Gothic
A third-person RPG with RTS elements in another genre-blending adventure? Yep — and not a bad one, either. Gothic isn’t a straightforward action game; it’s a genuine RPG packed with tons of action. The initial storyli... Read Full Review

Overall a very entertaining game.
Overall a pretty entertaining game. Although there are some camera issues because of the 3rd person perspective; the games' atmosphere, story, character development, as well as the character's themselves makes for an enj... Read Full Review

The combat fails, but a load zone free world and a truly well written story will suck you in like you never imagined.
Amidst a small rash of no name role playing games released at the same time, Gothic shines as a rough uncut diamond. Gothic delivers an extremely satisfying but occasionally unpolished experience. More than most RPGs thi... Read Full Review

A skilled-ful game
Worth the money. There is about six to seven different types of trades to learn and about the same number of skills to learn. It is a little hard to learn at first, but the game overall is fun to play and always room for... Read Full Review

Learn it. Play it. Gothic I & II are worth a gamer's time. Action RPG's with actual quests, challenges, and storylin
(Text portion of review applies to both Gothic I and Gothic II Gold.) If you do not force yourself to adapt to the interfacial idiosyncracies of Gothic I and Gothic II, you are missing out bigtime. It takes about an h... Read Full Review

Gothic's a creepy for all the wrong reasons; filled with terrible controls and unbalanced gameplay.
I played Gothic for 10 hours or so before just quitting because I just couldn’t stand it any more. This has to be the worst controls I have ever seen for a game. They've made the game as if it was first meant to be put... Read Full Review

One of the greatest RPG experiences of all time! Don't miss out due to lack of hype.
This is by far, the most underrated RPG ever! Anyone who missed this gem a few years back should get a copy any way they can and play it as often as they can. The only reason I didn't give this a ten is that the battle... Read Full Review

Gothic is a great game and is part of a series that I believe is better than the Elder Scrolls series.
I am a pretty hard-core RPG fan and enjoy games with a challenge and a good story. I started the Gothic series by playing Gothic II and decided to give Gothic a shot after having enjoyed G2 so much so this review will p... Read Full Review

must try for every RPG fan
Gothic is set at time of great war between orcs and humans. However it doesn`t take you to epic battles with hordes of squeaky griming creatures, well , not at traditional sense. The game takes you to prison - the magica... Read Full Review

This game was really underratet by the GameSpot team. And for me, as a role-playing-game lover, it's a must.
Gameplay The gameplay is really good. You can choose, which guild you want fallow. If you want be a good man, you go to the army (or like that), if you wanna be a guru, you fallow the ones, who smoke all the time and ha... Read Full Review
