Review by Underdogs:

Gothic II is a superb sequel to Gothic, one of the best RPGs in recent years (and also resident of our Hall of Belated Fame). As great as the first game is, Gothic II is even better: it is prettier, longer, more immersive, and gives you an even wider array of choices. The game begins right after the cliff-hanger of the original game's ending, in which you successfully beat the demon and collapsed the magical barrier that surrounded the penal colony that was your former 'home.' However, this heroic deed left you near-dead in the process, so you start Gothic II after weeks of being nurtured back to life by Xardas, a necromancer from the first game. Xardas solemnly informs you that besides the Orc invasion, dragons are now roaming the lands, and that the task of saving the world once more rests on your shoulders. So off you go to the town of Khorinis in search for a magical artifact called "The Eye of Innos" that Xardas believes can combat this new menace.
