How right you are. This game is a piece of shit. I’m very annoyed about THQ Nordic guys.
And no, this is not because it’s just an early teaser. This argument doesn’t count. They had to release a well made teaser. Here you can see how they imagine a modern remake and this says everything.

I overlooked that there is a playable teaser and though you only watcherd the video teaser (as you can “play” video too).
Well, the teaser were made for opinions, it took me 2,5 hours to complete it so I guess it is enough to make a picture.
There are no opinions. Just one simple fact: this teaser is shit.
Guys, you are shitting on everything you touch lately. What about you stop being jerks and start being honest.
There are those who will complain because they did not get two scoops of ice cream,
I could not be more honest.
If you think so, but it is typical for such developers like THQ
Creating a prototype and waste money instead of what is not so far from what people really wanted. Of course, many others now write that one should not speak for everyone, but they forget all her previous statements in recent years. The WoG is full of such posts, but it can now ignored by fans and developers because everyone is only so horny that there will be a official whatever far enough from gothic remake. Playing this full version of the teaser doesn’t really mean knowing Gothic. I just say that people will eat the game no matter how far it is from Gothic away, only consumption is what counts for people, no claims or something other. Stay Friendly and give them your money as a little Number in Society!
If you can read the lines written in Steam reviews, you can see the accept of most teaser parts. Arcania was the brand’s first kill and this game will be the second. Anyone who thinks they would bring it back as close to Gothic as possible is a fool. It is a remake and it would hardly make no sense to remove the reinterpretions to make a 1 by 1 copy with a new visual overlay. Goal is Remake! That is what people not understand in the concept and on THQ in the development of the game. WH also made a prototype, but not to say in the end that they would revise or remove 50% of the content. That is the case in this Gothic teaser and the reviews. They should try it but it is a fact that her visions of a remake did not fit to any of the fans. They even deliberately ignore the WoG, the biggest Fanpage ever! Only abusing of Names, Characters and the world. If i say something against Sykrim these people going crazy but now they can come and destroying my beloved brand or what?! Nope Sir. Some dumbs thinking they can control every forum discussion and there is the point and time where myself (and others) comes. These positive Steam Review writers should go back to her beloved game and closing her arses which them call a face. The people WNAT a new Gothic, but a Remaster. And the fear here is that THQ will cancel everything because they want a Remake and not a HD with the old mechanics. The feedback THQ will use is so small and tiny that the entire game won’t be far from the teaser interpretation. This is the oldest trick right after the closure of Sierra On-Line! Or as Merkel once said, before the election is not after the election. If i’m honest, it’s funny but more boring how people let getting kidding by themselves.

I read many reviews and so many of them had something in common. Positive and negative ones.
The poll I filled in for THQ asked if we want prequel, sequel, remaster or reimagination. Since it’s not the same team, I doubt they would do well with sequel. Prequel is being made by polish developers but they haven’t released update lately so it is hard to see the end of that project.
THQ didn’t want to make remaster for unknown reason as said in introduction to this teaser. They mentioned some of their team members really liked the old combat system (me included) but I don’t miss CTRL+arrowup for picking items.
Jumping uphill stayed very similar. Inventory and combat are absolutely changed. Balance of combat in teaser is absolutely bad. Many think it is stupid to put strong animals against level 0 player. These are surely placeholders, there were scavengers, molerats and goblins, but the wolves have new animations.
And too many cutscenes with too much hero commenting, that is huge change in story. I realized in 1 minute I’m not gonna play same Gothic. I wasn’t sure I’m playing same nameless hero, had to ask. He and Diego are so much different from original.
There could be many complications along the way.
I tried to jump over mountains. When I started, I could visit bandit camp, new camp and troll right away without fighting any animals along the way. Now, there are tall stones along the road. If I fall below this area, even small fall, I die automatically. The gates can not be climbed over, which is the point, but the lower one wasn’t even there then.
One thing I strongly dislike is invisible wall around river, that was one of the fast travels I used when going to swamp camp. Pretty much all places around waters are locked out.
If they want to keep For Honor combat, they must remake the blocking system without indicator of enemy attack that shouldn’t be shown, the animation posture is for that.
Lockpicking only requires lockpicks and keys now. We can crouch right away and there’s new bait feature.
Almost every reviewer mentioned graphics being so much not like Gothic, not talking about different armors and little details like too much fog and bad performance.
Dialogue system might be too complicated if they want to do it for each quest giver, inventory notes and cooking recipes are enhanced which can be only seen as positive. Though many request no recipe for cooked meat.
Funny thing is battle music that is tied to just unsheating a sword. That is simply not good idea. Music in all good games was adapted to changes of an environment or occasion, sometimes warned when you really got into fight. Here it misleads all players thinking they were attacked.
Arcania is a masterpiece compared to this shit of a remake.
I Hope the Gate with Bloodwyn was only for the teaser purpose (Like a invisible wall). Otherwise it makes no sense.
I mean nobody needs such a Quest, “Oh please light up the fire on hill/mountain to pass the gate”
wow, it must be a very very hard work to create such a simple, boring quest^^
This was only created to stretch the game unnecessarily.
Yes that is pretty one of the biggest problems. Invisible Walls were never a part of the game concept.
Everything was designed to give a fuck on such technologies. And the presentation and design of this teaser alone does not make me doubt that there really is more of this teaser. Collecting feedback is to 50 percent only PR.
I didn’t like the combat system. Yes, it’s more difficult, but it’s a very slow fight.
Making dodge junkies out of enemies is not really difficult. It’s like the survival mode in FO4,
Instead of good AI, you did less outgoing damage and a lot of incoming damage.
Yes exactly, simple Gothic 3 copy&paste work. Since Gothic 1 every developer raped the Lockpicking systems more and more.
The system from Gothic 1&2 is and was everytime the perfect one.
Performance is different for every user. Something what these people will never understand due of that Early Access Garbage concept on Steam.
Recipes for roasted meat is totally Gothic 3 - Arcania. I dont like it. Maybe for some potions it is good but not for simple ones like Meat.
Completely true. There is nothing to add here.
They should watch landscapes Mods for G1. Maybe my own, GLVM.
But what a shame that the WoG acted like idiots and nobody except three others have my Surface.ZEN.
It wasn’t just the story why Gothic was a huge success. It was the atmosphere and the simple mechanisms.
And for me there is nothing today that makes it more pleasant and at the same time more interesting as Gothic did.
Nice joke! A+
Arcania is nothing. The teaser is better than that!
Nice joke!
Arcania has always been one of the best modern RPGs. Way better than the shitty Witcher 3.
But the Teaser is the worst piece of shit I ever played.
Well, shake your hands with WorldOfGothic! LOL
No. WorldofGothic is full of idiots and morons.
I would like to get this thread back om topic… I have recently played and am now replaying Disco Elysium. It is a role playing game in the truest form of the genre. What attributes you give your character determine much of how you play, solve and advance in the game. Your choices do matter and your actions either advance you to the next stage or not. There is no sword fighting, no magic spells or dragons… I do miss not have dragons. As I said it is an RPG and I would recommend it to those who are fans of Phillip Marlowe and Raymond Chandler.
I would love to have a german translation of Disco Elysium.
I also recommend for you:
- Torment: Tides of Numenera
- Tyranny
- Pillars of Eternity 1+2
Which engine and what kind of file format?
Myself working on a complete unofficial german translation for WolfenDoom - Blade of Agony
(I want to get the authorization to publish it after completion)
I worked on german translations too. But I can’t do that for all games.
I don’t know which engine and file format Disco Elysium use.
Unfortunately it seems to be only in English (Steam version). GOG only has the English version also. I tried Tyranny and I found the story good but the game itself unenjoyable. I Have played Pillars of Eternity 1 and 2. Wishing you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Thank you. Okay, these games are not for everyone.
I wish you merry christmas and a happy new year too.
