L'Hiver mod is pretty fun who else plays with it?

[BimboGooch]

Tiss my first real playthrough of this game. I played the game as a child and young teen, but never got to chapter 2. I like how I dont have to just wait till end game to get the best use of bonus stat potions, since the bonus stats dont effect the leveling skill LP. But it just makes it a lot harder which I enjoy. Since it forces you to kinda explore more which I would have done either way. But if I did that with the base game, I feel as if it would have gotten fairly easy too fast.

The reason I quit gothic 1 and just watched the story on it, after chapter 2 or 3. Is due to how brain dead easy it got as a melee warrior. And the fact it was just running from one side of the map to the other and repeat, and there was no mobs to kill half the time lol. Which Gothic 2 kinda reduced that by a lot.

im hardly into chapter 2 right now after 38 hours in game time. And im just doing the raven expansion I think, since I couldnt really progress too much in the main game, as there wasnt any quest I could find to help level more so I get rekt by orcs. Im probably only half way done with the raven expansion if that.

Anyways, I've died many times in L'hiver. But the progression feels far more rewarding. And I like how im not flooded with gold.

EDIT: I just got to the RAVEN boss. Anyone who is thinking of downloading this mod I say 100% do so. But just keep in mind, if you do Raven expansion right after you get to chapter 2 you have will a super hard time trying to end Raven. I recommend just doing all the quest you can there, then leaving the island to progress the main game. Come back when youre a lot stronger.

EDIT:-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just a tip for when you have to beat main bosses. I found this out after trying to beat Raven(back to CH2 of the main game :^)). You really need to prep for it, that means just to kill raven you might have to play a lot more of the game then come back to kill him. So be prepared for that. This mod is 100% worth downloading and so much more rewarding to do things.

I don't like the modern "space" style of Elex. I prefer the old style of Gothic and Risen.
But yeah PB make great games - but they are always very buggy after release :D

For Gothic 3 you should use the Community Patch.

I like any genera honestly. So xD. More enjoyment for me :^).
And for any PB game I use patched lmao. Unless im playing them on launch day. Usually patches add a little more difficulty and tang to the play :^)

I mod really almost any game I play.

Mods are good :D I really like it when games support mods. And if possible I use a lot of them.

Currently using some for G2 as well:
- DirectX11 Renderer
- Quickloot
- Sprint Mod
- a mod that shows the value of the bars (healt & mana) in numbers. (health also for enemies).

The last three are so called Ninja Mods.

Lhive has all those minus the value bars xD. Cuz I have quick loot and sprint. Well not for chest, but if I right click when im looting a body, itll loot all. And ive had sprint the entire time.

This mod I downloaded was a huge all in one though I think. I also did download I think "yup"??? not sure, w.e added shields.

LHiver has it already included? Then you have a different version for sure :D I had to install them seperatley

Well like I said, it could have been an all in one mod. I dont remember, it was 4 months ago :^)

If you don't like sifting through the inventory I'd suggest the advanced inventory mod as well. Makes it to where you can use your mouse in the inventory menu and adds categories. Just saves a lot of time. You do need Union though, but you probably have it I'm guessing.

and it's on Steam Workshop if you've been using that instead. Keep forgetting G2 has a workshop now.

I would love to see all the world changes from l'hiver edition combined with the features from the Nostalgic Mod <3

Ive never played that mod.

First time playing this mod and I really like it so far. Especially the bigger city :)

Only problem so far is too much vegetation in my opinion. I mean, at least keep the paths free :D

Also, it seems that most weapons have not been rebalanced :(

The baths usually seem free. The only thing I dont like about the mod, the main bosses you have to prep for. I went to fight raven. Cant do that at level 21 with merc gear and an orc slayer and 100 str 45 one handed. 300 hp. He has 2k HP and really good armor and kills me in a few shots. It is the only thing I dont like too much, since it feels like the pacing is ♥♥♥♥♥♥ then xD. BUt not like the biggest deal, ill come back way later and kill him.

And well the weapons dont need a tweaking really as they tweaked the HP I think, and armor of units. So youll over all deal a lot less damage. You deal and they deal at least 15 damage no matter what. So even at level 21. Goblins can be a pain in the ass if they swarm you lmao. Not like theyll kill you, but youll end up having to use some potions. Or food.

here I thought I was done with the raven expansion :^) BUT the bright side about the raven boss being hard. is it feels like he should be. I dont know how he is in the base game as I never got far in the vanilla. But bosses feel like what they should be. Very powerful.

If you get upset just push through it, I rarely get upset at it. Just the raven boss I did since now I have to re walk through the temple to get too him once I try again. Ima use shadow beast summon scrolls next time after using a CC spell on him. See how that works.

It is nice knowing im not just OP this early in the game (even though I have like 47 hours now lmao.
