Ydomu kaip bus su konsoliu portu ir bug'ais, nes pirmoji dalis sitose sferose, buvo kazkas nerealaus

o man pirma dalsi patiko tikrai,ir butent xbox versija losiau. nzn daug idomiau buvo negu Gothic4 ar Two worlds2 lost. svarbiausia nieko beveik nebuvau zinojes apie zaidima.uzsidejau ir ooo visai diomu, ne taip kaip puse story suzinai dar pries zaidimui iseinant.ir kai pasimi pati zaidima gaunas kad nusivili nes screenai bei video rodomi pries tai atrodo daug geriau. o cia buvo viskas ok. be to piratu tema gan idomi turetu but, nedaug zaidimu tokio tipo si tema ir yra.jeigu isvis yra.

this is ...SPARTA!!!!!

headshot!

Man šitas žaidimas yra paskutinė viltis, kad atgims mėgstamiausios "Gothikos" dvasia. Pirma dalis patiko, labai daug elementų buvo pasiskolinta būtent iš Piranha Bytes žinomiausio žaidimo - Gothic serijos. Kaip žinome Arcania pasišiukšlino. Risen aišku susikaupia ties kitais dalykais, bet tikiuosi bent jau RPG žaidimo stilius pasiliks panašus. Žiauriai laukiu ir nekantrauju pamatyt kaip bus priimtas žaidėjų.
