I mean usually clowns are 24/7 at the court, but it seems like you are the court clown since you are a ******* joke and you're not even here 24/7. Probably best to let someone else be the clown, and you **** off to the RPGcodex. Or better yet *************.

Polish magazine already played the remake:

https://cdaction.pl/juz-gralismy/gralem ... rocz-mnie/

key points:
- Expanded locations feel natural
- The Colony still feels geographically recognizable and faithful to the original Gothic
- Most quests are almost identical to the original
- There are few meaningful reinterpretations or new solutions to old problems
- Polish dubbing has severe issues, it's incomplete and lip sync is poor
- Lighting, color grading, vegetation, and environmental effects often feel artificial or tonally wrong for Gothic’s harsh atmosphere
- Lockpicking minigames are frustrating and overly time-consuming

And what I consider the most important change:
- World simulation elements were cut out, for example:
NPCs barely react to crimes or suspicious behavior
You can steal from anywhere and nobody attacks you, but NPCs (all NPCs) will just mention that you should return the item
Animals do not attack NPCs or other animals, just the player
NPCs do not attack animals when i.e. they enter a camp
Daily routines are not properly scripted either, they depend on the player actions
You can sleep in any bed now, NPCs won't throw you out
Lol so on top of the **** British English voice acting and immersion breaking aesthetic elements, they also ****** up basically majority of what makes the first game fun to play? It's worse than I even imagined

It has been in development for longer than it took to make Gothic+Gothic 2+NOTR+Gothic 3. And nearly long enough to include Risen, too.

You seem upset, but I'm sure playing this slop will soothe your anger. Just make sure to play on "Novice" difficulty with "Close Combat Flow Helper"

Lol lmao even.
Seeing how you don't see yourself as someone from this Forum, why don't you **** off then? No one cares about you here, you are a waste of space. Hell, in real life people would probably won't even miss your *** if you die, so just pull the trigger now and free up space.

It is not out yet though. Still more than a month away, I do wonder if the remake release will make people flock towards to the originals and then mod even more (minus AI voice-acting)

******, I do not give **** about you oldfags, you guys literally have sub 200 post counts, you are only oldfags by technicality because you registered in '23, but in reality you are newfags. You do nothing here besides lurk. No threads made, no reviews, no lengthy discussions contributed, you could cease to exist and stop posting and no one would ask "where is this poster?" You are nothing and nothing shall you be in perpetuity.

I can see your colorful short reviews don't worry, no need to cry, we can all see you're a big boy. Why don't we pin them on the fridge? Would that make you feel better?
