Arkona

Description
Arkona is a total-conversion, standalone modification for Gothic 2 NotR, available fully in English language (including voiceover). Featuring a new world, new story, NPCs and about 10 hours of gameplay.

Our hero is Gerrin, an ordinary citizen of Khorinis.

The events in Arkona unfold after the Nameless one sails away from the island and Khorinis is slowly overwhelmed by the orc hordes. The city makes its last stand, however the paladins are heavily outnumbered.

As Gerrin sees it, he knows he doesn't have many options left. He can either die in battle, but he is no experienced warrior. The most probable case is that he would fell to slavery for the orcs. With that in mind, he decides to flee from the island on a small fishing boat. Rather die on a sea than be a slave to those filthy creatures, he thinks.

Exhausted and dehydrated, he finally reaches land. It is not the mainland as he had hoped. Instead he ended up on an island he has never heard of before. And there our story begins.

What secrets lurk inside the halls of the old shrine deep in the dark woods?
What or who are the militia men and the bandits looking for?
Why some people from the mainland went to this place intentionally in the first place?

Find out for yourselves...

Спасибо! Nice that Arkona excited you!) What do you think about translation of Arkona to Russian? Dgomez from World of Players prepared it.

@VagabondNS: Me too, when I was testing it before the release, I even walked with excitement to the beach to leave the island...

The mod was really interesting, the puzzle of the elements was really pleasing, please create more mods! :)

7/10, bardzo liniowy mod, ale ma ciekawe elementy i dobrą historię. Bardzo mała wyspa, dużo biegania w kółko. Momentami brakuje jakiejś solucji, której niestety nie znalazłem podczas gry. Czasami trzeba biegać po całej wyspie i patrzeć czy jakiś NPC nie dostał nagle nowej opcji dialogowej która popchnie grę do przodu, co potrafiło być irytujące. Ekonomia i balans to bardzo duży plus tego moda, ale jednak za dużo grindowania przy wchodzeniu w nowy rozdział. Niemniej na pewno warto zagrać.

Part 1:

Hi, I just finished the mod in about 10hours and I gotta say I had a lot of fun <3 I feel like it is too easy with Ice Block Cheeses (15 SP needed for it) and the tell of a coward running away from besieged city of Khorinis ending up as a "chosen" to defeat great evil is not that convincing :D

After all I had a lot of fun, I feel like the story with bandits could've been longer and more significant and less linear, but it has a potential for a rerun and chosing other options with finishing some quests earlier than others for new ways :D

The small island also has it's vibe, altho it could've been a bit more bigger, because sometimes I had feeling like it's clustered.

Part 2:

I've finished it with about 120-130 STR, 78% 1H, 10SP left and 20-21lvl. Im almost sure You could reach 170STR with ease and get Your hand on 170STR 2H Axe. I couldn't figure out what skin should I bring to the bandit, altho I didn't go for any skinning skill. Also blacksmithing feels like a big waste of points. You can easily buy any weapon You want at the end :)

I recommend everyone to try it out, it's really well made and I had no bugs :) Only Harpy glitched on a roof and last boss getting cheesed out with crossbow from behind the coffin :D
