| Gothic | Egmont Interactive;Xicat Interactive (Piranha Bytes) | 2001 | This nice German developed RPG adventure is set against the backdrop of a landscape savaged by war, the King of the human territories must find enough ore to forge weapons for his army to use in defence against the Orc Hordes. The King's mines are set in a large magical sphere and are worked by prisoners captured from across the kingdom. And it is into this sphere that you are thrown, charged with the task of delivering a letter – a letter that might just mark the turning point in the war against the Orcs. The Gothic world is constantly changing and evolving: events will occur that can alter the relationships between several groups of characters. NPCs are fully rounded with their own daily habits and relationships: they get up, work, go to bed, chat with each other and so on. More significantly, monsters cooperate with each other and are able to figure things out; they have individual perception. Some can be lured with food or noise, some will run away from bright light. Some can only hear or detect movement. Each character has the ability, with the correct training, to improve particular skills as the game progresses: training with the master of the sword, for example, will result in a character displaying noticeably more skilled swordsmanship. It is so much more satisfying to witness the effect of the skills you have learnt when they are visible in your character as oppose to a meaningless number rating, improving say, from 8 to 10. These 'optical' improvements are for the whole range of skills included in Gothic. The two different classes of magic (which are absolutely independent from each other) work along the same lines.*** [12]*** [53] | labelimagesubject |
| Gothic 2 | JoWood Productions (Piranha Bytes) | 2002 | You have torn down the magical barrier and released the prisoners of the Mine Valley. Now the former criminals of the forests and mountains are causing trouble around the capital of Khorinis. The town militia is powerless due to their low amount of force–outside of the town, everyone is helpless against the attacks of the bandits.***Re-released together with the Night of the Raven expansion on 2005-11-29 as [i]Gothic 2 Gold Edition[/i]. | labelimagesubject |
| Gothic 2: The Night of the Raven | JoWooD Productions (Piranha Bytes) | 2003 | "When you're in need of something and don't know where to find it, go to Khorinis. There you can surely buy it." -- Saying (author unknown) The mine valley of Khorinis. The glorious days of the once productive mines in this small seaside region were long over. Surrounded by the impenetrable magical barrier, the slaves eked out their miserable existence in this apparently natural prison. One brave man managed to burst the bonds of imprisonment. Following his own call to freedom, he ventured deep into the subterranean temples. Willing to do whatever was necessary, he went out to banish Evil and destroy the magical barrier forever. Spurred by the hatred of men long-suppressed, the prisoners streamed trough the only pass to freedom. No one in Khorinis had been prepared for this. Too long had they lived under the deceptive notion of security granted by the apparently indestructible magical dome. The small militia garrison could not put up enough forces against the onrush. After numerous bloody clashes, many captives escaped and found safety in the woods or rugged mountains of the surrounding countryside. The steadily escalating number of raids in the vicinity of the town wall and the bandits' ever-increasing boldness seemed to paralyze the whole town. Angered by the militia's inability to protect their farms, some of the farmers formed an alliance with the refugees, no longer willing to pay allegiance to the king. Khorinis is facing an uncertain future. Due to the farmers' decreasing production, more and more of the food deliveries do not take place, and the stocks diminish continuously. The militia's might ends at the town gate. Outside the town wall, nobody is safe from the bandits' armed raids. There is war in Khorinis. A civil war. But there is something else that could not be foreseen. Evil is not dead, rearing its ugly head again. But this time it is set on delivering the deathblow to humanity, and no one can stop it. No one?***Adds one more area to the game as well as re-balances the gameplay otherwise. Pretty much like a huge patch.***English version was released as part of the Gothic 2 Gold combined re-release (2005-11-29), never sold in English separately. | labelimagesubject |

Now it is time to travel to the realms of the mainland, where invading Orcs have enslaved the human kingdom. There are only a few free humans living in the nearly uninhabitable icy northlands of Nordmar and in the southern desert of Varrant, and a handful of rebels hiding in the mountainous forests of the Middle Realm.

| Tomb Raider | Square Enix (Crystal Dynamics) | 2013 | Probablemente el mejor Tomb Raider jamás hecho, aunque abusa un poco de los QTM y se nota la ausencia de puzzles. Aún así, la mezcla de acción-plataformas está mejor realizada que nunca. 8 de 10***Notes on tags: [spoiler] [b]Giant humanoids[/b] - the Oni are not explained what they really are, whether they are actually Japanese demons ([url=/groups/info/ogres]ogres[/url] really) or just some of the samurai who suffer from gigantism. [b]Undead[/b] - the Stormguard. Although nothing really suggests this except for that you can kill them by destroying their belt buckles, which presumably animate their dead bodies.

| Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons | 505 Games (Starbreeze Studios) | 2013 | (Jugado de principio a fin) Un juego que enfatiza el manejar a 2 personajes a la vez. Pros: -La atmósfera de cuento de los hermanos Grimm es inmejorable. -Las situaciones opcionales a lo largo de la historia. Cons: -Bastantes errores de plataformas y gráficos. -Los puzzles son excesivamente sencillos y en algunos casos muy repetitivos. -El manejo está lejos de estar bien logrado. -Un exceso de momentos en los que el juego te hace esperar porque sí: el mejor ejemplo son 2 manivelas en 2 niveles distintos que duran casi 3 y 5 minutos respectivamente en acabar de girar. 4 de 10***Developed from a prototype presented by The Story Lab in 2011.***Guide two brothers on an epic fairy tale journey from visionary Swedish film director, Josef Fares and top-tier developer Starbreeze Studios. Control both brothers at once as you experience co-op play in single player mode, like never before.

To get their help, he needs to find the Mage sanctuary on Taranis, also known as the Island of Thunder. Protected by the Guardians, the Mages search the mines of Taranis for crystals loaded with magic energy. Will the player join the Guardians to get in contact with the Mages? Or will he choose one of the other guilds in Risen 3 to reach his goals?***The retail versions are DRM free.
