IGN writes: "As a gamer that doesn't traditionally follow PC titles (besides my timeless affair with StarCraft), I was unfamiliar with the Gothic series. This European role-playing game franchise features a nameless hero who fought all sorts of evil. The games let players slay monsters, seek out quests, cast magic and tackle all the classic RPG tasks that we know and love. But the Gothic games haven't been as popular here in the United States as they have been in Europe. The new developers of the Gothic legacy, Spellbound, are hoping that will change with Arcania: Gothic IV, the latest in the series".
Generic world, dumb NPCs, and forgettable story, but can it still be fun? Read all about it here.
One man's bad game is another man's good game.
While many will disagree with the author, i will say that i am actually interested to get Arcania now. It was on my mind a while ago but i forgot all about it. Hopefully its a good game.
As long as you don't expect a AAA top-tier RPG there's a lot of fun to be had in Arcania. It's a great game to play with headphones on, curtains closed and for extended play sessions - If you pick it up I hope you enjoy it!
I could probably list 10 reasons why The Witcher 3 is better than every oher game ever made. But at the end of the day it will still only be an opinion and not objective fact.
How can someone say, that a dense story is bad and straightforward story is good? I didn't even read the rest, he is just wrong.
