Hell of a lot better than G2's final boss fight.
Mikayel said:Hardly, the meat of the game (chapters 1 and 2) are what create a lasting impression. The ending is seriously the last 10 minutes of the game.
There was a decline in quality in the last two chapters due to a lack of non-dungeon quests but eh, such is life and all games. When given the chance people get and finish all the quests they can. PB should have made some new ones come up, and they did, but not enough.
I think they should have introduced some new NPCs and some minor faction-rivalry again, perhaps even some smaller groups that aren't in the order/bandit dichotomy.
problem of Risen´s dungeons is twofold:Mikayel said:I didn't mind the temples. I could see room for improvement but a dungeon's a dungeon and they kept throwing interesting stuff at you throughout it so it never got tedious for me.
i really hope PB will proportionate various game elements more evenly for Risen 2.
Unkillable Cat said:After sinking 24 hours into Risen I'm almost at Level 17, still in Chapter 1 and have just got out of Harbour Town, and all signs pointing to me siding with the Don. I've spent a godawful lot of time just cruising the countryside killing everything in sight. So far only Ashbeasts and Ogres are beyond my capabilities, and for some reason my chances of killing a Ghoul are only 50/50. More than one Ghoul is suicide.
My biggest gripe with the game is how I've broken the order of quests several times now. For example there's a quest where I'm to smite 6 Undead Lords and get their rings, which I guess is supposing to lead me to a ÜberUndead Lord, except I've already killed him and nicked his shield, even though I still haven't found the last Undead Lord. Harbour Town was also full of similar cases.

torpid said:Yeah Risen rocked, and I enjoyed the dungeons since they were interesting and the fighting was fun. Still, a bit disappointing when compared to the early game.
Does Gothic 3 have interesting quests and some faction politicking or is it a lot of kill/fetch?
