I don't want to blow the game, but I don't have the amount of hours/days to get up to snuff. There is a quickstart file I came across that looks like it accomplishes a boatload of things and puts you at the end of chapter 1. Has anyone used it? I think I got it from this site. Should I use it or is it really a spoiler?
Also, how many chapter's are in this game?

Thanks for the help,
Tarkus

The purpose of the quickstart file is for people that have played the game before and want to try the game again in a different camp. The file starts the game at the point where the decision of which camp to join is to be made.
If you are implying that you have not played the game before; then it would not be in your best interest to use this file. The part that this file bypasses is the orientation part, where you get familiar with the game, controls (which take some time to get used to), Gothic layout, etc. I think if you bypass the first part of the game you will quickly be in over your head and lose interest in the game. There are many things to do in the first part of the game, especially sharing some rice schnapps with Mud.
As far as chapter go; there are six.

Donīt use the quickstart file, unfortunately itīs buggy. JemyM tries to fix the problem.

Gothic is approx. 50 hours long, +/- 20 hours depending on playing style.
Chapter 1 is _by far_ the longest part.

Hey JemyM...

Using your file, I've tried to join the new camp; but Lares keeps attacking me on site. Is this a bug, or must I do something else before giving him the list?

Hmm, I don't know if this just happened to me but when I used the quickstart file I can't get the orc cementary quest. The whole cementary is empty and the door I'm supposed to teleport past is open already... Anyone else played this far on the quickstart file ?
