Smithing Guide - Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 Gameplay!

When I heard this it made me smile so hard.

[@RudeSaiyan]

noticed that as I was playing the game while having this play in the background, nice touch

[@lxxvx]

I noticed that, too. KCD1 is my favorite game of all time, and I haven't watched anything but the trailers, and this, because I want to be surprised. I'm glad I watched this, though, because this looks AWESOME! I spent hours crafting potions in the first one, it was really fun and kind of relaxing to do (unless you had Mutt with you, and he'd howl all night long, haha, I finally sent him home every time i started an alchemy session after that). I'm going to spend so much time making weapons to sell. THIS GAME IS GOING TO BE PERFECT (for me).

[@humbleclay79]

A tip I used in KCD 1 was to use a torch while sharpening. This is because the torch light would highlights the edge so you can see the sharpening progress. With this new system, which I really like, I don't know useful light will be, but it might be worth trying.

[@RichardSiegers]

another tip for KCD 1 is use the cheapest weapon you got (butcher knife or carpentry axe) and make it blunt on the grindstone and then repair it with the repair kit then make it blunt again and repair it again because the weapons are very cheap it takes almost nothing from your repair kit so you will be level 20 in 10 minutes

[@simonphoenix3789]

This is pretty cool. its clear the people who made this actually have some knowledge of blacksmithing. One of the obvious signs that you have started to burn your steel is when it starts throwing sparks like that. Unless you are forge welding, then its a sign that your piece of hot enough that it has a sticky surface and will tack together. But fully capturing the process of shaping a sword would be near impossible without becoming tedious and complicated. This is far more than any other game has ever tried before.

[@liamwalsh3925]

I was super impressed when I saw the sparks, devs have definitely put the extra effort in, but it's happened one too many times in my forge hahaha

[@simonphoenix3789]

@@liamwalsh3925 yeah burning your piece is a pain in the neck and one of the reasons why I switched from coal to gas despite really liking the smell of the coal forge. It was pretty common for me to accidentally wind up burning a piece when I wasn't paying attention and wind up with a sparking mess of half molten metal.

[@ReaperGrimm5594]

So you'd say it's a good balance between realism and fun?

[@liamwalsh3925]

​@ReaperGrimm5594 Just by looking at it, they've definitely skipped the more tedious parts of blacksmithing to make it more player friendly. So yeah, at face value it looks like a good balance.

@@liamwalsh3925 I mean, they kind of have to because otherwise it would end up being tedious and waste a lot of time. They did the same with equpping clothing and most importantly, armour.

[@chaitanyagupta6668]

trust but be cautious. Remember Cyberpunk.

[@Tombraithwaite1998]

@chaitanyagupta6668 cyberpunk blatantly kept any review copies from showing gameplay ahead of its release, only released pc copies for testing and held back information in regard to how well it ran on the ps4 and xbox hardware ahead of the current gen we have now. Warhorse studios have proudly allowed many reviewers and game channels full access to the game, and have allowed them to showcase massive chunks of gameplay, and they pulled their release forward from its original window because of its level of polish and the fact warhorse know the game is ready for release. I'm all for being cautious, but I can tell you right now that kc2 and cyberpunk 2077 are two worlds apart when you look at the lead up to the initial release.

[@YaBoiDaGuy]

[@Taylor-rw4le]

I’m so glad they are adding full on smithing to the game. That was one of my biggest things, as Henry was a smithy. One thing I also hope is that they do another Pribyslavitz type DLC and expand that. Hopefully by the third game it will be so expansive you could build your own in universe city. Let me make a place as legendary as Prague itself. Or maybe it’s not a DLC at all and affects the outcome of my gameplay and endgame

[@AnoAssassin]

Since the game is historical they won't let you do major things like building a new city that doesn't exist I'm afraid :( even Pribyslavice was a real place

[@hestiashearth478]

Blacksmithing has always been my go to in RPGs, I even actively search for games with blacksmithing on survival crafting genres.

[@roadwary]

Like Skyrim for instance or was that too simple? Sounds like this is way more immersive. Definitely cool.

[@ManicBacon]

In the first game there was a side quest where you hear about a "spell casting blacksmith" and his swords are basically unbreakable, he was really just singing nursery rhymes for his timing, but he tells you about a method where you quench the sword twice so its even more durable, i wonder if that applies here.

[@zoltansoctor7744]

Nah man this game is just insane. cant wait to play this

[@Operatorfrosty]

You can actually make a whole sword in one go, what I would recommend would go from the fire: So while in the fire go to the top part of the sword, use the bellow 3 times, go to the middle and again for 3 times, and the bottom 3 times, now while still at the bottom go another 2, then back to the middle for 2 times, and the top 2 times. :now you go to hammerin’ what you wanna do is raise the hammer till It’s out of the screen POV, (make sure it’s lined up with the blade so you don’t miss) and then release and let it strike, then you wanna just barely flick the thumb stick upwards to move up the sword, then you just move up and then repeat 2-3 (passes on that side of the sword up and down) times on one side and then flip, again 2-3 times on that side, and so long as you did it well (and hit it fast enough while the sword was hot) you can then finish the sword.

If the metal starts sparking it’s at the point where any more heat will melt the iron, so when it’s sparkling it’s perfectly hot and easy to hammer. To hot is only when it melts into the coal

I like they changed the economy of traders/craftsmen to make it so the more you sell one thing the less you get. It use to be way to op to sell meat to the huntsmen at Talmberg in the first game. Considering you could walk 100 yards into the woods shoot 5 deer and ride back and make 1k-2k in 5min. This change will be a welcome one that will help the longevity of the game.

I wonder how much of this will be necessary.

[@christopherkucia1071]

So according to others who have already played, I have seen and have explained to me smithing swords and horseshoes. Apparently the sword smithing is fine, you can really only move the sword back and forth and I’m pretty sure you don’t get to move the hammer to PURPOSFULLY or accidentally miss. (Maybe you can still miss a hit, I’m sure you can make good or bad swords) HOWEVER! Currently, the horse shoes and hammer on horse shoes don’t have any movement limit and it’s INCREDIBLY difficult to smith the horse shoes right now lol. I’m sure they will fix it. I would really like to know how other types of weapons work and if they are as easy/doable as the swords and not abysmally difficult like the horse shoes.

[@ESOdanny]

Skill Issue haha. Your right, sword can only be moved back and forth and flipped. You cannot miss you just need to hammer it evenly. The horseshoe, axe etc has an area you can hit, buts its possible to miss what your hitting like IRL. Its actually very realistic so it does not need to be fixed. But its funny that for this reason smithing a sword is more brain afk than smithing a horseshoe.

[@caerbenogg]

Crafting looks nice and fun. BUT it could get boring and tedious when you need to craft a lot.

[@ahoosifoou4211]
