Community for CRPG games and other RPG gaming discussions. Witcher, Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Baldurs Gate as well as indie RPGs (Underrail, Avernum, Space Wreck etc.). Focus is on CRPGs, but discussion around JPRGs, ARPGs and hybrid games with RPG components is also welcome.
Tabletop/pen & paper RPG discussion is not a good fit for this community. Check out !rpg@ttrpg.network for TT/P&P RPG discussions.
Memes are not banned, but the overwhelming focus is on discussions, releases and articles. Try and post memes (on an occasional basis) that would make people who don't like memes admit "OK! That was a good one!".

I am personally quite fond of both fishing and card minigames, and in some cases (like FF XV or Witcher 3) they can significantly influence my thoughts on the product as whole.
But in this case it's a remake so I can't really fault them for wanting to stick closer to the original. And I never played them so I have no idea whether these types of side activities would be against the spirit of the games.
The magic of Gothic was that you had to discover all the sidequest sides by yourself without the game showing you. Just based on description and a basic map.
Honestly all games should include it as annoptiin unless GPS navigation exists in the world.
