If you play first one don't be fooled by the combat at the start, its meant to be bad till you get official training in the story
This was what turned me off of playing the first game. Got so annoyed at how feeble the character felt in the beginning. Especially as I attempted to save the first damsel in distress 20 times.
Yeah it annoys me when people complain about the combat, the combat is one of the best things about the game and it's perfectly reasonable that some random blacksmiths son is going to struggle against bandits and warriors when he swung a wooden sword for the first time a day before his village was attacked lol
@@Cnith Youre not meant to lol you just whistle and run away, they will chase you and she will escape, you stand 0 chance of defeating them at the start, even in the end game without a bow you would struggle.
I might have to give it another shot then. I got so frustrated.
@@nick11jl I defeated all of them on my first playthrough by fighting them on the horse. Then I was pretty much OP for the rest of the game because I got their equipment and had lots of money from selling the rest lol the game rewards you for being creative and I really enjoyed that aspect
The first game is straight up one of my favorite RPGs of all time, absolute gem.
@coreymuha Same here
agreed
The graphics and world look soo damn amazing i just wander in forests for hours
I tried it a few times and I can't get past the lock picking stage, watched a bunch of videos and it's impossible
Keep your sweet baby mitts off this game
As someone who grew up in Eastern Europe, Kingdom Come has been the only game that really nailed the look and the feeling of the rural countryside. When I first saw Skalitz, I thought I was transported back to my grandparents' village. Also, the game had the most realistic forests in any game.
As a Czech i can recognize many places you can see in that trailer or in kcd1.
you mean central europe right?
@@jalefar8247that's cool
@@GoGicz there's not much difference between eastern and central Europe.
@@chairmanmeow8481 there is actually, about 1200 years of history, central europe was extra close to western europe and never to eastern europe.
KCD has been reviewed by Medieval historians and their biggest beef was that wood planks were used a bit too often in commoners buildings. Other than that, it's very historically correct.
Yeah good luck affording wood back then, but some concessions need to be made as I personally wouldn't want to explore dirt homes.
In kcd's defense, they did adress this in the codex
@@tbone9474 Well it's more the extra process of turning logs into planks that made the cost climb. Many were made from just logs fitted together and chinked.
P.S. Swat Kats was the shit!
@@tbone9474
Honestly, the dirt floors are already dirty enough, especially with the puddles of water
And sword masters reviewing the combat turned into commentators but no negative points were made
I love the game and i talked to some historians and something i always hear is, a game or any fictional art can never be historicaly correct. Just because of the lack if sources and stuff.
Kingdom Come? nah, I Kingdom Came. Deliverance straight into my fucking pants
IGN and Kotaku said that this game is more "diverse" than the previous one, soooo that's a thing.
Nice
@@IncognitoActivado They probably add some minor npc gypsies or something like that
@@derniercaesar5319 Well, if it is some persian trader or whatever then nothing agains it, but don t put black people just for diversity, there were no blacks in Medieval Czechia and they are very rare even novadays, This games should be imersive, hope that they ve got enought money from the 1st one for czech dabing, that would be awesome.
Wish that was me...
Cant wait to see him ragequit after the first fight 😂
He couldnt get pass the Cuman on the siege level hahaha
he will try to fight the cumans chasing him, die about 2 times then quit lol
I tried it a few times and I can't get past the lock picking stage, watched a bunch of videos and it's impossible
A real shame that IGN and Kotaku said that this game is more "diverse" than the previous one, that makes me skeptical about this sequel. XD
@@huynhyurivanvladamir7978 A real shame that IGN and Kotaku said that this game is more "diverse" than the previous one, that makes me skeptical about this sequel. lol
Asmons right. I remember when I first started playing the first game. Not only do you start the game not knowing how to read so all letters are jumbled, you don't know how to swing a sword either. The Controls are so unique in terms of combat that it has a hell of a learning curve. But once you get it down and you start perfect parrying with combos thrown in and no cross hair sniping guys with your bow to start out fights, all while looking like a badass knight.
Try the game if you haven't. It will be tough at first but keep at it and you will be rewarded with dopamine.
Straight up best first person rpg I've ever played
Bro, just the quest in the first game where you have a night of debauchery with a priest and bar maids makes the game priceless!
If you look closely in the trailer, he actually seems to be joining us in the second game. Probably got kicked out of the clergy for preaching Jan Hus or something and now he's returning to his mercenary roots.
@@prorok3382 In the trailer I saw a glimpse of famous wagon fort, which were used extensively in Hussite Wars in Bohemia. I'd wager that priest became more radicalized, left the Catholic Church and became fully committed hussite warrior-priest.
@@liveforever141 For Sigmar and Jan Žižka!!!
I was a bit concerned that we woke up in a field with sheep and the priest bleating😂
lol "they had dogs back then" made me laugh so hard.. bro they had dogs since the Ice Age
Is that the same dog from the first game?
our Asmonbald himself is a prehistoric primate, evolution, appearance and, especially, hygiene-wise
He dwells in his cave and thinks everything outside practically stays the same way ancestors prescribed
We had the dogs from the tribal human era.
/whoooooooosh
Technically we're still in an ice age.
the first kcd was the most beautifully designed environment for me. i hope they still has that level design quality.
its set in medieval Bohemia today's Czech Republic the enviroment is real and its out there the buildings the forrests the streams are all here in our beautiful Czech Republic you can visit and see for yourself the cities aren't designed they're copies of real cities and villages here.
IGN and Kotaku said that this game is more "diverse", so no.
@@IncognitoActivado The game takes place in a murch larger medieval city. Merchants from all over Europe travelled through these cities to trade. Are you scared by the world "diversity"?
@@DogePasta Considering what is seen in some of the frames in the trailer, I'd say yes; it is w@ke.
@@IncognitoActivado As a person from Czechia, where the game has a HUGE fanbase and Daniel Vavra (the creator of the game) is a well known person in our political sphere. I am 100% sure that this game won't be (as you state) w@ke at all. He is very much against it.
I absolutely love the first game and not only because I am czech and visited the in game places irl. Truly a marvel of RPGs and atmosphere.
Fun Fact : the Cathedral is in Kutná Hora / Kuttenburg and right next to it is medieval ossuary with bones of medieval people, perished during the plague. There is a chandolier, chair, various furniture, all made out of human bones.
Is it possible that this game (KGC2) map could cover the whole Kingdom of Bohemia?
@@cerobalam no, devs said that it´s about twice as big as the first one and if we would assume that the Kuttenburg would be in the middle of the game map, that leaves still a small, yet interesting chunk of bohemian kingdom. Parts from where I am from. If they would do the whole bohemian kingdom of the time, they would need to do Prague and other very big cities as well.
@@cerobalam And there are around 1000 castles, chateaux and ruins in the Czech Republic
Nice, thanks for sharing!
@@cerobalam I believe that there will be castle "Kost" ("Bone" in translation). Which lies in the Bohemian paradise, not far from "Trosky" castle (the twin tower castle shown in video). Even Jan Žižka z Trocnova, warlord and strategist that defeated crusades in Bohemian kingdom (during hussite wars) and was never defeated, stated:"Leave the Bone to the dogs", turned away and didn't try to siege the castle.
KCD 1 is so freaking unique. The game is totally historically accurate with many famous historians working on it.
Reminds me of the story of a guy playing the game in Prague who had difficulty getting into the abbot's room in the Sasau monestary. He drove the ~2 hours to Sasau, took a guided tour, asked about the abbot's room, and was told there used to be a secret door connecting the abbot's room to the barracks that were destroyed in the 1600's. He drove home and sure enough there was the door in the barracks to the bedroom.
it's not totally accurate. the biggest glaring issue being the incorrect depiction of Cumans as wearing central asian armor. They were wearing European gear by then, they lived in Hungary since like 1290 and spoke Hungarian.
Henry went from puppy in KCD 1 to giga chad in KCD 2
still need to work on that mewing though
It’s because of how much he ate. He was quite hungry.
i can already see Asmon burning alive in jail in first mission :D
@@thecringeprophet xDDDDDD
I hope it goes from "competent" to "dangerous/renowned"
The thing with Kingdom Come deliverance is the patience. You WILL NOT BE GOOD at the game at the start. And you might just HATE it. Many people quit because of the combat alone. But those that stayed and actually bothered to learn the game were greeted to a masterpiece of a videogame.
100%
Of all the languages, you choose to speak facts
i wonder if you'll be semi good at the start of the sequel. if they want to maintain continuity. but then they need to introduce new challenges?
@@ginjaedgy49I'm assuming you'll be able to win 1v1s against normal dudes. My guess is that they'll introduce more depth to combat, like counters to specific techniques or stance changes. They'll also probably increase difficulty with those crossbows and guns. The world gets bigger and the story focuses on even higher and wealthier nobles, so i expect the skill ceiling to go up as well
And then there's a monastery which is like game within a game where your skills do not matter
I love the first kingdom come 1 and beyond hyped for #2 I've been checking about every 5 months if there's any news so happy!
some tips n tricks for #1:
1 play how you want - you can spec to be a dodging swashbuckler or a tanking behemoth even a thieving arrow shooter and some things they don't mention is such as disguising as a bandit or Cuman to blend in and get close ect.
2 be patient - when you start shooting arrows your arm swings a lot, when you first swing a weapon you're slow and sluggish ect. as you play you level up the skills allowing these things to be fluent as hell and by mid game or late you can clear a bandit camp no problem
3 USE THE TRAINING WITH THE CAPTAIN adds more skills to be better in combat as you continue on
4 some quests are time locked such as the bad bricks at the monastery and due to this have alternate endings
5 Alchemy - use it originally it was so integrated to save you had to buy or brew liquor, it has changed since then but still being able to drop potions or poison's in cooking pots to help or hinder others makes mass battles simpler
6 you armor does affect your sound and how soon others locate you
lastly, Picking herbs helps build strength since you have to kneel and is an aoe affect
I doubt many will read all this if you did thank you for your time and consideration hope you enjoy the game and see yall in the next one
Agreed, training with the captain is pretty much mandatory. When you can start beating him with perfect counters and countering him consistently, is when you feel adequate
This is one of the best cry engine games ever made its not just art direction its state of the art graphics
KCD is the most underrated RPG of all time. The second one WILL be life changing. Jesus Christ be praised.
Yea the first game felt incomplete,because of how they ended it.
But by god did the game immerse me and interest me in the world.
@@gucciguy3408 It WAS incomplete. They had to cut it at 2/3 of the planned length, of the game and drop a lot of systems, including crafting and release even in a buggy status because they ran out of money.
God Be With You, Chuck!
@@Imman1s In this trailer Vávra literally says "KCD2 is what KCD1 was supposed to be"
@@Imman1s It would be cool if you can craft your own sword in KCD2, not by clicking the craft button mind you, but hitting the metal bar until it turn into the shape of a blade, then manually insert crossguard and pommel into it, like Henry did with his father in KDC1 opening.
No way Asmon plays this. Way to hardcore for him. Not trying to gatekeep, but the first game was super tough to get into
Edit: some are pointing the combat isnt that hard once you get the hang of it, which is true. But there is A LOT of dialogue in this game. Im still willing to bet most people will find it boring.
lmao Kunesh gave me the knuckle-sandwich in my first playthrough, bastard got hands for days.
As someone who had no clue what he was doing, and bought thr collectors addition. The game is bloody easy, and he can very well attempt it
Ur so weird
Remember quitting pretty early.
If you don’t wanna spend 2 hours sparring with Captain Bernard just to become decent at combat then this ain’t for you
I think KCD 1 was huge success and proved critics that you can have successful single player first person game and not everything has to be massive multiplayer third person shit like every other game. But it was mainly huge success in Europe and since it's basically Czech dev studio doing a game of Czech (Bohemian) history on its map and place, it makes sense it'll have big fanbase from Czechia and the countries around because you can more relate to it more than some guy from USA or other countries overseas. That doesn't mean they can't play it, the game is built for everyone, but the fact that you live in the same country where the story was made make it even more chilling. :D
at 14:40 they talk about exploration and castles and nature... For me, Im from Czechia and I visited those places IRL and seeing that in a game that's this successful brings tears into my eyes! I so want to play it... and then Asmon compares it to some fantasy game... I mean sure, comparing RPGs to each other but this one is next level because of its realism
As a history buff the first Kingdom Come Deliverance game was a dream come true, the architecture, the medieval art, the combat, the weapons and armour, the codex was truly phenomenal. I'm looking forward to the second game, this is going to be fantastic.
The only part that really breaks the historic accuracy is alchemy. Those potions are OP.
@josephr4761 True, cooking up potions and poisons was pretty cool though.
But that cockney english accent though, why? Just breaks the immersion, use english speaking czech voice actors if they want their game to be more authentic.
@Rooster1124 Same. I even disliked that you would get extra potions for doing too well. I wanted to brew each one.
History huh? What are the chances of seeing a Winged Hussar in this game?
I’m a 40 year old disenfranchised wine mom and this is definitely for me.
Welcome to the circle
I'm 59 and love the first game. It helps that I love history.
@@gilmer3718 I mean any true rpg fan or mmo enjoying gamer can have an appreciation for this game. I loved the survival mode they added to the first one. It would be interesting to see how Asmon reacts to the gameplay.
Lol really?
@@dcmastermindfirst9418Yes, there are some of us who enjoy Asmon lmao. Dunno if op was being serious but I am. Married mom of 3 who watches Asmon with the hubby lol.
I played KCD during covid, and it was one of the best experiences that I've had, it reminded me so much of what it was like to experience Oblivion as a kid.
I doubt Asmon would have the patience for it though, cuz the beginning of the game is kinda rough
I know right. It dethroned Oblivion for me as best RPG of all time
this is in top 3 of my fav games ever . 1st game was a masterpiece . cant wait to see what they do in 2nd
What’s your other top 2 games ?
This isn’t Asmon type of game, don’t think he will enjoy playing it especially the combat but he can try. definitely one of the best old school hardcore rpgs of all time.
KCD1 is like a mix of Oblivion and Witcher, if he enjoyed those he might enjoy KCD too.
@@alesdrobek2512 hes never played witcher past 5 hours and never played oblivion, he just talks about games and triple A gaming, never actually plays anything
@@tarik365 Hm. If he didn't enjoy Witcher there's a good chance he won't have the patience with KCD, sadly.
@@tarik365 true when he talked about Baldur's gate 3 being a streamlined game unlike other ones when its 20 times more streamlined than the last game larian studios did is insane, how he does nothing but play games and still knows so few titles is crazy to me
@@alesdrobek2512 100% he wont like it. He always says combat is the most important thing. And yeah combat in the beginning is so fun (sarcasm)
KCD 1 has the best foliage in any game for long time. Its forest and SFX are so immersive like you're actually in a real one.
I started playing RPGs because I expected Middle Ages, but they gave me fantasy instead. Now KCD gives M. Ages instead of fantasy. Even the first Warcraft was sold under the promisse of bringing M. Ages, almost the same for War 2, somehow the same for War 3, then they included flying cities, spaceships, etc in WoW
@@cristianolima3712 World of Warcraft is a different from Warcraft 3. They just took all famous names and places and just run in the opposite direction! ;-)
If i remember correctly, KCD 1 had even more foliage everywhere but they had to remove a ton of it and optimize the game, there are still some old videos of how the old forests would look in that game
yep, 2nd best in any game ever after sons of the forest
@@Alexander-zt9kz I would still put KCD above. The variety and thickness of foliage specially undergrowth is still much more in KCD. You look at sons of forest, you know it's a high fidelity game, but even know I look at KCD forest sometimes idk if it's real or not.
That old dude with the beard at the end looked based AF.
Till this day, I still open KCD ocasionally to have a wander around in it's beautiful scenery. A little building mod allows me to make campsites wherever and it just feels so nice to chill in that game world. I can't stress enough how hyped I am to see this.
As a Czech, I see it as an opportunity to broaden the awareness of our landscape. Another fun fact, when the fans did the Czech dubbing for the first game, Dan Vávra, who is behind it all, dubbed one character that was modeled after him, and there is supposed to be a Czech dub in the second game. It's our pride and national treasure, just like the first two Mafia games before 2K bought it.
i dont know. unfortunately it seems they are not pushing the "czechness" enough. calling the city Kottenburg instead of Kutná Hora etc.
@@x340x yeah because in that medieval time we were part of Holy Roman Empire, so Kutná Hora was really Kuttenberg, same as Litvínov was named in komunism regime Gottwaldov because Gottwald was president at this time. So it make sense
@@vsudepritomnikde6627 gottwaldov byl zlín ty demente
@@vsudepritomnikde6627 Zlín, not Litvínov. :)
@@ch3rt. Yeah, you're right, I must have mistaken it for something
I did'nt know Henry and Hans look exactly like the voice actors
Motion capture actors, what is amazing is that KC:D doesn't have top tier graphs, but does better than most of games in terms of real actor/modelised version of them in-game.
Bethesda, and some others *cough* might take some lessons of KC:D.
And if you explore internet for Tereza irl face actor...oooh boi you will be amazed :)
I loved KCD1 so much I went on holiday the Czech Republic and visited the site of the game, one of the best experiences of my life. This game will take days to fully get into and more to finish on your first time but don't give up and keep at it. Its beyond rewarding.
The environment in the first game was so real, walking in the woods or riding your horse through open feilds was so good. Look out for bandits while travelling though. One tip , before you leave your starting vlllage pick as many flowers as you can, it will increase herbalism which you will need for healing and strangely your strength will also go up.
I played this game last year, at the time all the bugs are fixed. It’s the best RPG experience I have ever had. For me is even higher than Skyrim and Witcher3.
The combat progression is really amazing in the first game. At first I was getting absolutely stomped with every encounter and I stopped playing, thinking this wasn't for me, I just wasn't good enough for this type of game, later I came back and decided to keep at it, I realized that you are supposed to get your ass handed to you, because you have no skills going up against hardened bandits and warriors, as you train more and more, your character gets stronger and you gain more skills that you can use in combat, then you can start taking on 1 enemy at a time, later 2 at a time and so on, eventually you can become a real bad ass mopping the floor with everyone.
Same as with other skill-based games, e.g. Chivalry.
Okay so i got a ton of game time on CCD and i hope that for the 2 they will make base their combat system on how you used to fight at midle age and look in books by fencing masters of the time rather than contemporary sword duels, really loved first one despite its flaws, unique experience.
Once I understood the combat of KCD I was hooked, did take a while, but I kept at it and it's a great game.
We are getting KCD2 and Manor Lords all in the same year!
That's fun I remember Manor Lords being announced shortly after KCD1 I was thinking building on hype and now they gonna release half a year before KCD2. We now only need Total War medieval 3 to be announced and all medieval fans gonna collectively jizz in their pants.
@@martind5653 I would prefer Empire Total War II, but Medieval III would suffice.
There is no way asmon will play through the first game, the combat system will piss him tf off and he wil quit very fast lol
I'm not worried about the combat but Asmon strikes me as a fan of action-based RPGs. KCD1 is much more about the narrative, survival and immersion than action. It may be too slow for him.
@@alesdrobek2512He enjoyed Cyberpunk
@@TechnoMinarchistBall That and KCD are so completely different on gameplay they can't compare.
@@TechnoMinarchistBall Cyberpunk is a movie game with completely braindead gameplay, how is it even a comparison?
@@alesdrobek2512 true, the game feels more like an interactive movie than a game in the traditional sense. I don't see Asmon enjoying this very much.
16:15 vgm is key. The menu song for dragons dogma 1 told me i was in for an awesome adventure. And i just knew the game was going to be freaking amazing!
I really struggled with the first one, got a couple of mods (saving without saviour schnapps & stopping head bobbing cos it made me sea sick)and that improved it a lot. Still struggled with the lock on to enemy thing for the entirety of the game but I got used to it. Felt strange to run away quite as much as I had to in the beginning, not something many games make you have to do - but it made sense, Henry ain't no super hero, he's just a lad thrust into something he has no prior experience of. Growing better with combat as time went on and towards the end being as good as any of the other people you are fighting alongside whilst still not being some sort of god like combat veteran made it feel much more real. Really enjoyed it overall, strong story, believable characters, excellent voice acting and the scenery was quite breath-taking. And I loved the story within a story in the monastery. Looking forward to 2.
This game is harder than elden ring if you dont read the fighting tutorials and learn the fighting skills along with remembering the combos. So if Asmon really plays this he will die miserably if its any like the first game. Also Kingdom Come was good before Dragons Dogma 2 and even Baldurs Gate 3 it was one of the few gems that came out in all the shit that other devs were pushing out *cough cough ubisoft cough*
It’s not necessary harder just you need to understand to at the start you are nobody and you can beat at full plate train knight
Honestly this is so true. I imagine Asmon not having the patience nor ability to understand the fighting. Even understanding that in the first 1/3 of the game you're basically useless. I hope I am wrong as I'd love to watch him play the game.
Definitely not harder especially when you get some weapon skills. Starting off it's hard just because your skills sucks. Eventually you can just spam blade lock and win them every time and get free damage to easily kill anyone regardless of your training with the weapon
It very easy if u get used to it
First game combat is like raw diamond. You have to learn not just control, but literally in game. But also it have own exploits as master strikes and terrain advantages for archery. But still learning it is very satisfying, when you are not rookie, and more when you finaly can do combos and master strikes.
The original is a CLASSIC now. Like a hyper realistic version of a Bethesda Elder Scrolls/ Fallout game.
It's such a great game. I love the immersive sandbox aspects of it, where you can go out and do things like hunt deer to make money, but if you don't make it to a trader on time, the meat will go rotten. I also love that you can't do things like pickpocketing until you learn them from the Miller.
@slynt_ you can use a preserver on meat to make it last longer btw
@@Mrz_gotban
Or just buy dried meat which also restores energy, or even better, get Human Dustbin
First one was so fun, was so distracted by every sidequest, still havent done the main fully
Me getting ready to play KCD 1 after seeing this: Oh shit here we go again
The people who disregarded the first game back in 2018 because of clunky combat after it released had no idea what kind of gem they passed on.
I also did that because I was running it at like 30 fps. I upgraded soon after and played the game properly and it's so good.
Clunky is such a terrible descriptor. It tells you nothing. What is "clunky." It could be so many different things. "Clunky" doesn't specify the problems so you just have to guess what makes it bad.
Clunky literally means unwieldy, as in unresponsive. It's a perfect description.@@AQS521
Is it still considered “passed on” if you try it for 10 hours and come to the conclusion it’s just not getting any better? Such a shame too, I really liked the story
"gem" lmaoooo the story is trash and it's just a huge fetch quest. You do the siege and voila! The game ends lmaooo
More hyped for this than gta6 XD
Actually same
Same. I'm going to take time off work when it launches.
Game looks super better now. I guess I should finally finish the first game. I remember stopping because there was a lot going on at the time, and I took too long messing around the knight tournament thing.
I'd love to see Asmon play this, idk if he's going to like streaming it while learning the combat and game though.
The most immersive medieval video game ever 🔥🔥🔥
My favourite tapeworm simulator
Not a single DEI box was ticked, you love to see it.
I remember they got flak because of this for the frist game. I wonder what's gonna happen for this one
Still worried.... when I see their producer.
Kutaku and IGN said they're more diverse now then 1
@@yous2244 There are many diverse white people throughout Europe. Journalists are baiting you.
Czchs, Cuman, Hugarians, Poles, Turks, Germans, Slavs, maybe a couple jews. this is a very diverse game.
6:29 😂 I swear, you made it sound like you played the first one this whole time
I had the most cursed encounter in my gaming history in the first part.
There was a bug with Hans Capon in early releases of the game when, before the bath quest, he would start following you around... Everywhere... It doesn't matter where you were on the map, he just started walking towards you and once he activated you literally couldn't escape him.
The interesting thing about fast travel in this game is that it literally speeds up time around you. That means he gets faster too. When he catches you (it's only a matter of time), he will physically lock you out of fast travel by interactiong with you, he won't let you open your map, I kid you not, he won't let you open any in-game menu.
Imagine my horror when I finally released that somewhere in the world there is an unhinged Hans Capon that is walking ON FOOT towards me and once he reaches me I WON'T EVEN BE ABLE TO QUIT THE GAME THROUGH THE MENU, let alone play.
It was quite spectacular. It also ruined 5 or something hours of playthrough (I had to sit in one place in every save and skip time to see if he was zeroed in on me).
This is so hilarious man I'm sorry. Randomly walking Hans capon slowly hunting you down 24/7 can't stop laughing
At that point that's a mechanic. Reminds me of Trebor in Wizardry IV.
@@austincriswell8480I guess listening to it is quite funny but when playing it introduces a meta horror element that horror games try to emulate intentionally. Here it's natural. You sit somewhere on the crossroads in the middle of nowhere and suddenly your map closes and a random ass npc just stays there and says "Hi, Henry". You try to ignore him and open the map but it closes. You consider it some bug and try to reload a save. The menu closes. You think something is really wrong and try to leave on your horse, after some time you try to open a map and is it being closed again. "Hi Henry" - This digital abomination says. He caught up to you.
At this point you realize, it's him. He manipulates your context menus. You try to fast travel away from him but he uses YOUR FAST TRAVEL TO GET FASTER HIMSELF. HE WOULDN'T EVEN ALLOW YOU TO QUIT THE GAME WITHOUT ALT F4. The reason why I realized that the fast travel just speeds up time is because if you and Capon are on foot he wouldn't stop fast travel completely, he would glitch the screen so you could see a couple of frames of his diabolic ass running like a possessed until he catches you on a corner and rips you out of fast travel.
This is peak meta horror, in my opinion.
@@Supahdenning he is a literal portrayal of the invincible snail thought experiment with the difference that, when he catches you, he traps you inside the world by restricting your access to meta level of the game - menus.

Doubtful, no anime girls
It's a very rewarding game. You really have to learn how to fight. You are not the dragonborn and can not just swing like a madman until you win. Every fight is a fight for survival. Also it's one of the few games I truly enjoy little things like alchemy and hunting
This and Squadron 42 are my most anticipated games right now. Loved the first KC:D.
KCD1 was maybe the most immersive RPG I've ever played.
I personally enjoyed Kingdom Come more than Skyrim and Dragons Dogma. Not saying it’s perfect, but really fun and I’m definitely going to do a hardcore play through before this comes out.
U like a more realistic approach
i still got savegames from kd1 on hdd
Same (for Skyrim) although I really enjoyed it, Skyrim doesn't have any of the choice & consequences that true RPG games have. KCD had that and wasn't afraid to let people fail and miss out on quests because of actions they made
@@egordon7543 kind of. If a game came out with fantasy elements, but also had the level of depth KCD has, then it would probably be a better imo due to more freedom and not be held back by realism.
@@bullymcdouble6048 Yea sadly no other devs would attempt it.
Absolutely loved the first one, played when it launched on gamepass just to see what it was, ended up being the most immersive game ive ever played.
Played it twice and really excited to play the sequence
I've not been this keen for an RPG since I played the initial backer's demo of KCD. Ran at 5fps but man it was beautiful at the time. I just revisited KCD for a full modded playthrough, so I'm glad to have it fresh in my mind now that we know the game releases this year! I woke up for work 2 hours after this dropped yesterday and my brain fucking exploded. Literally had to pause at the beginning because I couldn't tell if Henry and Hans' actors were real or in-engine.
a lot of people had complaints on the fighting mechanics.
but for me it was the best one i encountered with melee fighting, it felt like really learning swordplay from peasant just being able to hold it up to really being proficient. getting your skill up by actual practise.
once you got the timing and rhythm it felt very natural.
also best and mature story in it's genre.
no magic, just late medieval life.
I played Skyrim when it came out. Didn't finish it but enjoyed it. After finishing KCD and I went back to Skyrim and just couldn't get into it. The combat felt so childlike/simple.
Asmon playing KCD1 is going to be hilarious for the combat and Intro even if he quits.
I just put this game on my wishlist. I may also try and get the first one soon to play through it before the second one comes out.
Loved the first game. Pretty hard to get into at first because the combat is so unforgiving early game, but once your locked in it's so good
I unironically love the combat in this game, learning to parry turns you into a god. 😂
The first game was awesome, once the controls click, you start battling every single enemy
This makes me so happy. Absolutely loved the 1st KCD. I fell in love with the game after i won the combat tournament the 1st time. I remember riding my horse back toward the mill and the former champion i just beat set up a clothesline trap that knocked me off my horse, then attacked me with a poison coated sword to get revenge. I was amazed by that sequence lmao
So happy to see you watch this and want to play the first game. Its a bit janky sometimes but such a classic. 100% worth playing
Tip for playing: this is based off old-school rpgs like morrowind. So skills determine everything.
Before you run out and try to take on even 1 bandit, train your skills with the guy who offers to train you. Getting a few early points makes all the difference.
Also npcs are on thier own schedule. They will NOT wait for you. If you miss a deadline for a quest, you will fail or piss off the npc
Also pick flowers. Looots of flowers.
I tried playing this game like an MMO just picking up quests, but turns out that the guy that needed a doctor/priest ended up dying from his wounds since i was doing something else than trying to find a doctor for him 😂
The first game was so underrated but I have a feeling this one has a huge chance to win the GoTY. Watch European game studios carefully, Larian, CDPR and Warhorse are the future of the industry with their high quality projects.
Crazy how Larian, CDPR and Warhorse are the studios with the highest amounts of goodwill, release fuckin peak games, and they are all pretty much neighbors.
@@sirjoesphjoestar8361Based central Europe. However, I must tell you that the majority of the CD Projekt Red employees who worked on prior gems have been replaced with woke weirdos. Fully under ESG
I'd hardly call CDPR 'the future' considering just how bad their last game was and the sheer amount of lies/misleading advertizing they spewed out prior to release
@@GenericUsername-qp1ww The game was loved by most. It's completely absurd for gamers to consider an entire studio unforgivable after making the mistake of being too ambitious on one game, out of their only 4 games they released in total, with their previous one being a worldwide massive success, while next to them, there are studios that did bad games for decades with recycled content, microtransactions and such, but they're barely called out, if not even excused.
Let's wait for their next games and see what happens.
@@GenericUsername-qp1ww Well, yes, the messy release of Cyberpunk 2077 was definitely a disappointment after what they gave us with the Witcher series, but that wasn't the fault of the development team. Bosses and Ceos were behind all that drama. The development team turned the game into a masterpiece over time. I think CDPR is still way ahead of Larian and Warhorse and I don't think they will make the same mistake again. Witcher 4 will probably be one of the best games ever made.
first game i found took awhile to warm to due to its combat pacing but really good once it clicks. also people don't get too much hyped with games before they are first released, wait
I love the first game and am super hype for the second. the first one isnt narrow in scope either. I think you will really like it.
Asmongold kinda looks like a character that would be in the game
loooooooooooool
He looks like an 11th century Danish farmer who got told by a Norwegian king to supply him with 50 barrels of wheat by next winter.
Play the first game please
I don't think you would want him to stream it tho
Doubt he would like the combat enough in the first one to play it tbh.
hell fume with the combat mechanics lol
@@Mrsadgirl99would be fun to see. Hahaha
@@TsukiMo0nthe combat is the best part
Bro!! This part 2, people have been sharing this and found out yesterday about it. Part one I have never played or even know what the back story is. BUT, if I saw correctly, the Royal edition for Part one has the main story, and all DLCs for JUST 3.99. I saw that on the Playstation, I'm not sure about steam since I unfortunately don't own a computer. But I'm thinking of getting Part I
No wayyyy dude. I think I have a 1000 hours in KCD, which is completely insane for me in a solo game. Only Skyrim and oblivion got to that point.
Also I did not know that they inspired Henry face from someone from the team wow !
Warhorse is on the same level as Larian for me. When they take a few years to make something, you know they will deliver.
Every game they make is their baby and they put all their effort on it. These companies have a soul.
Also I Am more than pleased to know that they consider this game a behemot compared to the first one, because if I had only one critic to make to the first one, is it's tiny scale when you really have explored and do everything there is. I was starving for all the dlc to release because this game is addicting you hard to stay in.
I hope my 3080 can run it tho it looks gorgeous
Definitely a buy on release. I would preorder it even, you can go completely blind with these guys
One of the few games I would preorder based on the developers / actors
KCD is absolutely one of my favorite RPGs of all time. Real excited KCD2 is getting so much traction.
Screaming, crying, throwing up! I never thought we would see it!
Need to install the first game again, I remember playing until you get your home in the castle after the first boss and then quitting. With all of the DLC it's worth giving it another shot especially with my 3080 I have now.
I would LOVE to see Asmon play this. Although I am bit scared he won't make it thru first few hours, which is crucial to get really into it.
You shouldn’t even be scared he 100% will not make it out of skalitz he will try and fight the Cumans as a peasant and rage quit when he can’t.
We fuckin did it again lads 🇨🇿🗣️🗣️‼️❗❗
Češi můžou bejt opět pyšní 🇨🇿🎩
IGN and Kotaku said that this game is more "diverse" than the previous one, soooo that's a thing. XD
pomeeee pico, yes 🎉
@@IncognitoActivadoseeing you comment this on multiple comments just to get your agenda across is sad dude.
@@IncognitoActivado It's more diverse in the sense that it has Italians and other white ethnicities
If anyone wants to try KCD1.. I'd recommend looking at some of the QoL mods, quality of life mods such as SOFT and easier targeting mods, and also even crosshair dot for archery. The mods don't ruin the experience but make it less frustrating and more fun, IMO.
NOTE: Be aware some of the larger mods have not been updated too well and need quite a bit of kdiff script merging work/understanding to have playing nice with each other or even with the latest version of the game. Most the basic QoL mods however are pretty simple to use!
Been on the closed play test - you have things coming up and it will be brilliant
I only found out about kcd a couple years ago because the deluxe edition was like 80-90% of on steam sale and I had never heard about it . The game completely caught me off guard with its hyper realism , grounded story and characters and just the authenticity of the combat . Really everything about the game is incredible and you can tell warhorse is incredibly passionate . There’s no other game quite like KCD . Also Tom and Luke (Henry and Hans) are just an incredible duo.
So glad that KCD2 is finally announced and damn what a presentation
i didnt play it until like 2023 but i was aware of it through its development but it was so slow and rocky i didnt care for it. But remebering it in 2023 and playing it then was amazing. It was really good. (not on the same lvl as skyrim was for me)
Also the towns were not improvised but the real towns you can check even today.
First games great but combat is difficult by design in such a way that to casual observer it's "bad combat" but in reality it's meant to elicit the idea that combat, even 1on1, is difficult- you were a peasant boy, not a trained soldier, and even after the training, you are inexperienced.
When i saw Henry couldn't read and he had to go out his way to learn to read i knew this game was truly going a unique route.
The games has issues and the sequel likely will too.But you can tell that to these devs, this is truly a passion project.
Quite enjoyed the first one, will be similar value to DD:Dark Arisen at $5, which was an incredible steal.
I'm looking forward to seeing some of the more obtuse systems polished to a brilliant shine, but even still, as a combat rpg wrapped in a medieval simulation there are few that compare to the spirit of KC:D.
the game went from 55gig at launch an went up to 125 gigs as 0f 2024 it was updated so much so over the years its size grew for part one aka 1 since the games is so different with the ability to swing an so on one wrong move in say a fist fight could render you ko-ed in some cases. the game has been optimized also part one was given away to epic users in the past for a week. this is one of a few games i wish had full vr support.
You have to read in these games btw
Especially when Henry is LEARNING to read
I had no idea Henry's model in game was modeled after the voice actor that was uncanny
It's easier to mocap face animations when the 3d model resembles the actor
The devs literaly inserted themselves in the game, Hans, Henry, his uncle, the debauchering priest and other chars i wonder if Theresa was mocap too, she was cute.
@@alejandromacarthy7249 All the faces in the first game were faces of devs or actors.
@@alejandromacarthy7249Godwin has a face of Vávra's (the main dev) father. I find it kinda funny.
Loved the first one and glad they kept the vibe of the first one and pumped to continue the story!!
so where the first game's map was centered around rattay, 2 will be kuttenberg and the surrounding hamlets
Czech Republic mentioned!!!!
ahoj spoluobčane
I'd love to watch Asmon play KCD1, but if ever there was a game to learn the mechanics pre-stream - it's KCD1.
The combat is about as anti-spam as it can get - every click is timing and you have to spend time with a master-at-arms training to level up each skill at least a little if you don't want to get frustrated.
It's a wonderful experience though, and combat always feels impactful.
Asmon can beat every fromsoft game, he has the patience required
@@girth_goblinsouls games are easy though
@@anomitas obviously they’re different games and therefore difficult to compare, but I’d say combat in kingdom come and dark souls is a relatively similar level of difficulty to learn. Both are counterintuitive, at least when compared to other action rpg’s. Both are meticulous and deliberate, punishing input spam while rewarding skill, although the amount of weapon move-sets to memorize in dark souls makes it more difficult in my opinion. In kingdom come, you just need to memorize a handful of combos to beat most armored enemies. In dark souls, there are literally hundreds of different weapon combos, boss move-sets, and timings to learn.
map double of the first one... this is going to be amazing. The first game with 11 people was already insane, happy to see that small indie company succeed into the 250 staff now. About time to replace some of the 'AAA companies' out there
KCD 1 is one of my all time favorite games. Especially as a medieval history nerd who goes hard on Crusader Kings and Mount and Blade. I haven't been this hyped for a game since Cyberpunk 2077.
"i feel i am the target Audience" - Hell yeah Brother!
he is not tho. he isnt a fan of story games in general. like skyrim, witcher, rdr2...
The first part was already a perfect mix between realism and a genuine historical presentation. Can't wait for it!
I literally just started the first one a day before this was announced. I also bought it at full price. I have never been so frustrated, yet excited at the same time.
Looking at some of that architecture already makes me want a freerunning/assassins creed mod for KCD 2.
