    Przed pięcioma minutami ukończyłem. Gra bardzo podobna do trzeciej części Gothic'a, co zresztą jest spowodowane wspólnym wydawcą. Mało błędów, ładna grafika, jeszcze lepsza grywalność, ciekawy wątek główny. Troszkę krótka (30 godzin gry), ale to może nawet lepiej...

    Haha, beat it in 24 hours and 53 minutes. :)
    The final boss is way more interesting than most final bosses, especially in RPGs. :)

    Excellent graphics (i almost believed to be in a jungle myself) and good old role-paying make this game a good choice. Though interface is not so good as it could be.

    I was pleasantly surprised that Risen is as fun as it is. It overcomes the clumsiness of the Gothic series and provides a rich world and a unique, yet challenging fighting mechanic. While there are a small variety of enemies throughout the game, the ones you do end up fighting take some work to kill. The graphics are pretty good, and the music is great, almost memorable. The interface isn't so great though, and in some areas readability suffers. Overall it's a solid RPG well worth the investment to enjoy.

    Not bad, but lacks variety of Monsters, Armor and Weapons, has like a dozen in total. The performance is good, but not for a game with this graphics.

    It's what Gothic 3 should be from the points of gameplay, performance and interface.

    Though the plot is a bit... strange.

    If you like Gothic 1 & 2, you will like this game. It's exactly the same thing, but different story, better graphics ...
