    Games is good, but has many bugs. Plus, battling against 2+ enemies is insane. Plot is meh, yet has interesting points. Nevertheless, game is interesting and has a soul, so I recommend it

    Then the random guard attacked me for whatever reason (he first followed me for a while and then started to punch me). After I died, I found out that about an hour of my progress is gone, as the game doesn't save even on quests completion. Which is 'fun' and 'realistic' I suppose. I have like 2 hours after my job to play games. Do you actually think that it's a good idea to simply waste my time like that?! Ok, you're going for the realism. Then at least have consistent rules! Why some quests save your game and some don't? Why should I constantly check if my game was saved or not?!

    Obviously, if you're fine with losing hours of progress here and there, buggy gameplay and overall lack of polish it's still might an interesting game for you.    … Expand

    First of all, I'm writing this review while I'm still in my memory right after finishing the game, if you don't want to read the whole thing, let me summarize directly: IF YOU LOVE OPEN WORLD RPG GAMES, I recommend you to buy one and try it while the price is reasonable.

    Let's move on to the long part... First of all, if you remember correctly, the game takes place in 1402 in a small    First of all, I'm writing this review while I'm still in my memory right after finishing the game, if you don't want to read the whole thing, let me summarize directly: IF YOU LOVE OPEN WORLD RPG GAMES, I recommend you to buy one and try it while the price is reasonable.

    Let's move on to the long part...
    First of all, if you remember correctly, the game takes place in 1402 in a small medieval town called Skalitz. We are in this town as the only son of a blacksmith and do a few errands to begin with. During this 1-2 hour process, we complete the process by either doing legwork or escaping without taking much action. Then the village is raided and the story continues.
    + First of all, it took me 47 hours to finish the game as someone who only went through the main story, even if you think I'm a very clumsy or occasionally doing side quests, it doesn't have a structure that can be finished in 7-8 hours. For this reason, it will keep you busy for a long time.
    + The price is reasonable for a game that is considered partly new with DLC packs.
    + You can kill, knock out and rob everyone except the main characters in the game, I must say that I earn a lot of money by doing this; but other than that, NPC interactions are generally primitive. The general structure of the game seems to have already been released in 2010, because NPC intelligence and technologies at some points are very old.
    + THE GAME IS NOT OPTIMIZED. As someone who finished RDR2 on high settings, I was able to finish this game with normal settings, and still, the skin load distance and NPC count etc. There were too many shortcomings.
    + It turns into a walking simulation too much at some points, even if it has a fast travel feature, it is impossible to use it especially at the beginning of the game. Because you can only fast travel to the places you have discovered, you are also very likely to be ambushed because you are traveling like a villager on a horse and there are too many invaders in the area you are in.
    Bandits don't take money from you like in Bannerlord, you die directly. Also, this has to do with the combat system, but I'll come to that later.
    + Stealth mechanics are usable and useful, but very annoying at some points; If the man in front of us cannot see us, in some cases, someone with his back may notice us and swoop down on us.
    + COMBAT SYSTEM! Even though the game's combat system is inspired by M&B, it is almost unique, it has a system that will lock you on the screen even in 1V1 battles.
    If I have to summarize briefly, you can attack from six different angles, including 5 CUT, 1 STUD. When your enemies attack in the same way, you can block the attack at the appropriate angle, as in M&B, with appropriate timing. If you block in a special way just in time, you don't lose stamina by counterattacking, otherwise you have a chance to get injured and lose energy/stamina.
    Also, there is only one lock on enemy in battles, so you can't cut someone with a two-handed sword by spinning in the air like in M&B. You have to use every movement carefully and control your energy. The use of spring is very difficult and in my opinion, extremely troublesome. I used it once in a while while I was on a horse to shoot the bandits running after me. Other than that, the mechanics of many melee weapons are the same anyway. So what are the pros and cons of this?
    First of all, as I said, 1V1 battles are fun, but because you are locked into a single enemy, battles with many NPCs can be extremely painful. Although I have finished the game and have almost reached the "MASTER" level in sword wielding, I do not fight TRIPLE bandit gangs one on one. While locking on one, the others shoot from the side. This can cause a lot of trouble, especially in ambushes and collective wars.
    Also NPCs are fighting really well, until the last 10 hours it was a very problematic activity to shoot 1V1 even with a city guard. If you are going to fight, I suggest you to try war weapons other than swords, especially for enemies with chains and iron plates. Even though I hit an armored enemy ten times with a good sword in my hand, his health is not reduced by half, and when he hits me with the mace three times, my character's shaft slips. Pay attention to this.

    + THE GAME ENGINE IS PROBLEM AND THE INFRASTRUCTURE IS OLD. Everything in the game, from NPC animations to combat and artificial intelligence, gives a 2010 vibe. Except for the CINEMATICS (which are really good). I can swear that there are 5-6 animations in the dialogues with NPCs. In addition, the number of NPCs is low in many areas and their artificial intelligence is problematic. Besides, as I said, optimization is very troublesome.

    + I have to say that the world is wide, I give your rights in this regard. Also, it's pretty good that every NPC doesn't spawn randomly and then disappear in a random place, everyone has a job and a house, and when you kill someone, their house is empty.    … Expand

    I like that you aren't some overpowered special chosen one and start out just as a normal peasant.

    Combat is sort of ok once you train and get used to it but it still feels clunky even when you get used to it. The auto lock on system is annoying and terrible if facing many enemies and I only found it decent when using potions when fighting multiple enemies.
    The game defines itself as being realistic,
    however being realistic shouldn't mean that it lacks quality of life. And when games lean towards realistic often it makes it less fun and more tedious and frustrating.
    Such as can't pause during cutscenes which is annoying when it happens when the phone rings or my cat is demanding attention.
    Even worse is the very limited save system. Especially as the game is poorly optimised and plagued with occasional crashing and freezing which is frustrating because of the limited save system.

    This game is not polished enough and can often be buggy and glitchy and definitely can tell it's a indie game.
    I've had bugs with some quests such as
    I've had a bug when doing the bathhouse quest for Sir Hans after getting the wine and returning he was no longer at the bath house and instead was sleeping in his bed. I had to reload a previous save and do the quest again and this time it was ok.

    This is a game that wont appeal to everyone. This is a game I like but not love as there are quite a few things I am not pleased with. Such as pacing of the game feels drawn out and everything take ages to do, you have to spend so much time practicing combat just to get better stats to be able to fight anyone adequately.
    I recommend this game as I did enjoy playing it despite the bugs. I liked playing through most of the DLC's, only one I didn't like was a Woman's Lot as playing as Theresa was so tedious and is only worth it for the companion Mutt.
    Overall it is a very unique game and worth playing if you can put up with the combat.

    I expect a lot better for a game regardless of if it's indie or AAA.    … Expand

    Kingdom Come se centra en la vida de Herny, el hijo de un herrero, y aunque no podemos personalizar al protagonista su historia es bastante buena, Herny es un buen personaje y la sensación de comenzar como un don nadie y progresar en una sociedad feudal está muy lograda.

    El juego es difícil y da una libertad excelente al jugador para utilizar todo lo que se le ocurra y esté a su alcance para progresar, sin embargo, debido al sistema de guardados limitados (se guarda bebiendo cierta poción especial, durmiendo en camas propias o en ciertos lugares de la trama.) no se pueden emplear tácticas como cargar la partida hasta que consigues el éxito deseado. Esto puede dar un punto de realismo y dificultad debido a las consecuencias pero para mí que tengo un poco de síndrome de Diógenes cuando juego RPG, esta mecánica me frustró a las pocas horas de estar jugando y descargué un MOD que añade la opción de guardar la partida cuando te apetezca. Muchos puedes considerar esto "hacer trampas" pero para mí mejoró muchísimo la experiencia de juego y me permitió continuar jugando como yo quería jugar, completando todo lo que el juego me ofrecía, desde robar una barra de pan hasta dejar inconsciente a un guardia en un callejón y robarle su equipo.

    El sistema de subida de nivel se basa en la práctica, cuanto más usas algo, mejor te desenvuelves en ello y para ayudarte tienes libros y maestros. Un detalle del juego soberbio es que al principio no sabes leer y debes acudir a un escriba para que te enseñe primero a leer y luego a hacerlo en latín. Además de ayudarnos a poder leer libros de habilidades, saber leer o hablar latín tiene impacto en ciertas misiones.

    Desde robar bolsillos y abrir cerraduras hasta afilar tu espada, el juego ofrece una amplia variedad de mini juegos que hacen que estas tareas sean divertidas y amenas, otro punto a su favor. Además incluye un pequeño componente de supervivencia relacionado con comer, dormir y curarse heridas graves que lejos de ser una mecánica molesta añaden profundidad al juego y a la gestión del tiempo y el inventario.

    Visualmente es muy bonito aunque al ser un mapa tan grande y detallado no pueda ofrecer un realismo fotográfico.

    El mundo feudal está muy bien recreado y hacerse el "gallito" durante los diálogos como acostumbramos a hacer en este tipo de juegos puede ser la peor opción si tratamos con, por ejemplo, la nobleza o la Iglesia.

    Las misiones no son repetitivas ni abrumadoras y las tareas y misiones secundarias se dejan disfrutar al ritmo que cada jugador desee. Además, podemos tener éxito o fracasar en una misión de diversas maneras y, aunque fallemos una misión, en la mayoría de casos eso simplemente afectará a nuestra historia porque deberemos hallar otra manera de conseguir lo que deseamos pero no fallaremos en la partida teniendo que repetir una y otra vez hasta tener éxito.

    ¿Estamos entonces ante el perfecto RPG? No, por desgracia no. El combate en este juego (unido al sistema de guardado si no se utilizan mods) arruinarán la experiencia de juego del 90% de jugadores. Es normal que el protagonista no tenga ni idea de pelear al inicio del juego y cualquier personaje te pueda dar una paliza, lo que no es normal es que los enemigos no sigan las mismas reglas de juego que el protagonista. Mientras tu te ves negro para encadenar un combo, defenderte y administrar tu energía verás como los enemigos se defienden automáticamente de todos tus golpes, te lanzan combos de 4 y 5 golpes, realizan ataques y contras basados en animaciones durante las cuales observas impotente como tu Henry en vapuleado y parece que su energía en sencillamente infinita pues nunca les observas un patrón de actuación en el que parezca que están cansados o recuperándose, Esto no hace del combate desafiante y justo; sino aburrido, molesto e injusto. Si en lugar de espadas, prefieres utilizar un arco, suerte con ello, porque yo no era capaz de tener más de un 15% de precisión incluso con la habilidad de arquería alta.

    En resumen, uno de los mejores juegos de rol de todos los tiempos, con mecánicas y universo innovador debido al realismo que tratan de dar a la aventura pero que quedan arruinados por una mecánica de combate frustrante e injusta. No voy a entrar en la discusión de si el juego en blanco, hetero y machista pero debo añadir que hay un DLC donde jugamos algunas horas como Theresa, un personaje femenino bastante chulo y cuya historia es casi mejor que la de Henry.    … Expand

Every quest has a very, and I mean very, specific path or area you can roam in. The bush that is a meter away might seem like a good route to the goal, but..."you were killed by a stray arrow" again! Then again. And again. And again. So you realise the path is quite limited and try to stay within the designers boundaries. That might work. Oh....you were killed by a stray arrow. Again. Overall, I quite like the game. It's very realistic in some ways. Some say it is unforgiving. I'd agree. You can however learn most of what you need to know to pass each scenario after a few tries. Then you get killed by a stray arrow again, which actually means you went outside of the boundaries of that scenario by a few millimetres. Mostly a very good game with a lot of potential, but even with the ABC markers, it's not always clear what you should actually do or what the best way there is. Value for money, as you will have to spend hours doing almost the same thing again and again for one quest till you hit a save point. A lot of trial and error is involved. You will need a good game guide. Even then, it is a challenge almost every step of the way. I like it just a bit more than I hate it, and I have played for over 70hrs.… Expand

    An amazing modern RPG that if slightly more polished, would give the Witcher 3 a run for its money. There's plenty to explore and see, many interesting side quests to engage with and a wonderful story to experience. The combat has a steep learning curve and the performance can be questionable at times but if you can get through those two issues you're in for a treat!

But decisions rarely have influence to the play out of mission. It just give you a fake impression that you could do something different way. Bugs destroying immersion are preety common.… Expand

    Nice RPG, with a pretty interesting setting. I didn't like to fighting that much and there are a bit of bugs here and there, but overall quite fun.

    I was seriously looking forward to playing this. But when I played it upon launch it wasn't all that great. The best things about this game are the medieval setting, the graphics and the realism. However that realism has its issues. The combat is decent and it works well, however the biggest issue is the difficulty. If you get hit once or twice the punishment is way to harsh.

If you get hit you then have to spend large amounts of time healing and gaining health back and it becomes a chore. later in the game it was a little bit less fustratating when I got better gear but it doesn't make up for the frustration I had early on in the game.
    The hunger system is also annoying. You literally can't go 10 minutes without your character getting hungry.
    The bugs where also far too frequent and game breaking. I rage quit this game 3 times because of it. I'm not sure about nowadays with all the patches but back all those years ago it was buggy as hell and in a really bad state.    … Expand

    DISCLAIMER: I played this on PS4
    Pros:
    —The game is (mostly) historically accurate, at least where it matters. The average gamer who probably doesn't know **** about history would have no problems being immersed in this world. —One-on-one combat is great and is, at the very least, logical if not fully realistic. —There are great RPG elements and it's all (to a large extent)    DISCLAIMER: I played this on PS4
    Pros:
    —The game is (mostly) historically accurate, at least where it matters. The average gamer who probably doesn't know **** about history would have no problems being immersed in this world.

    —One-on-one combat is great and is, at the very least, logical if not fully realistic.

    —There are great RPG elements and it's all (to a large extent) realistic and logical. For example, Walking person whilst you're decked out in full plate armor will make you seem more threatening to them which opens up dialogue options.

    —Graphics are great. The lighting and color palette in particular is absolutely amazing and beautiful. In no other RPG game of this kind are you gonna be more tempted to just wander in the woods aimlessly and taking in the sites.

    —The story is extremely interesting, cohesive and immersive up to about half-way through. The opening in particular (although very cliché) does it's job to immerse you in the world and have you connect with the protagonist.

    Cons:
    — 2 on 1, 3 on 1 , etc, Combat is extremely clunky, Borderline broken. The game has an extremely hard time registering hits and often times your character will lock-up mid-attack or your strikes will go through your opponent. This only applies to fights against more than one opponents but you will find yourself in A LOT of these situations as you'll get ambushed by groups of people on the road whilst travelling. And there are no human followers you can hire to help you out.

    Also, Arrows do very little damage and the archery in general is extremely clunky and hard to pull off, Even if you've mastered the bow. You're never going to use it outside of hunting, unless you're a masochist.

    —The bugs and glitches. I can understand them being a small studio and having a relatively small budget but the amount of **gamebreaking** glitches in this game is completely unacceptable. There are no excuses. When you release a product people have to pay for, You are obligated to make it functioning. This game is anything but that. At least other broken pieces of **** like Skyrim and Fallout allowed you to use community patches to fix the game.

    —There are a lot of historical inaccuracies. This is not a major issue for the average gamer but for a game that claims to be historically accurate, it absolutely is. A lot of **** like clothing, armor, city grounds and, the biggest offense of all, crossbows. There are 0 crossbows in this game when medieval Czechia was a literal crossbow country. For more information, check out Shadiversity, Metatron or Skallagrim's thoughts on the game on Youtube.

    —The story is just bad and extremely poorly executed. It starts off great but it's destroyed by pacing problems. Just as the game starts to pick up, it immediately deflates and goes back to having you running around Bohemia and hearing people bloviate. On top of that, the story goes to complete **** about half-way through with a Lord leaving his castle COMPLETELY unprotected and allowing fully armed vagabond enter scot-free. There is also 0 resolution to the crimes done to the main character Henry, It all just amounts to you finding out that some nobleman is your father.

    Retarded **** like this dropkicks you out of the immersion and completely breaks any semblance of story. And the ending is so incredibly cheap and rushed. Nothing was resolved, everything is still yet to be discovered in the inevitable KCD 2 which will probably come in 5-6 years.

    —The RPG mechanics are incredibly inconsistent or outright broken at times. The game has a reputation system, If you do good deeds you gain reputation and vice versa. The problem is that the characters you murder, they will respawn (all non-essential characters at least) and they will fully remember what you did. This makes crime physically impossible as you will have respawned guards that you killed ambush you out of absolutely nowhere when you meet them again.

    The dialogue system is also completely broken. Even if you have 10-20 higher stat-points than them, they will still beat you in the dialogue for whatever reason.

    In conclusion, The game is a decent start for this franchise with inevitably a lot of problems for an inexperienced indie studio. I don't know what they are doing but they should come back and fix all of the issues in this game before setting out to do KCD 2 or something else because with a bit more polish, this game can be an easy 7 or 8/10, at least for me.    … Expand

    The story is OK, but I don't like games where all you have to do is: go there, then go there, go back and so on... Fight system is horrible... You can lose fight against dude without any weapon while you have full armor and huge sword just because NPCs have huge damage and when they hit you once - they will hit another 4 hits, while you can't hit more than 3 times.

    Разрабам ККД, впрочем как и многим другим, не дают покоя лавры третьего ведьмака и поэтому они решили использовать те же подходы в разработке, а в частности упор на квесты и возложение болта на эксплоринг и рпг составляющую в плане развития персонажа.

    Сюжетка сделана под мое почтение, да и побочки тоже. Возможно даже интереснее, чем в ведьмаке. А вот мир такой же пустой. Фауны практически никакой, нет хищных животных. К вашим услугам зайцы, олени, косули и кабаны. На этом все. Объекты на карте не объекты вообще. Садок с форелью и улей с медом как объекты на карте - это просто смешно. Перки некоторых навыков просто выжиты из пальца и вообще непонятно как это должно усилить или облегчить жизнь моему персонажу. Интересно сделанная алхимия и, что более важно, облегченная под конец.

    Игру проходил в жестком режиме со всеми дебаффами. Никаких особых проблем от них не почувствовал. Иногда доставило ориентирование по местности без метки самого себя на карте, но опыт в выживачах не пропьешь так что норм. Турнир на жестком режиме воистину жестковат, за это респект. Багов за всю игру встречал только два. Один раз не до конца прогрузился город и игра вылетела и один раз словил бесконечную загрузку. Всё это за 200+ часов игры.

    В общем по плюсам:

    + интересные квесты
    + интересная боевка
    + годный графен
    + годная стилистика средневековья и встроенные исторические факты

    Минусы:

    - Пустой мир
    - Слабое развитие персонажа
    - Жесткий режим не жесткий
    - Чуть затянутый пролог

    В общем игра не бяка, но и не фонтан.    … Expand

    Kingdom Come: Deliverance developed by Warhorse Studios and released in 2018 is the best game I'll never finish.

    I'll begin by    Kingdom Come: Deliverance developed by Warhorse Studios and released in 2018 is the best game I'll never finish.
    In this review I'll be going over various topics such as story and characters; visuals, performances and sound design; side content and finally, gameplay and controls. Please enjoy. Hopefully you find this spoiler free review enlightening and helpful.

    I'll begin by prefacing, I didn't finish Kingdom Come: Deliverance. I'll get onto the reason why later in this review but just know I have sunk a mere twenty five hours into the game. I played the game on PS4.

    The storyline of Kingdom Come: Deliverance is really rather simple, here is a light summary.
    A young man, Henry, is thrust into the land of 15th century Bohemia when his village is attacked and his parents killed by a vengeful ruler and his barbaric army. Henry sets out to claim revenge against his parents murderer though that is certainly easier said than done.
    The concept is sound and compelling. It is a great example of how story can work hand in hand with gameplay in an immersive way. Henry begins the story as a talentless, cheeky trouble maker who can hardly pick up a blade, let along use one. Throughout the game Henry grows into a charismatic, deadly, cunning force who can cut down a bandit without breaking a sweat.
    His journey is rich, compelling and unpredictable and rarely drags. It is more than enough to keep you glued to the screen. It all feels positively grounded and realistic, because it literally is.
    The characters are defined and interesting and many have excellent arcs.

    Perhaps the greatest aspect of Kingdom Come: Deliverance is the painstaking attention to historical accuracy. The world feels so alive like I'm stepping back in time. Peasants beg on the side of muddy roads hoping for even a lick of food, birds flock over dense forests sending their calls all through lush, sun-kissed valleys, its thousands of these little touches that make the land of Bohemia a joy to live in. It's a minor issue but the frequency of sun showers really irritated me, people who have played the game know what I mean. All in all one of the most immersive games I've ever played.
    The graphics are good. The lighting can, at a handful of times make the game near photorealistic however textures pop ins are ridiculously frequent as are other graphical glitches. Load times are extremely long bordering on three minutes occasionally. Now, allow me to highlight the greatest flaw of the game in my opinion GLITCHES BUGS GLITCHES EVERYWHERE!!!!!! This is what ultimately put me off Kingdom Come Deliverance. From small glitches like texture pop ins and clipping to catastrophic issues like whole quests glitching and extreme game crashes. Awful stuff, even two years after the game was released.
    Sound design is occasionally inconsistent but mostly authentic feeling and snappy especially in battle and in urban areas. Very present and immersive sound.
    The voice acting is off-putting at worst and serviceable at best. Major characters are voiced well enough but side characters often feel lazily voiced. I also noticed many of the same voices repeated across several NPCs.

    The side content for Kingdom Come Deliverance is actually pretty damn excellent. It contains a large amount of activities such as, gambling, hunting, exploring, looting as well as many traditional side quests allowing progression in many different ways. Time never really feels wasted no matter what you're doing. The side quests themselves are fun, lengthy and varied. They all have multiple ways to complete them and they can even be failed altogether. They feel as player driven and choice based as the main questline does.

    Now, onto gameplay. Combat can be tackled in a variety of ways. Keeping your distance with a bow (my personal favourite), charging in with a longsword or sneaking around slitting throats after a bit of pickpocketing of course. It is extremely grounded and realistic you don't have a reticule when aiming a bow for example, and it takes a lot of getting used to, but it does become quite a bit of fun when learnt. This is no fantasy CRPG where you have a million ways to spec your character, far from it. It is unforgiving and "hardcore", as much as I hate using that word, it seems fitting. Many people don't like the lockpicking minigame but it never bothered me, I found it extremely tough but fair, I didn't play the sneaky type though. I enjoyed all the mechanics revolving around speech as well.
    The controls are pretty awful. I hate games where you must hold circle to speed up and then have to awkwardly stretch your index finger over to the thumbstick to look around. Feinting, horse movement, locking on and general traversal feels awful.

    When Kingdom Come Deliverance is running on all cylinders it is an undeniable masterpiece of game design but at its lowest, darkest moments it is a buggy, fiddly catastrophe which is what ultimately what put me off.    … Expand

    Good game but not perfect. The dialogues are terribly animated. The game also has a lot of bugs, and DLC's are not worth the price, they are just WAY to short. The ending is very unsatisfying. The combat in the game is hard to learn but when you master it, you'll love it. I'd say the game is worth the price, but is not perfect

    Upon the release the PC version is the only reasonable way to enjoy Kingdom Come. And there’s a lot to enjoy, because historically accurate Middle Ages are an awesome setting. The beginning of the game might not be spectacular, but give Deliverance a chance and it will develop into a unique, deep, gripping experience. [04/2018, p.42]

    A robust RPG deserves your attention not only for its domestic origin. You will easily forgive its smaller mistakes because of a great narration and a complex gameplay. [Issue#283]

    Kingdom Come: Deliverance is a different kind. It's incredibly absorbing in its pace, it amazes with a manically detailed medieval era features and a totally true atmosphere, a series of skillfully built quests and, and when you get used to it, a fantastic combat system. There is a one-too-much cliché in the story arc, but the main problem lies in the technical issues. The game is, however, such a remarkable, huge, different and fresh experience that the occasional bug can be simply ignored.
