Gothic III will have a new graphics engine, so everything will look different. Including the hero. Now if you add a lot of things to game itself as well, you have an intirely different game(why only add shields, and why shields in specific? There are plenty of other things which could be added as well, like spears, gauntles, dual-wield, dividing armour into different parts and so on).That's what I'm afraid of. |

What's the matter with having armor broken down into parts and having helmets?
It'd add a lot more variety imo.
I'm not talking doing away with the armor like it is now.
But allow people to mix/match different styles of armor.
So this will still allow everyone to have the same whole complete suit of the same armor like now, while letting, if you want, to have a more personalised look to yourself.
Dual weilding and shields would be a plus imo. |

ok, please read this one cause i know most of you are sick of my constant ramblings that make no sense but this one will or at least i hope so...
i think that you should be able to buy 'sets' of armor like you can now but it should be broken down into pieces like helmet, chest, greaves, boots, arms, and overgarment (like a robe or a cloak) and be able to mix and match them for example in gothic 1 the sect camp had skirt looking things and the digger's pants probally gave more protection than them or the novice's robe in gothic 2 same prospect leather armor pants would probally award more defense
imo dual weilding would be a good thing but i wont ask for it because it would probally take quite a long time to incorperate it into the game
but the shields are still a big plus  |

no some of us just would perfer individual pieces of armor over sets so that you could better customize your appearance as well as add some realism to the game |

i think armor system we have now in gothic is good, no its the best i've seen on rpg games.i just wish there would be more clothes and armors to buy if you are on lover lever.The way gothic handles armor is something very unique.It makes you actually feel,that you have archived something when you get new armor.HEll i worked my ass of to get accepted into an order of paladins.So it would have only felt silly if i could have bought armor like that from the merchant...Armor also repricents which faction everyone belongs.But i would like to see more neutral clothes/armors..And how about giving hero some new clothes for a change.

i agree totally with Dez. the armor system right now is perfecto and indeed it would be cool to see more of armors and we probably will see more of them in addon and in G3 |

It wouldn't be properly "Gothic" if there where Shields and divided armor... it's like a mystery... don't ask why... it's just gothic... like that.
It would be nice to have new items... but it would lose all its Gothic quality... it's nice as it is...

I totally disagree…IMO, the addition of shields could only enhance the Gothic experience. The armor system, to me, is fine but the lack of shields makes the game somehow incomplete. If this game was set in the Stone Age it would fine, but it’s not.

I think it's complete as it is... it would be better to have shields... but it's completely "playable" or enjoyable this way... besides, without any shields the character looks MIGHTY... like he's too good to use any of them...

I personally think that in the hands of PB the sheild could be implemented very well.
I agree that it would take some work with balancing and so forth, but Gothic has always been about choice, and learning skills to build your own "Character Class", so just because mages or whatever wouldnt usually use sheilds, doesnt mean you shouldnt be allowed to do it.
I dont always agree with the typical stereotype/Tolkein type characters that everone insists that we HAVE to stick to. If you enjoy playing some kind of mixed up freak then I say have fun
Anything that adds depth to the world of Gothic is a good thing, and I trust PB to advance the game in the best possible way. They have done an amazing job so far...

Not anything (in my opinion) is a good thing... just imagine if you add gunpowder in Gothic...
Generally, sticking to a "kind of world" like Tolkiens or Elder Scrolls, is good... it's like the basics steps of a story, I mean the enviroment.

Let me ask a question...If the world of Gothic does not use gunpowder, just how would they launch projectiles out of those cannons on the galleon and others strewn about the Gothic world?
