Are you talking about the new Gothic Remake being developed by Alkimia Interactive? Because I am not aware of a Remaster
Looking very much forward to the changes coming to the PC. Can't wait to play Gothic on the Steam Deck!
Thanks for the video I’m getting Gothic 1 today didn’t realize these were released on switch so excited to actually be able to finish the game as a kid I never got to finish it. Hoping they finish it off with Gothic 3 I still can’t believe we got these games on switch to play hand held
Thank you for the review! Btw, for me the camera looks a bit too close to the Hero in your case, especially in the combat mode. You can edit the range pressing the right joystick and change the disctance. Just in case you didn't know that =)

Stop making an idiot out of yourself, blaming the game developers *sigh*... Switch is weak as hell.... Look at PS2 Metal Gear Solid games... On PS2 they run at 60 frames per second. On Switch they run only at 30 fps, because apparently Switch couldn't handle higher frame-rate those games. You are being a pathetic Nintendo apologist.

Honestly, I just hope to see the devs open-up the tools to the community. I can only imagine the amount of work that had to be done to port the game to switch and the amount of new tools they had to program in order to do this. The Gothic modding scene was already surprisingly large, if they dropped a modding SDK or even just some of the tools the community would do so much with it.
Why no xbox/ps port though?
Funfact, gothic 3's VA for Rhobar/Nameless, is Crispin Freeman- the guy who voice acted Alucard in Hellsing. Hes also the Wizard in Diablo 3 ❤️

Yo will you play G2 Live?
I'd love to play g1 and g2 gold on pc so i realy hope they add the changes to the pc version. Can't wait to be able to play Gothic without the need for all of the comunity patches to be able to run anywhere near properly on a modern system. Plus the quality of life improvements like the inventory and the improved controls :) Well, i got used to the original controls prety well so for me is no problem with 2 butons attacks, it is ok. Bot for everybody i suppose do yes, i like the changes. I was thinking to purchase a switch oled but i think i will skip it, i'll just play on pc.

It only requires the player kit and system pack. Done. But you can do more. The player kit is for mods and the system pack is for playing on modern pcs. Do this on the pc version. Open "systempack.ini" search for "npc" put a "1" next to the one that says remove labels from dead npcs. You will know it's the right one, it's hard to miss. This prevents you from looting a dead npc that does not have anything to loot. You won't get the "nothing to be had there" all the time.

Seeing TES III Morrowind, TES IV Oblivion, Fallout 3, and Fallout New Vegas on NS would be great, an updated version would be even better, but even a simple port 'as is' would be great (as long the price tag is fair).

The second is the best in the series, no doubt. The third is the biggest one, but it's a lot more generic feeling. If I were you I'd play Gothic 2 next, and if you fall in love with it you might be able to live with the dated feeling of Gothic 1. Both feel a bit clunky (on PC at least) but it's worth investing the time. It's a unique experience and there's nothing like it.

Its one of the worst and poorly made ports. 0 effort on a slapped on steam ui copy paste, poor framerate which could easily be fixed had the company that now owns the ip cared. No effort to remake the textures, lighting or animation something that nightdive studios has done for so many ports. Clearly they dint bother to modify acceleration or deadzones for the Switch joycons. Not even bothered to add highlighting of objects that can be picked up, so you often just have to be ultra precise to pick up basic items. Anyway nobody shud pay more than 2 bucks for this on switch.
