I never finished Gothic 3 because of technical issues. Both times I got quite a long time into the game before it started crashing for some reason, to the point where it was unplayable In my second attempt I was a long, long way into it, really having a blast, and the game just stopped working. If I remember correctly I uninstalled it and reinstalled a couple of times to no avail. If it were eventually remade I might go for it one more time.
I remember getting all nostalgic in Gothic II when I finally made it through the canyon to the "old" area where the first game took place, and the music from the original game started. Brought a tear to me eye, it did.
