    It's out today, though most of the people 'reviewing' it probably haven't played it.

    All I care about is whether or not that "PB" vibe is present. Combat has always been shit their games, but there is always a certain atmosphere present that I don't find in similar games. This charm always makes up for it's imperfections; give me a reefer and a bench to sit on and all will be well.

    That certain atmospheric thing to MY OPINION is area design, model design and structure of quests to join factions.

    Still waiting to see if Risen 2 is worthy enough to be considered a spiritual successor to the Gothic series.

    I didn't like the combat in Gothic 3 at all compared to how it was in the first and the second.

    I always thought it was a clunky mess. But it never bothered me that much as I favor bows anyway.

    When I first started watching this video I really wanted to hate him. But now I kinda like him. He's like a low INT companion you might have had in an old RPG.

    Notice how the best scores are from Germany and Poland, while the worst are French and mainstream "European" sites.
