Way too laggy to enjoy right now, but I'm looking forward to it being optimised. This would be perfect if it ran smoothly.

The Ape Escape sequel we all have been waiting for!

With a bit more polishing and work, I can see myself enjoying this game. There's potential with the character's movement.

I was a productive person until I got this game, and it's still in Early Access.

Most fun I've had from a sandbox game in a while.

For me, playing Gothic 3 was a lot like owning an old pair of underwear.

On its own, it's nothing impressive. But put it over your head, and you can be the life of the party for a total of 10 minutes, at the expense of your dignity and sanity, leaving you to question "Why am I doing this again?" and remembering you're in too deep to stop now. After all, Gothic 3 can be a great time sink when your eyes and ears are covered. Sure, it's deceptively fun while it lasts, but it'll leave you feeling a sense of remorse when the party ends.

I'm not game to play it without the community patch from the reviews I've seen, and judging of what I've played so far. All things considered, I enjoyed exploring for the most of it, given I would deliberately have to ignore awkward camera controls, occassionally frustrating optimisation, half-arsed animation and a game-breaking mountain jumping option.

The last offender, when I discovered you could stumble upon end-game with ease detered me from playing.

Overall, got my kicks out of it, but I wouldn't say Gothic 3 holds up as a decent game in this age.
