I changed the game name to The Chronicles Of Myrtana: Archolos

GOG still has it labeled as 'TBA'.

What? I thought this was just a large mod. It's going to be sold as a retail game?

It's a free total conversion mod - get it on Steam.

Sorry if I didn't make myself clear here. When I wrote that GOG still has it as 'TBA', it's because I have the GOG version of Gothic II and so I expect it to be released there as well.

From both gaming pages we can read: "The Chronicles Of Myrtana: Archolos is a free, total conversion mod for Gothic II: Gold Edition. It features a completely new open world, improved skills systems, gameplay mechanics and complex story."

Sorry for any mistakes

Ahhh nice, out the day prior to my birthday! And this is my idea of a conversion module, one that does the work for you. I might even figure it out! Yes, I know I've said this once or six hundred times in the past, now get off my lawn. -)

Not your mistake at all. I obviously didn't take the time to read the details.

So this is like the Revision mod for Deus Ex. Free but popular enough to get its own store page. I'll check it out for sure. Dec 10 release over here.

Will it be available in English, or do we have to read subtitles?

subtitles. Polish VA only. May not be a problem, I played Velaya with English subtitles and it was fine.

And I'm playing Nehrim with English subtitles as well

Unfortunately, I will only play a game with subtitles if I have absolutely nothing else to play!!

Yeah I prefer if the voice-overs was translated in English as well. I played Nehrim and it was confusing at times even with the subtitles. Still it probably takes to much work.

By that I mean a small team sometimes finds it to be a daunting task. There are a few free communicates that offer voice work though, and that sometimes helps with mods.

Subtitles are fine by me, most of the time I have audio off anyways.

Hopefully the English subtitles are complete at release. They were still working on them this summer, and it sounded like they had a ways to go.

I could never play a game without any audio at all. As that is part of what makes a great game. It sets the mood and allows immersion. Especially boss fights and cut-scenes.

Hell yes! I am waiting for this for years.
So glad that Gothic gets a mod (total conversion) like how Skyrim got Enderal or how Oblivion got Nehrim.
Now, let's hope is good

If it doesnt have english voice overs, it doesnt exist! … funny

Gothic 2 might be my most replayed game, if I actually counted that. But Im not much in mods and fan content. Might give it try if feedback is positive though.

Well, on the Steam page, it says: CONTENT FOR THIS GAME: Polish Language Pack.."Adds Polish voice acting to …etc.etc…. So that would lead me to believe that the default voice-acting is perhaps English??

If your releasing it commercially on Steam for an international audience to play it damn well should have English voice-overs. I'll just turn off the polish voice-overs if possible.
