I would say playing through risen/elex at least once is worth it, just take your time.The subreddit for anything Gothic or Risen related!įor more information regarding the upcoming Gothic games check out our Gothic Remake Megathread. Oh and the fact that the stats didn't matter was really annoying too. And I remember having a few issues with the story or something, don't quite remember. The combat is kinda meh, at least unlike Risen it has more variety, but it is a bit worse. In Elex's case, it's due to the world feeling a bit too static, a bit too "throwaway" if that makes sense. The biggest issue with Risen 1 was mostly the game becoming worse later on, and it gets real meh once you need to get certain "disks", I think this is about 50% of the way? The other issue is whilst the combat was solid, it was pretty boring, unlike in Gothic where your animation changes, in Risen it's all the same animation which made it quite boring, and also the combat itself just felt easier.Įlex has the same problem as Risen 1 had for me, it's a decent attempt at the Gothic magic, but just didn't quite make it. Risen 2 I didn't like at all, Risen 3 was just ok, not as notable as Risen 1, but I did like the magic combat, it felt nice. My take is that Risen was ok, I replayed it a few times years ago when it was kinda fresh, but I will definitely never ever replay it ever again, it was just a decent attempt at the gothic magic but didn't quite make it. Sadly fucked up they RPG mechanics: there are no different character builds anymore since you always need the same stats, balancing is also a joke. The biggest city is especially disappointing in that regard. You just finish all content in one region and travel to the next with no reason to ever return since there are no new quests/dialogues in later chapters. Though the size of the open-world means that it's too static and that no location really feels important. But this time you have a jetpack, quests are mostly good and combat that doesn't suck too much. century south sea setting.Įlex is basically Gothic 3 done right, still has a very large beautiful, varied open world that you want to explore. Risen 2 + 3 were designed for the casual console audience and it shows dumbed down mechanics, too easy, small seperate islands instead of one open world, removed immersive elements like drinking/eating animation + QTE: Only saving grace is the 18. Gets worse in later chapters and ends with a "hit the glowing area" boss fight where your stats don't matter. Sadly lore and story are extremely basic and the hero is utterly boring and forgettable. Risen 1 is basically a 30h modern Gothic 2 reboot with good controls and PB's best combat system + fun utility spells like flying and transformation.
