Henry is the Narrator of the KCD Story:>"He invaded Bohemia, with a massive army, and began pillaging the territories of the king's allies. It is here, that my story begins">"And that kids, is how i railed the fuck out of this decent mill girl a few weeks after my girlfriend died">"And that, is how i stealthily killed multiple families to further develop my sneaking skills!">"And that is how i beat a poor villager because he wanted revenge for his son">"And that, is how i dumped the mill girl to rail a much prettier woman the moment i became a Man-At-Arms and got richer!"Would you say the same to your kids?
>>3665691Maybe he's saying it to a chronicler though
Because this is how we roll in slav lands. No bullshit
>>3665691Jesus Christ be praised
>>3665713>I am glad such a cool guy like you want to talk to shithead like me
what the fuck was his deal anyway
>>3665838He's Czech
>>3665838>back when you could farm stats by hitting his unconscious bodythose were the days
could a kcd thread survive at this dead board at leasti refuse to believe that nobody gives a shit
>>3665691>a much prettier woman in question
i want to find whoever designed this
>>3665691How does this game compared to mount and blade when it comes to combat?
>>3666540more detailed less funa lot of sticking to your opponents like a glue during combat and slowing down time during blocks and dodges.in my first playthrough i avoided melee completely and just kited everybody with a bow, which caused problems in the late stages of the main quest where you are expected to fight in close corridors.
>>3666544I dislike Bannerlord's combat, I find it too slow and predictable so maybe this could be good for me
>>3666548second game seems to look better in terms of combat, will have to wait for february to confirm
>>3666532
>>3666540It's a lot more schizo.>get stopped fast traveling by blockade indicator>walk around and see 4 peasants huddled behind a bush>they turn and we stare at each other for a good 10 seconds>I take 1 step forward and they charge at me in unison>the next 30 seconds is a clusterfuck of half of them running full sprint into me blocking my vision and fucking my tracking while the other half smack me>try and hit this peasant after they've swung their hammer and are mid swing>he masterstrokes me and a 2 second animation plays that teleports me on top of a bush>take out my bow and start shooting them>I press shift for a second so I get insta-tackled from 5 feet away atop a bush which puts me into another 2 second animation where god knows what is happening>now back on the ground but it's just 2 peasants so wait my turn to patiently masterstrike as these farmers are clearly masters of their respective weapons and can't be hit>clinch spam and strike the last one (he will get one more master strike off as he's mid animation of clutching his face)>fast travel and the same happens with cumans or armored bandits
Manually running around the map gets tedious after half way through the game, i couldnt be bothered to even do what i originally intended and see all the side quests.
/v/ is going to shit up this game so hard after how hard it's retarded fans have been disrupting discussion for every other game, it's gunna be a real unironic tortanic for once
>>3666987what are you even talking about
>>3666950Yeah, same. It was fun navigating by landmarks at first, especially when doing some quests at night like a retard. But in Sasau alone there are like 3 quests that will autotravel you to Rattay with no way to postpone it, which was already obnoxious on normal, would be even worse on hard.
Imagine playing any kind of Henry you want and choosing to play as a degenerate philanderer murdering thief instead of a virtuous and noble knight who rights wrongs and obeys the law and finished the game as a pvre virgin by studiously avoiding strange women lobbing shirts
how the fuck do i read the text on the switch lite it's too small
What is you opinions on women shit talking Henry for calling his horse in the second game?
>>3666950>>3667388I loved it all the way through. Gave me vibes similar to My Summer Car. At some point you memorised common paths, as if you really were a travelling knight getting familiar with his surroundings. Very immersive.
>>3667827have you completed the restless spirit quest?
>>3666445Chech'd
>>3666747>clearly masters of their respective weapons and can't be hitBy a knight in full military grade gear.
>>3666532I downloaded a mod that teleported me anywhere on the map.KCD was enjoyable with cheats. I actually did enjoy the story and characters. Gameplay was fucking terrible though.
>>3665691Is this game better with a controller or KB&M?
>>3667986riding a horse or just walking is better with a controller, typical of these kind of games, the rest i play on the keyboard
>>3667986>Is this game better with a controller or KB&M?It’s a first person game and so any answer other than keyboard and mouse is immediately wrong.
>>3667982near the end of the game this was just what I was thinking of getting. I like KCD, but I'm more respecting of my time nowadays and would prefer to just see the content instead of riding/fast traveling to see the local ""accidents"" (clear massacres and murders) and fight road bandits and cumans. The treasure maps were fun, though. Lots of red herrings and deceptive scales.
>>3667986Game is fine with a controller, except for the lockpicking minigame, which I did with the mouse instead.
>do monastery quest>game bugs out and I get all the info from reading the abbot's journal despite never breaking into his room>ends up looking like Henry can just intuit the other novice is a faggot by using his gaydar
the dice game is funny. Everybody is expected to cheat, and if you arent you are a chump
best dlc
>>3668212Its written better and with more effort than the main gamei would love to hear devs talk about it in an interview or something
would be cool if they made 4 slots in the second game untied to specific weapon types so you could have 3 guns ready to load and a melee weaponsadly doesnt seem to be the case.
i kinda want to restart the whole game just for johanka's quest, play it virtuously for once and get the rarest cheevo
>>3665691>dumping theresa >fucking stephanie
>tried to keep my Henry a pure virgin>a barmaid ends up raping him while he's trying to befriend the local preacher
>>3665838>installed game earlier tonight>got my ass kicked by this guy and had to call in backup from the lads>died like 10 times trying to save theresa from the cumans>eventually realized that I have a dedicated whistle button that can be used to get their attention, instead of running up to them and bopping them on the head with my fist (for some reason, using the sword I am equipped with is not an option)>get on horse>die several more times, either by getting stuck on a fence and mowed down by the theresa goons, or getting shot by mounted archers chasing meJust made it to Talmberg and I feel like a complete retard.
I leveled all my stats in the starting village by fistfighting guards then paying the fine and as they turned around knock them out and take my money back. Then get on horse and kill 20 cumans by riding full speed and bopping them with the sword. Then learn master strikes and rekt all the knights at the tourney for plate armor
>>3669647Yeah I had to metagame and avoid that questline unfortunately
>>3668619I hope they fix the combat to not be so floaty and animation-dependent. Every fistfight turns into a face-kneesmashing contest and fights with weapons are janky as all shit, 1-on-1 or otherwise. Still enjoyed the combat, but man was I getting sick of the jank by the end of my playthrough.
>>3669912canonically (in a retconning dlc woman's lot) henry saved theresa by smashing cumans with a sword on the back
i've been deceivedmerciful playthrough is not hard at all.im literally spending every large battle doing the same shit as always, looting everything that isnt nailed down and still winning because you always have a bunch of unkillable teammates with you. The only "challenging" part was when Hans got captured by cum-men and since i already had a horse there were a different scenario where they would run at you forever and if you run away too far the game would be over. Then i discovered that trampling enemies with a horse doesnt count as murder.
>>3670240Yeah, that was stupid. Just running past them straight to the horse is already risky enough.But you can kill everyone with horse charge and collect some decent armor right from the start.
>>3667955No, I'm not that brave, ha. But I did complete the game with all negative effects on hardcore.
hltb is wrong, main story is 25 hours, not 40
