Risen - BBQ Report and Preview @ WoR

World of Risen's English moderator foobar has written a report about a recent Deep Silver community BBQ featuring Kai Rosenkranz from Piranha Bytes and including a preview of Risen based on some play time.  Here's a snip from that:

I can tell you one thing for sure: I really liked what I saw and leaving that room with its RISEN demo PCs was not an easy thing. If you liked Gothic 1 and 2, you will probably also like RISEN and should give it a try. There are differences and also some disputable compromises for what are believed to be the requirements of the modern market. But the product as a whole is really convincing and looks very promising to me.

The article spans two pages, witha description of the event on page 1 and hands-on experiences of the early stages on page 2.

Thanks Kostaz and Ragon der Magier!
