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...

Только узнал о ней, на Т-Ж была статья. Хорошая?

I liked the beginning and the first few hours a lot. After that it became a bit of a grind fest unfortunately. It really became apparent that the island is really small and you have to run around a lot. The speed potion really becomes a must. Also, I am a bit of a noob, but I still felt that there were way too many skeletons and wargs and that I was a bit too weak at the end of the game. Without str and/or dex potions you will really not be able to finish this mod. All in all thanks for making the mod I would give it a 7/10

I just finished the mod. A small island with a very cozy experience. I had to ask for help a couple of times to progress in the story :lunar2019grinningpig:. Maybe I’m just too dumb for the pre-walkthrough era of RPGs.

Tak, działają. Muzyka włączona. Pliki również posiadam

@Lopez The Heavy: Dopiero teraz zauważyłem odpowiedź;

Czy działają Ci inne dźwięki, np. otrzymywania obrażeń, wypicia mikstury itp.?
Czy w menu masz włączoną muzykę?
Czy w tym folderze masz pliki ".ogg": "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\39510\3316293899\_work\Data\Music\Arkona"?

Nie wiem, co jest przyczyną, stąd takie pytania. :steamhappy:

Modyfikacja posiada autorski soundtrack, jednak z jakiegoś powodu nie odtwarza się on u mnie
