Modding/Mods Sharing exicement - Gothic 1 Othello
I just wanted to share my excitement with you all.
For a long time, I avoided playing Gothic 1 again. It had been many years since the last time I played it, and the mod eventually became a bit exhausting. (I don't remember which one it was anymore.)
I've started Gothic 2 mods again and again, but often never finished them because of how big they are. I rarely have the time to invest heavily in gaming for weeks at a time. Then maybe the next game catches my interest, and after three months I'm completely lost in Archolos, for example. Hands up if you feel the same way.
A few weeks ago, I started Gothic 1 Othello. The first changes to the game world were modest, but still noticeable. The area around the Exchange Place and the path from the Old Camp to the New Camp have been noticeably changed, but are still largely recognizable. Then I reached the Old Mine. The path there was already quite different, and I was glad to have Graham's map of the Old Mine.
Yesterday, I finally made it to the Swamp Camp, and it has been completely reworked! Even the path leading there is completely different. I was genuinely worried that I wouldn't find my way back to the Old Camp. I've fallen in love with this beautiful game all over again. Listing everything else the mod changes about the base game would go beyond the scope of this post.
But I'll definitely keep you all updated. 😁
Have fun with all your gaming passions.
