This is my favorite RPG of all-time. Yes, it is a bitch, but you are so satisfied when you finish it. You actually feel like you accomplished something, instead of waltzing through a linear piece of shit game. And koki is right. You need to learn how to exploit the enemies and their a.i. to you advantage.

Any particular tips for dealing with those thrice damned wargs? Humaniods seem to be a matter of keeping it to one at a time and finding their rhythm, but I can't seem to dodge warg attack and they hit like a truck.

Use archery or magic on them.
Wargs are extremely tough and you probably won't be able to fight them easily until you've advanced a few chapters, IIRC.

Uh...since I've been putting my points in getting my swordsmanship up to snuff, I have skill in neither. So it's just make sure to see them first until I'm a whirlwind of death. That's a lot of running away, but I'm starting to get used to that.

Yes, because
real men sit at home and continually press buttons whilst watching a screen to prove their manhood.
Metaphor. Look it up.

An expansion makes a game longer
Yes, that's why wanting to remove the extension might be better for people who do not want to play a game that is too long.
As for my grinding comment, the problem is not with pest control, but simply with doing the same thing again and again. Different decor, different bits of story, but always the same gameplay. Gothic 2 NotR is long for the sake of being long, not because it is needed for the gameplay.

You fight Wargs like any other wolf. Every time you swing your weapon, they'll jump back one or two steps, giving you enough time to jump back one step to get more distance between it and you. Try to get all of them in front of you, and do the above to keep the pack under control. Only let one get close enough to you to hit. If things start getting too tense, you can always try to kill one quickly then haul ass out to recuperate.

I'm such a real man, not only have I beat Gothic 1, 2, and Risen while punching myself in the face, I can also watch Steel Magnolias and not cry all that much. :mad:

Paps: Oh yeah? Real men don't use metaphors. I'll see your salsa and raise you a mambo, you, you... closet tutu wearer. :mad:
There's only movie that makes me cry, and that is the one where Tom Hanks doesn't get the girl in the end. oh wait

Turner and Hooch? Wait...he got Hooch.
Sulphur on 12/7/2010 at 21:21
No no, that can't be right.
After that bit, Hooch was kidnapped by an animal rights activist who looked suspiciously like David Hasselhoff and was secreted away to a little shack in the woods where the two had themselves happy little Hoochy babies in the end. Which ridiculously truncated version did
you have the misfortune of seeing?
