Of course if you'd like to maintain a greater sense of immersion, you don't have to take advantage of those features. Teleportation stones will also be marked on your map to make it easier to quickly travel around the world. In a shift from previous Gothic titles, this one will make environmental navigation more convenient through its use of a quest tracker and minimap. The time of activation for chaining will reduce each time though, so you'll have to have pretty decent reflexes to keep the sequence going, which seems kind of Witcher-esque. If you hit the attack button again, you'll chain your attacks, and if you're good enough you can keep the combo going for multiple hits. For melee combos, after a slash your weapon will glow blue for a brief period. This can be used for bow and arrow combat, though if you take the time to line up and connect with a shot outside of lock on mode you'll deal more damage. YES NO To actually fight enemies throughout the large game world, there's a lock on system that lets you dial in on specific foes. There will be guilds you can join up with though, some related to combat and some to non-combat disciplines, that'll give you access to more abilities and options for play. To go about powering up, you'll have a skill tree that follows a few branches and allows for differing play styles, which is meant to be more convenient than the trainer system found in something like Gothic 3. Magic will also be at your disposal, so you can do things like wing fireballs at foes instead of trying to slice them with your sword. You'll get quite a few bits of equipment as you move through the game, from one handed swords to larger two handed maces, as well as axes, bow and arrows, and lots more. Associated with each pocket of culture will be distinct armor sets and weapons, each of which you can pick up and outfit on your character. Initially you start out on a small island and learn the basics of movement and combat, but soon unlock different sections of a larger island and meet with seven different cultures throughout the game's run, which is supposed to be 70+ hours or so. The Nameless Hero from previous games is actually now the villain, a ruler of the land drunk with power, who burns down your hometown at the beginning of the game.
Set in a giant open world, Arcania puts you in the role of a new protagonist.
#Gothic 3 teleporter stones series#
If you're not familiar with the Gothic series of epic action-RPGs, then the fact that Arcania is basically the fourth in the series and being handled by a different developer probably doesn't mean much to you.
