For those of you that don't know steam has the entire Gothic series available for 18.50 USD, and as an avid RPG fan I had to dive in.
It has Gothic 1, Gothic 2 gold edition, Gothic 3, GOthic 3 standalone expansion, and Gothic 4.
Unfortunately Gothic 1 and 2 are both plagued with startup errors for anyone with a decent computer. I can't seem to get either to work properly.
Gothic 3 I haven't dived into much but with all these patches and mods they must be doing something right. Gothic 4 is a bit shallow, but it really is beautiful. Plus the combat is fairly decent, and while linear I can't seem to care.
Anyways the deal is decent, but beware the problems with 1 and 2 before buying. Also if anyone does happen to know a fix i'd be thankful. Personally I think 4 alone is worth the 20 USD, and the other 4 games just push the deal over the top.
