✅✅✅✅Gothic 3 Twilight of the Gods is a sequel to Gothic 3. The main character, after teleporting with Xardas to unknown lands, observes his friends. It turns out that peace does not last long because Thorus and Gorn, together with their people, start a war. The Nameless One is angry that he has shed so much blood, suffering and challenges for this land and they do not appreciate his deed. He returns to Myrtana to unite Myrtana and end the war once and for all.

✅✅I played with the Community Patch mod
✅Reworked locations, new types of weapons, new armor and opponents.
✅Continuation of the story from G3;
✅Slightly improved graphics;
✅In the Polish dubbing, the hero has a raised and nervous voice because Myrtana is at war again and he had to come to win Myrtana over again
✅Quite interesting missions
✅Some dialogues are really funny
✅New monsters, swords, armors and characters
✅You can find the eyes of Innos and the Cup of Cor Kalom.
✅The soundtrack is the same as in Gothic 3, which is a masterpiece
✅You can meet old friends.
✅At the very beginning of the game, we know why we came to Myrtana and what we will be fighting for

❌Poor optimization (sometimes there are cutscenes)
❌Lots of bugs
❌poor, not without many bugs fight with the final boss in the game (a bug in the wall or a fragment in it on my YT)
❌You can't get to Varant and Nordmar
❌We can't talk to many NPCs in the game unless we have the appropriate quest related to them

Waste of time, play original Gothic 3 with community patches instead

Ich habe mich nach all den Jahren entschlossen mich mal wieder an Götterdämmerung zu wagen, ein Spiel welches damals als lächerliche Beleidigung für die Gothic Community galt, voll mit bugs und anderen Problemen. Habe es mir jetzt mal im Angebot für 2,49 EUR besorgt und tatsächlich eine relativ "gute" Spielzeit damit verbracht. Ich habe das Spiel komplett cheatfrei durchgespielt und mir eine menge Zeit dabei genommen, allerdings nicht 100% aller Quests beendet. Vorab; ich wusste worauf ich mich da einlasse, da ich das Spiel vor zig Jahren einige male angespielt hatte und auch einfach noch ein bisschen Zeit in der grandiosen Welt von G3 verbringen wollte ohne ein auswendig gelerntes Spiel wieder anzufassen.
Die Story ist kein offizieller kanon und daher widme ich ihr keine große Aufmerksamkeit. Ich muss allerdings sagen dass sie mir im groben(!) tatsächlich ganz gut gefallen hat. An sich überhaupt eine Hauptstory zu haben ist mal was anderes im Vergleich zum üblichen non-linearen open world feeling von G3. Viele Quests waren schlicht bescheuert und sinnlos. Besonders die beiden Questreihen der Torwächter von Gotha und Vengard. Hat schon meme potenzial. Die zweite Hälfte des Spiels hat mir da schon besser gefallen und ein bisschen diversität in das questen reingebracht. Über schlechtes coding und unbefriedigende Dialoge kann das allerdings nicht hinwegtäuschen. Wenigstens sind die deutschen Synchronsprecher dieselben soweit ich das erfasst habe und der Protagonist haut auch ein paar heftige Sprüche raus, abseits von "Es werden Veränderungen kommen" und "Ich bin ein Bürger Myrtanas" - das kommt einem echt aus den Ohren wieder raus.
Ich musste einige male Google verwenden um diverse NPCs zu finden die in Dialogen bezüglich des Standorts absolut nicht erörtert wurden, wenn man Glück hat steht mehr im Tagebuch aber sonst heisst es frei Schnauze suchen und finden, oder eben googlen. Da hätte man sich mehr Mühe geben können und müssen. Was mir ansonsten auch positiv aufgefallen ist sind neue Rüstungen und Waffen die sowohl hübsch anzusehen als auch nützlich sind. Das Balancing ist allerdings ziemlich off, leveln geht absurd schnell dank komplett übertriebenen xp rewards für Quests. Muss allerdings dazu sagen dass der Endboss auch kein Sahneschleck ist.

Gothic 3 Götterdämmerung oder Forsaken Gods ist ein durchschnittliches RPG welches nach längerer Zeit des aufarbeitens tatsächlich komplett bugfrei ist. Es bietet kein Vergleich zur üblichen Qualität der Gothic und Risen Reihe und ich empfehle den Kauf nur wenn man ein gutes Bild davon hat was einen hier erwartet- sonst rennt man schlicht vor eine Wand der Enttäuschung.
Hatte generell aber ein ganz interessantes Spielerlebnis und daher gibts den Daumen hoch von mir.

Ah, Gothic 3: Forsaken Gods the game that somehow managed to be both a masterpiece and a car crash at the same time. Released as a patch of a patch to the Gothic 3 saga, it’s a true gem for hardcore fans of the series who can forgive the most unpolished of diamonds. A nostalgic love letter to the Gothic universe, it feels like the game devs just threw a few extra hugs and high-fives into the chaotic story to give us something, anything, to wrap up the tale of the Nameless Hero.
Sure, it wasn’t great at launch. The bugs, the broken quests, and the AI that seemed to be stuck in a trance could have made you wonder if this was the Forsaken Gods or a Forsaken Game. But for the true fan who’s lived and breathed every dragon-slaying, zombie-smiting, mind-boggling questline of the Gothic universe, this game is just the warm, slightly glitchy embrace you've been waiting for.
Easter eggs? Oh, they’re here. They’re just cleverly hidden, like a Gothic treasure chest that's locked behind a door you can't open until you’ve found the key that’s hidden in a cave full of bugs, and yes, more bugs. But for those of us who played Gothic 1 and 2, it’s still an emotional journey seeing the Nameless Hero wandering around, trying to make sense of a world that doesn’t make sense. It’s like reuniting with an old, broken friend who doesn’t remember your name but still insists on helping you fight orcs.
In the end, Gothic 3: Forsaken Gods is a glorious mess that only a true Gothic fan can appreciate. It’s rough around the edges, and its story might feel like a bad dream trying to connect the dots, but for us, it’s the perfect kind of nostalgia. So, dust off your old save files, brave the bugs, and embrace the chaos. The Nameless Hero’s journey may have been forsaken, but for us true fans, it never ends.

Pure ♥♥♥♥.Worst mod ı ever played.And no, this is not bigger than a mod.This just a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ linear mod.
And a advice:
If you still want to play,ı suggest not play right after gothic 3 or any gothic game.This game ♥♥♥♥ all francise.I mean quality drop every little single game but you can still love Gothic trilogy. (Dont count Arcenia) Gothic 1 and 2 perfect games and Gothic 3 mid-good game but after that there is no good Gothic unfortunetly.

+ The Gothic magic, especially the Gothic 3 flavor is back with a large world, much freedom, skill progression, sneaking, hunting, many hidden chests and wonderful plants to discover and caves to explore.
+ A proper sequel for around a third of the duration of Gothic 3 if you do quests in a certain order. This time around, there is a way in which the game finishes more quickly and 2 other options if you want a longer play.
+ A good world if you want to relax, play, level up and explore. I played this straight after Gothic 3 since I wanted some more of the same kind of fun and it was perfect.

- The game makes a bad first impression through the first quests. This is what made terrible videos of it on the Internet and made me start and abandon it a few years ago after the first few minutes. Thankfully, these are just a few quests and it gets much better then, especially after some leveling and the other quests will be more interesting. You will also find out why the first few quests were the way they were (not to spoil anything, but if you progress through the story around 3 quarters, it will explain that the world was in disorder and many characters had a sort of curse/illness that made them behave unusually). Maybe this could have been explained in the beginning to avoid the sudden mad house effect but it gets better and makes sense later on.


~ The nameless hero now has a much more detailed personality which manifests through dialogues and detailed monologues given to other characters on how they are unworthy and he will make a new order. This all makes sense for the end of the story in Forsaken Gods. However, more different from the previous character that would take your path based on your decisions, here there is only one which you will get to see. More like the Witcher as in a clear personality that you do not get to choose.
~ The melee system has had some modifications probably due to the later patches. I personally did not like it since it made humanoid enemies able to block any attack indefinitely. This is especially silly when fighting a group of enemies and one of them stands still and interrupts your attack like a boulder. But besides this, most of the melee fighting is the same and the magic and bow based fighting are the same as in Gothic 3.
~ There were some modifications made to the skill requirements and skill costs. Basically, with many of the same exact weapons from Gothic 3, a bow that I had in Gothic 3 midway through my playthrough, I now held in my inventory and could not equip due to a higher skill requirement. The bow was exactly the same in name, appearance and had similar damage but now, the threshold to equip it was higher, skill points costed more after a certain point and the game is smaller than Gothic 3, and I could only reach about 2 thirds of the maximum level that I had in Gothic 3.


* I strongly recommend that you use a walkthrough, especially if you want to enjoy a few tens of hours out of this game, find the best weapons and see all the quest outcomes.
* As in Gothic 3, there are 3 endings, one of which is much shorter in time, quests and fight to achieve. This means that if you want to have a few extra levels and see all the quests in the game, you should find the longest path which includes going first to Thorus instead of Gorn and a few other interesting elements which you might find in a walkthrough guide. The endings here are not different in the main ending such as was the case of Gothic 3 where the state of the world and factions was greatly affected, but it is different in the sense that you will get to see more quests, find out more about the backstory, get to earn a few more levels and have a few hours of more fun.
* Adjust the difficulty settings to have fun especially in the big mob fights. This game is a lot of fun and rigid design choices on medium or higher difficulty disappear on the easy difficulty.

Interesting

It's even worse than I remembered

So I actually kinda enjoyed the DLC, I didn´t encounter numerous invisible walls as other says, because it is fixed now with patch in steam properties. Nice thing is that the DLC has many more weapons, but the con is that you probably won´t use them at all that much (would be the best if it was included in base game). The story of DLC is very short, if you look list of all quests then it seems it has enough quests but you have to choose 1 of 2 sides and then quests are cut to half which is sad. Also DLC is not that open world like base game because the story is more linear, that it won´t let you do quests in other towns if you run from start elsewhere, you actually have to play by the quests. DLC also says it has improved combat, which I saw only in one new move, also new monsters, but I saw only 1 and the boss. Btw the story takes place only in myrtana region which is pure copy of base game and then they just removed some things, NPC, etc. So if you have knowledge of places where things were from base game then it would probably be there. Monsters are randomized, but devs didn´t use much variety of monsters. Also monsters respawn. I know the DLC wasn´t developed by Piranha instead other company but in reality it seems like it was made by 1 guy. Just like someone else said in reviews, NPCs can talk in 3 voices, groups of paladins or other are pure copies of one entity and they did not mind to atleast use other heads/faces. Some villages where NPCs were are now just empty. New buildings are put on past caves etc. Story is not great nor terrible. Other quests are just meh, mostly taking NPCs with you around map like taxi. And no point to explore myrtana and grind for better equipment.

So it is okay but don´t have big expectations.
