From that perspective a Studebaker would be a much better car than a Ferrari or Tesla and a Charlie Chaplin movie would be better than any modern day movie. Don't get me wrong: I'm glad you liked Skyrim that much but I got bored with it after about 40-50 hours. And it was certainly a fun game but it's not a KCD where I now have over 500 hours invested and still discover new things regularly which keep the game interesting. Yes the sword-fighting is challenging but by practicing a lot with captain Bernard you will improve and the the game gives you perk to make it even easier so you can take on a group of 5 enemies after a while. The writing, character building graphics and music make it one of the best games ever made. Imo this is one of the best, if not the best, RPGs ever made. But to each their own I guess,

I think the reason why Henry being a voiced protagonist works so well is that he’s a character that actually fits into the world. He’s also completely predetermined, unlike in fallout 4. Fallout 4’s problem with the voiced protagonist in my opinion is that they tried to let you also characterize him how you wanted, but with voicelines that’s much more difficult to be immersive

The 2 strongest points of Skyrim for the fans is that it can be highly modded, but also the fact that it takes place in the Elder Scrolls universe. When you love the universe of the game it makes it way easier to enjoy it and to tolerate the flaws that the game might have. That's why for me, as an Elder Scrolls fan, it's gonna be very hard to find a franchise that I love more than the Elder Scrolls series, because for me the love for the universe comes first. Not saying gameplay doesn't matter, of course, but it becomes easier to enjoy a 7/10 gameplay when you find the world of the game so perfect.

There aren't too many games where I develop mental maps anymore, since the worlds are so huge and empty and you never really need to actually do anything but follow the arrow on the HUD... but even now years later, I can still see the major locations and I remember where things are located just like I spent time living there. I LOVE when games really require me to develop my own mental map. I'm looking forward to KCD2. The next Elder Scrolls might or might not get my attention depending on how much I like Baldur's Gate 3.

It truly is an amazing game and exceptional in it's genre, and being a hungarian speaker makes it all the more entertaining. I'm only sad I don't get to play a self-insert which is a huge deal for me in RPGs, but I got over it with how satisfied I am with kingdom come as a whole

The world in KCD is masterfully crafted. Its a beautiful world to explore and unlike most games like this it actually rewards exploration in the way of secrets in the form of easter eggs and loot. If you know where to go you can literally get the best weapon in the game once you get to the open world map but because Henry sucks at everything it won't really do you any good lol. I love this game, its one of the most unique games i have ever played. The story is gripping and never feels like a chore, and again, i can't stress this enough about how beautiful the world is. It makes you spend hours just walking around exploring. As for the save system ..... the complaints are just from morons who forget to buy the saviour schnapps or actually remember to save the game, that's not the game at fault, its theirs. Also there are plenty of saviour schnapps to buy and if you run out of them its again, not the game at fault its the player for being shit at the game.

I agree with you in everything except the schnapps. As much as I love the game, don't know if I would be able to finish it if I didn't install a mod to save whenever. The thing is, I hate repetition and to waste time. To wake one day, do a bunch of stuff, and then die either because either I don't have schnapps, or because something caught me by surprise, so I have to redo everything again, sometimes several times, it is quite frustrating for me. I don't want to redo what I already did. For the record, I do like repetition of the challenging parts, if I'm dealing with a tough camp and keep failing, sure, will enjoy new tries. But let me do them from exactly when I'm about to start, not from where I have to do a lot of easy stuff before that because I'm struggling with the schnapps. I get what they are trying to do with the saves, to make dying feel more significant and upsetting, but another consequence for me is to often make the game feel more boring every time I have to repeat the more monotone parts. Also, luckily I played it when it seems most bug were fixed, but the game was infamous at lunch for the amount of bugs, including the game crashing or freezing (the ones I've found several times). Losing a bunch of progress for something that happen in the game is usually at least annoying, losing a bunch of progress because the game crashed will become infuriating really fast, and that will happen a lot more often if your saves are so limited.

the savior schnapps system is done aside once you brewed 1,2k schnapps with the auto-brew option in the alchemy tree :^)

Been a fan of this game since it came out. And I'm very happy to see all the attention its been getting on youtube lately. Excellent job!

There are people that think Skyrim is better than KCD? I hope i never meet someone with brain damage that bad.

I couldn't have said so better myself, this game is the first game in a long time that made me sit awestruck in front of my screen when the credits rolled. This game just scores so well on so many fronts. It's eye for history, it's fun little mechanics, but especially it's story. I can't remember a single piece of media in the last 20 years where I ended up loving the characters as much as in this game.

I think alchemy is one of the best systems just because how immersive it is. You are picking stuff up, mixing, pouring, just like you would in real life. I hope we see even more of this in the next game. The save system is also brilliant. Elder Scrolls haven't understood this at all and how important it is for immersion.

they are working on it for like 4-5 years now, its unofficial, but we know they are making a new game.

Does the game still has 3 secs delay before doing actions after you hit a button?

I had it on my backlog for a while and don't know why I never touched it. Then I was bored a few weeks ago and wanted to try a more grounded medieval story and booted up the game. OMG what a gem, first three days I put around 40 hours on a weekend without even noticing while I was a little sick with a cold. It was one of the best surprises I had in gaming in recent memory. Can't wait for the sequel where Henry finally continues his journey as a proper man.

Imagine living in a time so much deprived of good games, that if you say that a 2019 game is better than a 2011 game, it becomes a controversial take. Should be normal, yet sadly it isn't, and that tells a very sad story of how (AAA) developers just chase the quick easy bucks, instead of trying to make great games.

This game was/is astonishingly good. When I first tried to play it I was in a struggle, because of heavy demands with work and family etc... I went back to it and started over during a window of free time, and it all came into place. I think you need roughly four to six hours of uninterrupted initial play to really resonate with what this game tries to accomplish. After that you are basically sold and can dip in and out with shorter playing sessions, if needed. But in my experience, this game begs for a rather long initial session to make things flow and come together.

KCD was one of the best gaming experiences I ever had. It's rough at the beginning on hardcore but that makes it all the better. The world is a piece of art, probably the strongest aspect of the game. The gameplay is great fun. Thieving is very immersive and rewarding, the combat feels weird at the beginning but is sophisticated, the mini games are great and even the hunting is fun. I could just keep on praising the game for forever but here's what is best about the game: it's old school. That's also the reason why I didn't go down too well with the younger audience. It throws you into this huge world, it is not holding your hands. It expects you to find ways and means to get money. You are supposed to go the training ground and sparring with the captain of the watch to get better. With hardcore you will get lost A LOT and you have to navigate using your brain and finding things without quest markers is just the better fun.

I just started playing it, and I had the same thought. And it just further exposes bethesda. I recently played skyrim for the first time and could only do it for 10 hours. It's only considered good because people want an open world sandbox to immerse themselves in, not because its good on any level. With Kingdom Come, I was immediately impressed by the passion the devs had for the game. That is rare in modern gaming

As a Romanian, you have no idea how the whole game reminded me of my childhood. I know, mathematically speaking, Czech Republic is in Central Europe, but culturally they are like us, very eastern. Every beating in someone else's garden, every joke, every drink, girl chase, throwing shit and snow using buckets in someone's apartement, stealing windows to use the wood in order to build a house tree etc etc. I am waiting for KCD 2

So excited for KCD2! As you said, I love that Henry is a relatable young trouble maker who goes through a difficult coming-of age-story, and isn't just some chosen hero. While the game is dialogue heavy, unlike many RPGs there are tons of well-written side characters, and so many quests have interesting solutions outside of combat.

People forgot that Skyrim release date was Nov 2011 but Kingdom come release date was Feb 2018. These two should never be compared in the first place because it was wayyy entirely different generation. The fact that people still use Skyrim for comparison to several year later games is the glory of Skyrim's devs itself. (BTW I love KCD ofc, but it does not feel fair to me to compare it with Skyrim)

Started playing this game yesterday and holy crap what a game...what a story!!! I keep hearing ppl say that they hate the fighting and while I understand I also completely disagree...I think the fighting is so great and I can tell that when I level up it's actually going to Matter...I'm so impressed by this game that I'm at work right now and instead of doing my job I'm watching videos about the game ...if you haven't play this game then go try it because it's absolutely amazing...

Great game, I loved it. One of my favourites! I love the medieval realism of it and as role-playing, I think it takes the good parts of levelling in Skyrim and improves on them. A much better approach to levelling then Witcher 3, another of my favourite games.

Great review and incredibly accurate. KCD is by far my favourite game of all time and even though its over 5 years old, i cannot see another title competing with it for a long long time (until KCD2 obviously). The producers of this product knew exactly how to build a game of utmost immersion. I cant help but think being a small team benefited that. I think the one core aspect of the game that makes it so good is the lack of hand holding its users through it. Whether its having to search for a vacant bed to save the game, or to brew some saviour schnapps with alchemy, or whether its to search for the next task in a quest purely based on deacription, like "at the fallen tree, follow the river until you reach the camp", or whether its to learn how to read before you can complete a quest that requires the reading ability.... this review touches on a number of examples of this and ultimately i think this sat at the core of all conversations while developing this game which totally transformed gaming for me... and for alot of others (probably ruined it too because its now the only game ill play 😅)

2 things holding me back from buying this game: 1) The protagonist is not created by me. When I create a character, it builds some rapport between me and that character and it adds the game a crazy amount of replayability. I can imagine a backstory in my head and play as mage or warrior and in the next playthrough play as a thief or archer with another backstory. That adds another layer to the game. In KCD I always play as Henry, always the same backstory, always the same objective, always the same build. 2) No 3rd person. Unpopular opinion but I love to play in 3rd person. GTA, Skyrim, Enderal, No Man's Sky, Red Dead Redemption... I like seeing my character's armor and weapons and it gives me a better perspective of the world around me. I can play a FPS in 1st person, not an RPG/Action game. Apart from those issues the game looks incredible.

The reading skill tree was the most memorable part of this game for me. I loved it and the quest to learn

This is an absolutely fantastic game, I've played through it 3 or 4 times and will soon do it again. One of my all-time favorites. However, if I would change anything for the sequel it would be the combat system. I appreciate what they tried to do with the HEMA adaptation and the combos, but it's a very frustrating experience for no good reason. I know others may disagree but I struggled immensely to perform the combos, even after several playthroughs. Unfortunately, the counter-attack technique (learned from Bernard in Rattay) makes combos redundant due to it's ridiculous effectiveness. But even putting that aside, the camera-lock prevents you from controlling both the distance to your opponent and the direction that you are looking, which makes combat feel like an arcade game. Both are of course crucial factors in all forms of close combat and it's such a shame that they chose an aiming system that requires camera-lock at all. I really hope they keep their devotion to realism with by sticking with HEMA but that they also update this system, preferably with a 3rd person version. Except for the combat system, this game absolutely rocks.

As much as I love the game, the combat drove me absolutely nuts. It's mostly fine when you're facing one opponent, but useless against multiples, and you're in for a bad time with three or more because you can't quickly switch your attention between them. One mechanic I don't understand is how a strike from an enemy in your back will force Henry to turn around and face them, which seems logical at first, but is infuriating when you're trying to flee from a mob of people.

Henry's father was - as far as Henry knows - a blacksmith. Not a sword smith, and not an armor smith. Yes, we see his fater make a sword at the start of the game - and we learn why through the game - but ultimately what his father probably made a living off making was horseshoes, tools and nails. Not swords and amour. If you ask me it makes perfectly sense to not include such a skill in the game, considering how much time it actually takes into making a sword, and even more so armor.

"Masterpiece" is not enough for KCD

KCD is one of my all-time favorites, but I don't see any point in comparing it to Skyrim - they're too different. It feels like saying a Sports car is better than a Truck - well sure if your goal is fun driving, but if you goal is hauling lumber - that sports car sucks. Should everyone who like Skyrim give KDC a try? Probably. Should the people who were disappointed with Skyrim give it a try? Almost certainly - it really is that good. Just don't expect it to be a replacement for Skyrim or Elden Ring or any other game. Sure, you can compare graphics quality - KDC wins (until you mod Skyrim). But combat is way too different and designed for different purposes. KDC is a mostly linear story; in Skyrim, you can ignore the story and still have fun. It's more refined than Skyrim, but it hasn't nearly the scope of world size, number of quests, or - well, most anything. Skyrim's Lore is fantasy, whereas KDC is based mainly on reality. The KDC story is the game, whereas in Skyrim, the story is more of a prompt to explore the game - also, the default ending is stupid beyond belief, and I can't see why anyone would bother with it more than once - I didn't even do that much. Still, I get a lot of enjoyment from Skyrim because I can ignore or change what I don't like.

I absolutely loved playing Kingdom Come. But just like you, i first quit and came back like a month later, starting all over again. Now it`s one of my favourite Games of all Time. And i played Skyrim and the Darksouls series, for example... I appreciate your Video and the promotion you do for this beautiful Masterpiece.

I think this game is soo good, that it is it's own sequel 😂😂

It is really annoying how so many games are not skill based, and all they do is artificially increase the difficulty. So it doesn't take any skill, just more grind, which is just annoying, and makes players cheat. Why waste time grinding, if it doesn't actually change anything, and you may as well make things a little bit easier for yourself? In skyrim, or minecraft, combat is just spamming lmb, and possibly stopping for a while to use healing items, and continuing. Even Mount&Blade, a game with a good combat system made AI so poorly, that all you do is spam LMB anyway, and if you want to enjoy combat you have to play on multiplayer (and you also have to hope there isn't too many archers, and people using shields, because otherwise it won't be enjoyable anyway). You mentioned in skyrim players most likely just scumsave if they get caught pick pocketing. But you didn't say why. In skyrim there is absolutely no system for that, no skill involved, it is just pure RNG, so no wonder after being caught player just thinks "bullshit" and reloads a save.

for me, in my humble opinion, it's the best RPG ever made

the realism in this game is its biggest draw & they perfected it. one entire mission is a court hearing where you’re questioning the defendant & whether you took the time to investigate hours of evidence beforehand or not implies the devs created a scenario that the man’s fate literally rests in the hands of whether the player is a lazy shit or not. just brilliant

It would have ben better but there are many glancing issues.many of the game is pretty much empty and all you see is bandits attacking you randomly (which is very annoying as c9nstant handocap fights are so annyoing) it could have helped to have skyrik like random quests or random events happening in the world. So there could have been much morein the game .also there isnt enough dialogue in the game .some npcs should have option so you can ask them about a certain mission you are on or tell you where certain charcater is located at as i got lost so many times. I get a mission about a duke and i cant ask another duke about him or where he is locacted or what i should do next.

One of my top 5 games. Amazing experience. Very unique and personal to me. Such a journey.

Hi! Thanks for the review! I am also interested to play this game. Started it some time ago and only familiarized a bit with the mechanics before being hit by the same overwhelming feeling. However, like you said, I am willing to invest more into it. Now my questions for you are as following: 1. Should I play the base game or should I also buy all DLCs and start fresh with them? I do not know when they trigger and how will impact the story. 2. Have you played this on PC or Xbox? I definitely noticed you played with a controller. I am also a controller type of guy, however I was thinking to go full mouse and keyboard for this one, solely due to it's complexity in menus.

Probably my favourite game of the last ten years. It's the game that actually got me interested in learning about my own country's medieval history, and that opened up a whole new interesting world to me. I think if there's one thing that drew me out of the illusion a little bit, it was the range of accents from the voice actors - mainly British and American. It was a little off-putting, but I didn't let it ruin what is an excellent game. I do hope that Warhorse give us an update on KCD2 soon.

I love Skyrim as a game that's over a decade old. It pushed the boundary of open world game design and has gazillions of mods, but as standalone game the Witcher 3, Kingdom Come Deliverance etc pushed the genre to even newer heights

You know this game is good when you go to a town to learn to read and end up on some crazy adventure. You know, getting caught up in a mystery about women going into the woods at night, townspeople thinking it's the devil luring them, but ends up being some medieval naked witch hippie ladies. They're dancing naked in the woods, high on shrooms, Henry ends up getting high, maybe killing some bandits thinking they're some demons. You end up saving witch hippie ladies and learning how to read. My one issue with it is getting back into the game after not playing for a while.

This game is so underrated man, i am one who gets frustrated with the alchemy and combat but i always go back because the story alone is so immersive and the fact its based on actual historical places and events, plus your not some chad or Dovahkiin like character you actually have to learn to read was what got me, Still don't know how i over looked this game for so long and it was in my library for 2 or 3 years till i downloaded it i really hope we get a 2!

Let’s be honest, this game was amazing… everything is basically interact-able. Alchemy was genuinely fun to level up. The map looks good, the combat is initially bs but almost amazing once you level up a lot. Multi-enemy engagements suck balls, but 1v1 duels are godlike. The best part of the game is once you get so good at 1v1 combat… you crack open tin cans while wearing nothing and using a wooden stick.

You like KCD better. So do I. Nobody cares. The perception is that Skyrim is substantially better than KCD. Perception is reality in many aspects of life other than the stock market. I look forward to elder scrolls 6 and KCD 2. I win.

I wish I knew about combat depending on combat level PLUS LEARNED MOVES! I grinded combat level but kept getting killed by lower level soldiers and bandits. I had no idea that you need to learn additional moves from trainers to be proficient at swordplay. IMHO the game's UX failed to make me aware that combat was deeper than "x-level+y-hits" I agree that the game is a masterpiece (especially for those it just clicked with), but they could have tweaked the early game, if anything to communicate to the player that it needs to be approached differently than your average RPG.

I wish they would've revisited hunting mechanics. Wildlife spawns in at the same spot and frequently. And when a deer has an arrow stuck in it, it's not going to continue playing with their friends or grazing.
