and tbh i don't read reviews because most of the time they are written but either fanboys of the game, people who don't have any experiences of the genre, or butthurt haters.

the reason im asking is because im a bit tight on money atm and im not entirely convinced by the demo, and as far as im aware there is no demos for the other gothic games.


I've palyed Arcania (Xbox) for a sort time period and I can only say :
don't play it, it has NO charm, no soul ! The quests are blablabla and the dialogs are blablabla too :
sort repeat : no Soul .. sad & bad !

Better spare your money, collect more money each month so you've enough at the time Larian Studios is bringing a new masterpiece on the market ! Okay, to be honest, I'm a big fanboy, but that's simple because their games ARE so good and you feel it in your bones that they've a Soul, that they are maked with passion & love and at the same time they didn't take it too seriously, if you know what I mean .
up Great ! Fantastic ! Awesome ! ... up

I've also not the money to buy many games. In the past I started buying & playing puzzle games too many, that I switched to RPG genre because of their RE-play-value and still I do, replay & replay ... Divnity games (DD & DKS in particular wink ! ). smile
And so time goes by while replaying rpg's and my coin purse don't get empty on buying new games biggrin

Just a small suggestion wink


On 7th of february 2015 : I start a new adventure in the Divinity world of Original Sin,
