Gothic 1 Classic (PS5)

The teacher-based skill system is such a refreshing change from the usual level-up menus. I’ve already sunk 20 hours just exploring the colony and trying different weapon types.

Put in about 15 hours so far and the sheer variety of weapons and spells keeps me experimenting. The combat can feel a bit clunky at first, but once you get used to it, the world really opens up. Definitely worth it for anyone who loves classic RPGs.

The character progression tied to teachers is such a cool twist—I actually plan my whole build around which master to track down next. With over 50 hours in and barely scratching the surface of spells and weapons, this is exactly the old-school grind I wanted.
