    Putting in a time stamp was too difficult, too. Skip to 3:04 for no spoilers!

      Yo, to generate chapters one needs to add timestamps to the description, i.e:
      0:00 Spoilers
      3:04 Start here to skip spoilers
      Interesting to hear you as a narrator (: maybe will give Risen a shot one day. Can't be worse than Gothic 3 ;P

    Risen 1 is a game on level with Gothic1 and Gothic2. It has gameplay and atmosphere I found in no other RPG.

      absolutely, I actually played Risen before Gothic 1 and 2 and found that they were so similar when I finally played them.

    I found this on xbox 360 in game (the uk's gamestop basically). I read the back, looked at the pictures and thought i'll like this. Took it home and fell in love. The melee combat is the best the devs have ever done imo. Got a pc in 2016 and played Gothic. i love all 3. Elex 1 is my fav out of the whole collection. It's got its flaws, but it's the one i've played the most. Elex 2 was frustrating because some things were better, eg. Graphics, jetpack, but all weapons had the same animations, the only difference being 1h and 2h. And the cold system felt like it was watered down. If people are interested, there's a 2d isometric game called drova forsaken kin, which is influenced by Gothic, and i strongly recommend it. I completed my 1st run-through this morning and thoroughly enjoyed it. God bless cay lol.

      it's such a great game! I've been meaning to check out Drova although I actually didn't like the demo. Maybe I'll still give it a go.

      @marceltheshelly2030 if you didn't like it because of the bugs and performance that's all been sorted. Hope you enjoy it.

    i've played risen 1 and 2 for the first time recently. Risen 1 was awesome for the first chapters to start falling off in the later ones - with the last being the worst (especially the anti-climatic puzzle ending), but still, great time. I've picked up 2 and was disappointed about the world, that almost no one seems to understand what have we done in the first game. The combat was i guess a little bit better, but then i've picked up a gun for my character and the game started to be really easy and tedious. I have not finished it as i encountered game-breaking bug and didn't pick up Risen 3 coz of this. Expected to get a connected story between all three games, not some loose knits between each game. I suspect it is better from business pov - you can pick up any game you want without playing rest of them. I think the game is already very old - if you want to play it, do it right now, as the jankiness will become even more evident in the future :/

      As I said in the video I agree for the most part. Risen 2 I wasn't a big fan of on release but I haven't played through it in ages, so I'm not quite sure how I'd find it now. The same is true for Risen 3, although I seem to remember that I found it much more enjoyable than Risen 2. So it may still be worth giving it a shot if you like PB games!

      @marceltheshelly2030  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      it does! although it's not a ton. It's more a matter of different playstyles than content. The faction-specific content is mostly confined to chapter 2, afterwards, it's pretty much all the same.

      I'm not sure what you mean. Risen came out in 2009. It has since received one patch when THQ released it for the new consoles but apart from that nothing has changed.

    Risen experience:
    1. Decide to play as a mage.
    2. You don't even get a spell until chapter 2.
    3. Ragequit.
    Great game for fighter classes though.

    I never liked it when devs use a chapter structure in games like this. It's far too limiting. It's better to just have a fully open world, anything goes, and let players figure it out on their own.

    • @marceltheshelly2030
      @marceltheshelly2030  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Fair enough! I thought it was cool that the world changed in between chapters. Not sure if that is something that was also possible with a seamless open-world, perhaps the devs resources were limited in that regard.
