Hey! I’m Luke Dale (Hans from the game) I just loved this, thanks for covering it. So nice to see a talented dev appreciate it in this way.

[@SULLIEDASP]

You going to finish your play through I can't wait until you meet yourself I guess you kind of did with Toby but it kept skipping part's.

Busted! I am the guy at 20:43 and I am Cinematic Designer at Warhorse. 😀 Great eyes! Cheers and thanks for all the positive comments 🙂

I absolutely recommend playing KCD 1. I've been gaming since the early 90s and doing historical combat since 2008, and KCD absolutely shot to my top games ever.

[@careyfreeman5056]

Amen. Yes, it's a bit jankey at times, but it's so good I have no problem accepting it. The writing in particular. I'm playing again to prep for this and I forgot how good the dialog was.

More like one of the best combat and best archery systems ever! Not to mention one of the best games in a long time! Can’t wait for the second one!!!!

Seeing a person who worked on RDR2 (which is in my TOP3 best games of all time together with Kingdom Come 1 and Witcher 3) being so excited about this makes me damn happy. KCD2, GTA6 and Witcher 4 are my most anticipated games now :) These studios create such masterpieces.

[@timdane6132]

kcd is w/in my top5 along with re4 and san andreas, witcher3 and rdr2.

[@Ronuk1996]

Kingdom come 1 is up there with RDR2 as one of most alive open worlds. KCD2 and GTA6 are only games i want Day one. You should try the first game if you have not already.

Omg yes. For anyone who never played the 1st one pls give it a try. It goes on sale constantly for $10 and I say is such a hidden gen especially in 2018. I love this game so much. Only thing is u have to engage with the mechanics and stuff which in a very immersive RPG sim can turn some ppl off. But I garuntee I'd u stick through it and play u will be totally hooked and have moments of omg I just did that IM HIM when you take on groups of 2+ enemies. I had so many moments of laughing, sadness and hurahhhhh playing this game. The passion War horse has is something that is missing in the industry and needs to have light shed on it. Being one if the 1st games to do photogrametry, have 11 people, a pretty small budget, and being a history nut myself being historically accurate being based on true events, and people I say this again pls give this game a shot. I would love to see you play thus York. Especially since you're an animator that has experience in the industry.

In the first game they actually said all the character faces were scans of either devs or actors, so they do indeed do that. The guy at 20:30 is the actor's, Richard Zeman's face.

@@YorkReacts the combat is pretty good, it’s just that most people get frustrated due to the strict timing of masterstrikes and the semi-strict timing of parries, it does fall apart a bit when fighting more than 2 people though, especially due to the lock-on system

Also, armor in the game REALLY acts like armor, unless you manage to find a gap in the armor, get a REALLY strong hit on the opponent or hit them when they’re tired, you will deal quite literally 0 damage.

@@YTSoukup Well tell it IGN and Kotaku.

[@luizarthurbrito]

​@@YTSoukupthere maybe some historical diversity this time just because of kuttenberg. Here's a paragraph from an article I found: Francesco Pegolotti states that the Prague groschen from the Kutná Hora mint, referred to as buenmini dalla magna (“Bohemian from Germany”), came to Venice via Vienna. 84 The Prague groschen (grossi boemi) became thus one of the most frequent silver denominations in 14 th -century Italy, as is evident, for example, from the pilgrimage book of Siena. 85 High earnings of the Prague patricians from colonization, mining, and the silver trade enabled the upper class settled in Bohemia and Moravia to purchase foreign luxury goods in larger quantities. The demand was considerable. They could purchase from foreign merchants “cheap” (in terms of silver) cottons and linens woven in Syria and Egypt, silk, 86 painted or enameled glass manufactured in Italy and Syria as well as a whole range of spices from India and Arabia that passed through the Levant. Silver of Bohemian origin flowed in the form of Venetian grossi to the Eastern Mediterranean and from 1261 to 1278 even towards the capital of the Persian khanate, Tabriz, where a mint was opened in 1271 to process these burgeoning supplies. 87 In the opposite direction, luxury medieval textiles not only of Mediterranean, but also of Chinese and Persian origin, were imported to Prague Castle, where fragments of some them have been preserved until now. 88 Imported glass, primarily cups and dishes (bottles and beakers occur rarely), originated in Syria (Aleppo), northern Italy (Murano), Byzantium (Constantinople, Corinth), and in Southwestern Germany. It was possible to buy these articles in Prague and Brno, so they seem to have become available even to persons outside the royal and bishop’s courts

[@hajinka98_]

Have to say it but Kingdom Come deliverance had the worst combat system i ever seen in a first person RPG game, i have no words how frustrating it was. Punches,jab and kicks are delayed to like 2.5 seconds after you press the key button, stamina drains out fast af. Audio, sound effects and animations were also really garbage during cutscenes. And what really made me cringe was when the cumans attacked the village they were like over 1000 cavalry or something but once they got inside you only saw like maximum of 10 lol.

[@thelazyduck9370]

You need about one playthrough to get used to the combat, after that it becomes really easy. That's actually one of the biggest flaws of the first game imo, the combat becomes way too easy if you're used to the game and just about 2-3 levels ahead of the level that the story would naturally assume you to be at.

You could technically win any 1v1 by just pressing q if you’re high enough level. Now I’m not saying that makes the combat good, but it’s certainly not hard in and of itself.
