What people are saying
Split verdict: praised for old-school soul, panned for bugs and unfinished state.
Many players praise the game for capturing the old-school RPG feel of Gothic, with rewarding exploration and no hand-holding. One player says it 'scratches that old itch' (R1), while another calls it 'Best Gothic-like since Risen' (R8). [1][8]
However, a significant number of players criticize the game for being buggy and unfinished. One player warns 'DON'T BUY THIS GAME! At least not yet' (R28), and another says 'it is not in release state' (R36). [28][36]

60 of 303 · most liked first13-year-old me had endless time to beat Gothic II every possible way. 34-year-old me is lucky to squeeze in 1–2 hours of gaming per day on a good week. But I finally found a game that scratches that old itch… even if the journey now comes in tiny, hard-won slices of free time. Cheers Older-GAMERS. Lets dig in ********************************** 5 Hours In - Difficulty: Grayshaft Called in sick today and finally sat down with the game. Here’s the short version, straight from my own eyes. The…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really wanted to like this game. It’s the kind of game where you can feel the passion the devs had for the project, but unfortunately I can’t recommend it. So for you who’s unsure whether you should buy it or not, here’s my quick take: Don’t buy this game yet. Save your money and come back in six months or a year. The game was released, but it’s not complete. In its current state it will give you a few hours of fun and some open-world challenge (a challenge that sometimes borders on unfair…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →👍 Recommended (40+ hours played) The Best Aspects Old-school RPG vibes — no quest markers, no hand-holding, just raw exploration. Tristan starts weak but grows into whatever you want: crafting, combat, thievery, alchemy. Factions add replay value: Order & Free Hunters, plus Smugglers, Graverobbers, and Bounty Hunters. Combat is stamina-based and tactical — dodges, parries, and timing matter. Huge world with tons of quests, treasures, and freedom to get lost. Fair price at $30 for the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →After over 60 hours in the game I feel like sharing my thoughts. For context I am 55 and have evolved through all stages of RPG gaming - from Ultima, Elder Scrolls, Gothic and Risen. While I enjoy the modern RPGs, I find that being given a full map, minimap, direction arrows, quest markers, fast travel between any explored areas, etc completely destroys any sort of exploration. Players are rewarded for reaching the quest point as quickly as possible, completing the quest and more often then…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I am not writing reviews very often, mostly I am just supporting games by paying for them. This time I have to make an exception because I have such mixed emotions. Of Ash and Steel provides that kind of exprience I had a long time ago playing Gothic. Tough begining, skipping areas to get back later, happy about any loot found, there is never enough money, etc. In that sense, I really like this game even if there is ton of small bugs (environmental, npc movement, character movement, graphic,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I am amazed how they were able to create such a great game with a true hardcore Gothic soul! The resemblance is uncanny! I mean you will feel Gothic-soul in everything! Awkward movement, horrible jumping and climbing, poor animations, clumsy combat and terrible terrain, lots of bugs and broken quests. It's like I went back in time really! But we love Gothic for other things: story, exploration, multiple choices. If you're a Gothic fan it's a buy. If not - pass. You will feel physical pain…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →So tried the demo and felt it was OK so got the full game on release. Now at 11 hours in, heres my viewpoint: TL:DR 7/10 - good bones but needs some surgery The game is great in some aspects, but severely lacking in others. Pros: - Lots to explore, like LOTS to explore - So many quests, they are everywhere - World feels dangerous, no hand holding here - Old school feel in many regards (this is personal preference but for me its a pro) - Graphics are ok, not amazing but they get by - Voice…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →After 86 hours and 100% completion, I really wanted to recommend this game… but I just can’t in its current state. What makes this frustrating is that there is something genuinely special buried in here. You can see the vision. When the combat flows, when a quest gives you just enough information to work things out naturally, when the atmosphere, music and world all click together, the game becomes genuinely immersive in a way very few modern RPGs manage. There were moments where it felt…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Disclaimer: Despite all the flaws I've listed below I still enjoy the game. I will keep playing it and complete it. But here's a few things that you should know before you decide to spend money on it: I wish I could recommend this game, I really do. But I can't. I love the concept, the world, the old school feel without quest markers flooding the map. But the current state of the game makes it disgustingly unplayable. And I'm not talking only about game breaking bugs and glitches where…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Enjoyed the prologue and took a break after a few hours. Went to try to load my manual save and crashed. Tried the last 3 auto saves. 2 crashed and 1 loaded me back to the prologue area with no inventory and no npc's. DON"T BUY THIS GAME! At least not yet. Wait till the game breaking bugs are fixed. Will adjust my review once the game is playable.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is blatantly unfinished. Not in the normal eurojank way, but quests are broken, items vanish from the world, quest progression and dialogue is incomprehensible, and the devs go out of their way to be hostile towards the players. Crossbows don't even work. As in you literally can not fire them once equipped. There are a lot of great ideas and the bones of an amazing RPG under it all, but as it stands the game is fundamentally broken, poorly balanced, and wastes the player's time…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →There's a lot "it's Gothic!" rhetoric going on but it is only attempting to be a gothic-like, tho there are questionable game mechanics not just bugs and performance issues, besides some hideous character designs. I did play almost all Gothic/Risen games before (several times, excluding arcania *eurgh* and forsaken gods) and besides the open world feel and janky movement (even worse here) it is a vastly different experience for me, even tho I'm just a couple hours in. - My biggest personal…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm so torn! I'm four hours in and if the current narrative and direction of the game is anything to go by, continuing the game will be an absolute pleasure. The characters are so grounded and the voice acting is a pleasure to listen to, I find myself actually listening to them as a posed to skipping dialogue. The combat too is very incrementally slow in terms of progression, but that's a plus in my eyes. However, the bugs in this game seriously diminish it. Crashing, duplication bugs, quest…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I like a game that doesn't treat you like an idiot and hold your hand the entire way through it. The concept is great but the execution is terrible. No floating quest markers, no interactive maps that act like a minigame in itself and no reducing everything down to a checklist. All a great start! However this isn't the real world where you can just ask for directions from any rando or read the signs or use a paper map. Instead, I guess they expect us to memorize this entire city's layout, even…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →EDIT: I completed the game. Still do not recommend it because of the atrocious quests. - Combat is fine. Better than what we come to expect from games like these. - Every time you are out in the world exploring and fighting, the game shines. It's actually engaging and fun. Exactly what I was missing and so hard to come by in modern RPGs. - Most of the systems work as intended, crafting and survival is pretty decent. Nothing special, but works ok with the game. - Quests, for the most part, are…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you're a Gothic veteran or are willing to put in the work, this is the place for you. Otherwise, I hear the sect loonies are taking in anyone. I waited for patch 1.0.6 to review because I couldn't either give it a thumbs up or down. I played for 200h before 1.0.6 and I felt I got far more than my money's worth, but on the other hand there was also a lot of frustration and digging into discord for workarounds to the game's many bugs and issues. As of now, I can say that most major bugs are…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →There is a solid foundation for a game here, but OMFG, some aspects of the game... jeez! I understand you want to create the illusion that this is one of those old-school games that does without a map, compass, quest markers, and fewer explanations in quest dialogue. But for the sweet love of LIFE, the areas are so huge, empty, and just filler that actually trying to find a specific location is too damn slow. There are so many filler NPCs in crowded areas. The city just feels like it has been…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I can't recommend this yet. After 100+ hours, a bug has completely blocked my progress on the main quest. It’s buggy, unbalanced, and clearly unfinished. Wait for a sale next summer don't torture yourself like I did.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is very Gothic-like. Personaly, I like the game as it is with all downsides it has. But no, cant recomend it. It is not in release state. Please, if you reading this... Don't buy the game. It might have a potential, the devs might be the best guys ever. Don't support releasing games at such unfinished state (wich is quite common these days).
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →what a game! I am in my 50s and love old school RPGs, you start with nothing and a weak character and you build from there. The game is challenging but not unfair. You dont magically get a perfect map or anything given to you. You have to earn it. If you loved Gothic, Risen etc you will love this. but if you want a game to hold your hand from the start then maybe not for you. 9/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game has massive potential, but judging by how slowly the devs are fixing even the most obvious problems (like the game freezing when you try to sell items to an NPC whose inventory is already full), I seriously doubt it will ever get properly polished. Right now it is playable, sure, but “playable” is the key word here. You are basically enduring it and trying to force some enjoyment out of it, instead of simply having fun. Because of the low budget (it is obvious at a glance, with…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As of 13/12/25 the game is currently very bugged and frequently breaks and make your saves unplayable and the developer has gone silent as it appears they no longer either have the knowledge or people power to do any fixes. Do not buy this gamer in its present state and await a major patch if one ever appears.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is ridiculous. You think its a fun game but when you get into it, you find there are bugs up the wazoo. You can't complete quests because the person that is supposed to be involved isn't there, you can't turn in the items, it bugs out and closes the quest giver interaction. This game is NOT ready to be live. Multiple restarts to try and go a different route is more painful than the last, chests / doors cant be picked anymore or you get 80% of the way and then it breaks. This game is…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I almost wrote a review yesterday after buying and playing for a bit. and it would of been a positive review... but yea... so i love the no quest markers and old school rpg vibes of exploration and listening to what people say... but often times where they say is completely wrong... and not having a map??? like wth kinda of super educated royal capital city cartographer goes "well ill just stay lost and not make a map...: like the world is simple enough to get a gist of it.. but the city??…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is not ready to be considered a "Full release". While Janky systems was what i expected, it is simply too poorly executed, combat needs some more love before it flows properly. Stealing things needs to be clearer, so you don't accidentally loot that one carrot that was flagged as owned. I don't even know why they animated the faces, considering how what they say have nothing to do with how their mouth moves xD Yeah the voice acting is rather bland, but it is manageable,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game has potential but its nowhere near release ready, it should be listed as early access at best. Enemy scaling is painful, introductory quests are missing items, with vanishing npcs. Most city quests can't be completed without using a debug console from modders. For some reason, save files aren't sorted chronologically? It feels like the initial release is the first playtest this game is getting. Revisit in a year, this game could be solid with considerably more time in development.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As of now, this game is confusing Solid voice acting, good writing (as in it gets to the point, just like Gothic), good sense of progression, Ranta mini game is fun But then... Confusing directions - Often times the voice actor says something, but then the subtitles say another, and when you finally get to the place you're stuck going around looking for a random sprite in the ground. That is, if you can even get to place "Go over to Prax, he is in the Outskirts" He was not, in fact, in…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Avoid this product. What good opinions I had have been soured and I could not be paid to reccomend this. I bought this at launch based on the demo that was out, I was there for the janky play test, I had high hopes for it based on the game formula it was copying, that being euro jank such as gothic, risen and elex, the problem is that the developers incorporated more jank than game. The game has been riddled with so many bugs from day one I havent in 76h played made it past the first act…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's a hidden jewel that truely hits that nostalgia from Gothic/Risen genre but it's still a big "work in progress". They've launched their game with critical bugs that made your items vanish in your inventory. They fixed that in patch 1.05 but it's still very buggy. A lot of bugcleaning to do.. and not just barkbugs ^^ Really like the game but as long they don't fix the constant crashing when autosaving/quicksaving/etc.. it's a downvote.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →There are some ways to make money but not a lot. Quests will be your best bet for leveling up as combat is tough especially at the beginning. The lack of map/minimap is really annoying. After almost 20hrs of game our 'cartographer' hero still runs around without point of reference. The journal descriptions also leave much to be desired. sometimes pointing us in a wrong direction. This game becomes monotone quite quickly and you end up running through majority of the zones with mobs (that are…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is ROUIGH! Probably needs another 6 months in development before release. However, I am really enjoying my time with it. i never played Gothic, but I was a big fan of Elex, and this game is very much reminding me of that. I just love a game where your character can barely ♥♥♥♥♥ slap a rat at the beginning, but slowly gets more powerful as the game progresses. immensely satisfying when you become the OP Juggernaut by the end. Fingers crossed that the devs stick with this game and…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Best Gothic-like since Risen. Must play for oldschool Gothic fans. Ignore the negative reviews, most of them are zoomers whining about lack of quest markers or combat being too hard. Game has some issues, there are some bugs and few questionable design choices, but the core experience that we loved in Gothic is absolutely there. They nailed the exploration, it's pure joy getting lost in this game for hours, unable to stop playing because there is always a new interesting location on the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Part love letter to Gothic and Risen, part medieval walking simulator. Positives: Art style and color palate, world design. World is fun to explore, at first Negatives: Relies entirely on nostalgia to keep players engaged, ripping off audio ques directly from Gothic to trick you into thinking you're playing a good game. The amount of time wasting mechanics is borderline criminal, which have been marketed as 'immersive hardcore' etc. For example lock picking mimigame is literally watching…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I think this game has enormous potential but even still after the 1.08 patch I can barely qualify this as beta. The quests are misleading or outright lie to you. They say one NPC is in this area but in fact he's completely somewhere else, or you need these ingredients for that type of stew and it turns out the actual item you need is not on the list. I needed to google to figure this out! This isn't the worst part about quests though. I can understand devs wanted to imitate the Gothic series…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really don't just want to bash on the game because this game has a lot of good things going for it. The amount of detail, quests, depth, all of that is amazing. Like something actually inspiring that other game developers should follow. The stuff that is definitely not inspiring though and the reason this review is negative is the amount of tedious and just really poorly implemented and thought out mechanical decisions that honestly just ruin the game and frustrate me more than I can…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I’ve just started the game and I’m only at the beginning of Chapter One, but it’s already clear how exceptional this title is. I genuinnely believe that in the next couple of decades, people will look back on this game the same way we look at Gothic from 2001 as a landmarck release. This feels like a new benchmark for future RPGs. From the start, the quality stands out: the world design, the graphics, the characters, the dialogue, and the choices all show an impressive level of craftsmanship.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →After the disappointment of the launch, I was ever hoping this game could become what it was set to be. I held back my pessimism because I thought the scope and overall intention were much larger than a small studio could handle. I am very glad the development team kept their head and, fixed all that was going on, and brought us an AMAZING RPG, worthy of its position among the halls of open-world RPGs. In a rule of three, this game is for Indie-development like The Witcher 3 is for triple A…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Of Ash and Steel has the ability to be a really great game but is currently bogged down by numerous bugs, glitches, and awful combat. The exploration is what I enjoyed the most out of this game, lots of areas had secrets to be found with plenty of loot as a reward. Combat is seriously the worst thing about this game, combat is not rewarding or challenging as the devs say, its just straight up cheaty for your enemies. Every enemy swings faster, hits harder, has more health, has more stamina…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It‘s janky, full of bugs (which the devs are actively working on) and pretty rough around the edges. But, it is a great game at heart, solid foundation with the right amount of modernized gameplay sprinkled into a classic rpg experience. It will take some more hotfixes and patches but once all the bugs are out, this game will be one of the best rpg‘s of our time for sure
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game itself has a great concept, lots of cool stories, beautiful locations, many hours of exploring, oldschool RPG vibes, and overall is a lot of fun, but I definitely can't recommend the game in its current state. Gamebreaking bugs - lots of questlines are bugged and broken, you can't finish them - various items can randomly despawn from thr world. NPC' may despawn or become unable to interact with them Quest design - most quest descriptions are very vague and misleading even. - NPC's…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'll do my best to put all my thoughts into a comprehensive manner; We'll start with how excited I was after the demo of this. The story seemed intriguing. Different Island. Ship sabotage. Mysterious robbed men, bandits, thieves, looters. Abandoned villages, volcanoes that put an end to traveling ships. From a roleplay perspective, I was VERY excited! Then gameplay. The tutorial explained that you could level up skills such as cooking, smithing, etc. You could harvest things in the wild,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Together, we are Grayshaft! My recommendation: wait till patch 1.10 get release and then buy it.( i had a game and got an extra discount with the bundle) If you are a Gothic/Risen/Elex fan you will enjoy it. Its gothic-like, and respects the formula, it should be early access not full release, mainly enjoyed the questing and the world exploration. The map is big and not accessible from the beginning, its easy to get lost, but will be accessible later ingame,(steam guides offers a complete map…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I went into Of Ash and Steel pretty excited, and for the first 40-50 hours I actually had a good time with it. Exploring the world, leveling up, and getting into that Gothic style RPG vibe was enjoyable at the start and it felt like the game had real potential. Unfortunately that feeling doesn’t last. After a while the gameplay loop starts dragging, quests become repetitive, and the whole experience becomes tedious much faster than it should. Another big issue is how janky the game feels.…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →At first, I complained a lot about the game, but over time I started to see its real potential. Progress feels incredibly rewarding. When you finally find a meaningful weapon or a ring that unlocks new possibilities, it genuinely changes how you play. Even just seeing your character equipped with that gear in the menu makes it feel earned. If the rough mechanics get patched and explained a bit better, this could absolutely become a cult classic. The dev team is very active and clearly…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really tried. Almost 50 hours in and there is always something to grab your interest, but in between everything nice is 5 jarring bad things. This game is a visual novel trying to dress as an adventure game. The jank is unreal. You are a cartographer, yet you dont even have a map until you can kill lvl 25 enemies, and even then, the map is not good. Also, in an exploration game, as a cartographer, it feels really bad to do all of this exploring, and then just out of nowhere you have a map,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Bought it based on reviews, that is should be homage to gothic. Avoid at all cost. Oh boy, ppl reviewing this game as positive even in patch 1.08 either have no eyes or didn't play past act1. Game is prime example of pinnacle of bad design decisions. And no this is not Miyazaki/Dark Souls hard. It's just bad design layered on top of bad coding. I do not see this game getting better without foundational combat rework. Prime examples: -every enemy hit staggers you, you do not stagger enemies at…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →8 hours in so far and I love it. I started my gothic-like journey with Archolos. Then went to Gothic 2 NotR. Then Gothic 1 Remake. Then Gothic 3 and then I heard about Of Ash and Steel :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is my GOTY. Why? Because it’s a Gothic 1 wannabe in the best way possible. Is it fair? Absolutely not. Is it bug-free? No. But it offers a level of difficulty that is missing from modern games. It’s not a 'Soulslike'—it’s harder, because it actually forces you to use your brain. A lot, all the time. It can be frustrating; you’ll fail even when you do everything right. The game constantly pushes you to try harder, explore, and pay attention to every detail. You have to listen—if you’re the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You can tell a ton of heart and soul went into this game. It's a game without many compromises in terms of feature set and world building. It really takes you back to the magic of old Bethesda RPGs where you could go anywhere and interact with anything. I'd characterize the game as a mid-fantasy world and the best way to describe is if Skyrim and Kingdom Come Deliverance had a child. You start off like Henry, super weak exploring the world and trying to make sense of things, while you have some…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Really enjoyed this one The best part for me was the beginning, playing on hardcore with no map. Getting lost, slowly figuring out the world, trying not to die from every stupid mistake - that was exactly the kind of oldschool RPG experience I wanted :) I would recommend it to people who miss Gothic style games, but maybe wait for a few more patches. On patch 1.07 the game is playable and completable, but there are still small bugs here and there that sometimes mess with the balance and…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Put it back in its not done let it bake properly!!! I have given this game a good chance, i mean its an interesting story well thought but there is just to many bugs and not the (feature) kind, this game has great promise but i really wish the devs would of taken the time to sort everything out in the game before they decided to fully release it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I am ABSOLUTELY loving this game so far ! I usually tend to avoid giving early reviews for longer rpg games like this, but after only a few hours I can say that this game is a hit for me. I've never played any of the Gothic games before, which apparentely a lot of people claim it's where the game took it's inspiration from. But for me, it weirdly reminded me of Fable ! The progression feels great so far. The optimization is great ( running smootlhy with fps locked at 85, no stutter…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Eurojank? Yes. A bit. But that's part of the charm of these games. The story, dialogue and quests more than make up for it. While i haven't yet had a chance to sink enough time into this to be certain - the opening pieces i have played have been fun and make me excited to sit down and play some more this evening This is one of those wonderful old school RPG games that doesn't do anything to hold your hand. You don't have an easily accessible map with waypoints all over your screen. There…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is great combat is fun, exploration is awesome, Npc interaction enjoyable.. The city killed this game for me with no map in chapter 1 i have ran around for hours looking for stuff at the end this game is not meant for me.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As a Gothic fan, you can go for it, but it is damn frustrating until you learn to think like an utter idiot. Then it gets easier. I still don't recommend it, but I can give it the high praise of "Marginally better than Demonicon" As any normal person without heavy burden of fandom. Get out ASAP, this is not for you. The problem is that it copies Gothic heavily without understanding Gothic. Why did Gothic restrict your access to cities and you had to work for it? Why was Gothic stat system as…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm a dummy for buying this despite the bad reviews. I have a high tolerance for jank and bad combat systems, so I thought I might still be able to appreciate this game. For the jank to be unbearable even for me means that it's very, very bad. The only reason whatsoever to play this game is if you're a hardcore Gothic fan looking for something similar. Clearly, the developers were trying to emulate that series as closely as possible. It does well with all of the superficial elements that make…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Let's be clear: this isn’t a AAA title, and because of that I was prepared to overlook many shortcomings… except for the some deeply frustrating design choices. Here is what i mean: The world actively fights against player orientation. Distinct landmarks are scarce, leading to interchangeable landscapes where it quickly becomes difficult to discern where you are. Repeated building assets compound this issue, and the complete lack of a map - even a basic one - throughout the entire first…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I recognized the music in the game some of it also appears in Elex, made by Piranha Bytes. You can tell it’s a low budget title, but it still manages to capture that Gothic atmosphere, maybe even closer to Risen 1. The environment, the hostility, and the roughness are all there, giving it a distinct charm. Overall, I like it and I’ll keep playing. What I don’t know yet is whether the game includes pickpocketing, since that was one of my favorite mechanics in the Gothic series. If you enjoyed…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Stop to ruin score to this game, this is a classic Gothic game. If you don't like to look around and you need pointers - you don't like Gothic games. Go play Skyrim. This is a hard, but a very nice done open world. Each place in this world has meaning. It is buggy, clumsy, but this reward open world allow to forgive everything to this game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is just not finished yet... I played for around 20 hours and had some fun with it. It is punishing and unforgiving in the early game, which I really enjoyed. You really feel the progression of the character with every level. The world is really immersive and invites exploration. However, there are several points that I want to share with you: 1. Exploration On first glance, this game invites exploration with some neatly placed items or quests in the starting zone. It's a lot of…
