Risen 3: Titan Lords

[Crooked Bee]

Gothic, to me, is more of a combination of the atmosphere, exploration, and charmingly awkward badass dialogue. I do remember some of the characters, but I wouldn't say they're particularly memorable if taken by themselves.

 

[muds_animal_friend]

Maybe the original German voice acting lends the characters a level of depth lacking in the English versions.

 

[Excidium]

How about I lend your face a level of depth with my fists. Fuck anyone who complains about the english VO of the game

 

[muds_animal_friend]

Edgy and yet banal. I like most of the English voice actors, but the problem is there isn't enough of them.

 

[Darth Roxor]

Meh, ain't got shit on potato VA anyway

 

[Crooked Bee]

I played those with the German VA. It was endearing, but didn't add a lot to how memorable (or not) the characters were.

 

[Joni Odin von Hassenstein]

There really aren't any memorable characters in G1 and G2. It's more the setting than anything else.

I, and nearly all friends who played G1, remember and love even minor charcters, like Whistler or Jackal.

You need to get out more.

 

[Nihiliste]

I've never actually played Gothic 1/2. Probably should get on that.

Indeed you should!

Risen 3 up for preorder in Steam with the usual preorder digital swag.

Not that anyone cares since we have D:OS that no doubt does everything better , but it's there anyway and I felt like posting something.

Sure but there's always a place for a good aRPG on my plate. I've just recently finished NoTR and it was a joy.

Problem is I've got a very bad feeling about R3 - based solely on the trailers and videos but still... It seems as if PB, at least since the preproduction of R2, is ruled by a dictator ramming through some of the most retarded game-design ideas I've ever witnessed and stamping out any criticism or good sense with fire and acid. I really really want R3 to be a worthy succesor of the long lost PB greatness but honestly, it's much more likely it's gonna be a goddawful mess.

I really hope you're wrong. I'm not dabbling much in trailer and stuff, not to spoil the game release to myself, but I really hope R3 is, at least, on par with R2. It would be really retarded if it wasn't, actually. Also bioware would sue PB, as it's usually the former's prerogative to further drop the quality with every new release.

Risen 3 is garbage, just avoid it

 

[Kem0sabe]

When is this coming out anyways?

 

[Cyberarmy]

15 August accoring to steam.

Risen: Titan lords of call of duty.

After Risen 2 i don't have any hopes for this.

 

[imweasel]

It's on my radar, but I don't have high hopes for this game either.

 

[catfood]

Not sure if posted already.

 

[Cyberarmy]

Hımmm. Not sure if i'm going to like the combat, wish they've sticked with Risen 1 formula. Also hundreds of quests sounds like there'll lots of filler quests like Gothic 3.
But they have voodoo pirates, so its a D1P.

 

[throwaway]

So much more tolerable than that German LP.

Looks a bit more decent too.​

 

[cvv]

I think I'm sold.

That video is just screaming "will not be another Risen 2, please buy"

The video from that German Youtuber was terrible, this one is actually pretty good. I really like what I saw and heard, especially when the narrator said "no handholding".
