      Is there a way to enable screenshots in Gothic 2? Like in Settings or in some directory .ini document or something?
      Something which would enable quick screenshots(as in not PrintScreen and then Paste into Paint, that takes too much time) and which would save screenshots automatically in the game directory or some other folder?

    Lees Story - he told you in Gothic 1 if you spoke to him in....i think chapter 4 or 5. He was the Kings most succesfull general but was blackmailed by some chancellor that feared that Lee would stand in his way of getting more power as Lee was loyal to the kingdom and couldnt be bribed so that shady dude killed the kings wife and managed to blame Lee for it - for his great deeds in the wars he wasnt executed for the murder but instead sent to the colony and he now hates the King because the king believed shady chancellor more than loyal Lee.

    • @Dickstick
      @Dickstick 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yeah Lee even seeks revenge in Gothic 3 but I never found out what happend to him since I never completed the game (but had LOTS of attempts). In a way Gothic 3 is the older brother of The Witcher 3. Not bad games but just too redundant for my taste.

    • @AntonioBarbarian
      @AntonioBarbarian 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      In the Arcania lore the Hero helps Lee kill the King, before going with Xardas to the Unknown Regions, Lee then takes over control of Vengard and Ardea before the Hero returns and becomes king Rhobar III. In the canon lore, it's unknown.

    • @kopicat2429
      @kopicat2429 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Nope. He is in fact grateful to the King for not executing him. After all, the evidence "proved" Lee guilty. Yet he still remembered Lee's loyalty and spared his life. The ones he hated were the nobles that framed him. It's why his sudden hatred for the king in g3 was so damn out of nowhere and makes no sense at all.

    • @robso9828
      @robso9828 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@kopicat2429 Actually, he wanted to take his revange on king too. He said that in G2.
      Hell, Hagen is okay with pardoning Lee because he knows why he was send to Colony, meaning that while evidences spoke against Lee, many people didn't belived in them. King did, though.

    You *magnificent* bastard! :D
    You quickly became one of my favorite reviewers for the very simple reason, for the same reason I love to find out new talented and passionate people on YT.
    What do I mean? You are an amateur. Not really professional, but that's good! I see how much passion you put in your vids, you don't have the huge budgets of those big TH-camrs who have all the publicity and effects, you do it out of care, you obviously love those projects and it takes character to do all that.
    I prefer watching amateur creators who put much more effort into their passion projects, writing jokes, scripts and editing, rather then those carefully measured and well-baked products, cause internet's their job now... Double that with the fact English is not your native tongue, and damn, you just have all my respect, Durmin.
    Keep it up, ever since your first Gothic review, I saw you improve but still keep this amateur charm which puts ambition and passion ahead of schedules and patterns. Needless to say, this part was awesome, waiting for more :)
    Cheers!

    You get a lot background story of Lee in Gothic 1.
    There's a book where he's mentioned as one of the generals and at one time he stands on the dam where he tells you how he got betrayed and how he landed into the colony.

    @SHAX516 6 ปีที่แล้ว +24

    years late but fck it
    The humans are loosing the war because 1 human does not = 1 orc ,the ore is important because the swords made from it dont break and can cut through their hide
    Lord Hagen sends you because if the town has no paladins the mercenaries take over ,dragons havent been seen in centuries.Also you were right to notice Xardas didnt revive you untill he heard about the dragons and that he could do it himself with the teleportations alone. He knows that he cant put on the eye of innos because he sold out to beliar for power.
    The king rly is an idiot tho the expedition has only a few paladins the rest are knights the paladins are sucking dick back at the mainland.Garond needs you to get the mining reports because in truth no one else can do it,he saw a chance and he took it.
    Diegos voice is hard to get used to,but its better this way really ((you didnt have to back track he would simply wait for you if you went into the dig sites)) thing about him is that he isnt a hero and he's proud of it lol

  • @piv8429

    Well don t blame the game for your mistakes
    1st never turn of gothic 1 controls [ the lateral blows are the way to go ]
    2nd if you go mele choose one handed weapons for their speed , reaction and momentum are much more important than the +20 damage bonus for 2 handers
    3rd level the f++k up [ logic ]
    PS it pains my heart to see the souls games ,elder shitscrools , witcher , mass effect get the praise for what gothic did a decade before

    • @38procentkrytyk
      @38procentkrytyk 8 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      But the thing is in Poland Gothic was one of (if not the) most popular RPG for a while. It inspired White Hair hunter games. Even after Witcher 1 came out and overthrowed Gothic in Sales people still made tons of mods for this game (some of them added music from Witcher). The problem is that by making Gothic 1 people looked back at Ultima games, when they worked on Risen they looked at Fallout 3 and Bethesda... it really goes downhill there while Witcher actually improves with every next installment.

    • @urbium
      @urbium 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Risen was almost a carbon copy of Gothic, only with a duller story and a much better interface and control scheme. Risen 2 and 3 continued that influence only mixing in a lot from BioWare games for some reason. No Bethesda influence in anything PB.

    • @ZunaZurugi
      @ZunaZurugi 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Mass Effect more or less did it first because Bio Ware = Baldurs Gate...

    • @urbium
      @urbium 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Franciszek Rychlewicz Sure, but to say Risen took influence from Bethesda and Fallout 3 is just plain ridiculous. And I also thought the Witcher series peaked with the second one; the third was just a tedious overlong slog with some good production values.

    @MorbidBloodshed ปีที่แล้ว

    i know im kind of late but this series just popped up in my recomendations.
    the best thing about gothic is that there are usually a lot of ways to deal with problems.
    like getting into the city. yes, you could do farmwork to get farmers clothes and get in.
    you could also strike a deal with a merchant for a fervor he'll ask of you later.
    he would then give you a letter that grants access into the city.
    or an npc tells you that the local alchemist buys herbs from people and if you gather
    a bunch of them, you could convince the guards to let you in because they cant tell
    herbs from weeds, so you could pass as the alchemists assistant.
    the guards could also be bribed to let you in (if you managed to gather some coin early on)
    of course you could climb a section of the wall, move around the city to swim a bit into its harbour
    or get some mobs to chase you towards the city, so the guards are distracted fighting them.

    That's the great thing about the german Gothic games, many important voice actors like Diego, Xardas, Lee etc. stay. And not just that, I also feel like they fit their characters more. I mean here Diego sounds like an annoying whimp while in the german version way more badass. Though comparing them wouldn't be fair as my nostalgia is connected with the german version

    On a side note, I think one reason why Xardas can't get a hold (in term of having it in his possession) of the artefact is because of what he is and that's why he needs the help from the unnamed hero - who is able to use it and keep it in his possession because of what he is.

    Great video, as usual.
    Are you using any texture mods here? This really makes me want to jump back into Gothic(s).

      ***** I already did, the re-world is amazing, but i didn't really like the rebalancing of skills and teleporter stones. Hated the fact that you are forced to play with all the changes, and there's no option to just have the remade world

      +Durmin Paradox Just FYI, you can now get all the graphical enhancements without any of the balance changes. :)

      Andrej Witkowski Google Gothic 2 DX11. Also, be sure to check out L'Hiver vanilla if you want the best texture mod ever for G2.

    Keep at least a monthly upload schedule and the channel should pick up (it fucking deserves to, it's great), you're already close to a thousands subs. Seriously, your videos are great and people need to see them.

    Btw, Lord Hagen doesn't want to send more troops because the conflict with the mercenaries might escalate any moment and he wants any available man in town to secure the surrounding farms to secure his supplies.

    Is there a way to enable screenshots in Gothic 2? Like in Settings or in some directory .ini document or something?
    Something which would enable quick screenshots(as in not PrintScreen and then Paste into Paint, that takes too much time) and which would save screenshots automatically in the game directory or some other folder?

    Gothic 1 also does that if you go into the houses of the people they come after you as well until you leave or you stay long enough that they start attacking you.

    If you took Diego with you to the drop point, where you first met, you would have gotten a "nostalgie bonus", 500 exp and Diego would make a comment about how you first met there. I think it's a pretty cool easter egg.
    Also i love the way the hero says "yeah... so i was" in a suspicious way, like he is wondering what the hell happened to Diego's voice.

      If you find one of the many ways to get into Khroinis then Lares rewards you with XP for finding an innovative way of getting in. The game knows it has multiple ways to get into the city and it's amazing

    Heya, Durmin. I've been enjoying listening to these videos as I play through the Risen series. I don't think I would've seen the appeal of these hardcore RPG games had I not come across your channel.
    So before I go into Gothic 2, I'm wondering if there are any mods you would suggest to make the game more friendly to a newcomer? I'm not talking about the difficulty--just some of the weirder aspects of G2 like how you move faster than the camera when strafing.

    Xardas is called the "Necromancer" in the english version :o? In the german he is called the "Dämonenbeschwörer" which translates to "Demon-Summoner". Also I remember that you get to Lee by turning right not left (19:30 +).You can't fool me >:D

    Comeon, man! The combat system is one of the best in any RPG ever. It's unforgiving, yes, but those were the good old days when games didn't hold your hand right from the beginning to the end and you actually had to learn how to play them.
    Great review though.
