	Site Features @ GameBanshee
		In the computer gaming industry there are many games that go largely unnoticed - the games that do not generate the hype and anticipation to rival summer blockbuster movies.
		Gothic II is, as you would presume, a direct sequel to the events at the end of the first title.
		Gothic II starts soon after this where you are the same unnamed hero who has since lost most of his skills from the first game.

	Science Fiction Game Reviews
		The game draws from the same history as its sibling, pitting the Empire of Man against a variety of aggressors, including fallen humans worshiping Chaos incarnate, brutish spacefaring Orks and the graceful, highly advanced, elvish Eldar.
		The game allows players to rip through a enemy's shields and deal the sort of critical hits that villains love to glory in: weapons knocked off line, internal fires burning from deck to deck and captains killed in bridge explosions.
		Die-hard Games Workshop players may be slightly turned off by the game's mechanic, which varies from the rules used in Warhammer 40K and its siblings (most notably in the elimination of defensive saves for armor).

	Game Over Online Magazine - Gothic (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Gothic is an action-oriented role-playing game, meaning that you don’t just click on opponents and then watch your character fight.
		Gothic is one of those 3D games where the camera follows along behind the main character, and so a mouse isn’t very useful for movement or combat, but for some reason Piranha Bytes didn’t include support for gamepads or joysticks, and the only thing the mouse does is move the camera.
		For example, the game’s world is a little blockier than I would have liked, and the textures aren’t the greatest, but it’s still fun to explore.

		This month, Garriot, who is the son of an astronaut and an artist and who wrote his first computer game when he was 15, has embarked on his boldest experiment yet in creating a world that blends fantasy computer games, the Internet and a mass audience.
		The combined sales of video games, computer games and arcades are forecast by the Interactive Digital Software Association to reach $5.3 billion in 1997, compared with about $5 billion for Hollywood's box-office movie revenues.

	Gothic 3 Preview PC Video Game Preview by AceGamez
		Gothic 2 extended that story, as our hero had to vanquish a great evil on the island of Khorinis under the shadow of an Orc invasion.
		Gothic 3 will still expect magic users to be able to wield a blade, but between the perks and more than forty spells, they are developing a system that looks to be much more attractive for players looking to be a mage on their first time through.
		Like in previous Gothic games you'll need to find the map of the world yourself - there are still teleport runes and teleportation locations throughout the game, so you won't have to walk through the whole world over and again, but there are no horses for riding.

	Gothic 3 (PC) Reviews. PC Games Reviews by CNET. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The game's story--which puts you in the middle of a nation enslaved by brutal orc oppressors--may seem a bit opaque to players who haven't played the previous games, but those who have will appreciate the references to characters and items from Gothic and Gothic II.
		Gothic 3 uses a simpler "one-click-performs-one-swing" system that makes combat a lot easier to get into, though parrying attacks with a shield doesn't seem as effective as simply dodging backward, which gives the game's melee combat a stick-and-move rhythm that requires you to dodge back from your enemies and weave in to swing your sword.
		Gothic 3 is also a great-looking game that has detailed character models and interior environments and beautiful outdoor vistas, especially if you have a higher-end computer system and can get away with turning the game's graphics settings up.

	Gothic
		The game also presents challenging keyboard controls that require time to learn and get comfortable with, and the fixed, third-person perspective that presents your view always from behind the back of the main character can at times be somewhat difficult to manage.
		Basically, as in all RPG types of computer games, be prepared for a vast, open-ended approach to playing a game that develops over time.
		Even though Gothic does involve action sequences, the focus is not on controls to defeat the enemies, as you find in first-person shooter (FPS) type of games, which may explain the added difficulty when these action sequences occur.

	Gothic 3 (pc: 2006): Reviews
		The sunrises and sunsets as just as beautiful as they were in "Gothic 2." It’s an incredible feeling to contemplate vast landscapes or ruins and people in the distance while sitting on a hill, being gently touched by the rays of the sun, with wonderful violin accords in the background.
		Gothic 3 is a deep and rich world, waiting for your guidance to free or subjugate mankind.
		If the game were to be patched to acceptable performance and had all the memory leaks, quest errors and clipping problems removed, it would easily be an 8 out of 10.

		The game spawned merchandise, a cartoon series and pop songs, and was one of the most heavily cloned video games of all-time.
		A computer game is a computer-controlled game where players interact with objects displayed on a screen for the sake of entertainment.
		The term "computer game" also includes games which display only text (and which can therefore theoretically be played on a teletypewriter) or which use other methods, such as sound or vibration, as their primary feedback device, or a controller (console games), or a combination of any of the above.

	Review: Martian Gothic: Unification for PC on Gamepro.com.
		The game's shortfall is that it just does not have the horror factor to leave gamers scared while exploring the mysteriously empty base of Vita 1.
		Another interesting feature of the game is the use of not only lockers for leaving supplies for the other crew, or for rescue later, but vacuum tubes as well that transport items like key cards and ammo to other parts of the station.
		The problem here is that the game appears to really have been developed for the console, but then ported to the PC with little adaptation.

	Specialist Games Forum - BFG computer game??? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Thus it may be known that the leader of armies is the arbiter of the people's fate, the man on whom it depends whether the nation shall be in peace or in peril.
		RTS games are all about gathering resources and swamping the enemy with troops until they die (or until you complete the mission objective - but most people just go with killing the enemy).
		But since it is highly unlikely that a BFG game was being developed, it is all probably a moot point (although if one were to be made, I would hate to see it as an RTS!).

	Gothic PC Video Game Review by AceGamez
		The game is very action based and yet is a stats-based role-playing game too.
		This game has developed a non-linear plot that allows so many different paths and has many surprising and very real scenarios.
		The game is difficult too, providing a real challenge and you are unable to resort to combat to get your way, for others can be as skilled as you, or more so.

	Gothic 2 Reviews for the PC (GameTab)
		The sequel to the critically acclaimed RPG, Gothic, Gothic II takes you on an even greater journey of adventure and discovery.
		The plot continues from the cliff-hanger of the original: After the imprisoned colony members are victorious, collapsing the magical barrier, the former Prison Colony is struck by a terrible earthquake, claiming the lives of many.
		Finishing Gothic II can take 50 hours, give or take, but that's less an indication of an epic scope than it is of the game's slow pace.

	Opening Traps (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		There is no equivalent miniature that is possible in the game of chess, since it is impossible to get a Rook into play so early.
		In Gothic Chess, white can push such a pawn, since the board is wider and the knight does not impede its deployment.
		White was completely new to the game, and deployed his pawns in a straight rush to the center.

	Hands-On: Martian Gothic: Unification for PC on Gamepro.com.
		Martian Gothic: Unification is the latest entry in the survival horror genre.
		Parts of the space station evoke a haunted mansion, with gothic style architecture and strangely patterned carpets and wallpaper, while others rely on the cold steel of the space station's empty corridors to instill a creepy atmosphere.
		Martian Gothic features plenty of exploration and puzzle solving, much of which involves the 'find the key that fits the door' variety, although in this case the keys are pass cards and each card will open a variety of doors.

		Gothic's a creepy for all the wrong reasons; filled with terrible controls and unbalanced gameplay.
		Gothic is a great game and is part of a series that I believe is better than the Elder Scrolls series.
		It's clearly the best traditional computer role-playing game of the year and is bound to be an all-time favorite for many of its inevitable fans.

	Gothic 3 - Page 2 - Adventure Forums
		Yeah, I totally agree with Tangent that Gothic 3 has every bit of the Gothic feel and then some, arguably moreso even than Gothic 2, as the initial setup of the plot at least is much more interesting, though I haven't gotten far enough to judge the story as a whole yet.
		The previous games sure had their faults in that area, yet at least they gave you some actual control over something, making combat much more fun and less of a bore than in say, "Morrowind".
		Beyond that Gothic 3 is built upon an original idea in which you know what probably have to be done but have to go around in villages, helping people out, to eventually find out what to do.
