    The phrase "more of the same" strikes one more time. Gamers who liked the main game will find this addon entertaining as well. For RPG enthusiasts, ArcaniA: Fall of Setarrif falls a little short on complexity.

    It's very short but we still had to force ourselves to play on. Dumb non-stop battles, oversized dungeons and a tiring story is basically all there is. Think twice before buying this one.

    Arcania: Fall of Setarrif is unable to bring anything new in the Arcania universe. Same combat, same objects, smaller locations and lesser graphics make this experience a flat promenade toward an (again) unsatisfying final.

    The only difference between this game and the horrendous Gothic 3: Forsaken Gods is that it's almost bug-free.

    Even if you found yourself enjoying Gothic 4, I can't suggest that you pick up the expansion, Fall of Setarrif. It's a poorly constructed add-on to a mediocre game.

    Setarrif ends as soon as it starts, and that defines its final score. You play it for the sole purpose to finish it quickly. If we take its low difficulty and a lack of a great story, then the quick finish is not a problem at all.

    Fall of Setarrif is a fall of Arcania. A new brand that was supposed to blossom on Gothic's carcass has failed miserably. There are no new fans, and the old ones felt betrayed: Spellbound has decided to conduct an open heart surgery without knowing anything about cardiac surgery or what is best for the patient.

I thought that Arcania burried Gothic deep enough, but no, Fall of Setarrif is much worse. It has basically everything what was wrong about Arcania and nothing that was good. Do yourself a favor and forget that this "game" exists.… Expand

    Juego basura. 1/10

    Tiene exactamente las mismas carencias que Arcania: sín dificultad, sín rol, etc. Además, hay bugs como el de iniciar el juego o de cargar partida que son muy molestos, más aún, para el que no sabe leer las actuales guias en inglés acerca de cómo se solucionan estos bugs.

    Lo peor de todo es la duración, me tomó 4 horas terminarlo en la máxima dificultad.

    No lo recomiendo.    … Expand

Par contre, en explorant entièrement les zones de jeu (étendues mais peu nombreuses); j'ai fini le jeu en 3h. Je ne sais pas comment les développeurs ont vu qu'on pouvait mettre jusqu'à 8h pour le finir. Sinon, toujours aussi décevant pour la suite du magnifique Gothic 3...… Expand
