I’ve only played up until Talmberg in the first one. I jumped off the castle and broke my ankles and couldn’t run from a guard so I called it quits.
The second game doesn’t tell you anything either. The developers seem to want the player to figure out as much as they can by themselves.
My suggestion is do the quests until you get frustrated then just look up how to do it via a guide. For me that was quite often during my first playthrough (looking at you Tomcat). Many times the game will tell you how to complete something via dialog but it isn’t clear what it’s telling you until a second playthrough. Luckily the game autosaves at key moments during quests so you’ll only lose an hour or three (lol not a joke) if you fuck up badly.

Oh I know. That was more a warning for others coming along.
You’re going to have to get used to frustration with henry’s athleticism if you play the second. My man struggles to run over logs sometimes. Other time’s he’s an olympic hurdler.
- Comment on Kingdom Come: Deliverance II Has Released on GOG! 14 hours ago:
I never played the first one. you get all the backstory in the second. I don’t feel like I missed anything but eventually I’ll go play the first. Maybe if they put it in the engine for 2 because the first looks like crap.

This type of comment is why people don’t try new things.
The second game is incredibly difficult and frustrating. I’ve got about 600 hours in it so far. The learning curve is very steep and if you don’t pay attention you might miss easy ways to do quests and you’ll have to murder hobo or save scum. Sometimes I feel like the developers are straight up trolls who do shit intentionally hostile to the user.
That said the game is very rewarding and fun once it clicks. It’s kind of like soulslikes in that regard. You just have to play it to get better at it. AND DON"T CLICK CANCEL THE DIALOG!!!
There is a place for every type of game and every type of gamer. If you are a condescending dick to people they aren’t going to want to try the harder games and you won’t be able to talk to them about how cool the harder games are.
For anyone who wants to actually talk about the game with others who like it come join us at /c/kingdomcomedeliverance.

a bad horror movie
No such thing. They’re all good. Some are just good for laughs more than scares.

Ms Kang would be kind of epic. Like Hela on steroids.

- Comment on Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 Studio Will Work On Several Projects Simultaneously, Insipired From CDPR 2 weeks ago:
I’m actually not certain if it’s Mansa Musa or another Musa of Mali. In the game this Musa is an itinerant physician in Sigismund’s employ. I’m not sure if Musa did that irl.

Musa of Mali is black and he’s in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2
- Comment on Kingdom Come: Deliverance II Releasing March 28 on GOG 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, that argument falls apart when henry just randomly moves the pick even though you didn’t move the controller. That’s the portion that I get pissed off at. Fine that he has shit skills, fine that the game has to make it artificially harder for RP. But don’t make me fail at something just because the game doesn’t want me to complete it yet. Just make it not pickable. When something says “easy” it should be actually easy if you know the patterns or method of doing said thing. Like how combat is easier once you realize you can’t spam swing your sword. There is no such thing for lockpicking. It’s just “fuck you gamer, grind it out like a chump” or break tons of picks trying to get the one fiddly rng location to unlock the lock.
- Comment on Kingdom Come: Deliverance II Releasing March 28 on GOG 3 weeks ago:
The one frustrating system i can’t deal with.
Seriously though, lockpicking irl isn’t as difficult as the game makes it seem even if you were picking modern locks. On medieval locks it should be a joke to pick them yet Henry can’t hold the pick still for half a second so it’s “nope, fuck you gamer”.
Ah well no game is perfect.
- Comment on Kingdom Come: Deliverance II Releasing March 28 on GOG 3 weeks ago:
I never played the first one but i’m a fan of challenging games. From what i’ve read after getting my ass beaten by single random bandits, the combat is better and more fluid than the first game. Fewer locked in animations is what i gather is the biggest change.
The one thing you really have to get in your brain is do not spam attacks. You will die. Your stamina is like armor in that the lower your stamina the more it hurts to be hit.
Like i said, once it clicks it’s great but boy oh boy was it frustrating to learn.
- Comment on Kingdom Come: Deliverance II Releasing March 28 on GOG 3 weeks ago:
It’s really good. Incredibly frustrating and challenging combat but good once it clicks. The rest of the RPG elements are amazing. Except lockpicking. Fuck that nonsense.

- Comment on "The insultingly low salary you would have accepted is still too high." 1 month ago:
I know you recently moved. Have you considered the pay is lower because the benefits are higher? In the UK they have universal healthcare which means that part of your salary which used to go to healthcare is now not needed. Perhaps that’s why they gave you a lower offer than you’re used to in american wages?
- Comment on PSN Is Still Down After 14 Hours And No One Knows Why 1 month ago:
I never played the first one. I just watched a story recap.
The gameplay isn’t janky just brutally difficult and unforgiving. It goes for realism above all. I’m really liking it but I’m only maybe halfway through the story.
- Comment on PSN Is Still Down After 14 Hours And No One Knows Why 1 month ago:
I’ve been playing so much kingdom come deliverance 2 that I didn’t even notice PSN being down.
If you like RPGs try it.
- Comment on Seasonal depression 1 month ago:
I don’t get what you’re saying. We have strong thunderstorms but nothing on the order of hurricanes or cyclones. The city I live in is called the city of eternal spring because the weather is always spring like. Sunny and mild.
- Comment on Seasonal depression 1 month ago:
Seasonal depression comes from the lack of light in winter at higher latitudes. My days are 12 hours of sun (+- 30 minutes) every day all year round.
- Comment on Seasonal depression 1 month ago:
I used to have seasonal depression. Then I moved to a tropical country on the equator.
Now I just have regular depression.

bulletsponge enemies
Your build is messed up if you’re encountering bullet sponges outside high level or very early level content on very hard difficulty. There’s dozens of builds that can one hit even skull enemies. I play a knife throwing build in my latest play on very hard and the only thing I can’t one tap headshot is bosses and mechs.

In my second language, yes. Sometimes. I just lack the specific cultural references to understand the phrase. In english, no. Can’t say i’ve ever confused myself with a sentence unless it was meant to be confusing (eg garden path sentences).
