A summary/review of the Gothic II demo..
So, I've been through the demo a couple of times, and I thought it might be a good idea to gather all the information on it in a single thread(so just add if I forget something).
Now, first out is "skills" :
The skills you can learn/train in the demo:
Strength: Maximum 50 + 9 from Innos + 5 from ring = 64
Dexterity: Maximum 10(unable to learn)
Sword: 10%(unable to learn)
Twohander: 10%(unable to learn)
Bow: 100%(impossible to reach due to the fact that after you've reached 30%, you will train BOTH Bow and Crossbow at the same time using twice as many skillpoints every time you train)
Crossbow: Read above(there are no crossbows in the demo)
Sneaking: You can learn it from the hunter in Khorinis.
Lockpicking: You can learn it from Grittas' uncle if you pay the 100 gold for her(he's one of the masters who give you quests, and his quest is to get a blessing).
Alchemy: Creating a few potions using herbs(You can learn alchemy from the the alchemist living next to Harad the smith by becoming his apprentice; to do that you have to gather some specific herbs for him).
Size of the demo: At first, the demo seems huge, but after a couple of times through it, you realize it's not that big really.
The main areas are:
-Alliks' farm
-The tavern
-2/3 of Khorinis
-Valley near Khorinis containing a cave, a couple of Shadowbeasts, some wargs, and a lot of field robbers
-The big forest
The main fighting place is undoubtably the big forest, but you have to stay clear of the core; around it you'll find field robbers, wolves, scavengers and bloodflies basically, but inside the core, you have to fight skeletons, wargs, shadowbeasts and an Orc Elite.
Caves: I found quite a few caves, but the rarest ones are the cave with the orc warrior(I was able to defeat him by backing him up against the wall), the cave with the switch and the closed door, and the cave with the zombies. The orc cave is located on the path between Alliks' farm and Khorinis, the cave with the switch is at the very edge of the map near a cliff in the forest, and the cave with the zombies is behind the graveyard near the tavern.
Creatures: I've encountered the following creatures: Bloodflies(normal/young), wolves(normal/young), molerats, scavengers, goblins(black/normal), skeletons(goblin/low/normal), orcs(scout/warrior/elite), shadowbeasts, wargs, field robbers(normal/young) and the blue light which I can never remember the name of.
Creatures I were able to defeat, and how: All except wargs, the orc elite, and low/normal skeletons. The hardest fight was the orc warrior, but after a few reloads I managed to get him up against the wall so that he didn't manage to get the two blows needed to finish me off. Other hard fights were against 3 goblinskeletons, but they can be defeated in the normal way, and the zombies(just back'em up against the wall like the orc warrior). I also managed to defeat a warg, but that was buy standing where he couldn't get me, and spending about 30 arrows or so(150 experience for these creatures isn't nearly enough - reminds me of the bloodhounds in Gothic 1 which gave you 220xp; shouldn't given 300 or so.. ).
Items:
Swords: The best one handed sword I've found is in one of the towers near the non-demogroun exit of Khorinis(in the other tower there is an excellent two-hander with 55 damage). The two-hander in the other tower is the best sword I've encountered, but I've heard rumors about better swords.
Bows: What good are they anyway? You can't use better bows than the one you find near Xardas' tower, but here goes: The best I've found is a "Jagd"bow with 30 damage(needs 30 dex, which you can't get unless you cheat).
Rings: The rings I use in all my games are the +5str ring, and the +5armor ring(both can be found on the hill above the orc warrior cave). I've also found a +5magic resistance ring, but it won't do you any good(no spellcasting enemies).
Armor: There are 3 armors in the demo; the first I was able to get was the "farmers clothing", the next was the "leather armor" from Bosper, and the 3rd was a leather armor from the guy owning the tavern. The best is, of course, one of the leather armors.
Quests:
-Become a citizen(includes 4 sub-quests)
-Help Allik against the mercenaries of Onar
-Help a "Randuck" or something to enter a drinkingcontest.
-Enter Khorinis for the first time
-Get the two brothers at Alliks' farm to attack each other
Ways to exit the demoground:
-Jump up to the top of the cliff near Xardas, turn left, and slide down between two rocks.
-Stand next to the lightpost near Harads' smithy, and press actionbutton.
-Become a citizen, talk to the guards guarding the gate to the upper section of the city, and then you can just walk through(only into the upper section of the city, but still - a lot of things to get here from the richmans' houses).
I can't think of any more information worth adding, but if you do, just reply to add it to this thread. Also, please don't add "I defeated the orc elite on two shots with a bow" because there is simply no way I'll believe you; I've had nearly 50% in the use of bow, and the arrows barely scratch him - even though he doesn't have much armor protection, he's got too much HP to be killed by bows with 30dmg no matter how much % you have in the use of bow.[/u]
Thank you Srikandi and TheCleric for additions.
