Has Gothic 3 ever become kind of playable? [closed]

I just started playing Gothic again with the intention to play through the whole series in a flow.

I really loved the first 2 (and addon) because of its atmosphere.

I bought the 3rd part 1 year after its release and even a lot additional patches made this unplayable.

The game crashed every here and there. The lovely placed pickups from the previous games looked just like some one placed them with a 20x20 map editor tool.

really: I walked through deserts without any sign of life. And then just to see mirror like symmetric placed objects like trees in a plain so that some of them just almost where completely sunk in a mountain gain, while the others where just flying in the air. I walked along paths and saw wolves dropping from a spawn above my head down onto me.

So my question:

Did they kinda make to fix this

I never really finished playing Gothic 3 since it was disgusting and there was nothing about the atmosphere like in the previous parts.

And if not so, is there some point in the game where the previous named flaws get better? Or are the changes and bug fixes that minor that one will still face such odd things pretty often?
