Played through a game called Drova which is a game made by fans of the Gothic series and they wear their influences on their sleeves. Lots of NPCs are asshole and you'll be robbed more than once. You feel every little granular bit of progression, every piece of equipment and bit of character progression makes a difference. You need to join a faction to progress the story, which locks out out of the other faction. This is the only way to gain access to higher quality armor as well, apart from the unique sets you can find or craft at the end of quest lines. You really feel the visual progression of your character, too, starting in rags and whacking things with a stick and ending up in obsidian rune armor with a god-slaying sword in hand while you teleport and breathe fire. It's loads of fun, the combat is challenging even when you get loaded up with endgame equipment and spells and talents, and the ambience and music are amazing. Charming visuals, too. Hearty recommend.
