Kingdom Come; Deliverance

I see people attributing the outrage to a vocal minority but I couldn’t disagree more, it’s actually the mainstream that really dislikes this stuff and we can see in the news that game devs are phasing this out, if you doubt that the viral clips of Veilguards dialogue didn’t hurt its sales I don’t know what to tell you. They fired every single writer on the game. I think it’s just a testament of how longs games take to develop that all this stuff that is almost a death sentence to a game if not a very strong turnoff is still appearing in games, because this was set in stone in 2020 and 2021.

KCD2 seems to have okay sales but it ain’t doing numbers like it should with absolutely nothing else releasing right now.

What kind of sales were expecting ? It sold a million in 24 hrs and has 200k+ players on steam.

Incredible game. I'm a huge fan of the first one and this is everything I wanted in a sequel so far.

Seems to be a massive success as well. Over 1 million copies sold on day 1, paid the development costs off already, and 250,000+ peak concurrent players on Steam (doesn't include players from other platforms) for an historical-fiction game from an indie developer is huge.

I feel so lost in this game right now lol. Bout 5 hours in…need to make sure I don’t give up on this game especially after dropping $100 on it

Did you play the first one? KCD points you in the right direction a bit more early on (train with Bernard, patrol with nightingale, then hunt with Capon) to set yourself up decently. KCD2 is a bit harsher with dumping you into the world with no obvious path, though you want to do the early parts of the wedding quest at least to get yourself a chest and bed.

Naw man this is my first go round with any of the KCD games. Ngl yesterday I was getting super frustrated but I’m not giving up!!! Right now I’m trying to get into some wedding iirc. I was able to land the bed and chest through the blacksmith.
