone know if it's UE4 or 5?

if it's UE5 the game will be unplayable so the entire discussion is moot.
AI claims it's UE5.
I hate them.

****** roleplay mode on:

"But what do you care, just play the original then, nobody is forcing you to play. Let people enjoy what they want, I enjoyed this game a lot. And I hope devs will also remake gothic 2."

****** roleplay mode off: :sad:

Game was already showing strong signs of retardation when they released the first video for it years ago. There was never any point where this game was going to be anything more than pissing on older IPs that are well respected in the gaming community. It wouldn't surprise me if the entire concept of remaking it was built first on how they were going to "stick it" to the older fans.

The new and amazing intro is out!

Gothic 1 Remake | Cinematic Intro [EN]


Rhobar screams "Enough! Get me the **** mage!" Enough of what? Until now he was okay with losing the war but now decided he'd rather win? And what mage does he mean? I thought twelve mages created the barrier. And why does he act and talk like a rapper in a stroke?

Battle scenes show human soldiers effortlessly defeating orcs, there was not one human dying there, but it shown that a single human can effortlessly kill multiple orcs with any sword. Arrows though seem useless against them. It is the opposite to the original where arrows had limited effectiveness, but melee weapons were almost useless hence the need for magic ore.

Why are all mages gathered in one spot when creating the barrier? This contradicts the lore about the mages' positions and the focus stones. Or is this barrier for hamsters?

Why do uprising miners hold weapons before even getting to the garrison? Instead of pickaxes they were mining with swords and daggers?

Why does some leader (is it supposed to be Gomez or whom?) put a dagger through documents they gathered?

Moreover, there is a cut content about why even the colony was created


This is as bad if not even worse than the total garbage Beamdog made when re-making the atmospheric BG cinematics into some comic garbage

created one of the best RPGs ever made with a $0 budget, 25 year old game engine, and a development team of modders

completely outclassed not one but two major companies backed by a multi-billion dollar publisher trying to make the same exact game but repeatedly failing to the point of having to close down

pfft… nothin' personnel, kiddo

yeah looks terrible dont get any gothic feeling at all from this. And they probably hide most of the woke stuff in the late game. Like an only female camp even if it are orcs and they are wise and the male orcs idiots or something.
