I agree it doesn't take itself too seriously, but that only makes it more entertaining. No they're not especially great lines in themselves, but I guess the mere existence of any lines with some hint of character was refreshing after the dialogue encyclopedias of Morrowind. I may be giving it too much credit, but I still say it does the job.

Again though, I'm playing the German version so our experiences might vary somewhat. I haven't seen enough of the English Gothic 3 to really tell...

Interestingly, it seems the voice acting is actually better in the German version of Gothic 3. Orcs sound less like they're trying to speak in a deep voice and the hero's voice also works better. Perhaps the lines are better in the original too. I don't know. My German isn't good enough to pick up on the subtleties.
