Kingdom Come: Deliverance Royal Edition

I hope they make a second game. I really want the option to move to Skalitz and become an actual apprentice of blacksmithing. I want to honor the legacy of my blacksmithing family and make the best swords. Sadly here you get a grindstone and the chance to destroy some expensive swords, because Henry was a drunk teenager who just wanted to have fun at the tavern. What it's all about: In this game there is very little blacksmithing. In this game, there is an achievement for picking up 20000 flowers, every flower has a 3 second animation. Optimization: This game takes less than a minute to load on my janky old PC with the settings all on low. It is still the prettiest game that I have seen. This game takes more than 6 minutes to load on my PS4. I have not had any bugs. It has crashed once due to overheating. Praise: I have more than 2 days of gameplay time on my PS4 and I stopped because I forgot what the story was and i accidentaly told the traitor monk that I was looking for a traitor monk. I love it. It is a great game. How to play: Find some treasure. Make some potions. Steal. Enjoy the patched up lockpicking mechanic. Do yourself a favor and get the bow reticule mod. There is no point in trying to aim without it. It is doable, it just isn’t necessary and it will not enchance your experience.

One of my favorite games. It feels like if Skyrim was trying to be as realistic to real life as possible while still being a video game. This means that the game can feel slow when you first start and if you are looking for magic or something that can't happen with technology from the time period, you won't find it here. Overall a ton of fun & interesting though somewhat slow game with a combat system that is much more in depth than just click to do damage.

I bought the game with all the DLCs as I expected it to be at least good, many reviews praised it. Unfortunately I find this game completely unplayable. The realism in this game makes gameplay true pain. The worst thing is combat - it's hard to learn and even harder to master. However it's innovative and I would not have problem with it if not for one thing. The combat is centered around duels. Whenever you face multiple opponents you may as well give up. The targeting system makes fighting multiple people almost impossible. The realism in innovative but it's incredibly annoying. You want to save game? You can't if you don't have saving potion. You want to brew a potion? Well good luck with reading recipes from a book and then moving your hand to pick ingredients in good order. You want fast travel? Well you can, but be sure to be ambushed in the woods by some peasants. Also, remeber to wash every damn second because it is always raining and you get dirty really fast (realism duh!). You even have to learn to read in this game! The game is very good looking and the recreation of real places in Czech Republic is amazing. However the game is very poorly optimized and runs slow. It's also very buggy. The story is interesting but not very engaging. I find the main character Henry unbearable with his morals and complete lack of charisma. The quests are slow and boring - like life in medieval times I guess. Overall I don' recommend this game. A lot of work was put into it and it's a shame that it was wasted because of implementing so many innovative but inaccurate features.

It is rare to find a title that makes you live inside the game, with the rules and drama of that little word, that you can of course explore, but more importantly: feel. You die. That's a matter of fact. Defenseless and without possibilities to face the tragedy that happen around you. Then, revenge become your only companion, and you work hard to achieve it, surrounded by an hostile enviorment, wonderful landscapes, and the warm hearths of such charismatic characters. Well written, and well performed. You can see that the developers really loved their opera. It is complicated, of course, but it's also smart. Such little details, like the water flowing down the street when it rains too much. the fact that people likes you more if you are well dressed. The fighting style, brutal and sometimes confusing. The smell, the hunger and the realism. Step by step you achieve experiences with the rule of the world, increasing in reflexes, foresee and strategy. You can fight, explore, slink around, or relax in front of a beer and a rfat boar steak in the nearest tavern, gambling and brawling if you want. I suggest any new player to take all the Dlc. It makes your experience way more immersive. Enter the game with the idea that there is an entire culture and tradition behind it, and enjoy. You will feel part of it too. Downsides: -Sometimes the fighting style is dispersive. Enemies have the obsession to go on your back, when they are in great number, so one of them end up running around you like a moron. -Lack of wild aggressive animals is the woods. That would increase the survival experience. -There's no the Czech dubbing, even if the developers are Czech, and the game is set in Bohemia. That would have been perfect. Nothing else to say, except: Thank you for the wonderful experience. As said: it is rare to find a game like that. I felt really lucky.

I've only spent 9.5 hours playing my boredom with this game is due to the mechanics of sword fighting and especially the bow has hit an all time high. It's just to hard compared to other sword fighting games I'm played and with the bow you don't get any cross hairs like other games so its pure guess work on aiming, not able to steady your hand makes it extra frustrating. Sword fighting requires you to press too many key combination as well and use mouse compared to other games where the mouse is it. I get easily fumbled with it and I'm sure other will too. Left click for attack, right click for block, WASD for movement in other games easy as but not this game. You're required to use the mouse to move sword and click LH/RH for different attack modes and press Q and the WASD in the position when the attack is coming from, my brain or fingers just can't keep up with that many actions. The lock picking is also damn annoying compared to other game, need a super steady hand eye coordination on a surgical level. So unfortunate for my sanity I will stop playing this game., a real shame :(
