>all of the npcs are unique in KCD2, with their own daily life, their own bed etc. there are no NPCs who just spawn into the world only to walk around in circles with a bucket of water or whatever. every NPC has a fixed and unique inventory. whatever you steal from these inventories is actually gone and will not respawn in their inventory
>combat is pretty much the same as in KCD1 but some weapon types like axe or mace have less available directions now in the combat rose. so the weapon type specifies how complex the attack pattern is going to be. you can do a lot of movement with a one handed sword but a mace or axe is more about raw damage and power which is why those have a less complex combat rose

>NPCs can react to way more things now, for example if you drop a hat from your inventory while you are in a town, NPCs can decide to pick it up and wear it. also all of the corpse found, bandit found etc scenarios are more complex now and citizens and guards are going to react more realistic

Probably wrong on some details but I haven't touched the game since launch, never tried the DLCs because they seemed pretty short or the hardcore mode. Worth replaying with the DLCs and hardcore?

henry never actually becomes a knight though, he is never properly knighted and is just a man at arms for radzig
FF16 did have poc.
colored people?
people of conflict (blacks)
Yeah
Or Black folk as I like to call them
The game have arabs but no Black folk.
There wasn't a single black person in it. It had desert people, who according to /misc/ are "based" even though I dislike all ragheads, but no blacks.
>yes Black folks and feminist women should be in every game and era and location

lmao
It’s hard for me to believe that people like this actually exist outside of the web. It’s so hilariously extreme that they end up just fighting each other to see who can virtue signal the most for internet cookies.
He's equivalent to an esquire or mant at arms (not knight) and bastard nobility, not "just a blacksmith"
Historical accuracy applies to portraying social norms, not the hero's personal story. If the settting surrounding the story featured lots of peasants becoming nobility independent of the protagonist it would be historically innacurate, but that doesnt happen.

Idk if it's any different with more powerful at single threading shintel CPUs, but with a 5800X3D I still get drops to the low 40s sometimes in Rattay, KCD1 is absolute garbage in the optimization aspect.
I sure do hope they at least take some advantage of multi-threading in KCD2...

Except KCD is good and oblivion is dog shit
lmao
Somehow Oblivion still has better combat
Man get the frick out of here. If you’re not baiting you genuinely have garbage taste.
KC and The Witcher 1 have the worst combat of any "modern" game I've played. They're both terrible and easy to cheese, moreso than DMC2.
I don’t understand what people like you want. It’s supposed to be an immersive/realistic depiction of 14 century combat. You’re not going to be doing backflips and slaying 6 people with magic fireballs and Katanas with flaming embers in 1 motion. KCD combat is nowhere near perfect because of master strike spamming but if they manage to tweak it a bit (which it sounds like they are doing) it’ll be great.
Even with Elder Scrolls being around, these types of games are really rare nowadays. The more the merrier I'd say.
no. this game is set in a real place and really tries to be historically accurate. as much as it might kinda look like oblivion, the entire idea is completely different.
I think you meant to say: Todd lied about all this stuff in Oblivion
It's not a medieval game if I can't impale someone with a couched 10ft long ornate lance on horseback
in 2024 when?
Varva said late, so maybe december?
Christmas eve release would be kino
I hope it has ray tracing I just got new graphics card and most games I play don't have it.
Crysis remastered had RT so I don’t see why warhorse couldn’t implement it.
Dude, RT ist literal fricking meme tier shit.
>threads up about this game and woke shit with 200+ replies

Is the combat for this game better on PC? I think I'm more than halfway through the first game on xbox and I still don't understand how fighting works.
the combat is standard PC game. I haven't touched a console since I got a job and stopped being a poor ass toddler.
It’s designed around mouse movements yes
How can you not understand the combat bro? Did you continue training with captain bernard? He teaches you everything. You have to go back to him and not just that one time early when you first get to rattay,
idunno I can't pull off any of the combos or counters with the gamepad so I've just been spamming headshots
I have top tier equipment so it's not that hard
Press the left bumper once when you see the enemy in the beginning animation of their attack.
It's PC game after all
>saviour schnaps is in KCD 2 but it is easier and cheaper to get than in KCD 1
It's amazing what a fuss people kicked up about this.

>complain about the morons of today
>immediately out yourself as a modern moron by using the word patients instead of patience
pick up a book dumbfrick
Yeah people are fricking dumb. I NEVER had save issues on hardcore mode. There’s beds almost everywhere to sleep and save,bathhouses, saviours schnapps, and save & exit right from the pause menu. If anything they should have filtered out even more morons and removed half of that.
After pillaging skallitz money is no problem at all in kcd
I dropped Witcher 3 when I realized the potions just magically replenish after you take a nap.
>NPCs can react to way more things now, for example if you drop a hat from your inventory while you are in a town, NPCs can decide to pick it up and wear it
They already did that. I learned that the hard way when I was overloaded with gear so I dumped a whole bunch of spoils right in the middle of town as I tried to manage my inventory... And then the patrolling guard just picked it all up. Probably 3,000 grochen worth of Cuman and Bandit armour...
Yea but they don’t wear it though.
I'm so fricking ready bros.
BNHA is garbage but holyfrick it has some top tier waifus
They said the game will be more diverse in the IGN interview, it's over. I expect to meet an exotic black man trying to buy white blonde women slaves for the Ottoman sultan.
>combat unchanged
Oh well. I literally fell off KC:D because of the combat.
filtered
Filtered by shitty combat? I'll take it.
>just take 3 weeks of HEMA bro!
I'm playing escapist fantasies. Why should I have to grind out swordplay? It's literally not fun to fight in KC:D and the only incentive to train in combat is so you can skip it.
>Filtered by shitty combat? I'll take it.
Shouldn't you be spamming bit titted slags in a Skyrim thread somewhere?
Nope. I'm a connoisseur of action combat. KC:D sucks.
No, it's a big gay attempt to infuse the game with HEMA principles but it's not fun. Maybe it could be done right but as it stands I'll go play Hellish Quart if I want HEMA focused action combat.
so which first person rpg game has the better combat in your opinion?
None of them unless they're ranged focused. First person perspective is dogshit for melee unless you're doing a VR driven motional controlled thing.
Dark Messiah you homosexualy little zoom zoom.
>i'm a connoisseur of action combat.
notice the narcissistic chut rhetorics
Anon, I'm standing near about 8 posters from Action game series next a shelf and desk covered in action game figurines. I'm an action connoisseur. KC:D's combat is unfun. If you're able to derive pleasure or tolerate it for the other good stuff, that'[s good for you.
such a big boy look! he spends so much time with things he hates
>he hates the things he spent hundreds of dollars and covered his personal space in
Uhm...Are you okay anon? You take too many vaccines? Smoke some funtanyl?
shoo shoo dust your bigboy funkopop collection now
Shut the frick up moron. You're the one who tried to claim I spent hundreds of dollars on Action Game merchandise for games I hate/because I hate Action Games. KC:D's combat fell well short of my standards for ARPG combat. It's a shame because it does so much right but... Bad combat isn't something I can just ignore. I wanted combat that wasn't thrilling and high skill, I'd play a turn based game.
oh mah gawd funkopop bro! all I said is you came here itt and talkin about things you hate, mb you should spend time on something you love
Nah, I'll complain about what I want where I want my fragile little homosexual. Cope. You're behaving about as badly as the whiny SJW types you surely hate.
well just imagine how your sphincter muscles could vice grip those wilt chamberlain figurines of yours only if you devoted more time and effort to the things you truly love. squirt on them action game lil homies some doordashed iced coffees and mcdonald's while you're at it!
>THE HATERS ARE ALL GOYSLOP CONSUMERS UNLIKE US BASED AND SOVLPILLED KC:D DICKRIDERS
You're pathetic. Just enjoy your hype and stop being such a fricking woman about people having opinions that make you feel bad.
well I'd ride something dick shaped instead of a poor figurine
Not him but you’re the one acting like a woman here. I can’t speak for anyone else but I don’t go into threads about games that I dislike knowing damn well that you’re going to end up e-arguing about it while self proclaiming yourself as an “action connoisseur“ like anybody gives a shit.
All I did was state an opinion plainly and get attacked. If people want to pick a fight, that's on them. I come to Ganker to shit on idiots who think they can talk shit to me.
He's the woman. This post is a woman's post
>Doesn't he KNOW he's not welcome here! Ewwww!! Why doesn't he just go away!!~
You're a weak little b***h.
How can one increases his manly qualities? Like do I really need to invest into marvel figurines and save anime reaction pics from the board?
No no no no, you'll never be one so I suggest you just keep investing in this "gigantic whiny shitbaby" life path you seem to be on already.
oh my gawsh funkopop bro? you really seem heated on the internet.I-I.... certainly did not intend to offend someone of such refined discernment, exquisite taste, and distinguished standing as a collector and patron of statuettes. it's just some innocent jestin truly!
That's the spirit. Keep on refining your womanly homosexual temperament. You're clearly very committed to it and will likely have more success doubling down on it than attempting to change course and actually grow some balls or have any internal strength.
aw I'm so SORRY my sensitive babyboy :/
>some fragile gayola is having a meltdown because somebody didn't rate their mediocre game a 10/10
Every time with these "based" /vee/core games.
>"based" /vee/core
Often are magnets for people from shithole countries. Places like Eastern Europe or South America where right wing conservative views are more popular and less rejected by society. So what you end up with is impoverished third worlders who hate modern wokeslop but are kind of badly raised, ill-mannered morons.
>less rejected by society.
the great lie of leftism
you can hate the game as much as you want, but when you say "I kinda like the game"/"I'm interested" (i.e. I'm a prospective customer), BUT... this this and this (all the things other people love) needs to change to my mongrelized gayout/Assrim/Morrownig/Nig Souls aesthetic liking is when it becomes a problem for true fans.
I have heard HEMA is the big gay, can you explain why it is irl anon ?
Oh no don't get me wrong. HEMA is insanely based but only as a structure to learn martial discipline and engage in physical fitness. The elements of technique and theory as they've attempted to apply them to the combat in KC:D just feel limiting and boring.
KC:D basically handcuffs you and makes combat unresponsive and stiff in ways that force you to sort of LARP at HEMA. What I think it should have is something FUN and then if they want HEMA to matter, knowledge of HEMA principles and applying them would be something you work into the game balance in subtle ways.
KC:D fans are very very very defensive. I can understand why to a degree but... Even back when I got this game shilled to me people were like
>The combat is asses sprinkled with farts, just grind it so you get OP and then spam the OP things.
>KC:D fans are very very very defensive
It's a gem in a sea of shit. Clearly it was made with passion unlike 99% of what you see today.
literally filtered
it has one of the best combat for a first person RPG ever.
This. I’m shocked at the amount of people saying it’s shit. I’m convinced they were fricking filtered.
I find it bizarre that people equate disliking something with lacking skill. Madden is a bad football sim, and it's not because it's hard.
Because when you ask them what their favorite similar game is, they say Arkham Asylum (spam X 20 times to kill 10 people around you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y80jiJvr8HA&t=3m46s ) or W3/DS (combat roll spam). There is a reason the meme video of a raccoon rolling around in the grass https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KkICErsTKEU has a ton of "boss POV" comments. This game does something different (at least attempts to). So the reaction is part cultural defensiveness, part snobbery.
I detest people who play Moralesslop, DS/DD or any other asiatic-fantasy games (where they rip off European history and bastardize it for the muttoid WWE-poisoned audience). When you have fricking moronic midwestern college football bros https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVY_H6jhWZU and Twitch camprostitutes taking pride in enjoying your favorite game (or a TV show, for that matter, like what happened with GoT/Witcher/RoP), you know it panders to the lowest common denominator normies.
There are very few truly European games that exude the spirit of this part of the world, and of course people get angry when people with money to spend want to change it to their liking (the same way weebs get angry when journos raise the issue of "diversity/pedophilia in anime").
If they have learned from the first game then this can be really good. I just hope we won't have something like the monastery quest again
Yeah I hope it's all just boring fetch quests. We don't need KINO
>I just hope we won't have something like the monastery quest again
You know what, I take that back. It was good except for the strict schedule
>except for the strict schedule
That's how monasteries are tho
I know, it just made it feel terrible to me. The idea itself was good
is pretty much the same as in KCD1
So, shit?

"Historically accurate" game, my ass. If you add guns then add marginalized groups too. The dev is a hippocrip.

They also drew a dragon, therefore it's now real?
Y'alls are so gullible it's insane.
It's a fricking pipe with gunpowder, it's not that hard to do!
Yeah alright sure, let's assume there really were guns back then (there weren't). Who told them how to use gunpowder when there allegedly were no bipoc? It's called black powder for a reason you know, black people invented it.
>he doesnt know the chinese invented it europeans just perfected it
>and chinese invented it thousands of years prior
A black gay man it, he just happened to reside in china. It's a documented fact. Do they not teach y'all history at all?
invented it*
It's the truth.
Why the chinks didnt conquer asia or europe?
>Who told them how to use gunpowder
Chinese
>It's called black powder for a reason you know, black people invented it.
Great bait.
>It's called black powder for a reason you know, black people invented it.
Made me chuckle
>black people invented it.
Then it would be called POCwder
This is nearly as stupid as the anti fire arrow anon
wouldnt every gun look different because mass production wasnt really a thing yet until the industrial revolution, unless a blacksmith had one specific mould he used over and over
bronze was used for cannons earlier on specifically because it could be moulded into shape
it's only later that iron cannons became standard
>it's only later that iron cannons became standard
there were iron or even steel guns back then but they had to be hammered around rod in to shape the same way you would make a tall glass out of iron. They were very expensive though and reserved for nobility, just like custom swords. But otherwise yeah, brass or bronze was used for cannons due to it being relatively easy to cast.
>unless a blacksmith had one specific mould he used over and over
molds for brass weren't that long lasting back then. High temp steel casting wasn't perfected back then and tungsten wasn't a thing yet, they used the same the type of molds that where meant to make stuff like candle holders but they broke down pretty quick and had to be re-made often; it's why most weapons were still hand forged for strength.
That being said most guns were similar due the nature of the requirements, there is only so many ways to make a hollow cylinder and stuff like decorations just make the process needlessly complicated. Most guilds would have a sample size for the iron shot so while there was variation it wasn't as vast as one would think. Guns only started getting really varied once they became complicated enough for design differences to make a impact on performance.
There were boomsticks in the 1400's moron. Get over it. Stop trying to force Black folk into every piece of media. Nobody likes them.
This, blacks didn't exist till the late 1900s, just like the gays.
That guy's clearly just trolling but he's right in a way. The game takes place during the first half of the 15th century, and while Gunpowder weapons did exist in Europe at the time they were exceedingly rare and expensive as well as crude and unreliable. You would not see Cannons being fielded in Bohemian armies regularly until after the Hussite wars, which is roughly 30 years after the timeframe of the first game and likely before the second game as well.
It depends on how widespread they actually are in the game, but outside of the major powers at the time it would be the medieval equivalent of a modern naval vessel operating with railguns and lasers. It's technologically feasible on paper, but not really viable logistically or tactically in practice.
I just hope crossbow doesnt aim like ass and need lot of skill grind to use it properly i get it why bow you need discipline
a crossbow still needs a lot of practice. I have a hunting crossbow for buck and I had to practice quite a bit to get good enough to make a clean shot at 50 yards, it's like firing 22lr but with worse drops and wind deflections. And that's with a modern precision crossbow with a scope, uniform material construction, and near perfectly straight aircraft grade aluminum bolts. A carved wooden crossbow from a era before precision machining would be a lot hard to get a good shot with.
I have an older version of picrel and it has a draw weight of 180lb, ancient crossbows didn't have that kind of power due to material tech not being there yet making straight shots that much harder. There is a reason bows and arrows still saw active military use until revolvers and repeaters were invented.
nobody cares, homosexual
you cared enough to make that useless comment.
The Rosenbergs are mentioned in the first game and money counterfeiting is a big plot point so israelites are definitely gonna be involved.
given that the art director is a troony I would not be surprised.
all those games are AAA though
don't worry, israelites are working hard to make sure it will be stamped out ASAP
the studio head is a literal actual israelite
the bearded guy? He doesn't look or act like a israelite at all. Eastern euro israelites are some of the most obvious ones out there, you got a pic and some proof?
You could've looked in his early life as well
well... shit
Still, he doesn't come off as a israelite to me and could just be saying "israeli heritage" the same way American conservatives have a black friend. Either way, he's either a israelite or a coward... explains the troony in charge of the art design.
I know slavic women age like milk but "she" has a jawline of linebacker. Until I see proof that she is a women I am gonna assume the worst.
>troony derangement syndrome is real
more like paranoia, I live in a college town and these things are everywhere. Every single person working at my local Chick Fil a is a Black person or troony and we had a troony march in town last year.
>Still, he doesn't come off as a israelite to me
You're close to understanding.

>The Rosenbergs are mentioned in the first game and money counterfeiting is a big plot point so israelites are definitely gonna be involved.
the rosenbergs in bohemia weren't israeli, moron. the 'berg', 'stein', and other 'israeli' surnames started as german surnames. for example, one of the fathers of nazi theory was called alfred rosenberg and was important in the nazi rule from 1933 till 1945
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosenberg_family
berg is a common word for town in Slavic and Germanic tongues, I'm aware. As for them not being israelites that's hard to confirm since this was the same era where the inquisition (the eastern inquisition is less famous than the Spanish one but was actually a lot more brutal) was in full force and a lot of israelites pretended to be Christian to avoid getting killed. Banking in eastern Europe at the time as FULL of converso's
Berg is also a germanic word for mountain
Source: i'm swedish (every other swede has Berg in their last name due to 19th century state-mandated location based last names)
>given that the art director is a troony I would not be surprised.

Wtf is up with your pc to get that kind of drops? On my old shitty ryzen 5 5500 I was getting 100 fps in Rattay once everything was loaded with drops to 60-70 in the tournament area.
No fricking idea, with a 3070 at high settings it usually overs at around 100s, once I get to Rattay it lowers to around 70 and occasionally it has sudden dips to the 50s.
Although I do wonder if your memory isn't playing tricks on you anon, another anon above said that with a 7800X3D he gets dips to the 50-60s in Rattay, so my experience with the 5800 seems to match proportionaly.

that was me, I still have the game installed on my ssd and have a similar experience on my 3080
>Wtf is up with your pc to get that kind of drops? On my old shitty ryzen 5 5500 I was getting 100 fps in Rattay once everything was loaded with drops to 60-70 in the tournament area.
Different parts of Rattay had different levels of drops for me. The area with the armor show had the worst but once I got to the northern gate it would pop back up to around 110 and once I was out of town near the inn it would be a solid 120 capped.
The most jarring thing was the massive fluctuations ridding though town. Riding from the southern gate to the northern fate I would get two huge drops until a large chunk of NPC were out of sight.
I played it like 2 months ago, and that was on my third playthrough on the same cpu. Should try it out and see how it fares with the 7600 I upgraded to.
moron. Guns have been a thing in Europe since the 1300s. 15 years after KCD begins a period that helped proliferate guns in warfare, The Hussite wars.

>controls and camera absolute shit for fighting more than one on one
>game throws three on one at you, repeatedly
>g-git gud
Hard pill to swollow, but the combat was complete trash and it had nothing to do with 'being hard'. Because it wasn't. It didn't know if it wanted to be skill based or stat based so it awkwardly tried to do both and thus failed at doing either, the camera was horrible, the controls were at best 'a bit jank' and the games best combat moments came in one v one as the controls were clearly designed for, yet the game throws gangs at you.
The sheer lack of SOVL in this post is turning my hair red.
The game had plenty of soul despite its shitty combat system, not because of it.
>one v one as the controls were clearly designed for, yet the game throws gangs at you
That's called realism
>shitty controls is realistic
Warhorse could shit down your throat and you'd claim it tasted of chocolate.
Are you really that moronic that you don't understand that being outnumbered in a fight puts you at a great disadvantage?
Not only that but the game encourages you to run away at some points and there’s multiple ways of dispatching groups of enemies without running towards them (arrows, stealth, poisoning, etc.)
The fact you're outnumbered should be reason enough to run away, not because you're dealing with shitty controls
>We'll design the controls to be shitty on purpose, so people are encourged to run away!
No dev ever said, or thought this, ever.
AI being fricking trash and combat unbalanced does not mean that the core idea wasn't good, they need to refine the system so that using different skill, attack directions is the only way to properly open up a hard skilled enemy
Don’t worry little zoom zooms I’m sure they’ll add a DRAGON SHOUT FUS DO RAHHHH to take out mobs of fully armored knights amirite fellow gamers?
>Americans genuinely believe diversity == jamal from the hood as to be there
We know what the word diversity means in 2020+4. IGN and Warhorse are using the term differently though. What Warhorse is talking about is different types of White people. IGN is trying to fud the game implying it will have blacks.
Is the first game worth playing? I like fantasy RPGs but I'm not sure how I'd feel about one thats more grounded
the game is too realistic, germans are depicted as rude and autistic
It's one of the most immersive games ever made. You will feel like you're in the 1400's. Definitely worth $7.
It is fantastic.
Its boring, there isn't any dragons or goblins and the deversity is SHOCKINGLY low. There is a dlc where you can play as a woman which is good but 90% of the game you play an entitled white boy who gets everything handed to him.
>goblins
They're called cumans, retart
I don't accept those things as people.
One of the finest RPGs ever created. That’s not hyperbole,even better if you’re in the slightest bit interested in history. It’s also one of the few games where I didn’t cringe at the writing since it’s very well done.
Which fantasy rpgs do you like? You can be honest
Skyrim and The Witcher 3 hbu?
I didn’t like either of those games but you should still give kcd a shot. Take your time with it.
So you're a basic npc then?
It's ok, like a 6/10. I'll echo the others ITT and say the combat is terrible, but the vistas *can* be pretty. It's CryEngine so it'll run like dogshit even if you have a supercomputer. I honestly found Henry to be a bit unlikeable, but he was a whiny b***h for 99% of the game. The sequel appears to have fixed that, he looks like a proper man now. The music sucks, but staying on the topic of sound the voice acting is excellent. Side content is a bore - it's mostly fetch quests and menial tasks, you won't be dungeon diving or doing anything cool. It's extremely realistic, so you can forgot magic, goblins, skeletons, etc.

It’s like we played two completely different games. I strongly disagree with almost every single word that you posted.
To each their own. Glad you liked it.
You didn't play this game. You don't need a supercomputer, or even a high end computer. The combat is great. And Henry is a pussy because he's supposed to be 15
>music sucks
Why are you even in this thread? You clearly don't like this series. It's great and you hate it. Maybe you'll be more comfortable with some kojima slop

Sure, but since you made a claim (and got proven wrong) it's now my turn to ask for something first. Post your music credentials.

There you go homosexual. There’s your attention.
Yes you definitely need a beefy pc/laptop if you want to enjoy unless you are peasantconsole (le sub 30fps is le fine). I have to use the optimized graphics mod to make the game stutter less and it STILL feels very stuttery in rattay despite the 60+ fps, especially when i move the camera and in the tournament area
>I have to use the optimized graphics mod to make the game stutter less and it STILL feels very stuttery in rattay despite the 60+ fps, especially when i move the camera and in the tournament area
thats actually a CPU not a GPU problem. Almost all the NPC scripting is run off a single thread so when there are a ton of heavily scripted NPC's in the loaded area the game start to lag due to not being able to switch between them fast enough.
I have a 3080 and played the game @1080p and in Rattay I am sitting at around 45% utilization but my frame-rate drops from 120fps down to 50 to 65fps even on my 7800x3D
The whole game is very poorly optimized, the studio outright admitted it and said that because it was their first game and first time using the engine they didn't know to to cull and distribute resources which lead to them making mistakes early on in development that would require at total rework to fix and they just didn't have the time or the money given the scope of the game.
Originally the first game was meant to be bigger but Warhorse just didn't grasp what that would require
Kek 15 well atleast he didnt look so old as nioh 2 hideyoshi when nioh 2 have lot of anime shit
the best RPG ever made
you start off as a literal nobody with no skills
you can't even fricking read
throughout the game you need to learn skills and practice to become good, and you slowly find yourself becoming competent
exploration is fantastic and it has the best forests in any game ever made
>playing a game directed by a literal actual israelite
i shiggy diggy
Replaying the game now on hardcore. I haven’t played it since I beat it a few weeks after it released. Am I going MAD or does the game feel so much easier now than it did when it first came out? Was it patched or something?
Why were there no israelites in the first game even though the director was israeli and rattay had a israeli quarter? Could it be that he didn't want his kin to get virtually hate crimed?
this is legit the happiest ive been for a reveal trailer ever. I thought maybe they gave up on the sequel, or maybe embracer cut funding (would be stupid, but possible) and that it ended up in dev hell, but they were working hard in secret for 6 YEARS. I haven't been this excited for a reveal since the good old days of E3. We're going home, lads.
They were smart in doing this, I hate when games are announced and take 2-3 years to release.
me too, im surprised there wasnt a teaser at all cause SO MANY people wanted a sequel.
best surprise of today? 2024 release date. I expected maybe early 2025 or later, but they must be almost finished the game.
Same brother, I can't wait, day one for me after years not buying games at day one
Henry's come to see us!
I literally cannot tell if this is a troony or not.
Its troony 100%
just an average Czech woman. many such cases.
She was too ugly to hang out with Czech Stacies and chase that Black person wiener so she had to cope with chuds like Vavra
It's clearly a woman with a woman's voice, but the pretty ones usually don't go into vidya development.
Protip: Go outside and talk to real women
She looks cute in a chubby way
Slav women have strong jaws
I lived in eastern Europe for many years, Slavic women do not look like that. You do get some girls with angular jaws but I have never seen a slav women with a refrigerator for a face.
>posts some models in a staged photo
Yeah
As someone who lives in Czech republic, you are wrong.
It's just your average slav woman bro
Todd figured this shit out two decades ago on a console that can barely run Half Life 2.
>Todd figured this shit out two decades ago on a console that can barely run Half Life 2.
No that was Yu Suzuki with Shenmue on the fricking DREAMCAST. Todd is a hack b***h.
No that was Richard Garriott with Ultima 5 in 1988 on a PC weaker than your wristwatch.
Vavra is a fan of Shenmue? Very based. A shame about the third game not moving the plot more. Now we'll never get a fourth.
Game should have ended at 3 frick yu suzuki
Yu Suzuki wanted to stick to his vision even if it kills him.
I wish they kept the bug where you could attack outside of the lock on system so you can hit multiple enemies at once or prevent them from blocking.
It's almost impossible to fight multiple enemies with melee if you're ganged up on, even if you're a fully armored knight against regular bandits when they have you surrounded, unless you "cheat" and use bow to headshot them.
Move backwards and use your environment to fight them one on one.
Henry is a poor moron peasant. Givevhim a break.
>It's almost impossible to fight multiple enemies with melee if you're ganged up on
It really, really isn't. One of the most fun times I had with this game was clearing out that entire bandit army you're meant to spy on, by killing every single one of them as they came at me.
You need to back up, block if you're using a shield, and pick your moments.
QTE counter or no?
I hope the stealth system is more robust. I LOVE just sneaking around, breaking into houses and stealing shit. Mostly merchants
gonna play deliverance for the first time. doess this need mods or is it good vanilla?
are people mad there are no Black folk yet?
Just resetera mostly but then again I don’t consider them as people.
Reminder that these homosexuals are getting warnings even on Resetera for screeching over muh racism, that's how insufferable they are
i dunno, what are they saying on resetera?
>less sexism
>in kingdom come
>has a Minthara pfp
Ok thats some advanced mental gymnastics
look, when he replies with a reaction pic that's totally not samegayging hehe
The first game was really good, but I wish henry didn't act like a huge moron at certain scripted moments. With the side quests you decide his personality but then he *has* to be mad at Hans the first time they meet, he *has* to fight Runt on his own, etc. I don't like that stuff
>saviour schnaps is in KCD 2 but it is easier and cheaper to get than in KCD 1

This
schnaps is in KCD 2 but it is easier and cheaper to get than in KCD 1
but it was already piss easy to get.
Not for zoomers that want to kill cumans after henry village rape
I think I’m getting my hopes up for wishing that they make combat much more difficult. By early-mid game I was destroying everyone.I want to feel challenged at higher levels and taking on more than 1 Cuman should have still been something that you think twice about. Despite this I found the combat enjoyable and I can’t wait for this.
Never get your hopes up for anything these days, I'll wait for its release before any hype.
>NPCs can react to way more things now, for example if you drop a hat from your inventory while you are in a town, NPCs can decide to pick it up and wear it.
It’s like time travel to 2005
Ignore the tards bros.. what weapon did you find the most fun to use? Sword,axe, mace, warhammer?
Halberds it was like playing dinasty warriors with that weapon without over the top anime shit
>combat is pretty much the same as in KCD1
are there any people that actually liked the combat?
it was fine 1 on 1 but any group fights were terrible since the AI would just have the other NPC maneuver behind you and backstab you to death while the game forces you to fight the guy in front with no way to cover your back
But that’s exactly what would happen in real life. I countered this by backing away as far as I could before I even ended up in that situation and shot arrows. You can also bait enemies away from their groups by doing this.
>But that’s exactly what would happen in real life.
part of knight training was various blocks and tactics on how to deal with that, none of which are in game for Henry. Also, the way combat is setup it's designed to nat allow you to manuver in a way that keeps all eneies in your line of sight to attack in way where you quickly switch between targets.
Cut one guy, take a swing at another, push or kick guy 2 in to guy 3; fricking dogs understand this concept.
A basic thing that's taught in all one on multiple group combat is to force the group to attack you from a set angle then redirect their attacks in to each-other. The goal is to control the flow of battle in a way where you can use your enemies strikes against one another or get some distance between you and them where you can get all but one out of range.
The games combat system FORCES you to engage one on one without any ability to direct battle, worse yet the camera auto engages targets even when you are trying to run away so you can't run straight until you are certain distance away
I stand corrected. Thanks for the detailed post anon. There are a number of ways that the combat could be improved so we just have to hope that they follow through and listened to feedback. Are there any games out there that are this detailed when it comes to realistic combat?
>There are a number of ways that the combat could be improved so we just have to hope that they follow through and listened to feedback.
yeah, that or you have Hans back you up in a fight.
All the tactics I listed were intended as a last resort, the most effective method knights were taught was to just have a buddy go with you so you can stand back to back with him.
>Are there any games out there that are this detailed when it comes to realistic combat?
the Nioh games get close but are very fantastical in terms of what the player can do even if you disregard the magic powers. The problem is that games want the player to feel like an army of one when in reality when faced with multiple enemies the rule is "get way if you can" or "fight only enough to run away". IRL combat strategy is, using group tactics to overwhelm a target one at a time, picking off a target at distance, or crush a target with overwhelming force.
The most realistic thing Henry could do is call for backup then set up a trap or choke point where a guy acts as bait while archers pick off the attackers chasing him. Other than that, poisoning food, sabotaging equipment at night, and using a bow to pick off a guy or two before the group can enguage is the most realistic thing about medieval combat.
The whole one man against all odds bit is the last thing any proper military wants a soldier to do, real battle is a team sport... but that's not much fun for a game.
That forced lock on really annoyed me. I get that I'm not supposed to be a super hero even when I'm wearing extremely expensive armor and swinging a likewise fancy sword. I just felt like I wasn't able to actually express any player skill in the combat because I was fighting the system itself instead of the enemies. My camera just whipping around of its own accord when I'm trying to back up or control the way the enemies were coming at me was the most artificial difficulty shit I've experienced in a long time.
The combos were satisfying to pull off, but they felt really inconsistent. Sometimes a combo would work, sometimes you'd constantly get interrupted regardless of Henry's skill level or how often you mixed up the combos
I do enjoy it
In what way? I thought it was as historically accurate as you could possibly get in a video game without being a book or a movie.
>In what way?
The quest structure mainly. It played very similar to how I remember RDR playing. Except with worse Chivalry combat.
But there’s a lot of different ways you can approach quest with different outcomes unlike recent rockstar games.
Ill never forget the mission failed: you tamed the wrong horse of rdr 2 KEK or one ally npc randomly dying if you get out of the focused mission zone
RDR2 had this incredible open world with the most restrictive mission structure possible. It’s why I don’t remember it too fondly.
to be fair that's not a bad thing, the reason missions are controlled so heavily is because there are lots of action set pieces that would not be possible if the player could approach a fight any way they wanted.
Sure, you get more freedom but you also can't have cool sequences like firefights on a moving train
Action set pieces can be cool if used sparingly but I remember rdr2 being mostly set pieces when it came to main missions. The real meat and potatoes of the game was exploration and finding stuff on your own. I remember being able to set up obstacles in the original gta trilogy before a mission began and it actually working exactly as I plotted it out was incredibly satisfying….i wish rdr2 had stuff like that.
Personally didn't like the first game because it felt like a medieval Rockstar game.
And it will probably be a buggy shitshow that needs a 4090 to run above 30 fps. I'll wait until I see it.
>needing top tier graphics card to run the game

Don't care, different studio means it's going to be full of Black folk and stronk women.

>whatever you steal from these inventories is actually gone and will not respawn in their inventory
Nice touch, but that's not very Christian.
Is this even allowed in 2024
Do not tell anyone but central europe is still 99% white,safe and comfy. Likely not for long though.
Well those are all slavs, which makes them non-whites

white men (and women too) make a video game in 2024. a fricking outrage
/s
how did we ended up such timeline
did they make combat good
Good? KCD has some of the best combat a video game has ever had.
Supossedly yet you can see the jank in the trailer well see when it release
Oh wow it's been 20 fricking years since Oblivion and games are still trying achieve this.
Didn't Dragons Dogma 2 advertise itself with the same thing? And 90% of the NPCs are still pointless and feel fake.
I hope they tweak the AI this time in a way that gives them different types of skill levels with weapons cause watching every random bandit with rags fight like he was trained by the sword masters of Italy was really immersion breaking.
Are we back, bros?
Yes
Did they mention if you can do a real noncombatant/sneak run? Getting locked in a forced fight segment really spoiled it in KCD.
>KCD1 but bigger and better
Yep, it's kino
>AAA industry about to get mogged for the 3rd time in a year

KCD2 is AAA
Warhorse is not some indie darling sttudio anymore, they took Koch wiener.
When they say diverse do they mean israelites?
Very likely israelites/Germans/Poles/Hungarians/ maybe some French.
>Warhorse bamboozled the journos, tricking them with the buzzwords to get them off the hook this time where it turns out the most they got is some gypsies and israelites
Honestly game devs should've done these things, it's not like them woke people gonna come check.
Well, israelites were in Czech lands. There were some pogroms on them too. And since we are talking about Kutna Hora, which was a very rich city in the Holy Roman Empire and not some village, there should be a lot of Germans, and it would definitely attract some traders and small nobles from other parts of Europe.
Nope, Black folk most likely
Yes, israelites and Europeans, including (obviously) Czechs, Germans, Italians, etc. Some Gypsies and Brown merchants also aren't unlikely.
>>all of the NPCs are unique in KCD2, with their own daily life, their own bed etc.
Do people really care about this? I don't see the point of it, I'm not going to sit and watch Frans go about his day shoveling shit before he goes to the pub for a drink and sleeps. There's nothing wrong with doing it but I just don't get why people seemingly like it so much.
There are immersiongays now bro, gotta cater to those folks. Besides, the game pride itself on being this authentic historical RPG, they oughta do it.
>now
no one tell him about immersive sims
> >all of the NPCs are unique in KCD2, with their own daily life, their own bed etc. there are no NPCs who just spawn into the world only to walk around in circles with a bucket of water or whatever. every NPC has a fixed and unique inventory. whatever you steal from these inventories is actually gone and will not respawn in their inventory
Oblivionchads we are so back
in 2024
Does anyone actually believe that? I predict late 2025 actual release and late 2026 when the game is playable without bugs and glitches.
I dont when You put a year without month and day its sus
6 years in the making, trust the plan
Dnf was 14 years
They worked on the game for at least 5 years with a bigger budget and team than KCD1. It's basically finished now, the 6-10 months until release will be used to polish it and make sure it comes out clean.
*6-8 months
is pretty much the same as in KCD1
please say this isn't true
why the frick would they replicate those absolutely cancerous combat mechanics?
Looks like KCD Royal Edition is currently 3.99 on xbox, what are the best protips before starting that are not playing on Hardcore.
Mouse and keyboard is best because of lockpicking.
>combat is pretty much the same as in KCD1
Why? Why didn't they even try to improve it? I don't hate it as much as some people but it had issues that needed fixing.
If you don't go back to Rattay then does that mean Theresa isn't in the game?
My homie Henry not paying child support
Family tradition
that was Lady Steph and divish is taking care of the kid. Also, we see that there is some kind of timeskip and that Henry and Hans are put in a dungeon. In all likelihood Henry is just gone for several years and Theresa moves on.
we don't know that, all we know is one of the major area's is Kuttenburg and that there are two NEW major area's in the game but for all we know they may have just ported the previous map from the first game to the new one.
we are so far through the looking glass Ganker now thinks any female under 5/10 is a troony

women only have themselves to blame for this since transsexualism would not have been possible without feminism.
You are the male equivalent, the narcissists prayer is a warning not an instruction manual
worse - any female is automatically assumed to be a troony

this sounds just like the claim that cyberpunk made
It's exactly the claim cyberpunk made, but cyberpunk also claimed it would be a thousand NPCs doing that, the NPC count on KCD2 probably won't even reach half that so it's more believable.
Ok but can we talk about the naming scheme? Why on earth is it Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 instead of just Kingdom Come 2?
>Why on earth is it Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 instead of just Kingdom Come 2?
because it will deliver us from AAA trash, weeboid coom piss and chink gacha shit
I also had problems wrapping my mind around it, but I think I understand now:
>first game is called "Kingdom Come: Deliverance"
>the second game is a direct sequel to the first game
>therefore the second game is called "Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2"
I know, it's not trivial at all, took me some time until I figured it out.
It should've been named Kingdom Come Retribution or Kingdom Come Revelation or something like that, just naming it KCD2 does feel cheap where they have plenty of choices. The game will sell well anyway.
Another subtitle is best saved for a game with another protagonist
Its stays true to video game naming convention which favours title (#) maybe messaging that is distinctly a game and not a movie/moviegame. KC:D is already a mouthful and unwieldy name for a game tobequitehonest
but it makes sense, tho. The first game was intended to have 3 acts but it only has the first 2, the last act being KCD2. In a way, it shows is the same story instead of something new.
Only deepens my theory that we will get a character switch and sone poor peasant trying to survive the hussite wars. The whole "trilogy" will probably deal with the hussite wars from beginning to end
Kingdom Come Deliverance is Henry's story. Games with other titles will have other protagonists.
>combat is pretty much the same
pass then.
no blank character to build as I want no buy
I fricking despised henry in the first game, the sole reason why I stopped playing is how much I dislike him
I would prefer a silent no personality MC than this fricking imbecile
I'd much rather play as a defined character with different possible builds than some soulless husk that doesn't even get addressed by his name.
Got the first game on epic. Is the game worth it without dee eel see or do I just pirate the game?
>combat is pretty much the same
sold already
Worth playing again with the DLC and hardcore mode? All I know about hardcore is that the map doesn't show you where you are and you have to pick 2 permanent debuffs at the start.
I think all dlc for kingdom come is trash but hardcore is worth experiencing at least once.
I don't even remember the DLCs well, what was it?
>Running a village which was mainly a money sink
>Extremely short one with Hans being his wingman
>One where you play as Theresa which also added more scenes for her romance with Henry
theres also the one where you have to deal with mercs for radzig i think
The Theresa one also adds a massive quest in Sasau with one of the Skalitz villagers.
Band of Bastards is bretty good
no map is great until you're friend doesn't know where they are and expect you to do all the work (story of my fricking life)
and its a MINIMUM 2 permanent debuffs, you can pick all of them if you want (dont)
And nothing of that is a problem
>and nothing of that is a problem
say that in my situation. (omg where are we dude? me: the pub with your bros them:where??? oh yeah....and how do i get to X from here? me: *sigh*)
the map doesnt show where you are so you have to actually learn the landscape, and no compass, and no fast travel except when forced after some quests. its not an issue unless you're like my pal who can't map to save their life.
>say that in my situation

Haemophilia and Consumption are only really an issue at the start, once you get some decent armour or your vitality improves enough they're largely non issues and the dog they added with Woman's Lot helps a lot.

>>all of the NPCs are unique in KCD2, with their own daily life, their own bed etc. there are no NPCs who just spawn into the world only to walk around in circles with a bucket of water or whatever. every NPC has a fixed and unique inventory. whatever you steal from these inventories is actually gone and will not respawn in their inventory
welp it's gonna be Starfield/Dragon's Dogma 2 all over again with the meme NPC schedules ruining performance
Warhorse has quality people working on it instead of sweatshop outsourcing into asiatic and pajeet lands.
True, still baffled why exactly they needed 30m usd to produce kcd 1. How many copies they sold? 7m?
it sold over 6 million
Yeah, I guess almost correctly then. Development was 4y? They will likely release a bug fest, as their money dried up for certain by now.
>why exactly they needed 30m usd to produce kcd 1
>what is labor cost
>what is rent
What do you think gets accounted for when calculating the budget of a game?
There's much more to consider and I doubt rent is a problem when you have labor*100 for multiple years.
They likely needed time to adjust and smoothen operations. Kcd1 was in dev for ages.
>Warhorse has quality people
KCD1 is infamous for its constant stutters and massive FPS drops on towns
yeah because it was their first game with cryengine, the people working there are mostly from old czech veteran studios so they know what theyre doing but of course a work with new technology is going to be difficult first time around.
I envy your positivity anon I pray you are right
it will certainly have some issues but i doubt its gonna be nowhere near KCD1 tier, cuz you know the increased budget and staff is really a great boost for quality if you're hiring actually skilled people. ( which they do )
I want to buy the Royal Edition of the first game on the Windows Store, but it never goes on sale. Why is that?
40 dollars is already too good of a deal anon, any less would be a sin
Just buy it on steam, frick bill gates
But my 20 year old Xbox gamertag and achievement history...
This game always felt weird since it's effectively historical fanfic.
I want to be a catholic German Knight, who stays loyal to the Reich and not a disgusting hussite czech rebel. Warhorse is destroying their own game by making it some cringy ahistorical czech nationalist rebel story. The eternal seething of the pleb against his better.
You take being bohemian or you can go home
you will kill the hekkin evil German papists and you WILL like it
seethe more kraut
you WILL get embarrassed infront of the whole Europe and you WILL like it
cry about it homosexual, germaBlack folk are the spawn of cain and everybody knows it
You mean the guys whose crusades got beat 5 TIMES, ONCE BY JUST SINGING?
The eternal German copium is unbelievable.
Please understand, the 6th time will surely work
The 6th time they didnt get beaten by Germans.
Also Žižka never lost a battle.
>I want to be a catholic German Knight, who stays loyal to the Reich and not a disgusting hussite czech rebel. Warhorse is destroying their own game by making it some cringy ahistorical czech nationalist rebel story. The eternal seething of the pleb against his better.
so thats why its banned in germany....
i actually know why but shh
Kcd isnt banned here anon...
i meant that steam shit with KCD2
Enlighten me anon, steam page looks normal for me. I got the first game on gog and will probably do so with the second game but still
You were saying, homosexual?
propably got fixed but there was a small uproar about it yesterday.
>but there was a small uproar about it yesterday.
Where? On the 4chinz?
How absolutely fricking moronic does one have to be to think it wasn't some frickup where someone didn't push a button in time?
God gamers are truly the most moronic subhumans in existence.
>get utterly btfo by a bunch of peasants with wagons and crossbows

Lmao, even

It's in the name gay. They're parasites that ruin everything.

Who?
Heres a hot tip: you don't need to respond to every bottom of the barrel bait post that gets repeated in every thread.
I dont?
>all of the NPCs are unique in KCD2, with their own daily life, their own bed etc.
Oh boy, another CPU-bound nightmare that runs at 15FPS on top tier hardware.
kcd1 had a good balance
>gameawards reposted the trailer on their channel
kek will they finally be forced to acknowledge KCD2 into GOTY participants after the fiasco in 2018?
It looks like GOTY material, you never know when it another game of the caliber of Witcher 3 or Baldurs gate 3 might come out, let's hope it's KCD2
KCD2 already loses points by not being woke sausage-fest like BG3
Witcher 3 also had no Black folk, until the DLC and was highly praised, besides it seems to me that journos don't really about the no Black folk angle anymore, the trailer is being posted on every major gaming outlet and they're already making videos dissecting the trailer for secrets
yeah but TW3 was mainly sold on a big ass marketing campaign since 90% of people who consider the game and its DLCs a masterpiece never actually played the older Witcher games lol ( which were better imo )
I don't know, kcd2 seems high quality enough to break the barrier of journos seething over "muh diversity" that's how i see it
yeah lets hope it will be that way
I played 1, then 2, then 3, then the DLCs and Blood and Wine was excellent. 2 is the worst of them despite having Vernon BROche.
>2 is the worst of them
lol lmao
of course the game that has an actual consequences and not ubislop tier shit like TW3 is le worst
reddit opinion
screenshots of a minor spat on twitter used to fuel low IQ ragebait here isn't a fiasco
imo, by far the most compelling thing about kcd was the sense of scale, they basically took a very small area, but didn't miniaturize skalice or rattay all that much. as a european, walking up to those churches, seeing those fields, it was resonant and immersive in a a completely unique way.
but kuttenberg has a population 20 times skalitz, and probably about proportionally the same ratio in the middle ages. so will they sacrifice that sense of real scale just to get a city in the game, or will the city be ridiculously big by rpg standards?
While this isn't conventionally approved by most gaymers, I'd much rather they filled with empty space than compress the city. honestly I wish a big rpg had the balls to take place in only one city and its immediate outskirts, but make it feel properly sized(cp2077 doesn't count, night city would be way bigger irl, tokyo for example is enormous)
100% down sized and honestly for the better
>the best thing about the game is getting taken away, and that's a good thing!
I'll simply choose to believe they're doing it to scale and that's what's taken them this long, and honestly for the better
>I refuse to acknowledge reason
Thats the recipe of disappointment
In an interview with a German YouTuber their marketing head said that Kuttenberg is the largest city in any medieval RPG, at least three times bigger than Rattay with unique NPCs with daily activities and detailed underground tunnels.
cool, that's about the actual size of kuttenberg, although I think it's a lot denser than rattay.
Another anon claimed that they said in a video that this is gonna be the biggest city in an rpg yet - so probably bigger then Novigrad in W3
I think they said in a medieval video game, cp2077 would be much bigger, you navigate that shit with cars, and it's much bigger than real world kuttenberg
Novigrad looked OK, but was shit, really. Too little to do. Night city is huge, but empty.
Curious if they can make it bigger than night city.
Novigrad is sadly quite small and empty as shit of any content, hours of waiting for the teased siege and it happens in a fricking Fallout tier slideshow lmao, TW3 was such a scam can't believe its considered one of the best games ever made.
I think it was Dragon age origins or maybe baldurs gate but I like the idea of the "big city" being at the edge of the world map and you basically only see the entrance and first district connected to the world, while a handful of important districts are just separate maps
i was looking forward to the game but now im worried because he mentions ethnicities and other shit, why the frick does he care, just tell me whats going on with henry i dont give a frick if the new city has diversity
ethnicities don't mean Black folk anon
pole is one
czech is one
german is one
hungarian is one
turk is one
mongol is one
the diversity is Czechs, Germans, Hungarians, Poles and whatever else not basketball americans
>indie shill
>Ganker: buy an ad
>AAA shill
>Ganker: ahhh 🙂
talk about no games EVER
this game is being shilled EVERYWHERE and it hasnt even come out
one of the biggest rpgs in the last decade gets a sequel in a year of relatively slow news, and people are still talking about it almost 20 hours after it was officially announced?? on a board about video games?? This must be astroturfing
>This must be astroturfing
this but unironically. it takes zero effort for devs to shill their own crap here and it works, you gays will buy.
yes, I've been waiting for this game for years, I'll probably buy it, depending on finances
now watch as we have 3+ daily kcd2 threads for the next 6 months or however long it takes to release, then never hear about it ever again
Ok schizo, whatever you say
>depending on finances
With posts like these I always wonder how you people live that you can't afford to spend 60 bucks on something you like.
And if you can't dish out 60 bucks AT THIS INSTANT you still have like half a year to save up 60 bucks. That's like 3 bucks per week.
And even if you don't start saving now, you can still start saving later and won't even have to pay 60 anymore when it goes on sale.
The game had 30k people watching the stream, take your meds schizo, people have been waiting for this game for years now, it's not some small roguelike sidescroller indie game
This one of the few games that even Ganker has a soft spot for, are you legit mentally challenged?
Vavra and his second guy just basically confirmed for Czech Forbes that there will be no blacks; they just want to avoid controversy. Haha
Source?
give sources man.
>dumb mutt doesn't understand what "nationalities" and "ethnicities" are
Read the thread homosexual
>Different ethnicities means there's Blacks, now please be demoralized and hate Warhorse
The rope's ready troon.
There's more then one type of ethnicity American, it's not just Black folk.
Máte s tím koneckonců vlastní zkušenost. První díl Kingdom Come schytal kritiku za to, že v něm nejsou žádní černoši. Co ve dvojce?
O tom zatím nemůžeme mluvit. (Podle rozhovoru, který dal serveru IGN mluvčí Warhorse studio, mají být ve druhém díle různé etnicity díky invazním vojskům cizího krále na českém území.)
Translated, there will be blacks they just dont want controversy, YET.
Do we get to fight papists yet?
Did anyone else notice Talmberg being besieged again in the trailer? Will the game partly take place in the first map?
Wasnt talmberg but probably Trosky castle
Aah you’re probably right, that’s why Divish wasn’t shown.
>KCD2 will release by the end of this year
I was about to say goty confirmed but then remembered how historically accurate it tries to be and realized it doesn't have a chance.
i hope we get to kill more germans
Cumans? More like subcuman!
Are they moving to a new iteration of Cryengine? will it have ray tracing? will you be able to remove all your clothes? are there Black folk?
Will you finally have a nice day falseflagging troony?
Yes, probably, probably like the first game, there will be fr*nch people (with a ton other eurogays)
ZERO nogs
propably updated version of CryEngine
unknown if RT will be implemented
not sure if you're gonna be able to remove ALL of your clothes but they did say you can walk around ''naked'' and NPCs will respond and you can reply back to them saying shit like ''uh sorry'' or ''frick off''
>ZERO nogs
Excellent, good to see them sticking to their guns.
>propably updated version of CryEngine
Probably or any details released, I'm just interested in what tech the game will be moving for the sequel, I seriously hope they didn't move to Lumberyard, Crytek have a big engine update planned.
>unknown if RT will be implemented
Oh well.
>not sure if you're gonna be able to remove ALL of your clothes but they did say you can walk around ''naked'' and NPCs will respond and you can reply back to them saying shit like ''uh sorry'' or ''frick off''
I want to run around with my nads out, is that a hard ask? they always have fused underwear as nake in games and it disgusts me.
I'd be considered woke by the standards of Ganker and I was still embarrassed by the culture war controversy surrounding the first game. I can't stand the weirdos who refuse to understand that contact between distant cultures was sporadic and small for most of human history, so an African in rural Bohemia makes as much sense as putting a Chinese sailor in a story about precolumbian Mexico.
I mean I'm pretty 'woke', most people understand it, it's just a matter of being okay with historical inaccuracies for the sake of storytelling. I personally wouldn't go 'how dare you include a brown in your historical game', there could be justifications - there was the depictions of that one saint as black for a long time, arthurian myth featured a dark skinned knight who was the descendent of a 'moorish princess' and was described as having coal black skin and was depicted as a heroic noble figure, and those stories are like 800 years old. But I also don't have a problem with vavra's approach. I mean Pentiment is a recent medieval game headed by actual uber woke communist Josh Sawyer and the only brown people are a roma guy and a person from the ethiopian orthodox church who's visiting the church the game is set in. History is full of travelers and they can make an interesting story, but a simple 'there are poc in every town in this medieval setting' does nothing for me. I can't understand complaining about it for fantasy settings though
My issue is also that the notion of diversity some people push is so blatantly centered on modern-day American society. Medieval society was diverse because there was no notion of the modern day nation state, so you would often have regions like Switzerland or Transylvania that were a cultural and linguistic melting pot, yet would get dismissed as "all white people" through a modern western lens.
I wouldn't lose my shit if a game trying for medieval historical accuracy would have Turks or a rare Ethiopian on a pilgrimage, but I'm autistic about history and I appreciate accurate depictions of the middle ages, a period of history that's so often misrepresented in popular media.
If someone made a historical RPG about Tenochtitlan or the Mali Empire I would also like the depictions to be relatively accurate, I think we can learn more from the past by looking at what it actually was like, rather than trying to project all of our modern morality back into it.
>historical RPG about Tenochtitlan
>Good ending where you get sacrificed because Mesoamerican warriors unironically considered this the most honorable way to die.
>Last thing you see before credits roll is the priest holding your still-beating heart.
Kino
apocalypto was kino there i said it
Yeah I get that. I would love more historical stuff that centres on places outside of europe as well, I remember hearing about a game about playing a native american in the 1600s and I got excited but then I found out it was just survival game slop and I got sad.
A swiss village from one valley over even in the modern day exhibits more cultural, social and linguistic difference than a town in essex UK vs a town in rural tennessee, and thats just the german speaking parts considered
frick yes im too excited to watch the full trailer
is henry coming back
to see us?
Yes
ludo is on the way
where's theresa? is she safe? is she alright?
>the game that launched in a pisspoor state barely working with missing features still not added to the game, dogshit performance and so many bugs it could put Bethesda to shame is again making a game thats overly ambitious and promises the moon
surely nothing will go wrong
Back in my day we accepted that Eastern European games would always be buggy messes with ambitions far surpassing their budgets. We didn't like the bugs but we were willing to accept their existence so long as the devs kept being passionate. Ganker is a pro-Eurojank board.
Ye the problem is EuroJank works in small scale only
Thats why Gothic 1 and 2 is better than 3 and why Witcher 2 is better than 3 or 1
Only time that Western scale mixed well with eastern devs was Witcher 3 and that games is only good for normie standards
>Witcher 2 is better than 3 or 1
No it fricking isn't. Witcher 2 is good but the weakest of the 3.
Its my favourite tbqh
Tight and fun
it is better
>w1
>not the sovl of series with eurojank and atmosphere
worked on my machine :^)
>american culture war
its all so tiresome
america becoming superpower was a disaster for mankind
Frick how I wish I could discuss this game without it always being this shit.
Okay I saw the trailer.
I wanna ask tho... Did they really spend 6 years...? I remember how they were bought by some investment group, and there was no clear tell if they're making KCD 2 until now out of nowhere they show a well worked on game? Even though they look like assets from KCD1, idk. It feels too good to be true.
We'll see, they've stated that the game will be much larger and they've also spent a large amount of time modifying cry engine in order for performance to not shit itself in the much larger cities
They are honestly masochists for sticking wtih cryengine. I heard its such a cumbersome engine for anything but FPS. I hope now that they have more experience it will be a smooth launchh.
I mean these kinds of games took massive undertaking, from open-world to the AI stuff even when you have solid foundation from the first game already, I can understand the long interval.
you must realize the development slowed down during the chink flu time
After the first game released they spent about a year on the DLC and around 2019 or 2020 they began working on the sequel.
does this mean it's gonna have the shitty camera lock during combat again?
Is the 1st game good?
No its absolute trash thats why everybody is looking forward to it anon
Alright I'm going to buy the Royal Edition of the first game on PS5 for 4 Euros as it's on sale. What am I in for? Specifically on console? And specifically how it feels on PS5 and not PS4. Yes, I know there's no PS5 version, but it should still play better on PS5.
Also worth mentioning that the game's DLC pack costs 5 Euros, but if you buy the edition with the game + DLC it's 4 Euros. What the frick?
>What am I in for?
eurojank kino
>1M views
When the frick did this game get so popular? The frick did I miss?
It's always popular bro. The first game sold like 6 million copies last I checked and that's huge for a Eurojank.
1st game sold like 5+ million copies
i need more face covering helmets
literal bread sandwich protag design. looks like an inexplicably modern dude plopped in a medieval setting.
yeah kind of pavel slavic country bumpkin design of the original henry was perfect
Guess whose gonna visit the bathhouse immediatley
they tried to age him but yeah he seems kinda weird, and hans didn't get a face swap
no idea what the problem is, it just looks like henry has seen some shit now which having played on hardcore yeah he did.
>being chased through dark woods by pointy hat rapist gnomes
he looks like a frumpy mid 30's coworker in a corporate environment
It's the hairstyle, men used to rock long shoulder hair back then
he also looks too soft and clean shaven. people spent much more time under the sun back then, and were darker and more leathery. shaving was also not easily accessible. his hairstyle is also too tidy. lastly, he's too tall and has too much fat on his face. there wasn't much nutrition to go around back then, and the average height for men was 5 inches.
is this just european rdr2 without the cuck protagonist?
it has a homosexual protagonist instead
He had more sex woth women then you anon
it's over bro's, cherish the original. 2 is going to be a woke diversity shitfest created by trans furry developers and the original lead isn't there anymore for the game. It's a hijacked game.
>it's over bro's, cherish the original. 2 is going to be a woke diversity shitfest created by trans furry developers and the original lead isn't there anymore for the game. It's a hijacked game.
Nice LARP, troony. By the way, the noose is empty.
