| I really can't understand why some of you have such trouble with the combat-system or the controls in general. It took me about five minutes to get along with it. I know many people who like Gothic and Gothic 2, none of them have problems with the controls. Those who aren't into it simply don't like RPGs in general.
But German games are often critizised for being too complex - according to controls and gameplay. Perhaps we're just more tolerant. That would explain why complex games like...for instance Jagged Alliance 2 were more successful in Germany than in the USA. There is still a huge community here.
Apart from that I don't think that the Gothic controls are in any way complex or that a tutorial is needed. And instead of hitting the left control button you could try to actually use the mouse, especially the left mouse button. Works like the left control button. Makes fighting much easier.
