Gothic 2: Velen

Modification Type - New Story

Mod Localization:

Mod Information

In this modification, the player takes on the role of the pirate William. A rumour about an apparently heavily drunk old sailor, who one evening in a tavern bragged about his stories and alleged adventures, sent him and his captain Morgan on a long voyage: they sailed to a small island, far from the famous Myrtan Islands and coast, ruled by an extremely rich prince whose treasury overflows with gold and jewels. The voyage took several days, but the island does exist - Velen! Once they were there and had the information they needed, they hatched a plan. It should have been too easy... So simple that they were caught trying to break into the treasury and promptly thrown into prison. The sentence was decided the same day: execution of both of them. It was to take place the next morning. In the early hours of the day of the execution, the Prince had William brought in. Contrary to expectations, he made him an offer. An offer he could not refuse if he wanted to save his life and that of his captain. He might not know it yet, but if he accepted, he would soon be the one to decide the fate of all Velen...

Characteristics

  • Game time approximately 15-25 hours, depending on the style of play

  • Brand new story from the perspective of a new protagonist

  • A completely new, expansive game world, created with great attention to detail in the Gothic style, but at the same time much more detailed and offering many different interesting areas to explore

  • Many interesting, varied, often humorous characters, dialogues and main and side quests, mostly written in the familiar Gothic style

  • Many reworked from the original game and even some brand new daily routines for characters, meaningfully matched to their lives to make them more realistic and varied

  • Many new and partially adapted from the original game features and gameplay elements, such as free aiming similar to Gothic 3 with ranged weapons and magic, different ammo with different effects for ranged weapons, auto-save, repositioning status bars, colored target names, day and time display, redesigned pickpocketing and lock picking, and many, many more, most of which can be customized or turned off entirely if needed

  • Several unlockable achievements, both with and without Spine

  • Balance modified for modding with four different optional difficulty levels

  • Many new talents such as shield combat, cooking, fishing and mining various ores

  • Slightly redesigned graphical interface adapted to the modification

  • Several new models and textures, partially replacing the old Gothic 1 assets, but also partially replacing the somewhat unattractive Gothic 2 assets
