I think the Orcs got him if I remember that far back, as he's a rebel and factions mean something in this game, even down to the armour I wear. Copper, the other early companion is also six feet under and he wasn't very strong to start with. I can't get at him to heal sometimes in large fights either, and healing the enemy by accident isn't the way to go!! That's for masochists!!įor now until I head for the desert Varant and pick up Diego, I'll rely on my druid spells to call animals to fight for me which is often better anyway as the animals don't seem to get stuck on things and seem to find paths to follow me much easier. I say only an axe because Gorn has to get into close quarters to fight and just seems to endlessly fight rather than do much damage or so it seems. Gorn who was at Gotha as a prisoner until I released him isn't nearly as good or versatile as he only uses an axe where Cyrus uses bow and blade. He has followed me all over Myrtana even after completing his quest and is, or was very useful. RIP Cyrus from Cape Dun! Even healing him when I could get close enough wasn't sufficient in the end. Thankfully, I also have a good bow and did have a very useful companion, but he gave his life for the cause. That didn't take me all night of course, but when I arrived at Gotha I had to finish it and it was hard since I ran out of mana potions and was resorting to eating raw plants and fungi.ewww! I'm primarily a mage so getting in close quarters with skeletons and zombies is a sure way to disaster. The city is behind a force field and the stone is the only way in.currently. There's a very good story behind it, and indeed the entire game, but if you haven't played the game it's a bit pointless explaining it in detail.Īnyway, the main reason I was up all night was to clear the area completely and get one of the sacred artifacts that was being held by the demon, as well as finding the teleport stone to Vengard, the capital city. It's now cursed by a demon summoned by the god Beliar, and is full of undead.the paladins themselves. If you've never played a Gothic game you will be a bit lost in the following descriptions, but this is mainly for fans who will know what I'm talking about.and possibly new fans whose interest may be piqued about the games.Īnyway, I ended up at Gotha, (via several other towns and just exploring this time) which used to be a Paladin stronghold before and during the war with the Orcs.

Then I only shut it down and went to bed because my eyes almost needed matches to stay open and because my arthritic hands were so stiff and sore. I saw the sun rise at 7am this morning after a marathon play session starting at 11pm the evening before. Since I started replaying Gothic 3 I've been up most of the night, every night for the last several days.
