I turn to you PC gamers of Gamespot to help me

I have recently got into RPG's and have loved playing them, I have played, Baldurs gate, NwN, Oblivion and am playing Morrowind now and loved them all

I was interested in Gothic 3 - but my system isnt the best and i know it hasnt got the best reviews so havent got it yet. I have since been interested in the Gothic Series and have found Gothic 2 for £19 ($38 ]. Is this game thats 4 years old still worth getting and worth that price (gothic 3 is slightly cheaper but as i said am worried about system specs)

thanks

Gothic 2 is an absolute gem of an RPG. If you enjoyed Morrowind, you'll feel right at home with this game.

It's the best game in the series, and I'm sure it will still look pretty good. I recommend.

As the previous poster said gothic 2 is the best in the series. However, the price your stating is very high imo. i found gothic 2 gold in the US for 12.99$ us from a game site, and its cheaper on ebay both in the Uk and US.

Oh, I also recommend Gothic 2 to you. It's worth the money and has a good atmosphere.
As I've heard the third episode is full of bugs. By the way: Gothic 1 is even better than Gothic 2, in my opinion.

I really enjoyed Gothic 2. The graphics are a bit dated, but there is a code u can enter to get high rez graphics which improves the look signifigantly. I like the control schemme, although it took a little getting used to having to use the keyboard and mouse together in melee combat. But, all in all I really enjoyed playing the game as a fighter, I may try a mage in the future, but it is a good "Game That Almost No One Played" lol
