Agreed. 60% everywhere, that is not the good sign.

BTW, yoga, real Gothic creators (that are Piranha Bytes) makes Risen series now, that is spiritual successor of Gothic - but it also have not much better scores.

Yep, not at all the same series, but that was the only title as G5.

But there are actually a 4th installment for the Gothic-series, an "expansion" of the 3rd game (more like a separate game which demands the original game installed, likely for engine-purpose), called "Forsaken Gods".

Other issue: peaked on Alien Vendetta, and it is a lul. Doom was a dungeon-crawler with tactical parts of the fights, but this mod looks they transformed it into an action-packed adrenalin-bomb. sounds funny, but even a 2 minute video of it made me sea-sick,so no chance I'll ever go back to a doom-engine game

Well, if they are made with the doom or the quake engine, than I won't.

But there are other games, or even if they use a quake-engine, it can be refined for another frequency, so there are some I CAN play if I want, like aside the intro part Requiem: Avenging Angel could work (if I'd install just for that win 98), or Hunted: the Demon Forge. Also, I had no problem during Shadowman either.

I never found a working win98-simulator yet, and to be honest, it was yet not worth the effort.
I mean yes, there are a handful of games I'd like to make work, but it is not a matter of life and death.

Still, i'll look up that OVMV thingy, but if it is like dosbox, I'll likely not master it soon.

For dosbox I only want to run the bloody programs to tell you, and what I get? Ok, there is that "mount" the directory, necessary evil. But than there is the work with cd images: why I have to type a full pages of commands? why can't I have a single command like "mount"? Why isn't there just one button, if the pushing all the combination of buttons is really just smoke&mirror?
now imagine if it is something a wee bit complicated than simple DOS...

Hmmm..
I have 2 PC:
1 with W 7 Pro 32-bit and virtual mounted XP Pro. XP is mounted after W 7
using Oracle VM Virtual box.
Comments:
This virtual XP does not identifies my DVD device and does not allow Drag and Drop files from W 7 screen to XP and vice versa.
My aim was to use this virtual XP as test environment.
Sad to say i am disappointed from this virtual machine.
So i decided to use my second PC as replacement of XP and mounted new XP Pro at the second machine using regular way. It is perfect to play old games and to be reserve variant.
Dear twillight You helped me many times here.
I will make the next test and if it is successful i will inform You for details:
At the second PC (with XP) i will try to install virtual Win 98 (maybe SecondEdition) by Oracle or Windows programs.
Little patience please.
...
Hurray!
I have all 10 available weapons in Alien Vendetta - Brutal doom.
Now brave is more strong.

Mamma Mia!
What a bloody game!!
It is very funny to see how already dead Zombie soldier tries to crawl with its hand.
ha ha ha

PC:Picture is JPG format, slightly remastered.
Do You like it, SS?

Level 14
Very hard game.
Even the best gamers here -
Caro Capo and Smiling Spectre will not pass the game.
I know only 2 specialists who will win the game:
Master Scatty and Kmonster (and humble brave).
Sadly they stop their activity here.

Note:
Pls, do not touch trembling flesh of Yr enemies in AV.
They bite!
In a mean time i will post picture of these fleshes.
