It is very buggy yes. Installing unofficial patch 1.3 helps. http://www.worldofrisen.de/english/download_82.htm

I did some research on that unofficial patch, and there are 93 pages in a thread complaining about broken quests. I would not suggest anyone use anything unoffical, your asking for trouble.

If there is no other chance to climb then I say try the patch. After that the only thing that might help, at least for me it did, is reinstalling the game and save very often.
I still get stuck sometimes if I try to climb a ledge and have to use task mager to terminate the process. But after reloading it works most of the time.
If the climb fails over and over at the same location try an older save.

The trick to climbing is simple, if you want to simply pull yourself up and over an edge, stand as close to the edge you want to climb and jump straight up. Your character will automatically pull himself up. If you try jumping into the cliff edge while moving forward it won't work you need to be stationary for best results. Use the Levitation spell if you want to get across an area that doesn't allow you to jump straight up to. Jumping across a gap and falling short will not allow you to automatically pull yourself up, this isn't Tomb Raider. Get that through your head as you play and you'll discover that there is no bug to climbing up ledges, just learn the controls and physics of the game and you'll be fine.

It's the OP's problem, not the game. I've been playing Risen 1 long before it hit Steam and have gone through it 4 times. It is not buggy. I've never had a crash, lock-up or glitch. It's actually the most stable game that's come out of Europe. Which, granted, isn't saying much, but still.

To both of you. Just because it is working for you doesnt mean it is working for everyone.
Of course OPs behaviour is silly, requesting his money back just because of a clipping issue.
But you two make complete fools out of yourself. This is not the most stable game that was developed in europe. That statement got to be a joke.
The gaming forums related to the game like the official forums are full of people who have bugs.
The engine is very glitchy and that is known too.

It's a known bug caused by modern PC systems.

To solve it you can try to force VSync in your graphics card settings (not in the game menu). So open up your nvidia or catalyst center and force vsync while playing risen.

enabling vsync in my graphic cards settings solved it for me. I did it like the guy in the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8IpHPAUKZw

You should ALWAYS have Vsync ON in all games.
That's why I had no issues, cause I'm one of those intelligent gamers you may of heard about. Unlike the rest of this thread.

If you have a powerfull PC you can keep vsync on all the time and it really helps with those older games but if you play new games with high hardware recommendations you could run into some trouble.
If your pc can not produce the 60 fps it needs to sync there maybe problems.
I read reports of performance lags and even overheating cpus and gpus, related to the use of vsync on older machines.
