Have you heard about Gothic 1 Remake? Please make a review about that. And monitor its process. As for Gothic 3, it needs a remake version. I do hope after Gothic 1 Remake finished, they're going to remake Gothic 3 first then Gothic 2 Remake.

I wasn't expecting Gothic 3 to be the subject of such a video - or anyone's favorite in the series... Nice!

As someone who's never played any of the older Gothic games I actually enjoyed Arcania and it's expansion I found the story to be good and the side quests its far from a perfect game but it's decent atleast even if the older games are better I mean who nows maybe if Arcania hadn't received so much hate a new Gothic game would already be out not saying it didn't deserve the hate once again Arcania is the only game in the series I've played and that's not my fault I play on a modern console the older games need remastered or something

The advantage of Gothic 3 is only 3 to 4: 1. Bigger maps without loading screen. 2. Various weapons, armors, and magic. 3. Complete Quests before given by quest givers. 4. Voice actors and soundtrack. The unfortunate lacks of Gothic 3: 1. Having Europe Middle Ages Fantasy World theme, instead of Dark Middle Ages Fantasy World like Gothic 1 and Gothic 2. Which rich of Gloomy, Dark, Dense atmosphere. 2. Melee combats were so bad. Where no progression moves and 'range' is all that matter. You just use basic halberd in entire game without change any weapons. 3. Unfinished Quests. Full of filler fetch and kill quests. No main story. 4. No ending boss. The end that truly cannon is go to unknown land with Xardas which make me bored as hell just to follow an old man from the end of Nordmar to the end of Myrtana. And even worse is the NPC pathfinding is the most worst. 5. The story of Lee, Rhobar, and the nobles was bad execution. It's one of the most sad and underrating story in Gothic 3. 6. All Nameless hero's friends didn't get major plot in Gothic 3. 7. So many plot holes. Like for example: The Hashishin. In Gothic 2 we can hear Vatras peaches in citizen of Khorinis brains that human followers of Beliar are mind controlled, but in Gothic 3, they willingly follow Beliar. The god that wants to see human eradicated from the world. WT*. 8. There's no hierarchy in the game. Where you, a weak mc, can easily kill a group of orcs. And you can't even kill a group of wolves. I think a group of orcs can easily killed by a small group of wolves too. You can also kill dragon in early game easily because there's no hierarchy. 9. NPC can't jump anymore. And it can be exploit easily by the player. That's a some of the reasons why Gothic saga got buried in RPG genres these days. And seriously Gothic 3 is need for Remake version, more than Gothic 1 did.

Thanks. Muchly appreciated. Me & my dad used to play 1 & 2 as our first PC game together. We never had a good enough PC 3 for so I think it's due time I install all these mods & give it a shot. Great guide. Intergrating now...

Many thanks for making this video. It is extreamely helpful 👍

You are missing the MOST IMPORTANT mod of all ( it's a simple ini edit): the one that eliminates that abomination of a font that is called comic sans :D And while it is a pretty big performance hit, I'd recommend using the reshade that adds HBAO to the game. The visual quality is night and day.

C4G, I stumbled on your channel out of nowhere when trying to find more info about Gothic 1 classic for switch. I had already bought Elex 1 and never played it the way I should, couldn't enjoy the 30 minutes I tried playing it. After your videos on Gothic, Risen and Elex (I just avoided the spoilers on every video) and I got them all lol So thank you! These RPGs were the THING I needed in my life and was looking for a long time.

Union mod pack is great. I recently played throught with it, and had lots of fun. Some of the quests that are part of lively towns mod (one of the mods included in the pack) focus too much on tedious tasks, but others impressed me with ammount of work put into them, so i feel like it balances out. Too bad lively towns mod is discontinued now, and adds almost no additions for orc mercenary path.

A massive thank you. Happy holidays

thank you so much. I am usually very hesistant to modding but your video was very easy to follow and now I am looking forward to playing a new Gothic 3 :)

Damn, great video! Thanks for highlighting the superb mods which make this already enjoyable Gothic experience even better. Might be time for another install.

Wow Nice Vid dude i loved all the old gothic games but i never played gothic 3 with the community update and didnt finished it cuz it was so buggy back then that modlist blew my mind i definitely need to replay that awesome game now thx alot bro :D

I wish gothic had a bigger following in America back in the day, RPG's would've been so much better today.

Very interesting guide, thanks! Completed G3 a few times, but mostly just laying with CP and some optimization .ini tweaks. I'll have to try something bigger next time.

Thanks, mate! Great Video (as always)

Oh C4G...you always know how to hit in that nostalgia

very helpful, thank you! So great that modding allows us to enjoy the full potential this gem always had.

Gothic 3 in my 2023? Couldnt be happier!! I wasnt aware of this mod, always played with the basic community patch so this is quite exciting news!

Thank you for this guide! It's amazing what this does to the game and saves a lot of research time. Just a side note, don't try to make your old saves work, I gave it a try and it was just a waste of time there's no way to do that. The game will end up with some crazy-looking bugs that you can not fix. You have to start a new game for all this to work.

I'll have a look at the mods available for G3 but outside of the fixes that will make the game available to play properly ... The game is usually fine to play but everyone has their preferences and thats A-okay ... I myself and currently finishing up another run on Gothic before moving on to Gothic 2 ... its always great playing again especially after a long while when your memory of things ingame isnt as clear as it once was

Already installed everything :D including Immersive World. Thanks for the vid!

Ty man, this was very helpful! I Love Gothic 3 and will play now.

Great info. as usual C4G. I'm wondering though if the language buttons on the toolbar do anything? Also I've always avoided the quest pack because it seemed like the English translation was google translate standard. Has this improved I wonder?

I've wanted to play Gothic 3 for awhile now and this video is perfect. The wait for BG3 is brutal so I need something to pass the time.

just installed it, waiting for files to integrate, love the channel, long time subscriber here

Installing it just now, didn't play gothic 3 in many years. Can't wait to see the improved experience.

Was the perfect video for me to get back into the game in 2023 :) Thanks!

Thank you for this. I played Gothic 3 a couple months back, after about 10 years, and while it was fun I couldnt shake the feeling that the game is old and it shows. Shame I didnt have your video back then but I guess its time for another play through

Great content, thanks for helping with installation!

Hi I got some invisible meshes of characters after installing the mods. Like bandits and orcs are just weapons or armor floating in the air. I also see some really weird thing with former slaves and other random NPCs in cities where their armor is like a separate object attached to them but they are not wearing the armor it's like they have 4 arms and when they sit down the armor stays in the same floating position. Also my find xardas quest is disappeared and it's now something like letter of Xardas

I c gothic I click video honestly I never tried any mods for gothic 3 so I'll give the mods a try

I like it almost Vanilla: Community Patch 1.75 + v1.75 Update Pack (about 30mb to restore armors) + Parallel Universe!

Hello! I love your content! I just installed everything on your very helpful list today. I did notice a minor change, when trying to install EasyPaladin mod, translation says this: "Light Paladin Requirements: ContentModBase This modification is not compatible with the following mods: Balance Ultimate" I noticed you installed them both though.

You didn't mention that if you change even a single mod during a playthrough the game will stop seeing your saves. If you do that then go to your Gothic 3 folder in Documents and copy files the the Mods1 folder into the Gothic 3 folder, basically one above. Worked for me but I only installed a compass

Thank you for the great tutorial! :)

great vid thank you for the step by step!

Hey I installed all the mods and I understand some text wont be in English but fire arrows are called only "en" which would be fine but Brenton also sells 4 recipes, all are called "en" and they give an item called "en" which isnt the fire arrows and there isnt anything else that can be done with it further, its just an item that goes into the miscellaneous section... Its a shame as I was going for an archer build, I think those recipes should make you arrows right? Anyone else has this as well or knows what to do please?

Modelers were too lazy to translate objects for English speakers. You can only remove [en] yourself by editing some of the game files. I've tried it myself, but it's not easy. It's hard to mess around in this pile of code. In the event that you play with Russian voice acting, there are no such problems there. Since these mods were made with an emphasis on Russian speakers

Excellent. Need to remember this!

Nooooo waaaaay? This is and always will be my favorite RPG everrrr. I have sooo many memories. I used to play this when my parents got divorced and this game helped me fight through that period in my life.

I never finished G3 back when it came out, I found it to be too unbalanced, once you liberated a few towns and all the orcs everywhere flipped out on you. I've tried replaying it afterwards, but just found it too clunky, plus the performance was awful with modern PCs. That is, on top of all the other issues with the game. Looks like this mod collection could make for a lot of fun. I'll definitely try it out. Thanks a lot for the comprehensive guide!

I had a problem once every time I'll use the click to quick loot the game will have a 50% to crash or something like that. I have the steam version..I wanted to ask if there's a better one or that doesn't matter. I mean I know about GoG version and steam. Maybe GoG is better but I play all gothic games on steam. What do you say? It matters? It doesn't?. Just as a side note maybe you would say in the video way but I already commented 😅 . I also love the way you pre recorded yourself and now u have more time to explain and you are focused on explaining. Some people like don't know that much about technology. But I'm curious about the game. I had a Romanian KZreadr play it and I started to like it especially the music. Now I wanna try it. I'm more of a gothic 2 fan
