Hog Butcher posted:Gothic exists primarily to give From Software's non-Souls games competition on worst controls. if you keep at it, eventually it comes together. its pretty rough starting out though Prism Mirror Lens posted:i tried to get into gothic (2 I think?) about five times but i remember it had terrible voice acting and every single time i'd end up skinning wolves in generic forest for hours because i didn't know what else i was supposed to be doing Captain Scandinaiva posted:No, and like you said the voice acting (english) is really bad. I played it with the expansion, which significantly ups the difficulty, and had to cheese every fight to get through it. Like MW it has a cool world to explore, though. But barely any lore attached to it as I remember. play gothic 1. 2 is way jankier early on in the game and doubly so if your playing with the expansion

are gothic's controls better on a controller? they seem designed for it and then forced over to keyboard/mouse

i played gothic 1+2 90% with keyboard only, only really using the mouse when not in any danger, so probably. the main thing is getting used to holding the main button then pressing forward/left/right/back to do things and that might be a little awkward on controller at first

Your computer is generally more stable with Morrowind installed, because all the bugs go to Morrowind folder to live. It's their natural habitat you see.

'Read the thread, installed Morrowind again, tried overhaul, hosed it up halfway, redid everything and now i made a Khajít with all the cool magic schools and unarmed/unarmored. Robbed the warehouse, fought some mudcrabs and man that guy that said the tax collector is hard to find in all the new foliage wasn't kidding. Also the water edges look kinda weird with white pixels all over the place but i guess it's something with AA or whatever, but i can deal with this cus i have more important things to do, like robbing banks, selling skooma and jumping all over the place.

and the book of nerevar did say that he could be heard approaching by a rapid thunking sound, for nerevar was scarcely connected to this world and yearned desperately to leave it through a ritual of rapidly hopping everywhere, all the time

Took down a Hunger in some random tomb at level 2 with a silver bastard sword and got a named ebony helmet. Not sure what quest it's for but i figured i'd better bring it along to save me a trip back to that place later. Meanwhile i was trying to walk from Seyda Neen to Balmora in order to pick up all the plants and schrooms for the mage guild and somehow got past Pelegiad twice. Forgot how easy it is to get turned around without millions of questmarkers clogging the screen. Of course i needed to return there anyway to give some ladies glove to a charismatic thief and got sidetracked by Ahnassi.  This game is the best. heard u like girls fucked around with this message at 00:19 on Jun 22, 2014 |

It must suck to be the guy who has to get resurrected as a lovely ghost that dies if you so much as breathe on it with magic or silver to defend your lovely family tomb. Like, all the others get to chill out in the afterlife whereas you're stuck aimlessly wandering around and hoping to god the loving Nerevarine doesn't mug you. Unless you're a bonewalker, which in your case you get to gently caress the nerevarine over in infuriating ways.

I always liked the lovely double standards dunmer have about necromancy. Actually raising the dead is a big no no, but filling your tomb full of ancestor ghosts and building a bigass fence out of ancestor souls is cool. necromancy on non-dunmer is sometimes cool too since they're outlander scum also repeatedly summoning your ancestor ghost and attacking it for magicka regen. tahts just a good old morrowind tradition
