iNero Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 (edited) Has been announced at the end of february, but today the first teaser trailer was published. Info from German Magazine PC Games which got an exclusive look at the game in february: Combat system: -There will be a prologue during which you can experiment with higher abilities. After that, you continue on level 1.-Blocks work against monsters.-At the beginning, you already have an evasion somersault and short range teleport to escape combat.-Big armours and swords as well as firefalls and lightning strikes.-Voodoo magic will probably also be available.-Unconscious enemies can be plundered.-The will be party members again who will help you in combat-Combat system with four different actions and rudimentary combos. Gameplay/Story: -DLCs will offer more content.-Roasting meat etc. will happen in a separate window again.-Gameworld: Primarily middle european but also mediterranean and tropical regions.-The world is modelled by hand.-Swimming will be possible.-Seperate loading zones like in R2. No free roaming with out loading screens.-Several factions (probably three) from which to choose.-Already known are the “guardians” which resemble the paladins from older games.-New enemy: The shadows (undead which rise from skull caves).-At the beginning of the game, the main character’s soul will be devoured by a might shadow lord.-After that, he will have a soul value which can develop either towards human or demonic.-New hero, the character from previous Risen games will still play a starring role however.-Food will still be swapped to “provisions”. Technical: -Once again forced Steam and no modding tools.-Game will be developed for PS3, Xbox 360 and PC - no mention of next gen consoles.-Engine will be the same as in Risen 2 with some polished graphics - but the problems of the old engine (like the stiff character animations during dialogues) are still present and do not seem up to date compared to competing titles like Dragon Age: Inquisition or The Witcher 3. First Screens are here: http://www.xboxdynasty.de/Risen-3--Titan-Lords/screenshot,Xbox-360,76887.html Release is set for Agusut 2014.

NCONiall Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 (edited) I'm a massive fan of the Gothic series which was also developed by Piranha Bytes, so I have known about this game for quite some time. I have played the first Risen game and I thought it was a pretty decent game, but the final boss battle was not pulled off very well at all. I have not played Risen 2, so I can not comment on it. I've seen game-play videos and it seems very different, but I'll say no more. If I had the rig, I would probably pick this game up (and Risen 2) simply because it was developed by PB and of course for completion; the end of Risen 1 just screamed sequel at me.

Haha365 Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Moderator Note: I'm going to bump this one, rather than start a new thread, to talk about the enhanced version. If you would rather I start a new one, please let me know. OT: Now that this has been announced for PS4, those that have played the previous versions, is it worth picking up? I don't expect this to be on the same scale as The Elder Scrolls or Witcher series, but it looks interesting at least. I haven't played any of the Risen or Gothic games, previously.

Haha365 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Well, lol, I guess this game really wasn't that good. Sorry for the double post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osho Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Related to Piranha Bytes and so bumping for a very nice announcement planned tomorrow. Piranha Bytes's FB Page shows a cryptic message on the image that means "3 days left"!! Either they are teasing a new game or something else. So, if you are a fan of their games, mainly Gothic, then its an interesting news and really look forward to what's coming out of this. Personally, I want to see a good remaster of Gothic 3. Lets see!

NCONiall Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 (edited) The image made me think of the exchange place in Gothic I but now it seems to be a new game called ELEX developed by PB and to be published by Nordic Games. I don't think we'll ever get Gothic remake. Still, this game has me hyped since it's a PB game. One hour left now, what you do think we'll get? Likely a teaser trailer I imagine.
