      They did change the appearance to resemble the actor of Henry. You can find the early look of Henry used in development and he looks completely different. I seem to vaguely remember that one of the devs mentioned, that was intentional, in an interview somewhere, but I might be wrong.

    1) The devs have revealed, that lowering the visor will be optional and human controlled in KCD2.
    2) Info about the combat system is pretty scarce, but the devs have revealed, that they will abandon the 5 directions system and replace it with a 4 directions system. They are a bit mysterious about it, but they did say, that it should be slightly easier to pick up, but promise, it will be as hard or harder to master than in the first game. One of the things mentioned for instance is slightly more benevolent timing for combos in the new game.
    3) The protagonist a classic blank slate character, but Daniel Vávra is actually represented in the first game as he did body acting for sir Hanush.
    4) The first one did have a Kickstarter campaign, but that was more to show that there is demand for that kind of game to acquire further funding, because their requests for funding were being denied because a medieval game with (little to) no fantasy elements was considered too risky by all the major players. Now they do have funding and there is no need for another Kickstarter campaign. The company now belongs to the Embracer group.

      OMG, I pray they bring him back just so I can hear Brian Blessed. Warhorse really understood and went all out on the assignment. The game is an utter masterpiece as is but they also threw him into mix. He’s famous for his role in black adder as the king and just exudes a wholesome, larger than life, medieval vibe. Warhorse as a studio must have some kind of magic crystal ball, or a phone number for the Lords heavenly secretary as they; created a 24K golden artwork, adorned it with gemstones and other lavish and luxurious items, popped it up on 150ft marble pedestal, and then proceeded to get right to work on the next. They are genuinely a role model for all other studios and deserve all their praise, respect and success.

    Everybody is blown away by the fact that there were just 11 people working at Warhorse but Daniel Vávra unfortunately didn't explain it very well in the announcement. Warhorse started with 11 people but when the first KCD was finished they had around 150 people working on it. Also the first game wasn't really funded by the Kickstarter campaign. They just needed to convinced their investor that there's enough demand for a purely medieval historically accurate game and since the campaign was a huge hit the investor was satisfied and funded the development of the game. Warhorse were later sold to THQ Nordic. My cousin works in the company as a concept artist and the fact that they were sold didn't influence the company in any negative way apparently. So hopefully the second one will be great. I'm really hyped for it 🙂

They have a lot more space inside houses, stairs are a lot more spacious in the game, towers, ramparts, etc. I remember actually Vavra mentioning it that they know it is inaccurate, but when they made realistically small houses, staircases and so on, they had problem with the character being unable to move.

    I really like the development between Henry and Hans in the first game. They begin as squabbling young men, pitted against eachother due to their differences in social class and all that.
    But as they spend more time together they go from master and servant to being really good buddies getting into all sorts of trouble together.
    I especially like how Hans goes from being an obnoxious fop to being revealed as a more sympathetic and generous guy too. It's just a good feat of writing and character development.

The castle had its own winery, and we all got drunk. The guide told us that the castle was returned to the previous owner, and now the duchess lives here. We all started looking for this duchess, it turned out to be an elderly woman who was drinking with us all the time. The whole group wanted to take a picture with her and asked her to put on jewelry and a crown, which, according to her, she did not have.😂

      @@anttitheinternetguy3213 Technical reasons. There's only so many buttons on a controller (less of an issue on PC, but the game's functions have to translate across platforms). Given that hood and helmet are most likely in different equipment slots, there would be a need to assign different commands for that. Given there is no gameplay reason to do it, they likely won't. What could be done is a prompt in the inventory when you equip the hood to ask if you want it up or down, or a simple command in the inventory menu. But an in-play shortcut seems to be more hassle than it's worth to create.
      EDIT: I wouldn't be surprised however if our friends on the modding scene came up with something on PC. Considering the game uses CryEngine (or a heavily modified version of it), the game files should be accessible and somewhat easy to modify, from AI to textures or values. It's not the easiest out there, but reasonably so compared to others. You just need a solid coding knowledge, provided the studio doesn't too heavily encrypt files or modify the engine to breaking point.
      Edit edit: made a short dive and it turns out it might be slightly more complicated because the engine is so modified that even the latest official CryEngine updates aren't compatible with KCD's version. So you'd need old timers that are familiar with it and have the old tools (unless the studio provides the tools, which isn't unheard of).

A studio with 250 people is big, but compared to the biggest ones, it's still quite a bit smaller.

Maybe another era, another area, but I'd wager they will stick to "bringing history to life" in their games.

He would need tongs and a thick leather gauntlet/glove do cope with the heat conduction involved, these guys were tough but they still burnt like us. As for the bows, the longbows never had any wrapping as you pointed out, the one picture of a bow with a 'grip' is a composite recurve bow (horn, sinew, wood, fish bladder glue, resin etc..) and would have a grip as shown.

    It is most proper to have firearms in the game. Apart from Hussite wars (which were only years in coming at first installment's time frame) where firearms were famously used to great effect, the Bohemians seem to have been early adapters of new firearms later on as well: for example the English language has (among many others) borrowed the word _pistol_ from Czech language, since these new short guns came to cavalry use there in late 15th century. You might want to Czech out more into this etymology sometime Metatron!

    Back in the early noughties, games frequently featured actual actors, rather than CGI NPCs. I was surprised to see my co-worker talking to me from my computer, calling me 'General' and such... He was one of the grunts in the game Krush Kill n Destroy and like most actors, he worked in hospitality to make ends meet.

    There was a trebuchet in the first game. Played quite a big role at the end of the game.
    The combat system, according to developers, should be more versatile. If you fight with an axe, you probably won't need that many skills and combos, but with the sword techniques, you really may go down the rabbit hole, if you want. You'll also be able to forge your own weapon.
    Those early firearms will be really difficult to use and quite unpredictable. The may blow into your face and scare people and animals. But if you manage to hit somebody, it's game over for them.

    I loved almost every single thing about kcd. A few things here and there that were intentional, I installed mods to "Fix". But overall I love how hardcore they are in the whole rpg experience. Of course the sequel will be grander in scale, because warhorse means business and want to continue growing. But i hope to use henry's blacksmithing skills. I want to see not just bigger battles, but things to make the game more replayable. More things to do that are continous and keep the game alive for longer. Like owning a bussiness or something. Like making and selling weapons for money in your own shop. Doing caravan guard jobs, running a bakery etc

    Hi Metatron! It's good to see that you like KCD as much as the youtuber whom I learned about KCD in the 1st place. When you were talking about crossbows, I got so happy because I've seen the trailer before & know there are crossbows in KCD2. I was waiting to see your reaction that there are indeed crossbows! I was so happy to see your face light up!
    Interesting thing to note, when I saw KCD streamed, Henry was not that good looking to me. I don't know if the game devs did that on purpose to show the lack of confidence & how everything was affecting him. When I saw the trailer for KCD2, the actor is sooooo handsome. Even in KCD2, Henry looks wayyyyyy better. It reminds me of how the game devs show Henry learning to read in KCD, you see the words make more sense as you level up Henry.

    Great point on the bow wih wrapping. Having tried a few medieval bows it really isnt even necessary. The grip is good enough without any wrapping.
    some of the bows are very tough to draw. Nothing like a modern compound bow. Lots of training needed if you want to hit the target reliably. It makes sense that crossbows took over.

    Hey Raph, I have an idea on how you could go about the armored playthrough of KCD 2 if you decide to do it.
    Instead of just wearing some armor while playing the game, you should change armors irl to match the armor that Henry is wearing in game. Of course, it does not need to be an exact replica, just get it as close as you can with the stuff you already have. So if Henry is wearing basic civilian clothing in the game, you should wear that irl. If you wear a kettle helmet in the game you put one on irl as well. Once you get plate armor in game, put your armor on irl, etc.
    Another extra "challenge" that you can do is that you keep the game running while you are changing armors irl, so if you loot a better armor from bandit no. 1 while bandit no. 2 is aproaching, you cannot just pause the game and put the better stuff on unles you decide to cange the armor irl as well. This could lead to a gameplay where you need to consider your moves more carefully and also test how the trope of changing armor while adventuring alone (in almost all games, not just KCD) actually works.

  • @Daniel_Kani
    @Daniel_Kani Před měsícem

    So much looking forward to this game, and I hope the armour in general is more "correct" and it certainly looks that way!
    I also hope to see more enviromental effects. The forests and nature were already great in KCD 1, but I'd love to see stuff like mist and fog, maybe rolling over the water of a river or lake. I look to Red Dead Redemption 2 for such effects, it's stunning to just explore nature in games like these, where you just stop and stare in awe.
    Oh, and I hope there's a really big cathedral to visit. I want a really really big one. Like, huge.
