| Gothic: New Demo Released |
|
The Gothic 3 site has news that Pirinha Bytes has released a <a href="http://www.piranha-bytes.com/gothic1/index.php?lang=eng" target="_blank">demo</a> of the original Gothic to accompany the recent re-release of the title. The wording seems to imply this isn't the same as the original 2001 demo but we'll have to check that to be sure:<blockquote><em>In the course of re-releasing the original Gothic 1 internationally, we have created an English demo version for you. If you haven't played the first adventure of the nameless hero yet or just want to experience it in English, follow this link: <a href="http://www.piranha-bytes.com/gothic1/index.php?lang=eng" target="_blank">Gothic 1 Demo</a>. |

Not bad, for a game that has been released 5 years ago. I wonder who had the idea to do this. Was it Jowood or PB ? I don't think PB has time for such things because they are busy making G3. Perhaps that's part of the G3 marketing promotion tactics. |

Methinks it's PB's idea (the demo is on their server).
But this isn't a new demo, AFAIK. I played the same demo some years ago, with two differences: it was in German, and Marvin-Mode was deactivated ... |

Nothing new? Somehow I was hoping for a re-worked control scheme, for the re-release. |

I've got Gothic 1 configured just like Gothic 2 *except* CTRL+W is action - for picking things up, NPCs, ladders etc.
If you pick "alternate controls" that's what you'll get.
I love Gothic 2 controls - they are very accessible. Too bad you can't get G1 configured exactly like it - but its not a huge deal. Graphics are suprisingly good for such an ancient game.
