Arcania: Gothic IV
The hero of the Gothic saga has fulfilled his destiny and became King Robar
III. Once he recklessly agreed to deliver a strange amulet for a blind lady,
and from that moment on, his soul became corrupted. Now all the former hero
can think about is power and conquest – but not for long, as a new hero has
risen somewhere else…
ArcaniA: Gothic 4 is the successor to Gothic 3 and based upon the stories
of the previous games, but does not continue it. It is a single-player, role-
playing game with a “back-to-basics” approach, and features which have been
slimmed down.
Taking place a decade later than the previous game, players take the role of a
new hero whose motivation and goal is to destroy the forces who have massacred
his loved ones.
Unlike other Gothic series games, the world map here is much smaller. Although
each location can be explored fully, once at a new location there is no going
back to a previous area. The plot is linear. Through the series of quests, the
storyline progresses as each objective is reached, eliminating guesswork.
There are no guilds or factions to align with, and no in-game morality code so
the player doesn’t need to worry about being thrown in jail for opening the
wrong chest, stealing an item or killing someone. In addition, the amount of
inventory items that can be carried has no cap.
There are three main classes (mage, ranger and warrior), skill trees and
levelling up as experience increases. Battles are action-based. Choose to
fight with ranged or melee weapons, or cast one of the three types of spells
(fire, lightning or ice). Spells increase in strength in alignment with the
player’s levels. Gather plants and minerals to create potions and other items
using a simplified crafting system. Upgrades to armour and weapons can be
purchased with the gold amassed from fallen foes or quest rewards.
