It seems like the developers understood this so they just made enemies fly into the air every time you kill them. It doesn't look you're actually having a big impact on them. The attacks now are slow, it looks like you're swinging the air in front of your opponents. It felt like you learned something every time you went to a trainer. The time between your attacks got shorter and smoother. You could see the difference in the attack animations from the beginning to the game to the end. The attacks used to be fast, instant which made them flashy in their own rate. If you forget that sucks for you because the developers didn't even bother showing them in the key binds. You're thrown into a fight with a bow and sword in the place of a tutorial. WASD Keys to move with holding shift allows you to run in place of the speed potions from previous Gothic installments. Talk to someone, pick something up, open something you use the mouse. You fight and interact with the environment with the mouse. The controls have been streamlined to use the mouse more in favor of the keyboard. This was just in time as a horde of bloodthirsty orcs begin charging into the city.

The king himself has sealed himself within a magical barrier that has engulfed the capital city.

The orcs have won the war and captured all the human cities. There is no sanctuary to be found on the mainland. The civil war between the royal garrison and Omar's mercenaries on the island of Khorinis will prove meaningless as the Army of evil will swoop over all the island so the hero with his companions decides to set sail to the mainland. The Nameless Hero has defeated the dragons within the valley of mines, as well as their masters within the Halls of Irdorath.
