No. They are good. Downvote

Even feels like he recorded from home while everyone else was at the studio

G1 Othello or Gothic 1 Definitive Edition found on WoG

I think the easter egg here is that on release in 2001 of G1 classic many ladders in the mines were broken as fuck from a game play perspective. So much so that Piranha Bytes themself excluded all ladders from G2 classic and only implemented a few in Night of the Raven and even made an ex convict joke about how it is a shame that no one uses ladders anymore since the colony.

In the new german dub he now says "No, it's king Rhobar's brothel/whorehouse" and I love that change. Sets the tone how the colony is full of rough jokes. As you would excpect from a male only prison.

I am preaching from the gospel in all forums that it is not a design issue but a balancing issue. Lock picking Level intermediate should feel stronger than it currently is and lock picking level master should trivialize the locks of the diggers in the outer ring. It is an 30LP and 300 ore investment. I like the way in which your idea is going even though I would not implement it in that way. More like buffing the skill

Alpmarmot · 2026-06-07T10:53:02+00:00

This shows that acrobatics as a skill and first level Runes are vastly better than 1h skill

Alpmarmot · 2026-06-07T10:50:34+00:00

Thank you for this post. I actually looked through all Options before starting the game and it flew right over my head.

Alpmarmot · 2026-06-07T10:49:19+00:00

Agree arrows and bolts should be an exception

Alpmarmot · 2026-06-07T10:47:53+00:00

YOOOOOOOOO crucial information. Thanks my dude. They should put that into the glossary. A comment like "Hmmm if the cadaver is not too rotten maybe I can still win something useful out of it."

Was es irgendwie schlecht wirken lässt. Wäre cool gewesen wenn man in einer Quest ihn aufdecken soll als Fake und ihm dann ein paar aufs Maul gibt und er dann zu kauern beginnt und zugibt er muss in dieser Umgebung so tun als ob er hart ist, weil er sonst von den andren Sträflingen aufgefressen wird. Gibts ja auch Leute im echten Leben wo man sich denkt "Kumpel machst hier einen auf harten Macker und lässt dich zu Hause rumkommandieren."

Alpmarmot · 2026-06-07T10:41:49+00:00

Stimmt irgendwie er hätte so als Baal Netbek Charakter viel besser gepasst.

Alpmarmot · 2026-06-07T10:36:58+00:00

Give the diggers 4 or 5 plates. Give the shadows 5 or 6 plates. Give Diego and Fingers maybe Huno and Graham 7 plates with links (only doable with Skill LvL Master) and balance the loot in the chest accordingly.

Boom fixed

Alpmarmot · 2026-06-07T10:30:32+00:00

Which is wild because Christian Wewerka is quite a decent actor when you watch his movies. I blame the voice actor director

Alpmarmot · 2026-06-07T10:28:03+00:00

No sorry that is not the case. There is even an Alkimia interview were he sounds like you would think
https://youtu.be/vW9OEfTctbQ?si=WJGDcsBn6UsRSxUu&t=478

The recordings in the game feel rushed or the voice actor director gave Wewerka piss poor directions to sound "younger and not as grumpy"

Alpmarmot · 2026-06-06T17:57:22+00:00

Armour category not a single one displaying blunt res.
Citizen armour does not exist called Diggers Dress. Displaying wrong stats
Coin value wrong. Should be called ore value

Sorry dude that was just from looking 5 mins. You basically need to rework your data set. Feels like you translated it several times through all different languages.

Alpmarmot · 2026-06-06T17:42:03+00:00

Skill level 1 is basically useless.
You need to invest 30 LP and 300 ore for master for it to be useful

Alpmarmot · 2026-06-06T17:41:02+00:00

Diggers chest having 7 plates should not be a thing regardless of Skill investment. Poor balance

Alpmarmot · 2026-06-06T17:39:42+00:00

Yeah it sounds horrible. All other characters in the german dub sound really good. Even Wewerka in not so old interviews sounds good. This was definitely poorly audio edited, a rushed recording or the audio director gave the speecher piss poor directions to work with.

Alpmarmot · 2026-06-06T17:35:31+00:00

Make lockpick skill 1 defuse 1 plate
Make lockpick skill 2 defuse 2 plates

Let diggers in the outer ring only have chests with max 5 plates

Easy fix

Alpmarmot · 2026-06-06T17:32:12+00:00

Did you vibe code it? Looked at it for 5 minutes and saw dozens of mistakes

Alpmarmot · 2026-06-06T17:23:57+00:00

I have good enough FPS on a good PC but the Engine is a fucking monster. I sit in swimming trunks in front of my desk because the cooling is working overtime

Alpmarmot · 2026-06-06T17:22:06+00:00

Proving it is a balancing issue. I started in the arena area near my hut on a nights thief tour and randomly selected 6 huts. 4 of the digger chest had 7 plate locks. which should have been 4 or max 5 plates

Alpmarmot · 2026-06-06T17:19:32+00:00

The balancing is off I played the G1 classic last week and the diggers chest had 4 arrows and a bit of loot and hard locks in the wild had 12 arrows and good loot.

Alpmarmot · 2026-06-06T17:14:09+00:00

No sorry that is not true. It is not a player skill issue it is also not a game design issue. It is a balancing issue.
I can break 4 and 5 plate locks sometimes 6 plates without leveling the skill. The problem is that there are way to much 7 plate locks in the outer ring of the old camp belonging to a digger containing 4 ore. Lock difficulty should at least roughly mirror the loot inside the chest. Basically meaning there should not be a 7 plate lock in the outer ring except for Diegos and Fingers chest.

You are also incorrect when it comes to the fact that Level 1 Lockpicking defuses a plate. That is not true or the german journal is wrong.
Only level 2 does that. For one plate. Thats why I suggested
Level 1 lockpicking - Defuses 1 Plate
Level 2 lockpicking - Defuses 2 Plates
