Risen | |
| Risen (Video Game) | comment |
Developed by German developer Piranha Bytes, Risen is a third-person Western RPG released in 2009. It is very similar to the games of the Gothic series made by the developers before they left their former publisher and lost the rights to the franchises name. One of its signature elements is the combat system: You can parry weapons, dodge, and break the enemy's guard. The game is somewhat similar in nature to that of Oblivion, but instead of using level scaling, every enemy is hand-placed by the developers, and leveling is accomplished by paying trainers to slowly raise your stats. This approach in execution makes leveling up feel more like a real accomplishment rather than flipping a flag that gives you instant mastery over all types of weapons, as is usual in this genre.The sequel, titled Risen 2: Dark Waters continues the story from the first game with the same protagonist. This time he tries to stop Titan Lords from awakening Titans who lay the world to waste. It takes place in a tropical setting and introduces several new elements, like firearms. Risen 3: Titan Lords was released in 2014, starring a new protagonist. | |

20 Bear Asses | |
| Risen (Video Game) / int_16e4b425 | comment |
20 Bear Asses: Very commonly required for sidequests and you typically get no warning whatsoever that a particular kind of bear ass will be necessary to advance some questline. This leads to compulsive collecting of all sorts of bear asses you come across during your travels. | |

Not as You Know Them: The Nameless Hero, former main character of the series, appears as a somewhat somber cameo that explains how it's "Not his job" to save the world this time. Quite a departure from the Determinator he was in the previous games. | |

Captain Ersatz | |
| Risen (Video Game) / int_25b5600 | comment |
Captain Ersatz: The entire game world is Gothic with the serial numbers filed off. This is taken to the point where there is nothing stopping it from taking place in the same world beyond (now non-existent) legal reasons. The backstory of the game is also very similar to one of the endings of Gothic 3, strongly implying that this is the same world set some time in the future. | |

Low Fantasy | |
| Risen (Video Game) / int_319cc4d7 | comment |
Low Fantasy: Like the Gothic games before, the Risen series generally fits this trope nicely. Magic exists, but is not available to the public and, in later games, openly hated by the Inquisition and related factions for its ties to the gods and titans, there's generally only one other vaguely humanoid race of importance (Saurians in Risen 1, the Gnomes in the sequels) and even though you may end up saving the world in the process, your main goal is more along the lines of survival and other personal quests. There may be some more High Fantasy elements at place depending on the game, but the general tone is squarely Low Fantasy, with characters being jaded and snarky, and dark humour being the norm. | |

Money Sink | |
| Risen (Video Game) / int_3202932e | comment |
Money Sink: Notably absent. While you can splurge on the better equipment pieces, you can also skip and save the money. By joining the Inquisition or Mage factions, you get your armor for free; the best weapons can be found or crafted. However, in the end, you will end up with tens of thousands of gold coins with nothing to spend on, unless you exploit a GoodBadBug and use them to buy experience points. | |

| Risen (Video Game) / int_34bd7be2 | comment |
Super Drowning Skills: Anything beyond waist-deep water, and you either sink and wash over to the nearest shore, or get swallowed by a giant worm-thing and wash over to the nearest shore. Really more of a sandboxing mechanism. This would only be averted in the third game, where you can swim to your heart's content, the only limitations being that you will be bounced back if you go a certain distance from the shore, and you can't dive. | |

Spiritual Sequel: Risen is essentially Gothic IV with all the names changed thanks to some (now resolved) legal shenanigans between developer Piranha Bytes and publisher JoWood.some explanation After the lackluster reception of Gothic 3, Piranha Bytes and JoWood decided to split up and go seperate ways. The contract between them specified that JoWood had the rights to Gothic, but only for two more games (including expansions), after which the rights would revert to Piranha Bytes. | |

Money for Nothing | |
| Risen (Video Game) / int_5534431f | comment |
Money for Nothing: While all the Risen (and Gothic) games eventually get you to a place where money no longer serves a purpose, Risen 3 is notable for practically starting at that point. The tutorial quest alone showers the player in cash, and while there's Money Sinks everywhere (training your skills is expensive), even the most minor sidequest usually awards you with hundreds of gold, making the high vendor prices meaningless. | |

Charged Attack: Melee attacks (including combat magic) can be charged for a really long time, which makes the fights look like Bullet Time sometimes. | |

Linear Warriors, Quadratic Wizards: Since magic is locked behind joining a faction, regular melee is highly valued in the beginning of the game. The farther you progress though, the more magic abilities become available to the player, including the Elemental Punch spells which are largely superior to even the best swords the game has to offer. | |

BFS: If you invest a lot of points in the Sword skill you will eventually be able to wield double-handed swords in one hand. And wave them around like they're made of Styrofoam. Most two handed swords count, but the absolute king of this trope in Risen is Titanwing, the best sword in the game, which is hinted to be Forged by the Gods before they forcefully left the planet. | |

Unusable Enemy Equipment: Justified. You cannot wield ogre clubs (too big). Saurian swords (also not meant for humans), while usable, require a strength level disproportionate to their effectiveness.

Call a Hit Point a "Smeerp": From this game onwards, Experience Points in the Risen series are referred to as "Glory" instead. | |

Generic Doomsday Villain: Mara. She doesn't really get any kind of personality or goal other than *Conquer the Sea* and appears no more than 3 times in total. | |

| Risen (Video Game) / int_c642b187 | comment |
In Working Order: All the levers, buttons, drawbridges and especially deathtraps function perfectly despite the dilapidated and partially collapsed state of the underground temples in which they're found. No exceptions. | |

Shout-Out: In addition to the above-mentioned Gothic allusions, there also the Buried Treasure of a certain "Captain Morgan". It's a treasure chest filled with booze, which your main character promptly lampshades. | |

Elemental Punch | |
| Risen (Video Game) / int_c859726c | comment |
Elemental Punch: The main spells cost nothing and can be chained in combos like melee attacks. You can't block while using them but gain a ranged attack, can hit multiple targets and your magic attacks are themselves unblockable. | |

| Risen (Video Game) / int_cd3a1755 | comment |
Punch! Punch! Punch! Uh Oh...: The only way to determine that a given enemy is way beyond your level is to start hacking away and monitor its healthbar. Unless it drops noticeably, you will need to spend a good five minutes to kill it, unless you give up and run away first. | |

Take Your Time | |
| Risen (Video Game) / int_cfd569ac | comment |
Take Your Time: Common in all three Risen games, but especially egregious here because your companions will tell you all day how important it is for you to quickly gain back your soul unless you wanna end up as a mindless minion. There's never any real urgency to your quest, might as well idle and complete all the optional side content. | |

Hollywood Voodoo | |
| Risen (Video Game) / int_d8085f48 | comment |
Hollywood Voodoo: Played back and forth. It is predominantly a magic system (with voodoo dolls nonetheless) but characters explain that for the natives voodoo is a religious practice based on the worship of Tiwas (Titans) that are presented much like Loa. | |

Character Class System | |
| Risen (Video Game) / int_e4878443 | comment |
Character Class System: Notably averted. It's true that each of the three factions sort of fills one of the traditional fantasy class niches. The Bandits represent warriors (or thieves), the Order of the Holy Flame represents mages, and the Inquisition is a mix of the two. However, most of the abilities you can learn are class-independent. The exception is the "Seal" skill, which allows characters to cast spells directly from Runes and is exclusive to Mages (everyone else needs to copy Runes into scrolls first, so technically everyone can still cast spells). Crystal Magic skills, which allow characters to fire magical bolts, are not taught to Bandits, but you can craft an amulet that lets you use them. | |
