Hey,
just want to tell you, that it is required to use an online account to play multiplayer.
So, your telemetry of the game will be sent to thq.

And, to start or load any singleplayer game, there is an annoying pop-up, you need to click away to play the game without the mentioned account. Which will send telemetry to thq again.

I gave the game back due to that, and that the game has still too many flaws for my.

The UI is bad. Try to put a spy in another kingdom...remember the claiming or Peace Conferences in Hearts of Iron II? It is pretty the same. Just bad.

The Real-time battles are, compared to Total War, just dull and not really strategic.

Nonetheless I cannot write a full review due to not having enough experience with the game.

But it is enough to write this forum post.

Best regards

If you played Knights of Honor 1 (2004), you should be quite familiar already with its remake KoH 2.

How do you know it sends telemetry to THQ?

For playing multiplayer you need to use GOG Galaxy client, thus your gog account. Sending data to the devs is opt in or out option which you can check or uncheck any time from the settings. Don't understand what you are talking about.

As for the gameplay, it's your opinion. I have quite the opposite one.

If you do not have GOG Galaxy you are forced to use a THQ Nordic Account, which is technically not necessary.

If you use GOG Galaxy I cannot say, if you are still forced to use a THQ Nordic Account.
I am pretty sure, that you still need a THQ Nordic Account, since the game is the same, regardless if you download it via GOG Galaxy or manually.
