So there seems to be a complete "remaster" of Gothic 2. Personally, I'm not interested but the video sounded good enough that some people on the codex might be:


Haven't seen it mentioned here. Just delete the thread if I missed it.

Why people suddenly make news about Returning 2 after that video went online?
Ret2 is avaliable for long time (2years) and it's still far from finished, nobody mention that English version is just google translated gibberish and this tiny group of modders are still patching it. They also developing addon for Ret2 (Goetia) AND Returning for Gothic1.

Too late for "what comes first, Grimoire or..." joke, dangit.

Maybe there is another explanation? Maybe newsmen are looking for news everywhere after NeoGAF went to shit and less threads are made in this vile forum?

Has anyone played it? I need a review by a codexer plox.

Edit: So, buggy mess and HP-Bloat: the mod. Well fuck it, I'll give it a try.

Edit2: Well nvm. After installing a dozen exe files from russian sources (what could go wrong?), the setup didn't create the mod launcher application. Starting Gothic2.exe results in a crash after New Game is selected.
I expected buggy but not that buggy.

Does REGoth fit here?
For those who are not aware, REGoth is a reimplementation (source port) of the engine for Gothic 1 and 2.

Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
I knew that Russian modders are absolute madmen that mostly don't care about anything but making the game as hardcore as possible, but trying out Returning and running into a Snapper on steroids instead of the usual sheep + goblin combo in front of Xardas' tower really gave a new dimension to the whole thing.

It is on "Legendary" and I realize that you're supposed to be creative to overcome the challenges of the game, but I had to be an asshole and just glitch my ass up a cliff and kill it with spell scrolls. Working as intended?

I'd reply but he ignores me and is also too retarded to read video descriptions.
