All massively ambitious games attempting to capture the scale and freedom of a Bethesda title, but released with so much jank it makes Bethesda look like Nintendo. I played Gothic 2 and 3 some, and some of Risen, and they were fine for the time - not a lot of competition back then. But nowadays, there are so many god-tier A-plusplusplus titles released and releasing that I couldn’t 100% all of them if I dedicated my remaining years to it. Jank-ass RPGs, no matter how expansive and lovingly crafted, don’t stand a shit-fume’s chance in hell of catching attention in the current climate. So this is sad, but they hadn’t put out any real bangers and I don’t think the next PB project was gonna change the landscape.
