It's coming!

I loved it when I originally played it. I am not sure how dated it will feel now. But I would love to give it another go. Specially since I never played the sequels.

Any Gothic fans here? Going to get the classic or going to wait for the remake?

Edit:

Here is the unedited list of fixes which will be incorporated into the Gothic 1 Switch port. This port is the original game code, no remastering, and no remaking, it is the port of the original code to the Nintendo Switch.

The following list of fixes will be made though:

Gothic is one of the only series that I fully believe needs the remakes. Without some fixes put in from moddb, the games border on unplayable now because they've just aged REALLY poorly. Glad they have a list of shit they're fixing though

Well, there is a remake already in works.

And you are right, the game doesn't look too great, and I have heard from couple of people that it's aged very poorly (at least the PC version). I am still going to give this a try though. Just to check it out. Maybe all the fixes, with controls and UI updates have made it playable.

Yeah the PC version is what I played, it just does not control right. It looks fine enough, but there was no playing

Yeah, it's a very old game. I remember it was a bit janky even for it's time, but if you can past those, they are great games. Maybe wait for the remake.
