Risen on Windows 7
I’ve been a huge fan of the Gothic universe since Gothic I. Of course, Gothic III was totally buggy, but I suppose if you have problems with your publishers you aren’t able to make a decent game. Anyway, Risen goes back to the roots and is a convincing, worthy successor and underlines that Piranha Bytes & Deep Silver are a great team.
If you want to play Risen on Windows 7, you might want to consider running it in compatibility mode, because it will probably not work without it:
Run it in compatibility mode for Windows XP and check the option “Run as Administrator”!
I have tested the settings myself and it runs smoothly on Windows 7 x64.
Risen Screenshots
Although, Risen has a completely new story it’s Gothic at heart.
When you wake up, stranded on the coast, you will get that Gothic feeling again:
Risen is so beautiful and has amazing graphic effects. Falling leaves are animated in detail and create a great atmosphere when you walk through the forests of Risen.
Water fountains make the water appear so much more realistic:

This does not work, RISEN does not work in ANY compatibility mode. Don’t waste your time with this guy’s supposed fix, it don’t work!
glen, thanks for the feedback. This fix worked for me, so I though it would be worth sharing. If it did not work for you then I’m very sorry. I took the screenshots above myself, so Risen does work for me now.
If you would post your error message, I can try to find another fix. Maybe you have another problem?
