they're both great games but G2 fixes a lot of the flaws of the first game and also has much more content so I do consider it superior
to be honest I feel like Gothic 1 only shines in the first chapter where you're doing sidequests around the whole colony, after that you're pretty much railroaded into doing the main quest with a couple of exceptions, not to say the main story wasn't fun but it could have been better, mainly in regards to all the backtracking you have to do constantly
not that G2 doesn't suffer from backtracking mind you, though the NOTR teleports do make it tolerable
