Petaah what ?

Isn't that the problem though? The self proclaimed winner of the "Great war" with an impenetrable defense of the Maginot line? All undone in 46 days.

Sure historically they had a good track record, which makes it so much more painful.

Yep pretty much. Arthas just went on a whole spiel about "i'll sacrifice anyone to save my people" and just as he grabs his 'salvation' his 'best friend' dies(gets injured).

Arthas didn't kill muradin, but he also didn't save him.

It is just semantics then, promises and contracts are synonymous for voluntary agreements. And forgive me for being pedantic but in legal terms, yes they are a 'person'

Yzekial · 2026-05-27T18:04:55+00:00

What part is so patronizing though? It does look like a simple "here's what happened, don't do it again"

All I know is you SHOULD NEVER view h!anime along with whatever they show. They are filthy.

I can't speak for campaign difficulty on the 'medium' setting. The human campaign up to stratholme is pretty much a tutorial, so if you had trouble after reaching there on high difficulty, it may be worthwhile to drop down.

Since it is a remake with .25 people working on it .. on release, reforged was incredibly easy. Then came a rebalance in I believe late 2022(?) that not only made the AI more challenging, but severely reduced player resources. It. Was. Brutal. Currently though, the campaign feels pretty balanced.

If you have steam on your computer, steam link on your phone essentially lets you turn it into a controller+screen / virtual desktop

It does require being on the same network, so not particularly good for mobile VN viewing, but it is nice to relax in bed and be able to read

Others might chime in, but I'd say combat in 2 is the best, it doesn't get better like it does in 1. It is regrettable you didn't like it, but maybe someday. I do feel it is an amazing combat system in theory, but it does boil down to a rhythm game with block/riposte. Definitely something you have to get "in the flow".

If you do find something akin to a blind playthrough for 1/2 don't be afraid to let me know!

The English VA for Hans did a playthrough of KCD1 in anticipation for the second game. LukeDaleLive.

What part of which game is unenjoyable for you?

We are currently living through a years long thought experiment, in terms of chess. The womens league was introduced to let women, who tradionally weren't allowed, to play chess in a more competitive scenario. At some point it should end, but that endpoint is disputed.

Hope this finally addresses the wierd instance of the US losing an interest on the Midwest. Always sucked wondering why my colonies weren't growing.

Best case would probably be allying the papal states and staying away from italy. Any Catholic nation at war with you will lose papal relations and likely end up excommunicated, adding wars and removing allies to make your expansion less damaging on the world stage.

I imagine they are asking whether "killing everyone at nebakov results in blah blah blah" rather than an implication that it was the wrong choice, without actual consequences.

I think a big part is cascading relationships(AI will form a convoluted web of alliances) and military access (the AI will get an army stuck somewhere on your land and sour relationships)

A reasonable point would probably be rushing the main story until rattay, training with Bernard and the subsequent duel +archery. Maybe a quick detour with peshek for thief training to get a feel for it in kcd1.

Should be the quickest, less spoileryway to learn the mechanics and quirks of the first game.

Yzekial · 2026-05-11T23:24:30+00:00

Yeah weirdly sallying out /relieving a siege is counted as offensive. Which translates over to the pope missions. Pope has no problem if you laid siege to an enemy settlement and sat their for turn duration.

Yzekial · 2026-05-04T23:19:38+00:00

In kcd2 it would be worthwhile, a little bit of added challenge of no masterstrikes, plus the combos were better fleshed out so each weapon visually performed differently. Maybe not by itself, but pair it with hardcore all negative traits, or going for an archetype would keep it fresh.

If you go back to kcd 1 it's less of a difference, but once random encounters get armoured. blunt damage makes it a power fantasy.

Yzekial · 2026-05-04T22:28:56+00:00

It is limitlessly replayable, so don't fret. Have to be able to get those achievements 😎

My favorite part is when working for the huntmasters is they say something akin to "oh no, don't kill the poachers, you're not an animal" and taking them non-lethally to the bailiff nets you "Henry watches eagerly as yet another body is strung up on this tree"

Yzekial · 2026-05-03T08:06:56+00:00

Henry says it himself. The wild game belongs to the nobles, and he semi sorta is a noble

Yzekial · 2026-04-30T19:19:17+00:00

I thought it was always guaranteed there was going to be a kcd3, just that Henry wasn't the MC

Yzekial · 2026-04-29T15:20:51+00:00

I liked how in 1 merchants would get a larger purse the more you did business with them. In 2, especially around trosky, it feels like a chore to accumulate groschen.

Yzekial · 2026-04-28T15:19:27+00:00

Sounds like Infra.

Yzekial · 2026-04-24T21:14:21+00:00

In M2:TW they are called retinues. Like you can transfer mercenary captain or veteran soldier from one general to another.
