Gothic I and II, both semi-open world action-RPGs, are indeed cult classics among a lot of RPG fans and were influence on quite a few developers and their games (including Witcher and Kingdom Come Deliverance). Gothic III was their first fully open-world RPG, that launched with lot of bugs due to problems that Piranha Bytes had with publisher, but luckily community did their thing and made all the necessary patches - there are lot of Gothic fans who don't like 3rd installment due to losing tightness of first 2, but I liked it quite a bit as well.
You have been spared the Gothic II gold edition.
