KCD1 makes you feel like you're growing up alongside with Henry - and that's something very few games I've played were capable of.

Now we just need some set in the different medieval eras. This is in the Late Medieval Era. I'd like to see some stuff in the High Middle Ages and definitely something in the Early Middle Ages (maybe around the time of Charlemagne)
So i live in this region and this is one of the most realistic game environments I've ever seen, to the point that watching those forests and plains evoked some kind of nostalgia in me
The creator of the game said he has top eastern European historians making sure this game is perfectly accurate to the time period and I would assume that includes the landscape too. He was actually getting flak from leftists online for not having any "diverse" people in the game.. unbelievable
I was impressed about how much effort the devs put in the game when the first KCD players started visiting the region and posting the videos in youtube. You can easily recognize the overall town layouts and even random buildings pretty easily. I'm also glad that the interest spurred from the game positively changed the region; in the first videos Rattay looked very neglected, but more recent ones show a little bit of a renaissance.
When Daniel Vávra tried to get funds for KCD 1, noone believed KCD. There are no dragons, no magic, it won't be fun. And here we are... No dragons, no pronouns and sequel of KCD is one of the most anticipated games in 2025.
I think the biggest reason for frustration is that it isn't designed for 1 v many. To have the 5 directions they have to lock you on, which means you are completely unguarded from attacks outside of your main line. This also doesnt stack well with the high defense of the average enemy, who blocks, parries and counters very capably. So if he's armored on top of that, your time to kill is impractically long while his buddies get free dunks on you from the outside.
@@masswave23fm you're not wrong, and the game is super immersive in this aspect. But, I think the intent of the designers was, that while dauntingly dangerous - combat against multiple opponents should still be dynamic and fun, and I think the combat system, as designed - does not quite deliver on this front. They clearly placed groups of enemies to challenge the player with such a scenario, but in such a scenario - you would fight fluidly - not lock onto a single target - the system doesn;t let you do this very naturally. Same goes in reverse: when in a large melee - enemy soldiers are essentially defenseless as you come around from behind and cave their skulls in with your flanged mace. It just feels like a missed opportunity that would've added another huge feather in it's already feathery cap.

@@EEAMD-co6nw well KCD1 was legit like Oblivion but ultra realistic. Super silly and weird NPCs with tons of lines that get stuck in your head, dark af things you can find. Well written quests and an amazing soundtrack. I first got into the game just cause the HUD looked similar and i wanted to get better at playing the game boy did it pay off.
That's one way to put it... I really hope they completely reworked combat for the 2nd game, combat in the first is horrible, even when it works correctly
@@Original_Edition Is not that bad, you need to learn the mechanics and Henry needs to level up some stats and skills. In fact, most fans of the game complain that the combat is too easy once you learn riposte and unfairly so as you reach level cap. Even in hardcore mode.
KCD is absolutely a masterpiece it had practically no downsides even the first game it was just that people didnt have the time or didnt want to learn combat since you really had to put some time into it, for me this was just perfect since i like games where you really have to learn something before you are good at it when i bought the game i played over 100 hours in just 1 month i just loved it that much
@@TheBangooman I don't think the combat was this bad. Yes, using master strike made it way too easy, but beside that, it was fine. The only frustrating thing was the camera lock when fighting more than one person, awful.
@@TheBangooman the combat really wasnt that bad i agree that it didnt look to good but the combat itself was quite easy you just had to learn a few hours so you can perform master strikes, a few combos and got you strength a bit higher and when you learn that you can easily kill 3 or maybe 4 enemies at the same time, maybe because it didn't look very great you also had the feeling the combat itself wasn't very good.
@Verted_ The combat sucked. Once you get the perk to win every clash any 1v1 becomes a joke where you just press W until clash, then attack and get free hit ->repeat. When fighting multiple enemies your biggest challenge is a borked camera that makes your character have the turn rate of a double decker bus. The action itseslf is just camp master strikes until everyone's dead. To me, a good combat system requires: a) Player agency- which is none with the clunky camera and unresponsive inputs. b)Variety - as explained prior , none to be had, same strat works on every enemy and they all behave the exact same way ala Oblivion. c) Spectacle - Combat needs to feel cool and spectacular preferably, and as both of you say, combat in KCD looked everything but cool. Again, I love this game, but it's important to not fanboy and pretend everything in is perfect, because then it will always suck.
Ha! Wishful thinking. Asmon is far to smooth brained to actually play a game like KCD. It doesn’t have nearly enough instant gratification, it’s a slow, story focused RPG. Also the combat is fairly complex and takes a bit of in game practice to be applicable. Asmon will get bored after an hour of walking around listening to dialogue and then immediately rage quit when he gets into combat and gets slaughtered.
Cumans are going to trash him hard. Rando NPCs are no joke in the early game, especially to a son of a blacksmith. Should be different in KCD 2 though since he's already a knight.
why are you preodering being triggered over something that didnt happen? Like the fist game didnt get praise it deserved... come on politics bro its not so deep and the wokeness lives mainly in your tweeter feed as opposed to real world
I love the developers of this game. One of the rare western studios who hasn't lost their minds. Loved KCD1 so it was an easy preorder for me with KCD2. I haven't done that in years. But i support everything about this project.
Every time asmon says he’s going to play a super popular highly anticipated AAA game. He ends up playing an obscure indie game with extremely repetitive gameplay for a week instead and titles the video. This game changed my life😂. This man got 40 percent through cyberpunk. Claimed to love it. Then stopped playing it. Only to stream a couple of vampire survivor knockoffs and never picked up cyberpunk again🤦♂️
@ I’m going to just assume you’re trolling. Because once they fixed the bugs. It was a masterpiece. Most people just held a grudge against the game because it released broken and even though they will constantly forgive Ubisoft and EA for releasing broken games. They just can’t seem to forgive cd project red🤷🏼♂️
Wonder if the 3rd KCD will take a place in Prague, If Im correct 16 years later there should be battle of Vitkov hill, imagine If we fought with legendary Jan Zizka to defend it
Hi guys. This is a fan from the Czech Republic. I'm sorry to disappoint you but there won't be a third episode. Prague is too complicated for director Mr. Vávra to develop (he said in the interview). Kingdom Come was originally supposed to be split into 3 parts but in the end it was decided that the story of Kingdom Come Deliverence 2 is an amalgamation of parts 2 and 3 into one big story that will be ended.
@@TheConor777 Nice to see he's being realistic. Better an amalgamation than half life episode 3 again. I would love to see Prague in the middle ages though before all the weed shops :DDD
@@TheConor777 Understandable, Id rather get nothing then ruining it. Same I wish with Elder scrolls 6 but yeah, skyrim was fun with bugs, this one can either save it but most likely will sink bethesda even more
“just use a crossbow" is such a true statement, thats what everybody thinks at the time Compare to the later muskets It was hard to aim, the damage isnt great, largely ineffective weapon that isnt worth the trouble unless in large numbers, AND its both expensive to train and make. Most people just go with crossbows
2:51 🤣 Well, to be perfectly accurate. It's going to be a completely different experience than the Monster Hunters and Diablo-like grind-fests you've been playing lately. In fact, I doubt Asmon will ever be able to go back to those average games after this. Yeah, and I'm actually only talking about KCD 1, which is already like half a generation old. ya, destroy me in replies, whatever.
Remember that time the woke crowd complained that there wasn't any black people in the first game? You know, a historically accurate game set in eastern europe. Doesn't that ring a bell?
Really. Guns at this exact era are basically only good for intimidation. Which works pretty well against medieval peasants called to arms, not so much against more elite troops. Don't know how it would be in the game, hopefully some fear debuff exist.
@@Volodymyr.Yermakov Fear debuff already existed in the 1st game. If you are beating someone, hitting ripostes/dodges consistently, they are much more hesitant to attack you.
It's going to piss woke game journalists off so badly when this game sell millions and is super popular... They wish dragon age did what this game will do.
It's like the devs know it's medeival times that 21st century issues and buzz words never existed back than. Kinda like everyone back than was too busy surviving than to worry about inclusion when your buggest fear is people you don't know.
KC:D had a pretty prominent gay couple in the main story, they were hush hush about it though because they didn't want to get found out. So maybe that makes it not woke?
@halosaft Makes it not woke because thry don't go about with a modern day perspective. They're gay in medeival times... kinda makes histotical sense they are quiet. It's like the writers are not ignorant of context to being in the Dark ages.
@@anglosaxiphone8246 I'm just saying, it's not really "non-woke" because they did actually have gay representation in the game. They could have made the game without having any gay characters and it wouldn't have made any difference to the story
Yes for this reason it can not follow woke fanaticism. First KCD respected history also. There is no reason for change it like for example Ubisoft doing very well.
@@martins2657 it is not just woke, I also founded some traditionalist conservative catholics, or strict version judaism criticizing game for ,,forcing christianity" or people not acting as Bible says. Funny, that objective (those what we know) history have hate from all sides.
@@radeksilar543 Omg religious fanatism brain washed their brain...it is okay but they should not force their only true to the others. Im glad we have a normal developers in the Czech Republic.
the first game's combat was complex, but not hard, not in a 1v1 at least. The difficulty came from if you bothered or not to go find a teacher to teach you the moves. It became harder when you had to fight a group of enemies and you had to be strategic. Also, like most of the open world RPGs, once you got used to the combat and got fairly strong it became easy.
This game is actualy like 10 times better if you are into hema, like every fight move you make in that game is 110% realistic (110 because its more like presentation of a perfect form of the movement rather than the reality of a chaotic fight) but still in this aspect its actualy the best in its class, the fights look historicly accurate
Imo the combat sucks, tremendously unreactive, enemy lockon can't be switched fast or responsively enough. Once your stats are high enough just press counter and proceed to repeat counter 20 times till allí enemies are dead. Combat sucks, everything else was great.
Actually, I have an apprehension about that. In one of the first trailers, they showed Henry fighting a few thugs, and as soon as the fight started, everyone quite unnaturally took a typical HEMA fighting stance. The only people that should be able to do that at the time were trained fighters used to dueling, bandit peasants and low ranking mercs should have a more straightforward approach to fighting focusing on pressing their numerical advantage rather than taking dueling stances and waiting their turn.
@@randybobandy9828 Yes, Henry needs to eat and sleep and even saving requires consuming a relatively expensive resource at the beginning of the game (saviour schnaps). People go thorough their daily routines, and if you miss the time a shop opens... well, you need to wait to the next day. And you can literally fail some quests if you take too long to do something or someone ask you to meet you at a specific time and place and you are not there. Moreover, in the first game you start as a literal peasant (well, a completely worthless orphan blacksmith son), you don't know $@##$, can't read, can't fight, can't hit a sheep 4 feet away with a bow, a random loser can beat you to a pulp in a fistfight and a long etc. So, your path of improvement includes learning a lot about the medieval world, its customs, culture... you even need to infiltrate the cloister of a monastery and play as a monk for a while. Besides all that, KCD1 includes a codex that gets filled as you play, and from there you learn that pretty much every major character in the game was in fact historical with very little discrepancies (the one of note is the main antagonist that actually died before the events of KCD.. which is understandable since Henry -a fictional character himself- will likely kill him sooner or later). So, yes to all the above.
I remember playing KCD 1 on the hardest difficulty when you dont have the option to fast travel and the map its just map no indication where you are, me and my friend we play together literally have to memorize each road even the mud path that dont exist in the map especially in the night with only torch that light your way, truly experiencing a medievel live Fun time fun time..
It’s so good. I played about 70% of the way through on “hard”, but then Warhorse dropped a bunch of DLC, so I started over on “realistic” (nightmare difficulty) and picked 3 or 4 negative traits to spice it up. Memorised every landmark on every dirt road and sodden forest trail in all of Bohemia by the end. No map or quest HUD markers makes it so much more immersive and challenging!
I don't know if you knew but the starry sky is actual sky of 1403 and it changes as time goes by so you can use the stars to get your bearings Also the Trosky map in KCD2 is going to be so easy to navigate. You can see the two towers from everywhere.
And no fast travel makes every journey to another place a real decision! Even down to time of day. Does Henry gallop around blindly in the dark, finding it almost impossible to navigate because he can’t see any landmarks unless his horse Pebbles trips over them and gets ambushed by 10 Cumans with way better armour and fighting skills? Or… does he just spend that 20 groschen on a bed at the inn and leave at first light?
@@dragondrop7334 it's insanely fun to teleport via getting blackout drunk. Somehow managed to go from the northernmost part of the map to the southern part doing that
the game is like the first one with upgrades and a new story. and it doesnt need to be more than that. the first game was already amazing it just needed to continue the story anyways
Czech guy here, also a cool thing about the lake location at 3:53. That place is actually real(-ish) 50.51794507517158, 15.20924211125663. The area is called Český ráj (in translation Bohemian Paradise), and is quite iconic for the sandstone rock tower formations. Right next to it is also the castle at 1:04 called Trosky (50.51684948527452, 15.231484323732195)✌
@@randybobandy9828 The game is based in Czechia (Bohemia back then). Rattay in the game is the real town of Rataje nad Sazavou. It's very much recognizable from Google Maps. The church and castle are still there and the overall layout. The Sasau monastery looks much like it did during the time the game was set. Warhorse worked with old maps and sketches.
It's like Medieval GTA but with a fully fleshed out combat and RPG system. If Asmon isn't going to play the first one he should at least watch the Father Godwin story sequence.
@@TheBloopers30 all of the above then! I liken it to GTA because it has no shortage of debauchery and hilarious shenanigans. I'm on my second playthrough rn and I just experienced the acid trip in the woods the first time after I got a step too close to the maidens and their ritual xD
KCD2 is one of the few games i look forward too these days If bethesda didn't ruin fallout after releasing fallout 4 onward and elder scrolls, I would gladly wait for those open worlds too but they're ruined for good. This game was one of the most immersive and realistic looking games I played in the last decade. The quests were so well written and minimized the 'fetch 100 this' in favor of genuinely well written dialogue and tasks and open-ended choices I can highly recommend it to anyone.
I work in the Museum fields. And yes "Reading" is a superpower. People sorely underestimate this skill. And the modern world wouldnt be where it is if Napolean / France had not decided to create "the modern public school system" in (high school)1802. And 1881: Free, Mandatory and secular school system.
I stumbled across the first KCD entirely by accident. Honestly, I think it was on sale on Steam and it piqued my interest. So, I bought it--and never looked back. I have been gaming since the early 80's (yep, I'm old) and I have to admit the immersion in this game truly astonished me. I had an absolutely fantastic experience. I tried a second playthrough, but the magic was no longer there, since I knew where the story took me. As soon as I heard of KCD 2 I put it on my wishlist. This will be one of the ONLY games I buy on the day it releases.
"Button mashing is a sure way to die" Yep, a huge part of combat is keeping your stamina high. Also, more optimized? Nice, it was my only worry... can you preorder it already?
Don't pre-order it. Never pre-order modern games whether from a AAA studio or indie or in between. We need to normalize waiting fir a finished product before paying for it.
@@RanCham727 why thought if you already made your mind up why does it matter if they get the money now of the day of they are still getting your money either way, I never understood this anti-preorder stance its so stupid now what you should say is don't spend money on prerelease betas with no release date
i never pre-order but as soon as i saw Warhorse Studios strutting around like a based giga-chad, clowning on all the *MoDeRn AuDiEnCe* and all the huge AAA loses of late... i couldnt resist. i pre-ordered immediately.
this is gonna be crazy, the original one is one of the best games i've played, it has it's frustrating moments but it's so unique that it easily makes up for it, the combat is easier this time AND there is a lore explanation for why that would be the case, amazing
Asmongold must play the first one fr,but please couple of essentials there are regeneration potions in the game so to not run around like a fool hoping meal and sleep will heal you, another essential in train with bernard to perfect block and a master strike so you can counter, after that is learned game becomes a lot easier
This is the first game I've preordered in years. Studios like Warhorse are what will keep the gaming industry going. They understand what their audience wants and actually value and respect them.
Loved the first one. Was great watching Roxy's videos on it. Can't wait. Play the first KCD. Jumping in later in the story when Henry is already a knight is not the proper experience.
You might not "need" to play the first one but I would absolutely recommend that you do for this one... The narrative was actually really good and it's obviously continuing that narrative into the second game.
The concept and main story can be quickly summarized through a video, but since there's returning characters like Hans, Godwin, Istvan, etc... one would definitely have a greater appreciation of them by playing their questlines in the first game.
I haven’t even played it yet but I’m 100% sure it’s gonna be epic and probably my personal GOTY. The only one that could maybe challenge it for me is Crimson Desert. Warhorse Studios hooked me immediately with KCD1.
I'm finally going to play the first Kingdom Come. It's on a massive sale for like 10 bucks on Steam right now. Like 12 for the Royal edition. Last time Asmon talked about this game was like 7 months ago and I'll be playing it before Asmon finally gets to it lol.
At least play the opening of KCD1. It will make the 2nd one make far more understandable about where, who, and what Henry is on about. I probably have colse 200 hours on the 1st one. Most of it was just me exploring the map. The landscape is gourgus, and it is almost 1 : 1 what it may have looked like in real life at that time, the devs took all the historical maps and art of that ear and made the most faithful rendition they could. You can go and see places and artifacts that you can see even now using Google street view, but the way they probably looked back in around the 13th century. Most of the roads are still the same as well.
I hated the first game at first because I was used to combat always being easy or mindless. It definitely grows on you and is fun once you get used to it.
10:51 ... that was one of the earliest firearms, and in Czech, it's called Píšťala (which means "whistle" or "pipe"). This word was adopted into German as Pistole, then into French as pistolet, and finally became pistol in English. So, the word "pistol" has its roots in Czech and is based on this medieval firearm.
I think TW3 and RDR2 nailed the city and town sizes for their worlds. KCD2 possibly being as good or better has me so hyped for it's release. Everything I've seen for KCD2 looks so good so far. I can't wait to try it tbh

The first Kingdom Come game was far and away the most immersive video game ever. Cant wait for this.
Agreed in my opinion it’s one of the greatest RPG‘s ever made and very immersive
Something that was not stated was the fact that each NPC is unique and has their own habits, homes, family, and daily tasks. It really enhances the immersive element of the world.
Reminds me of what was said word for word regarding TES Oblivion back in the day 😂 more likely to be more advanced this time tho
something else that wasnt stated is that asmon wont play the game
@@EEAMD-co6nw well KCD1 was legit like Oblivion but ultra realistic. Super silly and weird NPCs with tons of lines that get stuck in your head, dark af things you can find. Well written quests and an amazing soundtrack. I first got into the game just cause the HUD looked similar and i wanted to get better at playing the game boy did it pay off.

For the love of God PLEASE PLAY THE FIRST ONE, is so good!
In your dreams
if he was going bad on stream with dragons dogma 1 , imagine him playing the first one , reading nothing and getting destroyed
Well....the straw gets everywhere....
This game can make you really happy, but make you very angry.
that was such a good game and probaly still is. tbh one of my favorite games of all time
Asmongold doesn't understand that Kingdom Come 1 or 2 isn't your average combat system and it won’t be that easy.
yep, i think he will struggle a lot and think the game is too slow also.
That's one way to put it... I really hope they completely reworked combat for the 2nd game, combat in the first is horrible, even when it works correctly
Let's be honest, it's not great gameplay. But the world is immersive and the story compelling.
@@Original_Edition Is not that bad, you need to learn the mechanics and Henry needs to level up some stats and skills. In fact, most fans of the game complain that the combat is too easy once you learn riposte and unfairly so as you reach level cap. Even in hardcore mode.
@@Imman1s Game was great but letting the cope aside, the combat was trash.
KCD is absolutely a masterpiece it had practically no downsides even the first game it was just that people didnt have the time or didnt want to learn combat since you really had to put some time into it, for me this was just perfect since i like games where you really have to learn something before you are good at it when i bought the game i played over 100 hours in just 1 month i just loved it that much
As a dude who's played the first thrice and loved It, I can say without a shred of doubt, the combat was shit. Stop coping.
@@TheBangooman I don't think the combat was this bad. Yes, using master strike made it way too easy, but beside that, it was fine. The only frustrating thing was the camera lock when fighting more than one person, awful.
@@TheBangooman the combat really wasnt that bad i agree that it didnt look to good but the combat itself was quite easy you just had to learn a few hours so you can perform master strikes, a few combos and got you strength a bit higher and when you learn that you can easily kill 3 or maybe 4 enemies at the same time, maybe because it didn't look very great you also had the feeling the combat itself wasn't very good.
@Verted_ The combat sucked. Once you get the perk to win every clash any 1v1 becomes a joke where you just press W until clash, then attack and get free hit ->repeat.
When fighting multiple enemies your biggest challenge is a borked camera that makes your character have the turn rate of a double decker bus. The action itseslf is just camp master strikes until everyone's dead.
To me, a good combat system requires:
a) Player agency- which is none with the clunky camera and unresponsive inputs.
b)Variety - as explained prior , none to be had, same strat works on every enemy and they all behave the exact same way ala Oblivion.
c) Spectacle - Combat needs to feel cool and spectacular preferably, and as both of you say, combat in KCD looked everything but cool.
Again, I love this game, but it's important to not fanboy and pretend everything in is perfect, because then it will always suck.
@@TheBangooman sounds like you played it too much
KCD is genuinely one of the most immersive video games ever made. I’m sure this sequel will be a serious GOTY contender.
Doubt it. The combat system will hold it back.
@@go4stros253I feel like if Elden Ring can get it, anything is possible
Kcd is such an under rated game.
It really is. This video got me to wanting to replay the first game. About to go start it up.
See when it released, this was true. But now I'm glad that a majority of people either experienced or have heard how good KCD is.
I agree. Many people got frustrated with the combat after an hour and quit forever.
Memes aside, I really hope Asmon plays this game beginning to end and takes his time to actually understand everything.
This game is not made for people like asmon he is gonna quit after one stream
Ha! Wishful thinking. Asmon is far to smooth brained to actually play a game like KCD. It doesn’t have nearly enough instant gratification, it’s a slow, story focused RPG. Also the combat is fairly complex and takes a bit of in game practice to be applicable. Asmon will get bored after an hour of walking around listening to dialogue and then immediately rage quit when he gets into combat and gets slaughtered.
hahaha are we talking about the same person here ? what single player games did he finish ? exactly
Yeah, like that has ever happened before.
Cumans are going to trash him hard. Rando NPCs are no joke in the early game, especially to a son of a blacksmith. Should be different in KCD 2 though since he's already a knight.
"But where are all the black people...?" 🥺 You just wait, someone's gonna say it at some point, some unhinged kotaku rant article or something.
They said that seven years ago.
They literally are already on Twitter giving the game Creator shit for not having any "POC" or "diversity" they are unhinged
They'll say it with their 7/10
In their respective countries
why are you preodering being triggered over something that didnt happen? Like the fist game didnt get praise it deserved... come on politics bro its not so deep and the wokeness lives mainly in your tweeter feed as opposed to real world
I love the developers of this game. One of the rare western studios who hasn't lost their minds. Loved KCD1 so it was an easy preorder for me with KCD2. I haven't done that in years. But i support everything about this project.
the fact they started with only like 20 people now they have 200 that worked on it and the last game was game of the year one time
Every time asmon says he’s going to play a super popular highly anticipated AAA game. He ends up playing an obscure indie game with extremely repetitive gameplay for a week instead and titles the video. This game changed my life😂. This man got 40 percent through cyberpunk. Claimed to love it. Then stopped playing it. Only to stream a couple of vampire survivor knockoffs and never picked up cyberpunk again🤦♂️
He doesn’t actually like these games, he just milks them for hype videos and easy views. He’ll do the same with KCD2.
but cyperpunk actually really sucks, so......
@ I’m going to just assume you’re trolling. Because once they fixed the bugs. It was a masterpiece. Most people just held a grudge against the game because it released broken and even though they will constantly forgive Ubisoft and EA for releasing broken games. They just can’t seem to forgive cd project red🤷🏼♂️
@@prickly_procyonidsits fine as long as i get some laughs out of it
@robez457 So fcking true. Thanks for this comment 😃
@prickly_procyonids Also true imho
They are sooooo cooking with this series, by the time we get Henry gets to Prague. It will be a full blown medieval warfare
Wonder if the 3rd KCD will take a place in Prague, If Im correct 16 years later there should be battle of Vitkov hill, imagine If we fought with legendary Jan Zizka to defend it
Hi guys. This is a fan from the Czech Republic. I'm sorry to disappoint you but there won't be a third episode. Prague is too complicated for director Mr. Vávra to develop (he said in the interview). Kingdom Come was originally supposed to be split into 3 parts but in the end it was decided that the story of Kingdom Come Deliverence 2 is an amalgamation of parts 2 and 3 into one big story that will be ended.
@@TheConor777 Nice to see he's being realistic. Better an amalgamation than half life episode 3 again. I would love to see Prague in the middle ages though before all the weed shops :DDD
@@TheConor777 that;s too bad, but i guess that we just have to make do with what we can realistically get
@@TheConor777 Understandable, Id rather get nothing then ruining it. Same I wish with Elder scrolls 6 but yeah, skyrim was fun with bugs, this one can either save it but most likely will sink bethesda even more
IGN just proved miracles exist : they made a decent review
This is still review of demo, they just started released demo gameplay recording.
IGN will still 7/10 it for lack of SBI
IGN does occasionally make good reviews. Check out the one for Dwarf Fortress.
“just use a crossbow" is such a true statement, thats what everybody thinks at the time
Compare to the later muskets
It was hard to aim, the damage isnt great, largely ineffective weapon that isnt worth the trouble unless in large numbers, AND its both expensive to train and make.
Most people just go with crossbows
and its silent, and mostly banned already by that time in most european countries by civilian use
2:51 🤣 Well, to be perfectly accurate. It's going to be a completely different experience than the Monster Hunters and Diablo-like grind-fests you've been playing lately. In fact, I doubt Asmon will ever be able to go back to those average games after this. Yeah, and I'm actually only talking about KCD 1, which is already like half a generation old.

Kingdom Based: Deliverance
After cyberpunk, i don't think asmongold is even gonna finish the first game
Of course. He won’t make it past the tutorial with this one.
Remember that time the woke crowd complained that there wasn't any black people in the first game? You know, a historically accurate game set in eastern europe. Doesn't that ring a bell?
Asmongold: I think the guns would be a pre-fight opener.
Devs: See? This guy is our intended audience.
Really. Guns at this exact era are basically only good for intimidation. Which works pretty well against medieval peasants called to arms, not so much against more elite troops. Don't know how it would be in the game, hopefully some fear debuff exist.
@@Volodymyr.Yermakov Fear debuff already existed in the 1st game. If you are beating someone, hitting ripostes/dodges consistently, they are much more hesitant to attack you.
This non-woke medival European RPG has the freedom of choice that i'm looking for.
It's going to piss woke game journalists off so badly when this game sell millions and is super popular... They wish dragon age did what this game will do.
It's like the devs know it's medeival times that 21st century issues and buzz words never existed back than. Kinda like everyone back than was too busy surviving than to worry about inclusion when your buggest fear is people you don't know.
KC:D had a pretty prominent gay couple in the main story, they were hush hush about it though because they didn't want to get found out. So maybe that makes it not woke?
@halosaft Makes it not woke because thry don't go about with a modern day perspective. They're gay in medeival times... kinda makes histotical sense they are quiet. It's like the writers are not ignorant of context to being in the Dark ages.
@@anglosaxiphone8246 I'm just saying, it's not really "non-woke" because they did actually have gay representation in the game. They could have made the game without having any gay characters and it wouldn't have made any difference to the story
I just love how historically accurate they try to be.
Yes for this reason it can not follow woke fanaticism. First KCD respected history also. There is no reason for change it like for example Ubisoft doing very well.
@@martins2657 it is not just woke, I also founded some traditionalist conservative catholics, or strict version judaism criticizing game for ,,forcing christianity" or people not acting as Bible says. Funny, that objective (those what we know) history have hate from all sides.
@@radeksilar543 Omg religious fanatism brain washed their brain...it is okay but they should not force their only true to the others. Im glad we have a normal developers in the Czech Republic.
The original KCD already had amazing graphics too
I've never had a video game motivate me to visit a foreign country until KCD came out. ❤
The forest and the rock formations ore spot on, I'm from that region. All the herbs are where I'd go looking for them in real life too.
the first game's combat was complex, but not hard, not in a 1v1 at least. The difficulty came from if you bothered or not to go find a teacher to teach you the moves. It became harder when you had to fight a group of enemies and you had to be strategic. Also, like most of the open world RPGs, once you got used to the combat and got fairly strong it became easy.
I really love KCD because of its historical fidelity. It's so cool to play a non-fantasy RPG that takes place in medieval Bohemia.
Oh I can already see him play it one-time on-stream and go:
*"Yeah, I think I'll play the rest off-stream."*
He is not gonna play this omg.
PLEASE!!! PLAY THE FIRST GAME ALREADY IT'S ABOUT DAMN TIME YOU PLAY THE GAME!
IGN is gonna be like
"yeah it's a Masterpiece.
6/10."
This game is actualy like 10 times better if you are into hema, like every fight move you make in that game is 110% realistic (110 because its more like presentation of a perfect form of the movement rather than the reality of a chaotic fight) but still in this aspect its actualy the best in its class, the fights look historicly accurate
So it's basically like a medieval simulator... The game is completely historically accurate too.
Imo the combat sucks, tremendously unreactive, enemy lockon can't be switched fast or responsively enough. Once your stats are high enough just press counter and proceed to repeat counter 20 times till allí enemies are dead. Combat sucks, everything else was great.
Actually, I have an apprehension about that. In one of the first trailers, they showed Henry fighting a few thugs, and as soon as the fight started, everyone quite unnaturally took a typical HEMA fighting stance. The only people that should be able to do that at the time were trained fighters used to dueling, bandit peasants and low ranking mercs should have a more straightforward approach to fighting focusing on pressing their numerical advantage rather than taking dueling stances and waiting their turn.
@@randybobandy9828 Yes, Henry needs to eat and sleep and even saving requires consuming a relatively expensive resource at the beginning of the game (saviour schnaps). People go thorough their daily routines, and if you miss the time a shop opens... well, you need to wait to the next day. And you can literally fail some quests if you take too long to do something or someone ask you to meet you at a specific time and place and you are not there.
Moreover, in the first game you start as a literal peasant (well, a completely worthless orphan blacksmith son), you don't know $@##$, can't read, can't fight, can't hit a sheep 4 feet away with a bow, a random loser can beat you to a pulp in a fistfight and a long etc. So, your path of improvement includes learning a lot about the medieval world, its customs, culture... you even need to infiltrate the cloister of a monastery and play as a monk for a while.
Besides all that, KCD1 includes a codex that gets filled as you play, and from there you learn that pretty much every major character in the game was in fact historical with very little discrepancies (the one of note is the main antagonist that actually died before the events of KCD.. which is understandable since Henry -a fictional character himself- will likely kill him sooner or later).
So, yes to all the above.
@TheBangooman im talking about the visual of it, not the details of the mechanics
I remember playing KCD 1 on the hardest difficulty when you dont have the option to fast travel and the map its just map no indication where you are, me and my friend we play together literally have to memorize each road even the mud path that dont exist in the map especially in the night with only torch that light your way, truly experiencing a medievel live
Fun time fun time..
Oh shit, that sounds fun
If I end up buying the game in the next week or so, the credit is yours. _This_ sold it to me
It’s so good. I played about 70% of the way through on “hard”, but then Warhorse dropped a bunch of DLC, so I started over on “realistic” (nightmare difficulty) and picked 3 or 4 negative traits to spice it up. Memorised every landmark on every dirt road and sodden forest trail in all of Bohemia by the end. No map or quest HUD markers makes it so much more immersive and challenging!
I don't know if you knew but the starry sky is actual sky of 1403 and it changes as time goes by so you can use the stars to get your bearings
Also the Trosky map in KCD2 is going to be so easy to navigate. You can see the two towers from everywhere.
And no fast travel makes every journey to another place a real decision! Even down to time of day. Does Henry gallop around blindly in the dark, finding it almost impossible to navigate because he can’t see any landmarks unless his horse Pebbles trips over them and gets ambushed by 10 Cumans with way better armour and fighting skills? Or… does he just spend that 20 groschen on a bed at the inn and leave at first light?
@@dragondrop7334 it's insanely fun to teleport via getting blackout drunk. Somehow managed to go from the northernmost part of the map to the southern part doing that
the game is like the first one with upgrades and a new story. and it doesnt need to be more than that. the first game was already amazing it just needed to continue the story anyways
This game is so fucking immersive man , felt like I was actually a knight who is living in medival europe
KCD1 is really immersive. Making you feel like a peasant without skill and then a master swordsman knight
the first KCD is on sale now for like $6 and its one of the best games I've played.

KCD2 is one of the few games i look forward too these days
If bethesda didn't ruin fallout after releasing fallout 4 onward and elder scrolls, I would gladly wait for those open worlds too but they're ruined for good.
This game was one of the most immersive and realistic looking games I played in the last decade.
The quests were so well written and minimized the 'fetch 100 this' in favor of genuinely well written dialogue and tasks and open-ended choices
I can highly recommend it to anyone.
I work in the Museum fields. And yes "Reading" is a superpower. People sorely underestimate this skill. And the modern world wouldnt be where it is if Napolean / France had not decided to create "the modern public school system" in (high school)1802. And 1881: Free, Mandatory and secular school system.
I stumbled across the first KCD entirely by accident. Honestly, I think it was on sale on Steam and it piqued my interest. So, I bought it--and never looked back. I have been gaming since the early 80's (yep, I'm old) and I have to admit the immersion in this game truly astonished me. I had an absolutely fantastic experience. I tried a second playthrough, but the magic was no longer there, since I knew where the story took me. As soon as I heard of KCD 2 I put it on my wishlist. This will be one of the ONLY games I buy on the day it releases.

Loved the first one. Was great watching Roxy's videos on it. Can't wait.
Play the first KCD. Jumping in later in the story when Henry is already a knight is not the proper experience.
8:43 domestic violence build.
You might not "need" to play the first one but I would absolutely recommend that you do for this one... The narrative was actually really good and it's obviously continuing that narrative into the second game.
The concept and main story can be quickly summarized through a video, but since there's returning characters like Hans, Godwin, Istvan, etc... one would definitely have a greater appreciation of them by playing their questlines in the first game.
I don't think that Asmon would like the first one. It's really slow from the start and you have to listen and learn. :D

If the americans demand respect then they should show respect to people making game like this...
a balanced offer
At least play the opening of KCD1. It will make the 2nd one make far more understandable about where, who, and what Henry is on about. I probably have colse 200 hours on the 1st one. Most of it was just me exploring the map. The landscape is gourgus, and it is almost 1 : 1 what it may have looked like in real life at that time, the devs took all the historical maps and art of that ear and made the most faithful rendition they could. You can go and see places and artifacts that you can see even now using Google street view, but the way they probably looked back in around the 13th century. Most of the roads are still the same as well.
They said this will be the real KCD we should have gotten.
And KCD1 is already extremely good
@BamberdittoPingpong I wouldn't say extremely good. I would say it was good.
I hated the first game at first because I was used to combat always being easy or mindless. It definitely grows on you and is fun once you get used to it.
This will be better than anything next year, including MH. The only competition might be GTA6, but that will depend on if they woked it up or not.

Full drinking perk tree, this is how you know character is Czekh
10:51 ... that was one of the earliest firearms, and in Czech, it's called Píšťala (which means "whistle" or "pipe"). This word was adopted into German as Pistole, then into French as pistolet, and finally became pistol in English.
So, the word "pistol" has its roots in Czech and is based on this medieval firearm.
I feel quite hungry.

The combat feels REALLY good when it clicks. I assume that happens faster in KCD2, so lower barrier to entry.
