You can't complete Gothic without killing enemies, but there are quite a few ways to do it.

Didn't you enlighten me about the existence of a G2 playthrough in 40 minutes? Where the protagonist almost doesn't kill anyone.

I don't know how to do that.

Either follow the rules of the Russian language or GTFO.

LOL, illiterate, low-class internet trolls have taken over the entire internet.

Indeed :smile20:

I personally prefer killing bandits and humanoids in general, because they drop loot!

The essence of an RPG lies not in just one thing.

I don't know how to do it.

o_O then who does?
You smell like a liar!(I sniffed you)
I don't know how) I only watched videos about Gothic 3)

The essence of an RPG is to have fun, just like with any other game.

Liz was talking about a speedrun, but I don't know which part he was referring to.

Many games have quick walkthroughs available. However, you obviously won't be able to fully immerse yourself in the role of your character in just 10 minutes.

and you won't be able to enjoy the world.

I don't know how it's physically possible to complete Gothic in 40 minutes, whether it's the first or second game.

ultimately, what matters most to me is the world itself and the journey through it. Whether or not to role-play is secondary. IMHO. I get more enjoyment from exploring the world, simply walking around the city or some territories, talking to NPCs, interesting stories, and so on.

We were playing Icewind Dale with Lock, and in general, I didn't care about the plot or whether I was role-playing my characters. But I remembered various characters, their quests, some situations, places, etc. That is, I got enough impressions.

Exploring the mechanics of the world. I guess that's what you could call it. And everything else distracts from this, including role-playing.

It's generally quite difficult to play as Aivind, although you can try:smile17:

in general, everyone has their own reason to love RPGs, and there's no need to impose one's opinion on others.

Liz mentioned that for all three games, it was the same person, a world record holder for all three parts. In general, yes, of course, there isn't the same enjoyment from the role-playing, the world, and the atmosphere, but I think there's a certain interest in such a speedrun, it's like solving a complex logical puzzle, because you need to very cleverly and intelligently plan everything out, and before that, you need to study the entire game in great detail.

This requires a lot of grinding and dedication.
