The story 8 hours in is more engaging than most games I’ve played the past year since Witcher

I will get it later on. a fresh studio who are creating a original game with ambition and passion is pretty refreshing. I think it's worth supporting studio's like this who's only obstacle keeping them from being truly great is money. This game had a small budget but looks good considering and since most issues are technical, I think it will get better down the road.

I remember seeing this game on kickstarter raising money for the games's production. They had even set milestones for fund raising and for each completed milestone they would add a feature in the game like, better graphics, new voice actors, alternate storyline etc. The game sure has come a long way. I wish war horse studios the best.

Buy this game and praise the team who created this Masterpiece, they kind of remind Corporate morons on how to make Video Games.

Day one patch for the PS4 version is 23 GB. This is turning into a year for 'not for everyone' games which, personally, I think is great because it means we're getting less generic crap. We need more companies to self publish so they can put out the game they want to make without worrying about keeping it mainstream or filling it with lootbox cash grabbing.

This is a valuable comment. In the past there used to be much more of "middle-class production" games, where games were not AAA titles nor Indie. Those ended up being some of the best games of my youth, so I can only hope that type of production would make a bit of a comeback.

Picked up this gamę yesterday, played for about 3 hours. Even with the patch (23gb) bugs are real. I've mostly experienced glitches in ingame dialogues (characters popping out from nowhere, or getting stuck and blocking the view), also my horse wouldn't move over the fence which was knee high. Apart from that, it's great thus far. Combat is tricky and tough as hell, quests and how you can go about them is really impressive (you think you f-up and then you can Come up with new approach and make things happen anyway). Story is also cool and presented in a very intriguing way. And, The codex is Just a blast to read. No kidding, but 1 hour out of my gameplay was dedicated to Reading about peasants lives and toiltes in middle ages. I hope they will release some new patches to fix bugs, but all in all I am not dissapointed.

MrMayki89 I'm having fun with it so far. I don't even think I'm out of the tutorial yet, but I'm just running around exploring and doing side missions if I find them. I crashed literally as soon as the game started I went and grabbed the piece of cheese ur mother leaves you for breakfast 😂 but other than that I haven't had rlly any glitch issues or bugs except a camera bug while talking to an npc for a hot sec. I can agree I can tell the world is bland, so I hope something they add in the future are more random encounters. But I think people forget that even though this is open world it's primarily a game that wants to focus on the story. Which so far seems like it'll be really good. I love the combat. I haven't even fought the hard guys yet. Some weird things happen sometimes like if you pull out a torch it inequitable your shield :/. But idk. I'm really liking it. I'm gonna have to play through the game a second time and murder as many people as I can 😂 Ima be a good boy my first playthrough (although I'll probably have some slip ups with some of the more dickish Characters)

I have done quite a bit of research on this game. Interviews, walkthroughs, exct.. With a staff of about 110 people I am expecting glitches with regular monthly patches. But as you said, I am very impressed as well. For what has gone into this game, merits allot of praise..I remember how Red Dead Redemption was at launch. Or The Division, both games got better over time. I have an Xbox One X. I am getting the game later in the week. So, it will be interesting to see what the response will be until then. But I will not be distracted by the negatives..

Coming back a year+ some later, and even tho not many if any will see this, I'd just like to drop my quick thoughts. Story is pretty good. I like the characters and historical aspect. It's pretty cool. Index? Fucking great. Whole atmosphere feels very real. Combat has some issues but gets by. Graphics are still damn impressive for the dev size. And the first time I walked into the forest with no feckin idea what to do i absolutely loved it. Gave me a refreshed feeling of exploration. Can't wait to drop in a bunch more time. Currently 16 hours in. Admittedly a small but decent chunk is messing with settings to get a good framerate mixed with higher settings. Around 60-90 on a GTX 1080.

It's a shame it had alot of bugs on release, but i just started playing this game a week ago and it's the best medieval RPG i have ever played in my life, the DLC's were good, combat, story, everything its amazing, the game is mostly fixed now as i only had a few bugs here and there. What i think would really help people get back into this game is if they either release some sort of next gen patch/update to have people look into it again, it's a really good medieval sim and it's a shame only a few people know about it.

I can confirm this is the greatest game I have ever played through.

Hawk Strider I'd tell you that you should wait for a sale. The game has potential, but acg actually coped well with the many issues it has. Even with a decent computer (i4790 cpu and 980ti) the game at ultra runs poorly, and it's not because it has great specs, it's optimized badly, the world looks beautiful, but the character models are comparable to me andromeda, and you have limited ways to save your game, so when you encounter a bug that locks out your game and your last save point was 2 hours ago, it hurts. The game will be good, but it needs work still.

As a sound tech whose done his fair share of foley work and tv movie editing: the voices were not mixed properly. You hit the nail on the head. You can tell the voices were layered over the actual 'sounds'. It wasnt mixed together with, for example, a 'room noise' track (sorry for vocabulary issues, Im french)

There's also an issue where the background layer moves along with the camera cuts. It might be a bug or an oversight, but it affects all cut scenes and dialogue, apart from the pre-rendered ones.

I want this game to be great but I hear the patch doesn't fix all the bugs. I honestly think the game could've been delayed another few months to fix the bugs but why? We're in 2018.

Karak, man! For some time now I've compared your reviews to the big review channels. Using your own words, because "they're not 2 minutes long or sponsored bullcrap". Now, I'm sad to say, a lot of the smaller, unique and fan-supported channels have started to show they just need to throw mediocre reviews out and that's it. You mentioned this game has a long tutorial. And I know for sure that many of said channels made their "reviews" based only on the intro area. Lots of these dudes just write a couple of jokes and then yell their 4 minute reviews based on their 6 hour experiences. Just wanted to mention this, man. You do an awesome work. The writing, the humor, the delivering and of course, the fucking review!... are all really professional. Congratulations and here's to your channel's growth.

I think my biggest problem with this game is how it doesn’t respect you as the player. The save system, not skippable cutscenes, and terribly long tutorial makes playing this game an event. I can’t sit down after classes and play for an hour because I may not find a save point, I have to dedicate a large chunk of time to hope I found somewhere I can save at.

I’ve seen quite a few of your videos before... they pop up on my feed every once in awhile and I’ve always enjoyed them never really subbed though... after watching this I’m subbing... looking forward to your new content

This game is fucking dope I don’t care what anyone says it’s not Skyrim but it’s close to it.

Big open world rpgs are just more difficult to make bug-free due to their size and depth, as the more you put in a game the more that can go wrong, so I don't fault the devs so much in that regard. A lot of Kingdom Come's problems seem like they go beyond just bugginess, though. Like, there's bugs and then there's just poor optimization, inherent clunkiness, and bad design/game mechanics, which seems to be some of the problems with this title.

No idea why this is happening. I run the game on high settings with a gtx 970 card while using a ultra wide screen, still having a solid 40 FPS in cities and 50 FPS outside of cities. I mentioned the ultra wide screen as that one always costs me about 10 - 20 frames per second when i play on that resolution. Real shame not everyone get's to experience a smooth game cause it's one of the most amazing games i have played in a long time.

Bugs and performance issues really do not factor into whether or not I love a game. Drakengard for the PS2 is one of my favorite games of all time. NieR for Xbox 360 and PS3 got 6/10 on Gamespot and it's also one of my favorite games of all time. Maybe I have bad taste? Or maybe I just look at things differently? Up to you. I also find Witcher 3 and Horizon Zero Dawn to be the best games of this generation. So, like I said, think what you want. I think Kingdom Come looks great.

TWTgamer *God of war 4/new God of war game (God of war 3 had been out since 2010)

Thx Jeremy, I think I will wait to play my version until more patches have been installed. I want this to be optimal. Hopefully it gets better in some days/weeks. Once again thank you for the thorough reviews that actually tell me what I can expect to encounter.

Thanks for the early review man!!! this isn't the first time watching your review saves me from rushing to the game store on day one to buy a game that could potentially become the greatest thing I've ever played and ultimately find out it isn't.... PS: sorry about the lack of punctuation in that long sentence, hoping the three dots at the end make up for it :P

Hey! Did the review copy ( or the early copy ) have the day 1 patch? Good review to be honest, like always just find it strange that it was so empty.

good stuff, but im broke right now -. is this with the day one patch?

Something like 20 gigs of a patch...at least on consoles

Remember once you get a game cd with its manual at hand and the nice shining case and no bugs at all?now with internet and digital copies almost all devs seem to get lazy enough not to make sure their game hasnt got any bugs on the release day.Patches even if they succeed to fix a game's issues,they fail by default and definition to make up for a player's first impression and precious first experience of a game that makes it enjoyable and memorable.this is why i love cd project devs of witcher 3 and now the long anticipated game cyberpunk 2077.their response on when the release date is gonna be,they simply state ''when its done''.pure gold.ty for the good review.that was fast Karak.

9:17 - 9:18 Best bug ever... Light is shinning through his eye sockets and casting a shadow!

Bugs have put me right off. IMO it's unacceptable to release games that crash your system. Won't be buying this unless stuff gets patched.

Seems worth it to me. But how huge is the map and exploring? This seems worthy playing. But will it get support. Is it worth it it. Or return my disk and wait for sale?

It's been said that the map is about 16km². Smaller than Oblivion and Skyrim but similar to Morrowind. Although some say that KCD feels bigger than 16km² because the way things are laid out. As for support, most definitely. The devs have clearly stated that they will continue to support the game. In my personal opinion, I think the game will certainly be worth it after several patches because right now the bugs and performance issues are crippling the game(even after the 20+gb patch).

1 year later all most all of the bugs are gone its amazing as hell now

When you contact a hit there's no impact, it doesn't actually feel like you're hitting anything. No blood, no wounds from weapons, people just fall to the ground with a grunt after you smash them with a two handed ax.

I'll get this eventually, I was thinking about getting this right away but guess not. I'll continue Persona 5, Gravity Rush 2, Resi 7, etc and get Ni no Kuni 2 and Yakuza 6 in march and april

Picked it 3 days ago, just finished. Still bugged as hell. Literally forced myself to rush through the final act of the game, which consists of about 4 hours (!!!) of cutscenes (non-interactive), 15 minutes of "battles" in a crowd (so AI can do the job for you and you can go make a sandwich), a mini-quest to cram BRIAN BLESSED into the game and utterly pointless epilogue that's another hour of expositiory dialogues amd slow horse strolling. The game is structured more or less into 4 acts. There is the prologue, which serves as tutorial. It's more or less fine, if extremely linear and railroaded. That's about 3-4 hours of gameplay. Then there is the early game, which is mostly still tutorial, but now you can roam all over the map and ends about the time you get a horse. Then there is mid-game and it's mostly forgettable, until you get into a monastery (really enjoyable part of a main quest, where you are chasing after a bandit who hide in a monastery and you need to become a monk to track him, by far the best part of the main quest, despite being a bit tedious). And after the monastery quest is over, you start the final, 4th act of the game, that is just shit-tier. It's what I've described already in previous paragraph. It was soooo damn boring I was openly contemplating quiting at this point, because how long can you prolong before the inevetable storming of the castle. And then there is the ending itself, or rather lack of it, since the game not only doesn't resolve ANYTHING by the end of it, it's also blatantly set up for a sequel, despite the dev behind the game had zero guarantee they are going to make any sequel at all (still don't know that). You spend the last hour of the game listening to historical exposition, which, if you have just about any knowledge about Czech medieval history, can put you to sleep, because it's elementry-tier knowledge. And if you don't, then it's still boring, because it's simply a lenghty (35 minutes!!!) cutscene describing different political factions in the landscape of 1403 Bohemia that adds absolutely nothing to the game itself, as the main quest is at that point "resolved", or rather - finished.

do you have to be signed in online to play this or can you pay this while offline ?

A lot of times you can wait, not only do you get the game on sale in a few months but you will get the patches that fix a lot of the day one issues. So best of both worlds if you can be patient and with a single player game like this there is no reason to rush out for it

Hey great vid. Just a heads up, it's pronounced 'Brian Bless - Ed'.

Yea i hope it will be one of the things the modding comunity tackles first.

Any funny exploit is in the Kunesh's tool quest. When you knock him out, take his loot and open his container to grab his stuff.Then immediately go to sword practice and wait when you have a sword.Then stand behind kunesh when the tutorial asks you do chain attack the trainer and you whack him instead and basically make the lock on assign to him. Because the wooden sword does no damage, you can train swordplay and str this way by wailing on kunesh instead of the trainer. He is still hostile after you stop training so surrender to him to have him give up attacking you cuz unarmed fight with him is bad.

I had to laugh at the graphical glitch at 8:45 - the worst I've seen so far was Sir Hans' reins not going into his hands while riding a horse. Also very glad to know I'm not the only one that hates the fist-fight combat system - far too often you see enemies duck out of the way, while you don't learn until after reaching Rattay.

I think that game director Dan Vávra had too much freedom while developing this game. He just thrown all of his ideas and there was nobody to tell him that some of them are not that good. In many instances they crossed the line between more realistic and annoying (save system, every f*cking thing has to be a mini game, flower picking time consuming animations etc)

I remember certain rewiever (sadly, in Polish, so I wont' post him) pointing out it quickly becomes apparent why everything has this lenghty animation to perform. He noticed (and I've got that myself, since I played this game blindly and then only went to check reviews, being late to the show and all) that after playing the game for 12 hours, about third of that time was spend on different animations. Not just minigames. Animations, like sleeping, picking items, getting on horseback, loading screens when eating or washing yourself, dialogue each time you haggle and so on and forth. And his conclusion was simple: It exists to claim the game has "100 hours of gameplay". And it can;'t even do that right, since I beat it in 40 once I realised how the inner workings are done for a lot of mechanics and how a lot of things are superflous. Speaking of throwing ideas without any reason or sense, I'm still confused with the drinking skill. What was even the whole point of it? It felt so unnecessary. Just like the entire alchemy skill, minigame and potions (night vision, lol), mostly giving the impression they just wanted to get some of Witcher bits, despite not fitting rest of the game at all. And then there is this awkward split between obsessive """""realism""""" on one hand and oversimplified game mechanics on the other. So my food spoils and I have to eat, but then there are those magical pots full of renewable stew literally everywhere, so I can't starve unless I actively stop eating at all? So I need to sleep, but literally any bed and shack will do, at any time? Oh, I have a limited carry weight, but I can still carry 10 times over the limit if I don't mind slowly walking? My horse has limited carry weight, but I can overpack myself and the horse will carry me and my half a tonne of gear? My horse can teleport! And something that instantly broken the illusion of any "realism" for me was the torches, right during first night time. When I noticed those, the gig was essentially over. So food spoils, but once you get your first torch, it will never run out. Ever. Just have it inefinitely. Which renders 2nd and any other torch after that a god-damn vendor trash, in a game that has different perish rates for different types of food. What's even the point of claiming focus on realism, if the very mechanics that on surface level support it are just unrealistic as in any other game?

First review of yours I stumble across - EXCELLENT! Towards the end, when you are summarizing your reason for suggesting "deep sale"/"rent", you recount the bugs you experienced that led to that conclusion. Specifically, you mention the lighting and other graphical bugs hand-in-hand with the "gameplay breaking" bugs. I dont care as much about graphical/sound bugs as I do about gameplay bugs. If the former were not part of your equation, is your conclusion still "deep sale", or would your recommendation change? Thank you for your excellent review.

GreenGrump Skyrim delivers massive amounts of fun to be had around every corner of that world. That's what made it so popular, and still is several years down the line.

Good video, not played the console versions but the pc version runs amazing for me with an i5 and 1060 with most things on very high. Love the game world, the graphics are nice, runs well and the atmosphere, fun combat (Sword play, not fists), good writing and voice acting is top notch. But it does have some bugs, few times I have got stuck on things I shouldn't, there are some quest bugs and the fist fighting sucks (but I love the feel of the big heavy swords). Looking forward to playing more! Reminds me of Witcher 1 in many ways, some bugs but also many good elements to.

I think your critique was fair - I however have been enjoying the story so much that the technical issues haven't been a significant factor for me. That being said, I had to search forums for a fix because the performance was so bad as to be unplayable. It turned out to be a memory allocation issue addressed with a 'launch command' in steam. I think it's great, but I'd recommend waiting unless you're out of games to play. Oh, and if you don't have a GTX 970 (or equivalent) on PC don't bother. This thing will wreck your PC.

I first saw the trailer for this game when I was a sophomore in high school, showed all my friends and the excitement was crazy. Now I'm a sophomore in college, time goes by so fast.

I really don't know how you can review so many games. I've been working two jobs for the past year and have basically given up on gaming temporarily. There's a part of me that wants to take a week off and knock one or two big games from my backlog, but I've got too many other commitments. I've got this image of you waking up at 4 or 5AM, filling a Thermos of coffee and gaming without breaks until midnight or 1AM every day. I haven't even played the Witcher 3 yet because of the time commitment. Keep up the good work and try and get some sun!
