This is just a brief turn-around on the things that have been discussed on the three Gothic forums. If you're looking for a thorough guide, or even a walkthrough, you can find one here. For an official Gothic FAQ, look here.
Also, search function usually proves to be very useful.
General issues
How do I pick up/use/activate object&items?
You need to stay still for that purpose, hold onto the action button to lock the item, and press forward. You can also use strafe-left/right to change the focused object while holding onto the action button (useful when multiple objects/dead animals are around).
I transformed into an animal, but cannot transform back!
Just hit enter.
Can I hold a torch & weapon at the same time?
No you can not. The character always drops the torch when engaging combat mode.
How do I "unequip" torches?
You have to have at least two torches in your inventory at all times, if you wish to use them. The other one you use (literally) to "unequip" the first one. Strange, but that's the way it is...
Can I mine ore?

Pickpocketing
If you want to pickpocket, you'll first have to train that skill and sneaking as well (20 learning points at whole). Sneak to your target (which must be a no-name NPC) so that he doesn't notice you, and "use" him and then take whatever you please from his inventory. You might want to do it slowly...
If you have any doubts on training this skill, consult this page.
Accidental(?) killings of NPC-s
This is a known issue in Gothic, and it may happen to you as well; especially when figthing multiple enemies.

Safe storage for your own valuables?
Basically, your inventory has no limits, not through size nor weight, so you don't actually need to store items. But if you do wish to do so, you might want to read this...
http://www.rpgdot.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=22150
Do the arena fights actually take place? What about betting?
You have surely noticed that you can talk about betting on fights with Scatty, but you were never able to actually place bet. That's because the fights don't take place (yup...), even though you might have noticed diggers gather there in the evenings. The fights weren't present in the German version of the game either.

http://www.rpgdot.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=12566
Gold coins
Gold coins, or old coins, as they are called in the game, are of no use to you. The currency within the barrier is ore, and the coins have no value whatsoever. If you are persistant you can acquire more than 5 thousand gold coins during the game... There is no character importing in Gothic II, if that ever crossed your mind.

Horatio and his quest
You have to talk to Jeremiah. He's at the New Camp pub. After that, return to Horatio.
Why doesn't Ian give me the list?
You never asked Diego why Ian should give you the list. Once that is done, you shouldn't have any more problems.
Why does Gomez kill me?

Can you actually become a baal, or a guru, for that mater?
No, you can not. You have acces to magic as a templar, though.

Can't climb a ladder in the old mountain fort?
Not many people encountered this problem, but this ladder has a similar bug to one of the two ladders in one of the shafts in the old mine. The thing is, that, once that you are at the very top of it, you'll have to jump. Try this several times to recognize the very moment. You're not likely to succeed at first, but don't give up.
