Gothic II Complete Classic (Nintendo Switch) Review - Hey You! The End! Part II
8Here's a link to our Gothic Classic Retrospective Review - https://youtu.be/6Z1QVRmsi9U
Just like Gothic Classic before it, Gothic II Complete Classic is a difficult game to score when considering what it offers now vs. what it pioneered back in 2003. If you’re simply looking for a classic third-person RPG that’s accessible and fun to play, Gothic II Complete Classic is difficult to recommend thanks to a brutal difficulty curve exacerbated by inconsistent controls. On the other hand, something is compelling about its janky, sandbox-style world ripe for exploitation – whether intended or not.
For every sudden death by an unexpected orc or lowly farmer more skilled in combat than my hero, I would encounter something beneficial and equally unexpected. Shape-shifting and summon spells helped me cheese many a boss encounter, while an ever-multiplying stack of arrows provided both infinite ammunition and gold if I was willing to sell them on at a time for minutes on end. And yes, that makes Gothic II Complete Classic sound like a buggy and inconsistent experience – which it sort of is – but I’d argue there’s fun to be had playing and discussing games that aren’t so polished and directed to the point everyone has the same experience.
