KickStarter Kingdom Come: Deliverance - Dan Vavra's medieval chad simulator

[Wunderbar]

Warhorse community manager sort-of answered.

For clarification: Tobias answered the question - if there's going to be a DLC "finishing the story of KCD". He stated NO, as the DLC's are side injections into the game. Kingdom Come: Deliverance is finished as it is, even though there is a cliffhanger.

it is still not clear whether Henry is going to be KC2 protagonist or not.

So this has nothing to do with KCD2. Cancel the red alert.

 

[Steezus]

Main game won't be continued. DLC is going to be side stuff. Henry's story is over. Internally, they decided to move on despite the cliffhanger.

When you browse reddit while waiting on the train and stumble across your own Codex post, lmao.

Yeah Tobi confirmed he was only answering question if DLC will continue Henry's story, to which the answer is no. Nothing about a sequel at all.

I knew the "news" would cause a shitstorm.

It is pretty informative.

That might turn out to be a a studio-killing move. Fans are going to be pissed. Well, at least, I am.

Nope. I didn't mind Henry but I don't care what they do as long as it's good.

 

[AwesomeButton]

I wouldn't be against if they ditched Henry's story and move to a new protagonist directly in the Hussite wars. Henry's cameos wouldn't hurt but I don't insist I play as the same character in KCD2.

https://video.aktualne.cz/dvtv/prodej-warhorse-budeme-dal-delat-hry-jsme-zvykli-na-svobodu

It is pretty informative.

Some highlights:

• the sale was agreed upon by all three owners, of course the majority investor Bakala did not want to keep funding a gaming studio longterm (he already did for 7 years) and was looking for return on his investment, so this was the best opportunity
  
  
• they have very clear understanding with THQ Nordic that they were bought to do what they do - make games with their own creative control. He does not deny that as a legal owner, THQ Nordic can, if they wanted, influence Warhorse - but says that THQ bought them precisely because they are already successful, and they have no interest in messing that up
  
  
• he kind of indirectly vaguely spills the beans on Kingdom Come 2 being their next project eventhough he says it is too early to comment, it was pretty funny moment in the interview (very sneaky from the interviewer)
  
  
• he confirms they want to staff up more, find around 30 more people - programmers, animators, scripters, artists..

I wish all the best for Warhorse going forward. I still remember fondly of those early days of the Codex shitting all over the game, for its muh imershum-focused design concepts and sensibilities.

Oh, how the time flies:

Was there anything about the upcoming move to the new office? (Or have they done it already...)

Nothing about the move and afaik they are still in Karlin, but will move out soon. Funnily enough Forum Karlin was also owned by Bakala who also sold it recently.

From Klima's interview:

- "What will be THQ's influence on your creative process? What if you decided that KCD2 will be a battle royale from space? Would THQ stop you?"
- "Well I can't say yet what KCD2 will be be about...uh...if it happens at all....I was.... *nervously drinks water*...not supposed to comment on that."
- *moderator grinning*

It's pretty shitty that they decided not to continue the unfinished Henry storyline, but really, it was inevitable. They probably want to do the Hussite Wars already, tbh I don't understand why they didn't start out with that in the first place.

Stop spreading fake news
And they addressed why they did not want to start with Hussite Wars - it was such a monumental, mass event that doing it justice would take insane amount of work and money and for their first project they wanted a smaller scale conflict.

Henry won't come to see us, yay! Great decision Warhorse! :D

 

[ZoddGuts]

Aren't the Hussite Wars 15 years later? Henry could play a role in it, he'll be older (mid thirties), don't see why he can't be involved.

 

[Tigranes]

sigh

Warhorse has NOT said anything about Henry in or out, it was a false alarm.

 

[Jenkem]

Whether Henry is in or out is up to Koch Media, GmbH.

 

[cvv]

Hey guise, guise listen, I've heard Henry isn't coming back. Also I haven't read the previous 10 comments because I just came here to breathlessly tell you these shocking news.

 

[Nas92]

Sorry for spreading fake news. Should have read the updates.

Aren't the Hussite Wars 15 years later? Henry could play a role in it, he'll be older (mid thirties), don't see why he can't be involved.

Since the Henry storyline has been essentially cut in half it would be strange if the next KC game does not immediately get down to resolving that. That basically makes it impossible to set the next game during the Hussite Wars.

Smejki What's going on with the fixes for 1.8.1? It has some ridiculous bugs, like the one where the enemies don't attack. If you go to the Bugs subforum on Warhorse website, there is a huge thread about this, but nothing's been announced. The game is essentially unplayable with this for over a week, an update would be really nice.

Our guys have been looking into it for several days already. Fix will come for sure. That's all I am able to say now.

Anybody know if the team ever commented on Witcher 3's RedEngine vs. CryEngine or why they didn't try to use that instead?
