Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 feels like a hobgoblin game. A game for late nights, sick days off work. A game you can obsess over. It’s a wonderful historical romp for the average video game-enjoyer, if they have the constitution to munch on the occasional wave of tedium. Allow me to make a case for the game’s merit by comparing it to the inevitable rival it’ll have in the eyes of gamers: The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim for good measure.
The combat for me was refreshing honestly, it felt like actual skills and knowledge I have irl about swordfighting (which are bad against better fighters and limited knowledge tbh) translated really well. Once you figure out the controls it’s pretty easy and just about managing your stamina a bit.
Other parts like the monastery mission just felt bugged and we’re frustrating to the point it basically stopped me from finishing the game. I even looked up a walkthrough and that did nothing. A shame though because I really liked wondering around in the world but that mission basically stopped me from just doing that too.
The monastery was great, you could cheese it in so many ways
