    This game is absolutely incredible!! Didn't even know about it till I saw it on the shelf! Why is this not more well known?!! If you love realism without absurdity (which is usually the case of RPG that go for the ultra realistic) this game will slip your sock right off and put your feet by the fire. Such an incredible achievement in the gaming world. Gaming at it's finest truly.

    Gorgeous visuals, intense combat, varied and interesting mechanics, engrossing story, and a really cool "hook" of being set in a highly accurate medieval world. Awesome achievement for such a small independent studio.

    7.7 hours in and I'm loving the game. It's absolutely incredible. Being able to explore Bohemia is wonderful and being able to do it in a non-fantasy world, historically accurate world even better. Hunting has to be one of my favorite features.
    Thankfully I haven't encountered many bugs.
    I just hope for better optimization in the next patch.

    Finally a game where I don't have to play as THE hero! It's very very entertaining and the combat is fun, although a bit clunky.

    4.7 hours in and this is absolutely fantastic.

    Optimization could be a bit better and so could the glitches, but nothing game breaking or ruining so far.

    Amazing game and cant wait to keep going.

    Juego épico menospreciado por la prensa amarillista de los videojuegos, llena de toxicidad e intereses económicos.

    Un juego RPG medieval con una ambientación realista, inspirado en la Bohemia del siglo XV durante el Sacro Imperio Romano.
    Unos gráficos ultra realistas, sonido y banda sonora excelentes, un buen control, una historia épica, cientos de horas de juego en centenares de misiones, combates basados en técnicas de esgrima reales con cientos de armas y escudos, un sistema de confección de armaduras por capas basado en el sistema real de la edad media, miles de objetos de todo tipo, diferentes caballerías y monturas, con total y absoluta libertad para ir dónde quieras a tu antojo, cientos de NPC's con los que interactuar, etc, etc.

    Cosas como tu aspecto, tus atuendos, tu igiene personal, etc, influirá en la opinión de los demás hacia ti, e influirá en el respeto que tendrán los habitantes de Bohemia hacia tu persona, con lo que tendrás que cuidar estos aspectos entre otros muchos.

    El juego tiene un ritmo tranquilo y nos va metiendo en situación poco a poco, cosa que se agradece dada su extensión y su inmensa riqueza en todos los apartados jugables. Es un juego que quizá no sea totalmente apto para personas impacientes, que busquen acción directa y sin complicaciones. Requiere de cierto aprendizaje y de cierta destreza, aprendizaje que nos muestran en las primeras horas de juego pero durante toda nuestra aventura, iremos aprendido más y más.

    Es un título que en principio es algo difícil, hay que adquirir cierta práctica como comento más arriba, no es como un The Elder Scroll que prácticamente desde el comienzo puedes ir dando espadazos a diestro y siniestro. Esto es más bien como un Dark Souls, al principio tendrás que ir con pies de plomo, ya que cualquier fallo en combate podría costarte la vida.

    Un videojuego épico en todos sus aspectos, realista, bien hecho, cuidado y mimado hasta el último detalle, poniendo el máximo realismo posible en la mayoría de sus apartados. Largo y difícil, que sabe recompensar al jugador de manera muy eficiente.    … Expand

    When I heard a "realistic RPG" was coming out, I was excited. I imagined having to face actual real life problems, like sleeping, eating, bandaging wounds, brewing potions, hard combat.

I imagined having to face actual real life problems, like sleeping, eating, bandaging wounds, brewing potions, hard combat. And mostly, this game delivers it all to perfection, but at a cost. Turns out doing realistic things in a videogame is a double-edged sword. The combat is extremely boring and clunky at first, barely being able to fight a single person with my sword makes for a very annoying and long fight. I would constantly break my lockpicks when trying to steal something, I would always get caught when trying to pickpocket someone, I would always fail when brewing a potion, I couldn't hit a single arrow shot, I would immediately die when trying to kill a guard. Simply said, realism is not fun.

    However, the more you progress and the more you get accustomed to the combat and the hundreds of mechanics this game has in store for you, the better you become. Just like in real life. And that's where the real genius of this game lies. After about ten hours, I could easily beat my opponent in a one on one, but if there were two guards on me I stood no chance. 25 hours later I'm smacking three enemies around like they're nothing. A "true RPG", where you actually get better as you progress because of real life and in-game experience. The RPG elements are fully fleshed out, experience points, item management, ability points, combos, stats, and gear (there are at least 10 different types of gear your character can wear at the same time, ranging from rings to helmets, each impacting things like Attack Power or Weight).

    This also is accompanied by an epic story based on real history, about a poor swordsmith's son who fights his way to the top. Voice acting is superb, graphics look amazing, soundtrack is epic. The developers of this game are also very friendly, promising to release future free content. If you want to scratch that RPG itch, this is the game that will satisfy that need. With over 100 hours of content, you really can't go wrong buying Kingdom Come Deliverance. Stick with it and you will find your money's worth.    … Expand

While I haven't finished it yet, I marvel at how well they were able to craft a deeply detailed world mixed with a great story all from a brand new developer.

    The story itself is not terribly original, but where it shines is in the light of other games. Most RPG gamers are at a point where we are no longer excited about having to save the world for the 100th time, but here, Warhorse isn't trying to sell us on that same drawn on archetype. We are a worthless peasant, trying to make his way in the world, and in that, the game truly shines. I find myself constantly wanting to continue forward and figure out what to do next. I also replay missions in my mind and wonder "what if I did ____ instead of _____." This is where the brilliance of their execution comes into play. Without a doubt, it's the most fun I've had with a game in a long while.    … Expand

Voice-acting was very good, as good as Fallout RPGs. The quest system is the best I have seen, tho not perfect. Impressive how well thought-out the game was. Only experienced minor bugs. The save-game system is not really a problem once you figure out how to implement it. However, inexperienced or passive gamers might find some aspects of game frustrating, thus mitigating their enjoyment of this gem. The game has so much detail and depth that it can be replayed (using a different style) without any problem.… Expand

    Haven't played such an immersive game in a very long time. This is a type of game you really look forward to playing. It takes some time to get used to the game mechanics, otherwise it's super great. I hope M&B Bannerlord will learn from these guys, they sure did a good job in creating this game.

    This game is simply brilliant, the graphics stunning, the gameplay addictive and the story engaging. What a great game. Skyrim and Witcher 3 feel now so dated compared to this 2018 superb PC game.

    I haven't ancountered any bugs at all, and I remember well: Skyrim and especiall Witcher 3 were full of graphical glitches and gameplay bugs that only got patched out in the first few weeks.

    The most immersive, morally challenging and historically interesting game I think I've ever played. The aesthetic of the whole thing compels me even at the 'boring' bits. The combat system forces the player to realistically size up events, instead of running in and mashing buttons or becoming godlike overpowered. Really well optimized and no bugs experienced.

    2020/Dec - 160 hours, only bug being stuck on some rocks, fixing by fast travel.
    On PC seems like photographic quality. Amazing varied woodland.
    Soft finish, already being nostalgic about a 2nd play-through.
    Very few games have this level of RPG.

    Yes, this game is realistic and hard. But in a positive way! Realism works the way, that you dont have to think about game mechanics, because they work like in real life. And hard gameplay simply doesnt allow you to rush the game - you have to think, be careful and again - play like if it was real. Wonderful!

    Its not for everyone though, if you expect handholding, power fantasy elements or completely frustration free experience you should stay off, be warned! This game will punish you, hard and often, but reward is so, so worth it, believe me.
    The game itself is worth it for its grounded based story of common man in hard times, and even though set in medieval times, there are many elements modern people can relate to, making it really captivating experience.
    There are definitely some technical issues so far, but I am certain they will get patched soon.

    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]

    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.
