    Well... it is clunky. Honestly only good thing about it is the immersion, is one of the very few games that actually make sense as first person game.

    It's a pretty good peaseant simulator, having to learn to ride horses, work to get a horse to begin with, learn to read, etc. is pretty sweet. Also graphics are good and the realism in it makes it even better, actually getting to explore a castle in which the devs actually educated themselves on how castles work and didnt' just watch a marvel movie and said "how many penis shaped towers do we need?".

    Shame only reason the game is famous is journos had a meltdown about the game having no blacks.

      Devs should've looked up how making a non-convoluted lock picking minigame works.

        Lockpicking isn’t even difficult. Once you train up to level 5 you can get a decent perk to stop lock picks from breaking so easily, and just a few levels past that makes the lockpicking only take half the time. Even breaking lockpicks adds experience so it takes no time at all to get better at it. I barely have to do anything now in the game to open even a very hard lock. It just takes some patience

    I've been playing it. Unarmed combat is aids. Melee combat is ok. Ranged combat is the worst ranged gameplay in the history of gaming. Everything else is pretty much 10/10, so far at least.

    i had a great time with the game but very early on i realized spamming master strike to the head with a mace is the only thing you have to do the entire time. you could 1v100 enemies that have the best armor and it wouldnt matter if you just master strike and clinch spam. it's probably the greatest failing of the game besides needing an item to save.

    Combat is clunky, and it takes ages to get to the best part of the game but otherwise a pretty cool. The scenary is gorgeous and it reminds me of oblivion. The one feature I really like is the codex, a compendium of medieval facts such as the food peasants ate, customs etc. Henry is a boring protagonist, and it would be better if you play as the dad instead.

    I have 100 hours in it so far and it's good but yeah, the combat is fricking ass for most of it ESPECIALLY against more than 1 enemy. It goes from being shit because nothing works to being too easy because you will just masterstrike and kill most enemies barely having to try. Itt's also very buggy. Also people use "muh realism" as cope to defend way too much annoying shit in this game. Like I fricking dare you to justify how tedious and slow alchemy is.

      To be fair I beat the whole game up until the second to last "boss" without learning masterstrikes on the hardest difficulty using a shield. The only reason I learned masterstrikes were a thing was because the "boss" kept countering me and I couldn't beat him without cheese. Actually having to constantly switch the attack position of your weapon to catch the AI off guard was pretty okay sword combat

    It's a very decent immersive no-fantasy medieval RPG.
    The protagonist is likable, the story is whatever, the combat is brutal to start out if you're not gaming it as it should, your character doesn't start as a trained soldier.
    It has fun activities like tournaments or hunting that let you experience the world in medieval central Europe.

    I like the move where you go for the enemy's wrist and disarm them. I feel like some elite french fencing duelist. By the time you're leveled up enough to land it consistently though, enemies die way too quickly and easily.

    Not worth it
    Combat is broken to the point where people will collectively agree or autists will shill it into the ground as the best combat system ever.
    It's inherently broken and about halfway through the game you have untrained bandits mogging you with master strikes and parrying everything you do. You either figure out how to cheese all the enemies(I did it with the headcracker perk) or you're a bowgay.
    The story and immersion is really nice though
    I think a sequel where the devs unfrick combat would be pretty good

      You didn't do the training with Bernard if you were getting mogged by bandits. The combat is literally only hard in the early game before you train up. It's biggest flaw is that by the time you can do cool moves you destroy enemies way too quickly, cheese or no cheese.

                A lot of combat in the game is based on skill checks, so a low combat henry will have a very hard time against high level enemies. Unless you just cheese it.

                Right, which is why I mentioned you have to train. I stand by everything I said. The only issue with this games combat is unironically that its too easy and you have no room to do cool shit because even late game geared up enemies die incredibly fast. The opposite of being hard.

                also by mid game there's basically nothing stopping you from making as many save potions as you could possibly need (or you've made so much cash from the archery tournaments it's a triviality to spend the 100g per potion)

    im 70 percent or so through it, i think.

    i like it overall, a solid 7/10 game worth the sale price of 10 dollars i paid for it. i am playing on hardcore mode, and i like it overall. i enjoy the having to use an item to quick save idea, because it makes you actually face consequences sometimes, like if you lose in an ambush, and forces you to use quick saves strategically.

    i only have two complaints.

    1; combos. they are confusing and difficult to consistently land just on their own, but against any non-moronic enemy you get perfect blocked 80% of the time, cancelling the combo. you can try to perfect block them, or clinch them first but even this doesn't work all the time, and you can get severely punished for it. as a result combat against high enemies, like in the tournaments, you are often better off simply master strike spamming, which is repetitive.

    2. stat caps at 20. i have no idea why they did this. it makes any perk that is +1 to your stats effectively useless late game, and there are a shit ton of these, like half the perks are stat perks. terrible decision.

    • 5 months ago

      I'd rate it 9/10 but I agree with both those complaints. Except I'm fine with the combos since I found them annoying to memorise, so making them a situational thing you'll use one or two of rather than the core of the combat system worked out well for me.

      The one that knocks your enemy down with a pommel strike is extremely powerful if you can unlock from them and get behind them.

    It's absolutely fricking amazing, a really fun ride.

    Make sure you don't overlook alchemy though, it's the great equaliser when you're starting out. Eg. You can barely aim a bow properly until you've got 5 skill in it, but the potion gives a temporary 5 skill, so now you can aim properly, and go hunt some deer or pigs, which will increase your skill till you don't need the potion anymore. It's great.

    I never used the save patch either, you can very easily make hundreds of Saviour Schnapps, or use the Bath Maids for a save, zero problems. Plus it makes the games systems actually matter since you don't want to carry too many Saviour Schnapps with you, since they have weight, and so you actually consider when and how you'll save.

        I made my fortune powching. Just went out into the woods, and only came back when my horse and me were so overloaded we couldn't carry anymore. Sold everything to all the vendors, then repeated. Soon the vendors were all mega rich, and I had more groshens than I knew what to do with. And more importantly, I had my archery at a high enough level to be worth using.

        Where it gets really funny though is when you what to level up a new weapon type, and you realise that unarmoured Henry with some athletic skill as enough speed to run down a deer, rabbit or boar. So you just dash through the woods like a madman, stabbing animals to raise your sword skill.
