Yeah, if there is multiplayer we can challenge or cooperate with each other. But then if MP feature was added, I don't know if I could stop playing Gothic or not.

mp is over-rated in rpgs. the events that take place in any decent rpg just don't exist in mp. sorry, but i am happy that gothic will be single player and not mp. plot lines need to be controlled if they are going to really work and tell the story that the game developers intend. sure, it is nice to have freedom and lattitude in a game (ie Morrowind)...but gothic is a game that focus' on telling a tale. i think you ought to keep your eyes out for the new galatic starwars game coming out...that sounds like a massive mp game. i think it is an rpg but i am not sure.

Of course it is. Specially when it is a Gothic game.

I usually steer clear of RPGs with MP because the MP is so poorly implemented and the SP can suffer from it. I say SP is definately the way to go with an RPG that wants to tell a quality story.

Yes but multiplayes is better when it comes to FPS.

Well, I don't play FPS games. Therefore, in the immortal words of Rhett Butler: "Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn."
Give me a good SP RPG and I'm happy.

Thanks, but I already have a copy. Of course, I could always sell your copy on eBay for extra cash.

hahahah lmfao ya Val has good ideas and yes SP is enough for me nothing else.
Maybe they will do later some patch or sth what will allowe MP but then again MP muss be Team work like going to Forrest or somewhere in ruins and killing creatures and later come to citys/camps and sell the stuff you got from there how you like my idea ?

I seriously doubt they would be able to implement MP into the game with a patch. The game was designed to be SP. They'd have to change many of the quests, dialog, etc and in the end you'd have a completely different game. Besides, MP doesn't fit the setting of the game. It's a dog eat dog world where you better look out for number one or you won't get anywhere. Besides, having another person in my game screaming l33t speak would completely ruin my imersion factor.
