wow, I completly overlooked Gothic back when it first came out. I've been dying for a decent RPG game ever since I finished NeverwinterNights HordesOfTheUnderdark and wasn't too impressed.

Would you recommend playing Gothic1, or just getting Gothic2? How long is Gothic1? If its only 20-30 hours, I could finish it over a weekend, no big deal. But if its 40-50+ hours, then its gotta be really up there with Baldur's Gate and Torment (and *cough* Dom2) to take up so much time.

Edit: Gothic3 is coming out in about a year.. hmmm
isn't gothic 1 available at amazon anymore ?

gothic 1 is rather short , 30-50 hours i think .
i bought it AFTER gothic 2 and found it still very nice but gothic 2 is just better .
if you get gothic 1 cheap though buy it and play it before you play gothic 2 .

gothic 2 is longer than gothic 1 about 2-3 times bigger .

for baldurs gate 2 with throne of baal expansion i think i needed more time though .

with gothic / gothic 2 they are very addictive until you have them through . i played it like in a flush until i had it through
but beware especially in gothic 2 the end is very frustrating
