Nah bro.
All the arguments for that boil down to muh atmosphere, which G2 also has in spades, and everything else is better in it too.

It's actually ahead of it it's time and the controls are satisfying AF when you actually learn them.

"But muh Mario 64 controls!"

worst controls I've ever used

Back then it was surely easier to commit and get good at them. These days it surely is easier to just drop it and play something else/watch a let's play.

how the isn't there some 3rd party mod to fix the controls? I wonder if I could cook up something in autohotkey

more like underrated

I am annoyed that this game has a single specific soundtrack rendition of the mercenary leader's theme and it is never on any soundtracks. You hear it so much passing by one guy at a campfire on one of the routes so it should definitely be in the OST.

Oh sorry they are called New Camp in the first game.

Check out Archolos Chronicles of Myrtana, works great on my old machine

Agree. Gothic II, while still a classic is somewhat overwrought. Gothic I, while suffering from many quality dips, is a better paced, more digestible experience.
Much like Banjo Kazooie's superiority over Tooie

The controls are fine once you learn them, just unorthodox

the correct opinion

I don't speak Nazi

gothic 2 immediately triggered my build optimization autism with the herbs/alchemy shit too badly to continue playing with without driving myself crazy

I've never played G2 but G1 is a classic
