It was always a mediocre game company that only makes Gothic-like games. Their initial success was pure luck. So far Elex seems like a step in right direction, maybe by the time they make not-Gothic 20 they'll finally refine their formula and create the ultimate masterpiece.

ELEX is actually almost on par with Risen 1 on top of not turning into a linear dungeon crawl halfway through, aside from some retardation leftover from Risen 2/3 including the gayass lockpicking minigame, shit UI, visible enemy weapons not being lootable on bodies, and not being able to loot KO'd NPCs. The C&C and the 'PB curve' is still very much real here, so you start off like a little bitch and end up a godlike faceroller. On Ultra you'll spend most of your initial levels running away from mobs. The jetpack is not a gimmick and actually useful for both exploration and combat. Enemies have ranged attacks so you can't cheese fights with the jetpack. The publisher excuse might have been true given that there's no retardation like QTEs and invisible walls blocking off sections of the map. It's a gud 7/10 kind of game.

I can even give you Elex since that game is made with a tiny budget, lots of reused assets/animations and is clunky and outdated as shit, but so are a shitton of modern Japanese games and Elex doesn't have shitty business practises, both games are even DRM free and the first even has mod support from the get go and level making tools
If you mean big budgeted AAA games, sure
But give me something akin to Total War or Rimworld made by the Nips, you simply cannot while many of the funds are being funneled towards shallow JRPGs or Beat em Ups
Just like something akin to Firepro Wrestling would be nearly impossible to be made by a western dev
Both markets have their pros and cons and if you can't find and enjoy games from both regions you should kill yourself

Divinity OS is fun, though the writing is very hit and miss. At times it veers into 'lolsorandom' reddit tier writing, but more often that not it's serviceable prose that is succinct and not
WORDS WORDS WORDS LOOK HOW SMART OUR WRITERS ARE
Too many RPGs from that last few years go that wall of text route and with the exception of The Age of Decadence aren't engaging. I've tried getting myself through Obsidian's 'Tranny' and 'Pillars of Eternity' both they're written in a way that is exhausting. Kind of like a high school kid that is trying too hard to look sophisticated by throwing their dictionary at an assignment.

The combat is fucking clunky, there's no direction in the story, when I was fucking looting the converter I got forced into a cutscene where I walked up behind albs in close fucking range and immediately got shot at and obviously died because I was forced to not only get within aggro but also be put out in the fucking open with no cover when they have FUCKING PLASMA RIFLES
the story is forgettable, the melee is arbitrary, ranged aiming is off fucking center, movement is so fucking garbage I wanted to stable my fucking nuts together, and dialogue options which you are immediately introduced to are locked behind skillups that you HAVE TO FUCKING PAY FOR IN FUCKING ELEXIT WHILE ALSO HAVING THE ATTRIBUTE UPS PREREQUISITES.
There's no possible way to tell when one of these fucking conversation skill checks will occur, and when they do happen,

Git gud you scrub, and i am telling you completely seriously, you obviously played things like skyrim too much, where everything controls through first person, and doesn't have pauses/animation fluidity of real third person movement mechanics which you need to get used to.
Now you also complaining about attribute prerequisites, they are there because its a fucking roleplaying game.
>savescumming
Just because you die so much from every monster because you don't get enough xp from quests doesn't mean the game is bad designed. I bet you're shit at Dark Souls too. You would be even shit at gothic 2 as well.
Only scrubs and niggers who can't into handling and playing for days are the ones hating elex for small things like this. The game dev's philosophy is to focus on setting, story and game's world, while delivering classic rpg experience within simples third person combat mechanics.
That said, we got a crowd that only plays dragon age, witcher and skyrim for their action rpg nonsense, they cannot get into gothic since gothic has no hand holding and its cruel to stupid player at its core.

Yes, that's how other PB games like Gothic work. You start off as a little bitch and try to make your way up in any way possible. You're free to go wherever, but strong monsters are meant to naturally discourage you from going gung ho all over the place. The game uses flat DR instead of level scaling or percentage-based reduction, meaning using a weapon with 40 DMG against an enemy with 30 DR and 100 HP will deal 10 DMG per strike and take 10 hits to kill, whereas a weapon with 45 DMG will deal 15 DMG per strike and take it 7 hits to kill. This is intentional so even the slightest upgrade to your gear will feel like a massive step forward. There is no loot hamster wheel to speak of here. Remember that moment whenever you get new armor in the Gothic games and how many more possibilities are opened to you? That is the kind of feeling ELEX is striving for.
These games are still action RPGs, so you can still get by through skill alone and some decent gear. You don't need to have ridiculously OP gear to make any progress. That's only if you really suck at the combat, so for good measure I've linked a video explaining some of the combat system in ELEX given that the game itself does a rather poor job at it.

I just discovered the fucking Plasma Rifle and its aoe shot. Previously I was on the fence between Clerics and Berserkers but the power of plasma rifles has convinced me. These fuckers stunlock ogres and knocks anything lesser to the ground. The rof is decent and since it's aoe CC it makes taking care of multiple mobs a fucking piece of cake.
Previously I was struggling against a single ripper. Now I just won a fight against 3 and I got hit once out of clumsiness.
And all this with a shitty 40 damage rifle. Ammo is kind of expensive though, holy fuck. How do I make elex? Haggler is only 5%, I tested it and quickly reloaded, that perk is trash. I heard pickpocketing is decent but haven't invested points yet.

You have trouble with entering or finding quests for joining?
If the former then you have to find Rainer somewhere in Edan. He's a traveling recruiter and he'll allow you to enter Hort but he's bugged a little. Ask him about his god. He'll ask you a few questions. If you don't lie he'll offer you to take you Hort. DON'T do that, it's bugged. He'll take you there but guard won't let you enter. What you have to do is lie to Rainer a least once and he'll knock you out and kidnap you.You'll wake up inside Hort with permission to walk in and out freely.
Other possible option but I didn't try it is to go walk up to a dude in front of a Hort, he promises he'll give you entry permit if you help him retrive his goods but I'm not sure if it works because I didn't try it.

You can also try to bribe him, he'll decline but instead says he wants a favor in return later on and lets you in. You can just deny the favor later on.
Also a bit further from the gate there's a trader, if you get 3 supply crates (guarded by 3-4 rippers) you can get a traders permit that lets you in as well. You can also choose some elix or a laser rifle as rewards instead.

It's the recruiter I was looking for, I've been all over the map but haven't found any clerics except at the hort or domed city. Plenty of dead ones though.
I did get the trader pass the first time I was there, but decided not to use it since it seemed like entering the "correct" way would make joining easier later.

Most of the TBT games should have used real time with pause like 7.62 Hard Life or Silent Storm

I agree, but the depletion of elex as a whole is interesting concepts, Albs are self destructive, as soon as elex runs out they will canibalize and collapse that is pretty much obvious
Berserkers without elex would be reset to medieval level of tech without the magic, whole they might survive they would still set humanity back by at least 1000 years
Outlaws are just bunch of scavengers and lolbergs in my opinion, they are unable to build a stable and civilized society, with or without elex, not to mention that they cant even grow crops in their desert, they have to scavenge for resources the whole time while others fractions are sustainable
The best choice for humanity in my opinion are the Clerics, even when the elex runs out they still have advanced tech non-dependent on elex, they are self sustainable and able to manufacture everything they need to sustain a advanced society

I hate to admit it, but i think developers themselves favor clerics. They are faction that looks too good in this setting. Even player who doesn't get into learning about each faction, would probably want to join clerics just because they have top gear. They are very imbalanced compared to others.

I joined the clerics because they have to coolest armor and somehow remind me of the Brotherhood of Nod. When you join you get to use Suggestion and Psy powers. Suggestion is useless shit.SHIT! But the Psy powers are strong and i mostly used those against harder enemies liked the boss
They being hardcore religious is annoying at times and Suggesting people because they don't share your opinion is commie tier.
The Outlaws just fuck around in a dessert and reminded me of raiders from Fallout dont forget to buy fallout 4 for evrry platform atleast twice
Will probably join them if i do a second playthrough. Oh and Stims are useless shit.
Berserkers are varg the faction which i wouldnt have a problem with but their armors look like ass and their rules are ass. NO TECHNOLOGY OR TALKING SHIT ABOUT THIS AND THAT OR WE WILL BAN YOU TO FUCK YOUR SHIT LAND.

Thats a shame because in the beginning in the first settlement and outlaws settlement there is shit tons options to use suggestion but i think its virtually impossible to use it there considering that you have to be a part of clerics to learn it and when you are a part of fractions all quests from other fractions lock out (i dont know i still didnt joined any fraction but im lvl 10 and i intend to join clerics soon)
Also Clerics give me NOD vibes too, it must be the color scheme and armors

The fact that they cry about their linear moeblobbish final fantasy clones made of sugar, samefaced, plate eyed dolls and colored hairs in motherfucking western rpg thread is astonishing. Reminder that anime is not an artform. Even flawed western games are superior to anything japanese, since japan has no taste, it makes same looking and same playing shit since this century began. No wonder they now all play shitty mobile games, because jrpg grindan is no different from a mobile clicker. Japs put no effort into their games, they just get the crowd of moe loving faggots addicted to shit gameplay and shit visuals. Of course good japanese games exist, but they come out once in the 5-7 years and this isn't shit weebs usually consume, they also don't contain anime and directors of those projects hire actual fucking artists (nioh, dragon's dogma, dark souls). Japanese gamedev could be better, but moeloving consumers with waifu panties on their heads will not let the garbage go away. And you stuck with SJW culture not only as a destructive element, but also as an apologism for weebshit lovers on /v/.

im not op, but it seems clear you understand clunky differently. I also dont find gothic clunky, then again, what i do find clunky. If anything that differs even a little bit from AAA titles you find clunky, then well, gothic is extremely clunky, dont even touch older titles from early 90s
For me there are games that are clunky initially, they just take longer time to get used to, like ultima underworld. Games forever clunky are very rare, old adventure games maybe, where you have to input own words, like old Larry games.

This game was really hard to like at start, mostly due to the entire console aspect. Target locking, for example, was present in Gothic too, but it didn't fuck with the camera nearly as much and didn't automatically lock you on enemy the moment you got within ten metres of him. This shit Elex pulls makes crowd control very fucking difficult and you're bound to get raped in the back when fighting multiple enemies. You can unlock, but then your swings are bound to go into retarded directions half the time, so you gotta unlock, reposition so that you have enemies in front, lock again and finally take a swing before doing the whole thing again when an enemy gets behind you. Movement in general seems shit tier.
On the other hand, the game kinda grows on you if you force yourself to play for a bit, and has lots of actually good shit there. It's like a worse version of Gothic 3, which is pretty weak, but still miles above the likes of Risen 2 and 3.

Difficulty in options. Strange place to put it, I would have put it in gameplay instead but whatever. Seriously turn off combat lock though. It just makes you take hits and move more slowly, and you can't turn directly left or right because it circles your movement around the center, the enemy.

Does the clunkiness of Gothic serve any purpose to the game itself? Like tank controls in survival horror, or an actual tank game, exist to either heighten the atmosphere of fear (a lack of power is good for a horror game), or immerse the player (in controlling a tank). Personally, I don't see how this design philosophy can be used to explain Gothic's clunk. Gothic is just the result of competence and incompetence in different areas, thus it has a smaller (though dedicated, since they took the time to earn the game's high points, by enduring its lows) fanbase than it would have if it were more accessible.

Its interesting how you both dropped it, since i am also on a verge of dropping it, so i wanted to add my two cents, DivOS2 has some good parts and some bad parts.
Arx city part after nameless island is especially bad as both locations and encounters there. Too damn frustrating, and in some cases just unfair, not difficult, its much easier to cheese some locations than complete the combat genuine, and eventually you get used to cheese every fight. Some of locations designed extremely retarded during combat, and loading after every single death is chore of a wait. Waiting for enemies to finish their shit can be boring too, and there's no option to speed up animations at all. Sometimes AI can stuck thinking on each turn, making fights even longer, like it even needs that chess level of ai. This game sucked up too much time from me, but most of that time was spend on boring times of slow travel to closest waypoint, dealing with teleportation and jumping through pits with your companions and waiting for your turn in battle. Boss battles end in few turns because you would want them strategically end in few turns without getting your shit wrecked.
That and half of the companions being extremely obnoxious, especially women. Black female lesbian paladins (which by the way appear only at Arx, like desire to push for diversity began during development of that city) don't give it pros too. Your "non-linear" playthrough is not really that non-linear, but it gives you an illusion of uniqueness by locking up some content behind race-based, undead based and companion based checks. You are going to fight all same bosses anyway and who game doesn't allow you to kill or absorb at certain point of the story - you won't be able to kill or absorb. Pretty much most of freedom is an illusion, and even if you kill most things ruthlessly you can be deemed as a hero. Sometimes game doesn't even check who the fuck your character, i had some demon referring to me as Fane and Lohse, when i was original character and both of those guys were dead.
That's of course mostly negative criticism, but i don't think i need to list positive one for anybody who played. The game in its basic gameplay is pretty neat, its just realization is far from perfect to enjoy without getting frustrated at basic faults of level design or writing direction. Also some skills and classes can be total trash and disappoint at their ability selection, like hydrosophist and necromancy. They could get much better expansion at later levels. I feel this is not the end for the game though and there will be expansion/dlcs in the near future.

The reason why I hold Gothic 3 in higher regards is because I find Elex world and lore boring and all over the place, the characters are not as memorable as Gothic 1 and 2 (Gothic 3 did have a solid cast over from Gothic 1-2 though), nearly and gameplay-wise also. Factions are one short hair away from okay. Berserkers have their own problems and bland as fuck, Clerics are cable worshipping loons who somehow think settling in the volcano is a good idea and then bitch about crappy food, Outlaws would be really nice if they can lay off the chems.
The good thing that ELEX did for me is that it makes me want to reinstall Gothic 2/3 and Risen and play the ever living shit out of them again.

When was the last time you played G3? It has a solid cast of memorable characters only on paper, in reality there's minimal interaction with them. And in reality they're only memorable because of G1 and G2, nothing memorable really happens with them in G3.
The combat in G3 also has to be the worst of all the games, except for maybe Risen 2. The CP makes it a bit better but adds other issues.
I mean I urge you to replay them, but unless you've played G3 recently I think you're just remembering it a bit more fondly than it deserves.

Polish version isn't very good. The dub is clearly very low budget. You can constantly hear that actors were given no information about context of their dialogue lines, voices are very neutral even in emotional moments, there are sometimes tone shifts where one sentence the guy sounds angry and the next he sounds like a retard because his tone doesn't fit the context.
