So far so good. No crashes. Nvidia drivers fixed graphical glitches.

In the survey I rated this game without thinking about Gothic franchise, because it doesn't feel like a Gothic game. Game looks and plays decent but is too heavily casual friendly which takes roughness from original Gothic. The only similarities are character names.

World feels very restrictive (invisible walls, can't swim, climbing only in various spots, not every ladder is interactive, you can't pick all arrows that are visible etc). Also why you can't fight with a pickaxe or open scroll addressed to fire mages. Every item is highlighted by an arrow, yuck.

Pacing is really off. NPC's talk very slowly and they repeat the same phrases when you can't skip them at all. Protagonist is completely different character, not very likeable (same point with Diego, but I guess it's subjective). Also game is cutscene heavy which added to already restrictive world feels like a very linear game.

Combat system is interesting but it seems to be very abusable against AI enemies. I couldn't fight with NPC called Cayden at start, but after finishing his quest it worked. He instantly healed from 10% health to full HP which was very disappointing. Game is very easy, getting long sword so early in the game, winning a fight with a guy wearing guard armor in prologue without breaking a sweat. Killing pack of wolves or snapper with ease. If you lose a fight to a guard he instantly kills you, but in original he just takes your money when laughing at your face.

Story looks to be changed too much for me. I don't understand why intro is different. What's wrong with the old one? Why bloodwyn is guarding a gate, when it could be brand new character. Graphics are pretty but too bright and colorful, doesn't look that grim at all.
This game is basically another Arcania wanna be Gothic. It's a decent game by itself, but not very similiar to the classic game. I didn't like it.

Early Access Review
I really like this game but it's just so frustrating to see how development is going the bad way.
It looks like this game is making one step ahead and two steps backward right after.
Why you are adding so minor things to the game like new model for bandages or you making so big changes to balance when it's not even so broken (by the way you ♥♥♥♥♥♥ it up more).
This game needs solid optimalization. It was running really poorly already, but after one patch I'm getting even less fps than before, it's ridiculous. Please focus on optimalization and some major bugs like items that don't appear right after you open locker.
People that bought this game seems to have big hopes for this title, but if you are going to keep releasing patches like that you will break it. I can't recommend this game until devs start to releasing some patches that improve game performance instead of adding useless elements.
