This game is 120 GB? Does it come with the lead dev's vacation photos, his metalica albums and an illegal copy of GTAV?

Lmaooooo.

[@AnonyMouse2007]

I won’t buy a game that unnecessarily large. It would take more a day for me to download even at the fastest speed available in my area.

[@MaitreMechant]

ok so I got the game after they reduced the size and during sales and I must say I really loved it. I'm usually not a fan of tactical games but here the mix with light exploration and light rpg elements + the dark fantasy setting was really good. I spent almost 70h on it so yeah, really liked it :D

This is excatly how a game review should be. Thank you very much.

It's cool to see this series back. ~10 years ago same studio made Total War clones with the King Arthur theme and they were solid games even if they lacked the polish of Total War games.

[@Toshiro_Mifune]

i was just mentioning that, good games those, the very first one was the best, very immersive.

Really? What were they called?

[@Toshiro_Mifune]

@@michimatsch5862 king arthur the roleplaying wargame

[@robinmattheussen2395]

Yeah, I bought those when they came out actually. It was pretty cool back then. The landscape was very different in 2009, and you just didn't see that many cool PC games come out anymore. Hell, the indie scene was still in its infancy where I could count the number of indie devs I liked on two hands, and they were quite obscure. World of Goo had only been released the year before that. The PC revival hadn't quite begun yet. So it was always exciting when a developer came out with something new and interesting, and I thought King Arthur The Role-Playing Wargame was pretty cool at the time, though I think my standards may have been a little lower back then because of the general situation.

[@zetastout5731]

Thanks! Great review and you helped me decide to buy it. First time watching you reviews and I'm here to stay!

Thanks for the review. I’ve been curious to hear your take on the game before pulling the trigger on purchasing it.

[@Aeo18]

Thank you for the review, especially adding in the chapters.

[@Reclusive247]

Fantastic review as always! Thanks.

[@crozraven]

I really recommend you to play Valkyria Chronicles games (1 & 4 on PC). It's one of the most unique "tactical xcom-like" RPG in the market & honestly I am quite surprise no western games utilized such third person camera moveset so far for tactical strategy game design.

[@Dermetsu]

Great games, and if you're still wanting more after those games, 2 is on PSP and 3 has a fan translation on PSP as well.

[@dennisdavidov782]

There was one game with a similar 3rd person strategy camera - Mordheim: City of the Damned, a pretty good Warhammer game.

[@lostsoulltd]

@@dennisdavidov782 they are VERY different gameplay wise though

[@Biouke]

Not only VC are great tactical games with a bit of real time twist, the soundtracks by Hitoshi Sakimoto are bangers, as usual from the guy :)

[@Biouke]

@@dennisdavidov782 Played this one a lot but the multiplayer servers (and the dev studio) were shut down last year iirc? I think if the DLC factions were a bit more fairly priced it wouldn't have come to this, but Games Workshop greed killed a small studio again as the game suffered from poor marketing and, as I said, overpriced DLC for things that could have been in the base game. That's a shame, it was a pretty neat T-RPG with a pretty good soundtrack too. And playable skavens is always a big plus :D

[@ZenChubsy]

I'm always down for a King Arthur game, Enjoyed this one a lot! If anyone wants a game set in a Arthurian setting that's very dark check out Tainted Grail Conquest it's also a turn based RPG but with a "deck builder" card based gameplay spinoff.

[@KairoStark]

Hey, another Tainted Grail enjoyer. I think TG doesnt go as hard as this one on the arthurian mythos, but its still excellent. I'm down for more grimdark arthurian.

[@ZenChubsy]

@@KairoStark Absolutely, have you checked out the other TG game? Looks very atmospheric!

[@Dragon_Lair]

The game is now 49.37 GB. I'm downloading it now on steam.

[@BlankaCentral]

like it?

[@Dragon_Lair]

@@BlankaCentral It's fun. It's the type of game I enjoy. It kind of reminds me of the Divinity games with the whole action point system, and I enjoy the x and y axis morality system, where you can be a tyrant or more like arthur, follow the old ways or christianity. It's not the type of game that you can play more than once though. No matter what route you take you will experience effectively the same thing in reverse. Become more of a tyrant and you'll get the Black Knight or the Red Knight (great villains from Arhurian legends) but be opposed to Gawain or Lancelot, and vice-versa. When you go one route, you fight the opposite so you know exactly what you would get on the other side. Same is true for old ways vs christianity knights. The only way to get Galahad the chaste is to be a christian. He's not interested in the tyranny or the virtue of Mordred but rather their belief in god or the old ways, but Morgan le Fey can join Mordren who follows the old ways.

[@jamie6091]

Thanks for the review, I was thinking about buying it so this helped decide (I’ll wait)

[@jeremywootten]

Aside from the size and repetitiveness - I honestly have to say I really like this game and I want to see more DLC out of it and more games like it. It is fun, the randomized loot helps and with a bit of Mod support this thing could be one of my favorites of all time. Thus (for me) it's worth the price of admission to support the devs and get more of this kind of content and games. I do agree that more could have been done in terms of reactivity but I found myself surprisingly immersed in ways I typically only tend to get in CRPGS or X-Com2 with Mods

[@JewishJuice]

Great video. Thanks for committing to a 100% review.

[@williamjennings4427]

Just wanted to drop a comment letting you know how much I appreciate this channel and your review style. Can't remember what video it was but I heard you say how you didn't like how so many reviews have too much "video essay" structure for lack of a better word. After seeing some of your reviews it really makes you realize how annoying and unhelpful so many many reviews are and how much fluff there is to them. I walk away from your reviews having a very clear picture about what kind of game the game is and how fleshed or not fleshed out it is in various aspects. It's really striking how much more informed I am about a game after your reviews and I how I kind of just have a sense of what a game is like from other popular review channels. (both large game website channels and the more popular multiple 100k sub channels) Anyway, these kinds of reviews are needed in the space and you highlight how poor some reviews are because they don't just get to the point; keep up the good work.

[@chriszimmerman9737]

Very well said. I can second this. Very focused, straightforward and efficient. Its made it hard to go back and watch old videos I liked even. Always look forward to seeing a review for a game I’m on the fence about on this channel.

[@zaki6548]

Perfect review video, you really captured all of the point. I bought it at sale, I do think it's worth it and the size has also go down to near 40GB I'm not even finished with act 1 but the combat and the "go to this place, kill all the enemies" gets really repetitive for me, the combat itself is good but one encounter with an enemies is taking too long.

[@Sourmongaming]

Great review

[@118bone]

Damn, I was kinda hyped for this but the 120 gB size and the lack of variety in enemies made me turn around. Thanks for the complete review!

[@Leondragon06]

I got it on PS5 for preorder bonus but with the game's size will have to wait until I beat Rebirth that is coming out next week to have space for how big the game is!

[@hundejahre]

A little more than 1/2 of the way through, and story and gameplay wise I’ve found it to be one of the best games I’ve played in a while. Bug wise I’ve had one lock up that forced me to quit, and two freezes that resolved just by tabbing out and back in, and all of those were before the last 2 patches, no issues since. Maybe the sleeper hit of the summer?

[@_rumple_5199]

Definitely agree on the difficulty spikes...one moment I am rolling over the enemy on hard and the next mission I am losing two front liners. It needs a little tweaking here and there. Same with what is spoken compared to the text. They quite often do not match up...but overall a good game.

[@00HoODBoy]

dark fantasy and great story is what got me interested after reading fextralifes review.

[@Jasta85]

Really enjoying the game, although the game definitely needed some polish at launch, bugged achievements and some serious spikes of difficulty that were several levels higher than similarly leveled content. I want to do an iron man run but am going to wait a bit but some people were complaining about broken saves after some of the patches so I'm probably going to hold off on that. Still, really enjoyable game overall. Oh, and gear makes a HUGE difference in this game, as some gear synergizes really well with certain classes (gear that gives ap back on kills combined with gear that gives you extra attacks for example), but since gear is completely random, its hard to create specific builds.

[@JL-rj9fl]

Thanks for putting your cash and time on the line to help us make an objective decision on these titles you review! This wasn't even on my radar, but it looks interesting (call me a sucker for Arthurian legend I guess). It's too bad there isn't much to the combat objective-wise (beyond killing everything), but I love these types of games and I'll throw it on my wishlist for the future.

[@aleksapetrovic6519]

This game seems to be a combination of both of their previous game series. First one is King Arthur which has myths, morality system and building system, while the second one is Van Helsing with story structure, progression, atmosphere and exploration.

[@brettdreedm6742]

Good review 👍

[@travissmith9894]

I'm really excited to play this. love arthurian literature.

[@df6597]

This game is a strong 7.3. With a bit more customization in gear(actual equipment and models) and a couple adjustments to attacks of opportunity(like using ranged weapons in mee range), and a disengage for a reasonable ap cost (not sure there) it could soar into the high 9s.

[@OvrlordEtna]

Love me Authurian Lore and Tactics so I just had to buy it. Was sceptical of the cost of over $40 but I'm glad I got it. Everyone is such a chad and I love the atmosphere/characters.

[@brianburmeister598]

Is the lead character automatically a fighter/warrior?, or can you choose any class you want?

[@CAILZZZ]

I seriously really liked this game. The combat mechanics are very fun and good. Only did one play through (Rightful-Old faith) with Merlin being so OP that he would just plough through the levels. The only downside is that it was getting redundant at the end and is the reason why i didn't redo the game (Tried a bit of Christian-tyran). I pardon the devs because i know its a new small company and think they a great job with less resources and i see great potential for a follow up King Arthur 2. Totally recommend this game for people who are into turn-based tactical RPG. A good 8.5/10! Thank for the review!

[@gipsymelody1268]

it's not new but small also really has not too much experience with these type of games... also made very few games... but they made mostly arthurian games somehow ":D it was some problems with games like gigantic size +100gb but now just 39 with more contects and updates! the best thing is (for me) how reflecting the christianity and druidic-celtic religion in the game which is very good cause most legends and even the history it was happened

[@rileyrussell7476]

I steamrolled until Act 3, where the difficulty went through the roof on certain missions (celi/unceli). The game is horribly balanced. That said, I still enjoy it as a whole, but that almost ruined it for me. Great review by the way. You're my go to reviewer for RPG's these days.

[@kurtjensen5798]

Yeah I'm struggling here also, most of my people are level 14, and the lowest mission I can choose is level 17.. it's very hard.. weird you can't choose difficulty. Some missions I had to replay 10+ times - basically impossible. Had to bring Mordred to have a chance, but then Mordred is outlevling the others because I have to bring him every time..

hey man, about the originality aspect, isn't this the same company that made king arthur the strategy roleplaying game? a total war style tbs map with rts battles and a lot of lore and ingame choice with dialogue? the art and dark tone are similar, plus the morality system is identical, only the unlocks change. gonna get it, i liked that series a lot.

Great Review! Ever thought of playing Warhammer 40k: Mechanicus?

[@MortismalGaming]

It's on my list

[@chanm01]

I don't have an issue with competent but generic gameplay, especially from games priced at AA price points. I'm just kind of surprised more reviewers aren't listing the theme/branding of the game as a negative. "King Arthur: Knight's Tale" sounds like the name of the sort of movie that gets aired on basic cable in the middle of the afternoon because broadcasting a test pattern in between the commercials breaks would draw _slightly_ less of a crowd.

[@ZaperSynax]

When do you review Gloomhaven? :) It has the full release & story campaign now! Thanks mate

[@Badbentham]

Gloomhaven was actually the thing that came to my mind when listening to Mort`s review as well. 😀 Now, we will "only" have to wait those 1-2k hours until that game can be considered as "100% finished" . 😛

[@ZaperSynax]

@@Badbentham yep its similar! But better combat system

[@oxmor]

So I've had to restart this game 3 times so far because of some weird game mechanics. There is no mission restart, or mission/day skip. I've played one iron man (my first playthrough) and a normal playthrough, getting stuck because my party is entirely under leveled and/or injured. I'm not sure why there is no pass day feature but its completely fucked me multiple times. I like this game but this feature makes it unplayable if you try and play a diverse lineup whilst not focusing on power leveling. I had a full roster which was unusable, would lead to injuries and then a team full of under leveled injured men. Either I am missing something in my 60 hours or this game is fundamentally broken. Any advice would be great.

[@makidiaz3894]

Watch a KZbin named Werglia. He will teach you how to do it

[@gregorycritch2129]

My initial impressions were I really like this, I did when I first tried it, thought this is cool! Medieval X-Com! BUT there's a few things that ruined it for me, granted I haven't played it for that long but... - There don't seem to be any actual weapons and armour loot to get. Just runes that you can add to your weapon to upgrade it / buff + add damage/blood etc it's not half as exciting as finding a cool new sword and such or nicer gear. - The battles are very repetitive and samey and I've had issues (bugs?) where my units won't attack, despite having plenty of AP and won't use potions. - The other thing that REALLY SUCKED was the difficulty*. Normal was challenging but do-able for me but it was way too easy on story (to the point where the enemies can barely even damage your units). *A good example of my issue - On Normal difficulty, I had a party of 5, three of them got injured on a mission - game told me it would take 5 missions to heal ONE (and I could only heal one at a time) of them. FIVE MISSIONS - So why is this so bad? Well yes, you can pay to heal them in 1 mission but I could only afford to do that for one of them, which meant I now had only a party of 3. Bear in mind that the missions only get harder as you progress - so obviously it's going to be MUCH harder with 3 than 5. My current party members are bound to get injured now that there's less of them and It hardly seems fair because now I'm stuck in a vicious cycle - when the injured in the hospice are finally healed, they're just going to be replaced with injured from my party and the constant rotating healthy/injured units thing is enough to put me off the game to be honest, so annoying.

[@matthuck378]

I wonder what's taking up 120 GB? A ton of 4K (or higher) textures, models, backgrounds, etc? That sucks though. If it is just hi res shit, you should be able to only download the 1080 or 1440 package to reduce that. The price is another thing...I always wait for sales, but especially for something like this. 75% off sounds about right, heh.

@@technosamurai9171 If you haven't played either Xcom 2 is the best option. I like Knights Tale because it's a different spin on the classic formula that Xcom established but the classic formula is what made these games popular so I'd go to that one first. Another Xcom like game you should keep your eye on is Phoenix Point which was created by one of the original Xcom devs. The biggest draw to me for Phoenix is unlike Xcom1 and 2 it's possible to freely aim every shot you take instead of having just a set percentage chance like Xcom and I personally prefer that.

[@maz0t]

This game really hit the spot for me, even though its simple its new and there arent really that many games in recent times that fill this gap in the same way and it gets off the hook easily for some of the shortcommings for me. The biggest downside for me was that it seems unoptimized (the DL size could be an indicator for that) and it heated up my computer way more than it should have. They are adding content to it down the line too, so if they take a couple of risks and devirsify a little bit with that content like xcom did this game can easily go from good to very good.

This reminds me with the problem I saw with Xcom like games and Battle Brothers.... The story simply wasnt good enough and it became boring and repetitive... For me a game needs to hook me in and for me this mean making me care about it... be it through the story or the characters. I think most studious really forget that a good story is what makes a good RPG and even if this games dont fall exactly in the RPG genre its RPG like.

[@JohnnyTightIips]

As my first TRPG, I thought this was stellar, I sunk 140 hours into it before I finished my 2nd playthrough, and that was only because I wasn't good enough to play the hardest difficulty. Also really enjoyed the morality, as it lets you play a Rightful/Christian playthrough, followed by an Tyrant/Old Faith playthrough with different knights and feel. Really cool idea.

[@KairoStark]

Well, this time, I am the problem. I'd say that I cant stomach trpgs. They have to be extremely good for me to actually like them. I was hyped for this one because, well, grimdark arthurian mythos? thats a winner combo! (see: Tainted Grail) and I think both the setting and the theme are incredibly well done (I dream of a ttrpg campaign that I dont have the brainpower to create), but the combat and the pacing felt so unbearably slow that I just couldnt. I just cant. The ladies are my favourite. Getting Morgana was worth everything.

I disagree about the replayability. The different choices in team members with different skills facilities replayability

So, what are some good TRPGs that have all the things this was missing? Not games from before 2016 please and not games from other systems. PC only. I tried Fellseal Arbiters Mark and didn't like. I really did like Disgea 5, but the theme was a bit cheesy. I love that kind of gameplay though. I can't seem to find much. Steam just shows me deckbuilders and regular crpgs. I want to grind, craft, become super powerful, and explore.

If I have to choose between this one and Rome Expeditions, I say Rome.

I really enjoyed the game, it was fun to go through, the plot was pretty solid if not a bit basic, some of the UI/game elements could use some polish but generally it was great. My only main gripe is that at some point you would just rotate the same 6 characters basically because there is no need to anything else in addition the fact that Mordred is locked in a specific class really limits the gameplay experience to something very specific and tailored. Generally the game is over when you kill Arthur, the "endgame" is very pointless and the payoff is not worth it and very grindy, the fomorian part (which are really easy to deal with apart from some random difficulty spike encounters) is kind of pointless in my eyes.

Hate the washed out fog effect, wouldn't be so bad if it was only on the ground but it's on everything.

I much prefer Solasta.

I gave the game a try after your initial first impressions. Dropped it very shortly after the first few quests exclusively because of the clunkiness of ui and combat. Something that divinity and pathfinder do so well. It feels like games have so much potential but I have a hard time getting past UI, controls , and combat clunkiness. Makes me very sad.
