Risen IS limited and restrictive , the whole "trainers" thing exist to restrict you to name just one .
Also what i really HATE in games is when they force you into main quests , at least in TES you can safely say "Frack the world and it's problems i'm gonna be an inglorious thief"
Edit: It isn't fair comparing a 2009 game with a 2002 one
Fair?
This isn't about justice - this is about opinions. In my opinion Gothic 1 is better than all TES games as well, including the latest one.
