Gothic 1 has very poor mouse support. You can use the mouse to change the camera angle only. You can only attack using keyboard.

Gothic 2 has slightly better mouse control. You can use the mouse to change the camera angle and as well as to attack and blocking. Anyway, people like me who already used to the keyboard control scheme tends to leave it as it is.

Once you are used to the keyboard control scheme, you actually start appreciate it. IMO, keyboard control has the best "feel" of fighting, whereas the new mouse+keyboard controls feel like playing a 3D Diablo. Anyway, that is just my opinion.
