I am playing Gothic 2 now, it is great, I love it.
I haven't played G1 because of cheesy controls.
Gothic 2 has excellent combat system and quest is also intriquing with many sidequests plus you will have almost different stories playing with three different classes.
Another advantage IMO is that it is made by european developers. I became a bit tired from expressions like -I'll be back-. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />
Anyway if you need advise or just wanna share thoughts go to rpgdot.com forums, plenty of info there.
OHh and I have a question to those who played the german version. How is it? Is it really so much different from english? I mean the quality of actors.
