Leeeeeroy Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 well, if i'm not wrong the other two Risen games weren't particulary good, but not terrible, so i wouldn't put my expectations really high for this one
Angrybird Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 What a weird bunch of games I might check this one out too.
Jormungandr Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 Played the shit out of the whole gothic series, with all its bugs and errors and i still loved it. Risen 1 was very nice actually albeit a bit short. I stopped playing risen 2 after the first 30 minutes, felt like monkeys fighting with sticks and the flair was just...wrong. Risen 3 looks a lot more like it should be, i'm most likely getting it from what i see currently.
winny257 Posted August 11, 2014 Author Posted August 11, 2014 as I know "piranha bits" has not covered itself with glory, the two predecessors Risen 1 and 2 were not earth-shattering. hope they have finally made it this time better.
jxm Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 Though I am german the Gothic-Series (and Risen inofficially belongs to them, in some way) never really "got me" ... Don't know why, maybe because if I am forced to play a dude it should better be one of Geralt-calibre, not another bland amnesiac. And the world just wasn't my cup of tea either...and Risen just looks too "tropical" to me, especially the second one...it just doesn't "spark" anything with me, but few games do recently, maybe I am just getting old But there are some hilarious bug-videos about Gothic 3 iirc
windpl Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 I got gothic from store on launch, I was just in store and noticed a new game. Thing that made me buy it was it description - from current day perspective it description was a a greatly exaggerated but anyway It was different from other crpgs. Overall it was good series some fresh ideas ect. But it ended on part 3 which was buggy like shit, I shuffled it and haven't put hand on it ever since. I tried risen, and second and all was outdated crap to me, I don't expect form 3 to be anything different. If it will be good at last I will be surprised in good way But for sure I'm not buying it without trying it out first.
...0... Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 Gothic serie was nice. Then risen came was ok but not above avarage, 2 was abomination. And what ive heared and read and see im not buying it seems worse then risen 2. High prais from me in gothic series after that it went downhill now i don´t belive anymore in piranha bites.
Phelps1247 Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 I want to play them but with no character customization I just can't.
Angrybird Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 Hahah I couldn't save the game first time I played and had to restart, I'll keep it installed but my will to keep playing is sapped.
Jormungandr Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 Well i got it. And i have to say i like it very much so far. Has the old feeling or "Do some shit if you want to get in here!" just like in Gothic. <3 Also, not sure about the english version, but the choice of words is again, very agressive and just as in the good games of the series. Plot seems interesting so far and also gives the name finally a meaning to be named Risen. Frankly i expected at least a few bugs, knowing the Gothic series but i have to say, i encountered none so far. Now i'll continue to explore and incinerate hell hound asses with my fancy magic glove. I don't regret the purchase at all.
windpl Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 I have seen it, and played for some time. I have to say that it is improvement since risen. Not bad game at all. Although to much grind and running (I know about teleporting stones but finding them is a pain.)
Jormungandr Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 I have seen it, and played for some time. I have to say that it is improvement since risen. Not bad game at all. Although to much grind and running (I know about teleporting stones but finding them is a pain.) It's been that way since Gothic 1, although i don't really get the grinding part you're referring to. Guess it comes down to mentality if someone just desperately wants to get as much points as possible or just explores and gets them as he plays. Personally i prefer the latter.
Guest Mogie56 Posted August 16, 2014 Posted August 16, 2014 Looks Cool, never played it before though. http://store.steampowered.com/app/249230/
Darkening Demise Posted August 17, 2014 Posted August 17, 2014 Going to check out 2 first. Never played either series. 3 is being bashed for having many issues and reusing many assets from the previous title.
windpl Posted August 20, 2014 Posted August 20, 2014 I'm surprised that there is no nude mod already. Well there is one, for native Indian shaman, but she isn't companion so that doesn't count.
SquallPT Posted August 20, 2014 Posted August 20, 2014 Guess she made a boobjob from 1 to and 2 to reduce and wasn't happy with the result and made another one from 2 to 3 to enlarge but the doctor was drunk and put more.... best doctor eva
SquallPT Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 BUMP Watched the IGN Review. What the hell happened with this franchise ? http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/08/12/risen-3-titan-lords-review
