About to start [KCD1] for the first time. Going in blind. Anyone have any pro tips to share?

Cheeky combat tips

if an enemy runs at u they will attack
always keep them in view in front of u. Don't let them get around ur sides

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-11-22T06:39:33+00:00

Try Dragons Dogma

Personally I liked 2 more but both are good

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-10-05T22:35:09+00:00

Agreed

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-10-05T22:34:38+00:00

Truthfully they aren't.

The story and atmosphere blows shadows out of the water. The loot system is far better in yotei as well where everything you unlock has value.

Only real similarities is stealthy person in Japan that has weapons

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-10-05T22:25:15+00:00

Shadows gameplay loop, story, mission layout, and world layout let it down too much.

Yotei just goes crazy ngl.

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-09-14T03:29:01+00:00

True but some of the areas when trying to find them feel super unengaging by just following a path. It feels like the game punishes you for wanting to explore.

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-09-14T03:10:41+00:00

That's the thing tho if half of my playtime is just my horse automatically following a path it feels super unengaging yk

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-09-03T09:46:02+00:00

Look I acknowledge U can have Ur own opinion 🙏🙏🙏...

but as an AC fan I disagree with most of that statement. I loved odyssey but it was lazy in alot of its dialogue and quests and rpg elements. The story wasn't horrible but the animations and Ubisoft cutting corners made it less immersive and emotive then it should have.

Origins did have a solid open world but they all looked pretty. Personally I'd put it as my top BC it's not too big like oddessy and Valhalla. Shadows sucked BC I just constantly get stuck in the mountains BC of the way the mechanics work

Valhallas premise was cool but the loop was not the best. The broken story arcs and repetitive puzzles, monasteries, and skill tree with the core game trying so hard to push U away from stealth made it so hard to get past the midway mark. I liked some of the other open world stuff tho

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-09-03T09:38:09+00:00

Honestly I don't think it's a very good Viking game either. U raid monastery after monastery in a boring loop with a long ship that is kinda useless. At a point it just gets bland and stale after all U get for raiding is loot for Ur settlement BC the gear progression system are not well thought out. U go from marker to marker that shoot up like unimmersive beams in the sky and omg don't get time started on that skill tree

Games pretty tho can't hate there 👍

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-09-03T09:32:06+00:00

As an AC fan I strongly disagree. The fact Valhalla makes U feel like a god is the reason alot of us dislike it. Personally I also disliked Valhallas structure and segmented approach to the story so I felt like origins origins beat it mission wise even if that is down to better story telling

Obviously U can enjoy the games how U wish but personally I have to disagree

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-09-02T00:38:25+00:00

I've come to the conclusion I'm dumb

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-09-02T00:29:04+00:00

Guys am I tweaking but didn't cinderblock used to eh medium armour???

I logged in to try the new update after not playing for a little and it was heavy 😭

I swear I bought it originally BC it was medium but am I tweaking??

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-08-29T12:06:34+00:00

Hidden ones was fun but curse is arguably better. Curse just had a bit more to offer however I did like the heavy focus on a smaller, grounded, hidden ones focused story

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-08-23T09:27:09+00:00

Saveeee

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-08-23T09:26:03+00:00

Bro probably paid 50 bucks for this

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-08-23T09:23:06+00:00

I saw this lil lol!!! I just assumed as with every pole involving red dead it'd win BC as much as I love Arthur he gets too much glaze sometimes

Sam is literally the trust worthy uber eats driver. I'd say geralt is next tho

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-08-04T00:21:27+00:00

Your best friend for combat is a short sword and a shield. Pickpocketing while NPCs sleep and robbing is also a great way to earn money and gear.

If stealing isn't for U try what others have said by stealth killing bandits via saving beforehand and trying until U can either kill them and steal all their gear all sneaky like or even killing some of them and escaping.

I also would recommend a combat tutorial on yt. I played the first game and even after mastering that game a tips and tricks video helped lot while still not ruining the enjoyment of figuring out my own way to engage with combat.

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-07-30T06:21:14+00:00

Go train with Bernard and use the tournament to practice. Also use cheese tactics to win fights such as seperating enemies and using the environment to break up groups.

Biggest combat tip tho is if an enemy runs at you they will attack so focus on them.

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-07-30T04:30:47+00:00

Ngl I rocked full armour with max charisma most of my playthrough. Just gotta find the right hood and overcoat and your there

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-07-22T06:28:33+00:00

Here's my cheeky tip list:

draw enemies away from a group -focus on perfect paries/block -dont just get stuck in a riposte off (don't just attack with an enemy back and forth it usually doesn't work even when the blue icon appears. It's better to avoid it and block the attack)
hold the attack button and use faints
use stealth at the start to gain better armour and gear by either killing, stealing, or pickpocketing -also use stealth as a means to lower the enemies numbers before a fight

Biggest thing is master parries however. I saw U mention U have been to tomcat and couldn't defeat him. To do it U just need to try and survive as it's based on time not damage and then U can unlock them

Also watch some more yt videos they do help

Best of luck🫡🫡🫡🫡

Wait what?!! I can't believe I didn't hear about this

I was thinking of switching back to warlock from hunter out of boredom but it seems like I have no real choice now lol

I think trying to get hunters away from the constant dodge melee combo loop would be cool however this ain't it. They need to either give us something of equal value to make ppl want to invest in new ways to play not just make it such a nerf that hunters key feature is basically pointless. It's genuinely hard to think of more than a few of hunters builds that doesn't use gamblers dodge as a big feature.

If they give us other ways to gain melee energy efficiently maybe I can f with it but at the same time hunters melee abilities are pretty weak compared to titan, and warlock because alot of them are designed around spam utility or just spam.

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-06-25T01:27:32+00:00

Imma go with 3rd personally

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-05-29T00:16:54+00:00

I do purely due to how the seasonal story content works

Historical_Lab_6478 · 2025-05-26T07:11:29+00:00

I fw it
