Introduction

Diccuric is considered a truly historic project among the various mods for Gothic 1 and Gothic 2. It was with this in mind that attempts to develop large global mods on the ZenGin engine began. Unfortunately, the mod remained unfinished and contains a lot of technical and logical errors, but despite all these shortcomings, Diccuric still has its fans today and who knows, maybe one day we will be able to play an improved and corrected final version of the mod, or even its sequel.

About the game

• Diccuric is a global mod on the Gothic 1 platform that introduces us to a brand new story of young Ardaric. Although the storyline and lore of the mod is unrelated to the plot of Gothic, there are still some references to the original game. For example, we meet the characters of Homer and Fisk, who tell us a bit about their past in the Mining Valley. We can also find a book of poems that mention the kingdom of Myrtana.

• The mod contains a new story about the kingdom of Gatia. We will move around a huge location, which in its size does not match the island from Gothic 2. In the game, the system of wearing armor is slightly modified (now there are "penalties" of power for wearing it), a lot of new items, plants, runes and more are added.

• The mode's visuals have also undergone some changes: animations of moving vegetation and trees have been added, as well as new textures, items, monsters, and armor models from early versions of Gothic.

• Unfortunately, the mod contains many different bugs, both technical and in the logic of the story scripts and journal keeping. Despite this, the mod is really interesting to play, many quests are quite memorable and done unusually enough. Obviously, we could get a very large and rich game at the end (as Archolos did). It is worth mentioning the very good full Russian dub of the mod.
