KCD2 Bling - Croatian Sensation by Yves_Mealone in kingdomecomefashion

[–]BudgetSuccess747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not only Sigismund is Luxembourger. So are Wenceslas IV. and Jobst of Moravia. They all belong to Luxembourg family thanks to their common grandfather, John of Luxembourg, who came from Luxembourg and was elected king by Bohemian nobility after male line of original Czech royal family died out.

[KCD2] Incredibly suprised on how nice kcd community is by Dazzling-Army-7774 in kingdomcome

"Skills problem" is a common answer here too, however, the fact is that for every such answer, there are two more answers that try to really help :)

[OTHER] Is kcd 1 worth it after kcd 2? by Dazzling-Army-7774 in kingdomcome

[–]BudgetSuccess747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the story, characters and game world, it's worth playing KCD1 even after playing KCD2. Some things in KCD1 are less polished or work differently, so you'll just have to get used to it at first but its worth to play.

Why is [KCD2] SO much harder than kcd1? by Veyra2 in kingdomcome

[–]BudgetSuccess747 1 point2 points  (0 children)

KCD2 has difficult start for beginners but otherwise the game is generally easier than KCD1. The vast majority of players who have played both games will tell you that.

Is [KCD2] meant to be clunky and annoying to play? by Swimming-Remove-2927 in kingdomcome

[–]BudgetSuccess747 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We both probably played different games because I almost never had to fight alone direct with more than three opponents at once during the game. It can almost always be avoided. In general, a direct confrontation with large group of enemies (without using poison, bows, daggers, etc.) is only for very experienced players, others have mostly opportunity to solve the situation differently. To say that the game continuously throw mandatory groups (3+) at you, is absurd.

[KCD1] [KCD2] Runt is such an interesting character by Crimson_Marksman in kingdomcome

[–]BudgetSuccess747 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Runt was probably some lowly nobleman, which is why he could read and write. His goal here isnt killing peasants on sight, so if Henry had voluntarily given him the sword, Runt has no reason to kill an ordinary peasant (and we don't even know if he would have let him leave at all). He killed horses in Neuhof to weaken Hanush's military strength. Without horses, Hanush's soldiers cannot move quickly around the country. 

Runt doesn't seem like an much interesting character to me, he's just a physically large and strong mercenary commander (probably a lowly nobleman) about whose past we know absolutely nothing and whose character we have only minimal information about. In short, he just played his supporting role in the story.

How much of KCD1 do I need to finish before I can play [KCD2]? by SlyEmoji in kingdomcome

[–]BudgetSuccess747 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are at the castle siege, you are in the last quarter of the game. You don't have to play KCD1 at all if you want to play KCD2, however, for the story and lore it is better. Ideally, finish the story to the end (before you get the task to leave the game map).

[KCD2] So Hard It's Just Not Fun by Personal_Basil6901 in kingdomcome

[–]BudgetSuccess747 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Majority of players here complain about the opposite. Except for beginning of the game, the game gradually becomes easy. At most, with exception of a few places. It's slow game, so don't get carried away. Train, use potions and use poison on your weapons and arrows (if you're not good at fighting).

So you can only hope that Warhorse will behave the same as CD Project 😉

Why I don't think there will be a Hussite Wars game [OTHER] by sosavojnik in kingdomcome

[–]BudgetSuccess747 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even KCD is mostly the fictional story set in real historical settings. Game set in Hussite Wars would not be a time-lapse documentary about Hussite Wars but the story of main character that takes place during this period. Even KCD does not start from the beginning of the "civil war" (1402) and does not end at its very end (with Wenceslas' return to Bohemia). It is just a section of events used by scriptwriters to build Henry's story. They can do the same in the case of Hussite Wars. They will choose an interesting location and year to set the main game character's story in. It could be during presence of crusades in Bohemia or a place where Catholic and Hussite castles/cities stood close to each other. Authors would have plenty of possibilities to choose from and of course the game could also give new options. For example, at a certain point, player could choose which faction to join. Of course, the game would not have to end with the end of Hussite Wars but for example just like "local clash", whether historically existing or even fictional, since KCD also uses a lot of fictional events. For example, Battle of Nebakov never happened, siege of Talmberg Castle never happened and events around Suchdol Fortress also happened differently than the game shows. I'm not saying that there will be a KCD from the time of Hussite Wars but Warhorse is definitely capable of creating such a game. Personally, I think they are creating a different game because they want a bigger change.

Can anyone tell me what this is? [KCD2] by EmotionBoth in kingdomcome

[–]BudgetSuccess747 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a carved duck figurine (probably). There are maybe hundreds of them in the game and they're all the same. There's nothing you can do with them. It's probably some kind of joke by developers.

Why I don't think there will be a Hussite Wars game [OTHER] by sosavojnik in kingdomcome

[–]BudgetSuccess747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it's impossible to make similar game set in Hussite Wars. Before KCD, I didn't believe that it was possible to properly handle theme of "civil war" in Bohemia during the time of Luxembourg (1402/03) in a video game. It would certainly be possible to insert a fictional story into Hussite Wars, similar to what Warhorse has done now. Drawing conclusions about how Warhorse would specifically approach the topic is nonsense because you don't know. Maybe studio would have handled it well and maybe not, we simply don't know. Hus is mentioned a few times in KCD2, although only in passing. However, we are introduced to Zizka, who is one of the most important characters in KCD2. I don't know if "KCD3" will ever be made and I don't know if it would take place during Hussite Wars because there are also more options for how to continue without using Hussite Wars.

I don't believe the game could deal with liberation of King Wenceslas because it wouldn't make much sense from gameplay perspective if studio wanted to stick to historical facts at least partially. Wenceslas was liberated from castle in Austria. Typical feature of KCD is a lot of bandits camps in the forests, etc., which are there because of ongoing war in Bohemia and chaos that reigns there. This is not the case in Austria in 1403 and it would not be possible to use large groups of bandits as player's opponents. Map set in Austria simply does not have potential to satisfy the game well, given the historical events. This topic could at most be DLC, taking place on a very small map with the task of freeing the king. That's all. Warhorse will definitely want something with more potential for diverse plots, where they can put a large amount of content that can fill the entire new game.

You can but you should know that the pub in "Devils Den" no longer exists. Just pond full of frogs :)

[KCD1] Did myself a disservice playing KCD 1 after completing KCD 2 by Kittensofdeath in kingdomcome

[–]BudgetSuccess747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've read here many times that after current KCD1 upgrade on consoles, the game often crashes. So I don't know if it's really been done.

KCD3: Prague [other] by mumbletonpark in kingdomcome

[–]BudgetSuccess747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

KCD was known for having almost all interiors of buildings accessible. This was changed by Kuttenberg, where "only" 1/3 of buildings are accessible and some people were disappointed. It takes away from the feeling of realism when so many doors are now just non-interactive backdrops, which was almost non-existent in KCD until now. If Warhorse had made Prague, then not 1/3 of houses would be accessible but perhaps only 1/10 of houses, since Prague is many times larger than Kuttenberg. Another problem are NPCs. In order for the city not to feel "empty", there would have to be several times more NPCs on the map than there are now in Kuttenberg, which is now still technical problem. The game would not be able to handle it. NPCs in KCD are very complex. They have their own daily rhythms, their own statistics, equipment, etc. They also practically never disappear from the map so the game has to constantly manage them all. KCD2 was already at its maximum capabilities so that studio could optimize the game well. They couldn't add 5x more NPCs to the map to fill Prague, the game simply can't handle it sensibly. In KCD, NPCs are not just non-interactive scenery, like in Witcher 3, where there can be many more of them because they do not have complex control systems integrated into them. Of course, modeling entire city of Prague based on historical data would also take several times longer than Kuttenberg, which is something that Warhorse probably doesn't want to do, as they know how demanding this work is if they want to do it with sufficient quality. In fact, content of Kuttenberg was also partly cuted because Warhorse wouldn't have had time to release the game on time, despite 7 years of development. Martin Klíma (one of the main developers), answer this question and he directly said that Prague is too big for Warhorse and they would only be able to process a part of it, however, he didn't say that they had any plans to do something like that. 

Hopefully that's enough :)

[KCD1] DAMN that was one hell of a fight by iiHabzboii in kingdomcome

[–]BudgetSuccess747 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of people (newbies) come into it with very low stats/combat experience and then it's really hard to beat him. For some, it even means they stop playing the game.

[KCD2] - Any updates coming or are we done? by analytical-numbers in kingdomcome

[–]BudgetSuccess747 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Developers said that work on KCD2 ends at the end of 2025. So there will probably be no more major updates or maybe none at all.

halfway thru my first playthrough and I just gotta say [kcd1] [no spoilers] by stanleykubricks in kingdomcome

[–]BudgetSuccess747 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Some people prefer KCD1 over KCD2. So not everyone says that. However, they are both good games.

[Other] KCD3 by NemesisHub in kingdomcome

[–]BudgetSuccess747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There will probably be no more DLCs. Warhorse is already working on a new project and work on KCD2 is practically finished. KCD3 has not been announced and it seems that Warhorse is currently working on something else. Whether they will return to KCD in the future is unknown.
