The clip comes from Gothic II, the 2002 role-playing game by Piranha Bytes, where gold is the main currency and NPCs constantly haggle, beg and complain about prices. The phrase nicht mal 5 Gold became a running joke in the German Gothic community because so many early-game rewards and trades feel insultingly small. Clips and edits spread it beyond the game on forums, streams and soundboards, where it now works even without context as a universal reaction to being offered far less than something is worth.

A German Gothic 2 NPC voice line complaining a payment is not even 5 gold, used as a meme reaction for cheap rewards and bad loot in gaming videos.
This is a short German voice clip from Gothic 2, where an NPC dismisses an amount of money with the line nicht mal 5 Gold, meaning not even 5 gold. The delivery is flat, unimpressed and a little insulted, as if the offer is not worth discussing. It lasts under four seconds, which makes the disappointment hit instantly. German-speaking gamers recognise it immediately as shorthand for being underpaid, finding worthless loot, or getting a reward that feels like a joke. The humour comes from how seriously the tiny sum is rejected.
