Kingdom Come: Deliverance
When I first heard of KC:D, I was led to believe that it was this really in-depth medieval simulator. Now having actually played it, I wouldn't say that it is. In my opinion this game plays very similarly to other modern RPGs, it just adds its own unique things in certain places (most notably the combat system). This game will probably start feeling very familiar to you as you get more into it. I think Warhorse stuck with what works, while still making their game feel different enough to have something fresh to offer. As such they did a great job creating a beautiful, likable medieval setting that in itself is something you probably haven't experienced in many other games. My biggest criticism however is that the game's narrative loses steam too early. By the midway point I felt that Henry's personal grievances had mostly been resolved, and the game offered no other story element or quests that really kept my interest. The greatest missed opportunity is in my opinion the lackluster development of your relationship with Radzig, which desperately needed a stronger and more engaging arc. That said though, this is undeniably a well made game. And while like I said I don't think it's quite true to its reputation, maybe that's a good thing.
Is this helpful to you?
