>all the posts about it seem to be about how it's le hard this and that
>it's actually super easy if you do the entire training quest and not just the first bit
>economy is completely fucked once you get a horse because it basically gives you basically infinite inventory space and just a few trips back and forth from any fight with armoured opponents nets you great boons
>combat is clearly designed for dueling and yet the game keeps throwing multiple enemies at you, yet using the bow feels like cheese because it's so trivially easy to hit anyone if you just put a dot in the middle of your screen
common comback is "hurr durr have you tried fighting 3 guys at once irl" well why does the fucking game keep throwing 3 guys at me in missions huh?
There's a lot more i can complain about, open world basically runs out of content once you're done with the town that starts with R and the one with the chuch under renovations, the rest of the map is basically filler.
Story is kinda shit, some chapters are neat in the same way a mid TV show can have a good episode but the our protag's motivation is really weak. Hometown gets massacred by some thug, go kill that thug, right, makes sense. But the guy that ordered it is so distant he can never realistically be involved in the story. So once that is done, all that remains is "hurr durr i want that sword my dad was working on" even though the guy the sword is for says he has like 100 and doesn't care, so that feels incredibly contrived. And then that gets resolved in the first third of the game also. The rest is just kinda meandering from random assignment to random assignment until the game ends.
Searching for treasure is somewhat fun but the game can't reward you with much more than money and shit you sell for money. I had the absolute best gear 1/3 through the game just because i did sidequests as they appeared.';

Combat against multiple enemies is so fucking shit, the game devolves into holding S and spamming the top down swing with a hammer to get easy bonks on the head, or cheesing with the bow on horseback.
Stealth is bad, I don't feel like explaining how, those that played the game know.
Really buggy in places, honestly kinda disgusting that they're selling it like this. I had to play the silver mine mission with a guide open because despite the game giving you several objectives and making it seem like you can go to any of them in any order, if you don't activate them in a particular order you will fuck up your save forever. And no I don't mean missing out on optional stuff, I mean the game is bricked. What the hell?
Skillchecks sometimes help you and sometimes skip entire quests and you have no way of knowing which it is until you do it.
Some quests are timed and the game doesn't tell you this (fair enough) but also this kinda punishes going off because they're timed from when you activated them. For example, the quest about helping the sick next to the church under construction. Story-wise they've been lying there since before you arrived, but in-game the moment you talk to the lady in charge it starts a timer on their fate. This punishes you for venturing off-course and exploring the new location and talking to everyone "before you're supposed to" since you can get that mission before you get a horse and it sends you to bumfuck nowhere in the northern part of the map.
Speaking of which, some perks are super useless and feel like they're not even implemented. There's like 3 first aid perks and there is only one time in the game where one of them is used.
Performance is bad because cryengine is an outdated engine that performs badly.';

DLC are legit scams. The game itself was very much alright though with glaring flaws, but the DLCs are legitemately and honestly scams that are falsely advertised. They're the only time I've ever demanded a refund for a video game (thank's epic for giving it to me) because they were the only times I felt cheated, not just dissapointed. For example, the kickstarter page promised a "playable female character" as a stretch goal. They reached it, but not only can you not play as a woman in the base game, the DLC is basically spitting in your face for wanting to be a girl as you are tasked to collect flowers for 2 hours and that's basically it. I wish I was joking.
Another massive scam is the "hans capon dlc". It's called something like "the great adventures with hans capon" so you'd expect the guy to be majorly involved in the story but no, it's basically a glorified cameo in a dlc that otherwise feels like some cut content sidequest they felt like charging separately for. I think I did everything there was to be done in 1 hour or so. I could break every DLC down like this (other than the free one amusingly enough) but I don't feel like typing anymore, I'd be putting more effort into this post than they did into the DLCs. If I was smart enough to do so I would honestly sue for false advertising and I think I'd win.';

'I finally beat the game today.
I wonder about some things. I've heard people say that you get locked out on certain quests if you progress the story too much, they've made it seem like you can miss out on quests without notice and I wonder exactly when those moments are. As far as I know, I was never locked out of any quests and they made it crystal clear when it would happen
When you approach the bandit base at Vranik.I made sure to do all the side quests before then. I had them all done by the time you have to find the German soldier Ulrich.Holy shit, I hated the Monk Monastery quest, I hate following their schedule, I'd rather kill myself than be a monk. There's so much waiting and not being able to do anything, and I kept getting locked up in solitary confinement. I hated it so much so that after I figured out who Pious was (after he poisons me at meal time and then tells me everything), I reloaded a save and decided to skip the tour he gives me and then I knocked him out and stomped his brains in for his dice.
I'm mixed on the whole end of the game. They give you so many nonsense busy work jobs, there's a lot of waiting around, and I don't think it entirely made sense. Why bombard Talmberg with the trebuchet when Sir Radzig and Lady Stephanie were in there? They could've been killed.
I liked the game. It took me a long time, but I got used to the combat.';

Eh. I bought the complete edition because it had a gigantic sale so i got it for peanuts. I'd say it was worth it, if only because of the Rattay Tourney allowing for some actually hard fights...if you use a mod that reduces the retarded riposte spam.';

The tournament dlc is free
It's also the only one that isn't a scam
It's every other dlc that ranges from bad to "I've been robbed"';

That's funny, that is exactly what I did when I first played the game because I got softlocked out of the quest by an early release bug. To this day I have yet to do that quest because of the bad feedback people give about it, it's much more fun to just sneak in at night all in black and assasinate him anyways.
>>3469084
The Rattay tournament is a free update, not DLC. Not that other anon but I'd say the DLCs are not that interesting, most of them are just quests that could have easily have been part of the main game except for the Lady's Lot and From the Ashes which add new mechanics or have you play as different characters.';

never in all my years on god's green earth have I played a game as immersive as Kingdom Come: Deliverance. the ratio of dollars spent to hours of entertainment is simply unmatched, on both developer and consumer sides. if I could spend the rest of my life in any video game's world, I would choose the hyper-realistic set piece of Kingdom Come: Deliverance. The flaws, which are numerous, simply highlight the dual nature of man and his struggle with coming to terms with God. Kingdom Come: Deliverance convinced me that the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will one day return, and that it is my solemn duty to create a world which he would be proud of. There has never been a more Holy video game. The theme and message is concise but also expansively detailed in the gameplay itself; riding through the rolling green hills of Kingdom Come: Deliverance brought me from the pits of hell and "delivered" my soul to God. Demons will say this is a shitpost, but the truth is that I can only speak honestly since playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance. It's entire being reflects the limited but perfect nature of the soul. Perhaps that's where the term "soulful" came from. I don't know, but what I do know is that you're fucktarded if you don't like Kingdom Come: Deliverance.';
