The difficulty eases up as your character becomes stronger and can give a sense of accomplishment because you overcame said difficulty. But it's just grinding xp to be able to complete missions or survive any single random encounter. That's the best way that i know how to temper my words about this game. Because at the end of the day, I genuinely don't know if i've ever been more mad at a game, especially so consistently. I hate this game so much. I often find myself dizzy with anger at this game.

    great hardcore medieval RPG from developers of Mafia games. Very realistic environment, weapons, medieval cities of the Czech Republic. Nice graphics. Good story. All your activities will have an impact on the game world.

    - many bugs at release time, but many patches have already been released.
    - some quests could not be completed
    - only first person view

    Incredible game. I love it

    The alchemy is just simply awesome. The combat is very deep, the decisions, the dialogue possibilities... This game really let you the decisions to be a fighter or be diplomatic in many quests. For the combat, the game let you the possibility to just fight or to make some plan. Poison the food to your enemies, ambush them while they are sleeping... Yes,

    Yes, you may experience some errors, and the save game system may be frustrate you, but it's very well done in my opinion. I played other games like The Elder Scrolls series and I ended saving game before each combat and that make you lose part of the game experience.

    Highly recommended. This is a complete medieval simulator.

    KINGDOM COME: DELIVERANCE is the best ROLE PLAYING game ever made. It beats all the SKYRIMS, WITCHERS, FALLOUTS, FINAL FANTASY's out there for sure.
    Firstly the environment mops up the floor with all those games. This is probably the closest you can come to foto-realism right now, but only when it comes to environment. Animations however are a whole different story, unfortunately they are
    KINGDOM COME: DELIVERANCE is the best ROLE PLAYING game ever made. It beats all the SKYRIMS, WITCHERS, FALLOUTS, FINAL FANTASY's out there for sure.
    Firstly the environment mops up the floor with all those games. This is probably the closest you can come to foto-realism right now, but only when it comes to environment. Animations however are a whole different story, unfortunately they are very wooden. The character models aren't top notch either.
    I did enjoy the music in the game & the sound effects are good, the voice acting is hit & miss.
    What KCD nails is the immersion and the role playing aspect: you play as Henry, a blacksmith's son. You are not a hero, you're a wimp. You have to LEARN everything in this game. Swordplay, shooting bows (there is no cross hair, mind you), even reading, yes reading, until you master it texts appear as glyphs. THIS is how immersion and ROLE PLAYING is done right. Henry doesn't just pick up a sword and is able to fight a group of bandits, he needs to spar and learn first. The combat is excellent but takes a while getting used to. Mashing the left mouse button will achieve nothing but getting you killed. It actually feels like you are actually swinging a sword.
    The saving system is what other games would call "hardcore"" you can only save the game when using a bed (and you cannot spam that either) or drinking "savior schnaps" which costs a pretty penny. The game will "bookmark" your progress when you quit the game, but will delete that save when you return.
    This is old school gaming at its best: no quest markers that pinpoint the quest location, no arrows pointing the way. Not hard core enough? Survival mode takes away the compass and you will have to maneuver the world using the sun for orientation. Thanks, I'll keep my compass... Food & drink & rest are required survival aspects. It's a hardcore experience where even a task that is simple in other games (lockpicking) becomes a science to be mastered. A failed quest is worth continuing in many cases and does not necessarily mean "game over". Beware however: active quests don't wait eternally for the player, when the quest says to be at a location at a certain time you'd better be there on time. THIS is how RPGs should be!
    Another example of how this game is not SKYRIM is alchemy. You do not simple click on two ingredients in your inventory, but rather follow "cooking instructions" using an hourglass to measure the boiling time.
    Don't expect dragons or undead or any other kind of mythical fantasy creatures in KCD: it's a realistic(ish) medieval game, NOT a fantasy game.
    Fans of survival games will LOVE this game, as will any true RPG fan. Also keep in mind: there's no difficulty sliders, no easy mode. This game is HARD. And no, this is not comparable to a certain Japanese-made game, KCD is a league of its own.
    Now it is true that this game ruffled some feathers (the typical SJW crowd) so let's be frank: the game was designed with realism and history in mind, not to make a political statement and tick off all the SJW boxes. If that is what you are looking for, most every other game nowadays does that, pick up one of those. Also if you want to play Super Sigfried the Dragon Slayer who can dual-wield claymores from the get go and run in full plate armor while doing acrobatics, again, this is the wrong game.

    This game is a mixed bag, and definitely not for everyone. I'm inclined to give it a 7, except that it does something I've never seen another game approach--it paints a reasonably accurate picture of mediaeval society, at least by gaming standards. The ignorance, the naivety, the holier-than-thou privileged nobility, the decadent Christianity--all of it plays some role in this game, which is really original and refreshing considering the cartoon middle ages we usually get in games. The creative direction is consistent and uncompromising. The tragedies it portrays arise naturally and don't feel too contrived. It's wonderful.... but...

    Yeah, there are problems too. Lots of them. I'm a software engineer. I know it's hard to make software and I rarely complain about bugs, but there are lots here. Keeping this game running is a challenge. Unlike any other gog game I own, it got infected with viruses three times and I had to download it again and reinstall it. When I first bought it, it would usually become unresponsive on launch. Once it launched with k+m responsiveness it would be okay, but that was only 10% of all launches. That means it would usually take half an hour to *start* a playing process.
    Even after that was patched up, the other stuff was hit or miss. I could never tell if a quest was intrinsically hard or I'd hit a bug. I'd "save" a young noble from bandits, while we were still surrounded by them. I'd get stuck in the bushes with the nearest save being hours in the past. I'd confront a character about something and he'd apologize for trying to poison me... even though he hadn't. I'd try to steal something from a house that certainly wasn't there. I'd deliberately try to avoid collecting certain quest items before the quest began, because the game wouldn't recognize those things after the quest start. I'm sure there are other things I'm forgetting.
    There's also a lack of balance. Most of the game is spent wandering around and getting attacked by bandits. Imagine bits and pieces of engaging story separated by periods of monotony that were a bit too long. I found myself forgetting what was going on. This balance is worse on the second iteration on hardcore mode when there is no fast travel. (I went through the game twice.)
    The other problem is that the quest mechanics can be a bit too hard. (Minor spoilers here.) The second time I finished the game I started googling the solutions to some of the quests I hadn't finished the first time around. I rarely google, but there was no way around it with the difficulty of some things. However, it turned out that my ideas were right all along, but I just hadn't gotten the mechanics right. I was shooting at the trunk of the "topping out" and not the ribbons. I assumed that the forbidden book cabinet was like every other container and not a place where you have to search for interactive objects. I wasted hours trying to do those quests before the internet confirmed my suspicions and held my hand the last 10% of the way! I said *hours* Warhorse! I know your testers got used to interacting with your world a certain way but what is obvious to you may not be obvious to typical users--and I'm an advanced user of software. I make and use software for a living. Even if it's completely unintuitive I can usually guess my way around its flaws and keep going, but it was a lost cause with that tree ribbon. How the hell was I supposed to know an arrow would get it down? For a while I even tried jumping towards it or trying to fetch a halberd and thrust it down.
    I enjoyed the survivalism. The combat was pleasantly difficult. I liked the fact that your armor gets damaged and has to be replaced. I liked reading. I liked the fact that the Cumans speak Hungarian and that they're not "evil" but rather there by an accident of history. I liked the Christianity--the middle ages were very religious. I liked the architecture of mediaeval Bohemia--which was very realistic.
    But I did not like having to leave birds' cages in specific spots on a hill somewhere. I mean, those spots were extremely specific--Henry will only drop them on the right pixel.
    There are broader flaws too. Henry can be too many things--a thief and a noble. The more in-depth quests have too little C&C and there are too few of them. Most NPCs are so dull they belong in a Pagliarulo game--they're essentially interfaces in human shape.
    Still, I'd say the game is a success and it should influence others. I want to see more of this kind of game and less of the sort that tries to be everything and please everyone so that it can fit a "broad" and riskless business model.
    I don't want riskless trash. I want unity in creative direction. I want characters. I want convincing societies and with convincing social norms. KCD does those things.

    Underrated and easily one of the best games of the year. Outdoes anything Bethesda has done since Skyrim. Anyone who is a fan of Skyrim and Fallout, or just RPGs in general owes it to themselves to play this game.

    Favorite Thing: The good voice acting is really good. It puts the, much higher budget, FFVIII Remake to shame.
    Least Favorite Thing: The combat. I really hate it. It's so janky and constantly feels like I'm fighting against the controls to get it to do anything.

    Date Stopped: 2019-09-11
    Playtime: 8h
    Enjoyment: 5/10
    Recommendation: After 8 hours it failed to hook me in the least so no.

    Extremely enjoyable and historically accurate ( for a video game) but still fun and enjoyable. Great characters (real) and story. Despite the many report of bugs after more than 100 hrs did not find many and none that ruined the game. Very demanding graphically should be optimized.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. All has been said about the bugs.. but apart from the bugs and the "realism" the game is actually pretty dull.
    I liked Kingdom Come Deliverance from the start: the engine in solid, graphics are good, the attempt to create a down to earth medieval rpg is good, fighting is a bit strange at times but mostly passable. But content wise the game is pretty much empty. And it should be called Kingdom Come: Riding Simulator. Virtually every quest involves riding around the country, often across half the map and back. Across a supposedly war torn country where people tell you they can't go to the next village with all the bandits on the roads. Bandit's? On which roads?

    After I had to take a break from playing it I can't get myself to try again and probably never will. Huge parts of the game have been rushed and while the bugs will be fixed eventually they will never repair the core game. Even the main quest line dissolves into a boring mess after the first hours.

    That being said if the price goes down and you are bored.. try it out. The first Elder Scrolls games where pretty bad too, so there may be hope for a good sequel if Warhorse Studios makes enough money. Just don't expect more than a medieval riding simulator with a few fights and cut scenes in between.

    the quests and exploration are very similar to skyrim but the side quests are not repetitive and the exploring isn't as exciting, since the most interesting thing to find at are the ruins which are mostly abandoned and have no loot.

    the game is also very buggy and poorly optimized, most people would let that slide since the game was made by an indie studio, but that is not excuse, the consumer expects a good experience from a game whomever it was made by

    aside from alll the bad things i said, this game is the closest i have seen to a real representation of the medieval age.

    I just finished this game. Had so much potential and there were times of absolute joy during some of the time and I think, overall this is a decent game. Combat was tough against groups, easy one on one. Graphics were something. They were good, truly was a beautiful world.

    Issues though. So many issues stopped this game from being amazing. Bugs. Game crashing, quest breaking bugs. They occurred frequently but in my play through began to pile up towards the end of the game where the quests were getting a little convoluted compared to the standard fetch quests that were the stock quest. Quests failing seconds after receiving them for no apparent reason led to much time spent replaying things that I had already done. Yay limited save game mechanic. The few mods that are out there try hard but at several points had to remove them all to progress as would often get caught in an infinite loading screen. Had to remove mods, play to get back to that point praying for the best... Not a good time.

    WTF moments - Cloister quests and their omnipotent mind reading guards. Such a bore. Ending was quite underwhelming. Invincible characters are silly. Especially when they are on my side. But nothing beats the epilogie for pure WTF. It went... forever? And never went anywhere! it was death!

    Good game plagued by issues! Coulda been amazing!

    Let me start this off by saying that I was one of the people who followed this game when it was announced on Kickstarter.

I was excited to finally get a historical medieval RPG and I have to say that the game delivers that in spades. It's refreshing to see actual real world kingdoms engaging in war and have a game set in a medieval fantasy without it being bogged down by magic, elves, orcs, etc. The story and the voice acting is also pretty stellar itself. However, that's the end of what I think are the game's strongest points. This gem is bogged down by various weird design choices, clunky mechanics, horrible optimization, and bugs galore even though the game itself has been out for over a year.
    The combat, one of the most interesting aspects of the game for me just feels, not great. Is it realistic? Yes. Does it capture the closterphobia and chaos of real medieval fights? Yes. However the god awful lock on, not explained clinch mechanic, not explained one-handed vs. two-handed differences, and the depth-perception issues really drag it down. I would find myself having difficulties in fights not because of my own skills, but rather because i was having to wrestle the camera to switch between multiple enemies whenever it felt like sticking to someone. I would also constantly misjudge the distance between enemies and myself due to the lack of depth perception from the games unique camera style of your character being a fully rendered model that you can see with the camera being placed on your head. Also the parrying mechanic didn't feel really balanced, with you being staggered and counter attacked whenever you get parried however when ever you parry an enemy they immediately block your counterattack. Archery is also difficult due to the lack of depth perception, the fact that you can't aim before drawing, and that your arrow doesn't go where you're pointing it. As someone who does real life archery with historically designed bows I can guarantee that it's by far much easier in real life than it is in game which is just weird.
    Also the lockpicking and stealth mechanics of the game don't feel great. Lockpicking is this really weird, **** it system in which if you try and go about it slowly you'll just break your picks, rather you need to just force the lock. It feels like such a step back when you look at the lock picking system or skyrim or fallout which feels much better and more intuitive.
    The game also has this weird disconnect between it's immersion systems. You have to constantly ensure that your guy is fed and sleeps, however you can't start fires to cook, you can't set up camps to sleep. You can't buy or build homes in various towns to ensure that you always have a place to rest. Also you can't quick bind things, you want to change from your longsword to your mace? You have to go into a menu. You want to eat? Go into the menu. You just got into a tavern brawl that forces you to use your fists? You better go into the menu to ensure that you re-equip your weapons because the game doesn't automatically do that for you. All of this just makes the "immersion" and inventory mechanics feel clunky and unimmersive.
    Finally, the bugs. Oh my god are some of them bad. You sometimes get the fun and weird bugs like everyone in town's voice lines being replaced with lines as if they're looking for you while you're in stealth. But then you get game breaking bugs. Quest NPCS being frozen in place with you not being able to talk to them. NPCs blocking you into building so you're just stuck unless the game randomly decides that the NPC no longer has collision. You get pushed by an enemy into a bush that you're now trapped in for all eternity. Falling into a pile of sticks that you can't get out of. You and your horse just randomly being stuck while walking. And good old fashioned infinite load screens, which come from everything, even just changing your control settings.
    All in all the game is a nice gesture and I wish to see Warhorse improve for their future projects, however this "immersive" RPG never fails to unimmerse me with the constant need to be in the menus, clunky mechanics, and various bugs.

I believe game can be done without dying. KCD have great amount of dialogues and many options how to solve your quests, which is completly RARE these days. My first run of this game was about 80 ingame hours, and I did not finished all quests or reveal all secrets. Looking forward to KCD2. I did not find any big BUGs during this time, there was few technical but I was able to do all mine quests and they did not have impact on abalitiy to finish quests etc. Some animations are glitchy and loading screens are being shown to often.

    9 points. Why? Well, ´cause the main issue is the performance and bugs. But - I´m sure, Dan and his team will fix it. What cannot be fixed is a story, way of gaming and the feeling from playing. And this is awesome. So, you can blame on me, but I am sure, the Warhorse did a great job and some issues can/will be fixed. More games like this and maybe...one day... we will definitely destroy9 points. Why? Well, ´cause the main issue is the performance and bugs. But - I´m sure, Dan and his team will fix it.

    Game is broken and unplayable, patches fix one issue but introduce 10 more. Patches also come slowly even when known gamebreaking bugs which prevent progress are well documented.

    Perhaps in a year this game will be worth buying, as the concept. setting, and story are interesting unfortunately the underlying systems need a hell of a lot of work still. Should have been delayed at least

    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.
