  There was a perk for one-hit knockouts and it would crack me up just running around and bonking people with a mace.

  The beginning, where you are fleeing on horseback along that creek into the valley. I was amazed how real the terrain felt to me, it wasn’t just designed terrain, with random hills, valleys and forests, it felt naturally, alive to me.

  The creek split the valley, which was in the beginning soft hills with a light forest on them, the deeper you got into that valley the terrain gradually became rougher, with big boulders and cliffs. RDR2 had a similar feel of terrain that just felt more naturally than in most games.

    Then I got a job with some snooty highborn, had to hunt rabbits with the fuck, ran into a group of 3 soldiers and then got my ass handed to me so bad I restarted from a previous save to re-learn the combat… i love this game lol

  The cutscene with the priest where you get wasted with him and have random bits of consciousness, including wandering around in a girl’s with sheep baaing at them. Then having to lead the sermon the next morning hung over. Was so hilarious to me

  Never being able to figure out the combat style despite spending literal days training with the knight with wooden swords.

  Being absolute trash with a sword, then suddenly getting to a level that I can win a fight without a ton of luck

  For whatever reason this YouTube video about playing the game after 100 hours is burnes into my brain.

  Sword swinging was okay.

  For me it was going to Skalitz for the first time after the events of prologue. I had 3 bandits attack me right after leaving Rattay, finding out several towns on the way, finally reaching right as the weather turned very angry with thunders and rain, only to find the aftermath of the prologue.

  Getting bored/ stuck at the monastery and having to give up. Personally I really loved the combat system and enjoyed being ganged up on by like 3 or 4 looters. Keep the nice armor in the saddle, quickly equipping it, and having almost max combat skills meant getting some easy loot every time to upgrade my swagger.

  Nice storytelling, but clunky combat that I got burned out on fast :(

    The combat was solid for 1v1 but the game put you in so many 1 vs many situations and switching targets on the fly was not smooth or quick enough.

    Bow and arrow didn’t have that and it was so satisfying

  Game breaking bug that made it impossible to progress on the single save file I had. I won’t be buying KCD 2. Also the CEO of the company is a massive cunt.

  I think I watched the Zero Punctuation episode on it. Was that before or after he started pronouncing colons as dry heaves?

      I think he started doing that with Lichdom: Battlemage.

  Terrible combat for anything more than a 1v1 that made it take 3 attempts at picking up the game before I finally made it past what one would call the opening bit

  Then immediately put it down out of exhaustion

  • Great RPG
  • I don’t like RPGs that much

  I’m a backer of the first title. I don’t regret it. I’m just a little sad that it didn’t captivate me to the point of continued play where I’d get more out of it.

  I’m so patient I still haven’t played it. I’ve owned it for a time, but haven’t gotten around to it.

  Maybe I’ll do a marathon with it, as in play through KCD around launch, and then once I get a hankering to play something similar, KCD2 will be well patched and finely aged. :)
