I dont know how you guys can play without map markers, that takes some serious exploration skill. I can understand the challenge and satisfaction but I prefer getting guidance navigating the mapThat one is fun on hardcore.

It helps when you've already played the game, I just really like the way it makes the game super realistic from a survival perspective. Towns are actual safe havens, travelling into the woods is genuinely dangerous because if you lose your way, shit can go south very quickly. The part where you escape on horseback from the town early on was quite funny because I kept going in the wrong direction and getting caughtI dont know how you guys can play without map markers, that takes some serious exploration skill.

As they say, no pain, no gain. It takes effort and endurance to get the hang of it but you'll be rewarded by a unique gaming experience.I dont know how you guys can play without map markers
Exactly. A smart player is able to control "balance" on the fly, as he is the player and the "game master" of the whole process of playing the game. When the designer tries to go all on in on being the "game master", he will inevitably fail. The game turns from a player-guided experience into an interaction with an unsophisticated chat bot. It takes lived experience to understand this, which is why designers like Josh Sawyer keep failing at it.Isn't the consensus that it's better to have an unbalanced game, over one that's Balanced™?Game isn't balanced for master strikes either
which is actually one of the greatest combat systems in any game ever.
That's a shame (and surprising, tbh)Of course I didn't enjoy it otherwise, this was just the final straw

KCD, on the other hand, with a few slight adjustments via mods, is very much like real combat, deep and tactical and interesting.
KCD's gestures based combat isn't unprecedented. Although the mechanics were much more simple, there was similar melee combat in Thief, in 1998.which is actually one of the greatest combat systems in any game ever.![]()
You can act like a retard all you want, but my statement is still 100% true.
The problem is that most gamers like you are conditioned to like shit combat, by the thousand and one games with shit combat that came before. Stuff like Skyrim, where it's just a left click spam, or twitchy crap like From Software games. Roll during this iFrame...

Sure, but Porky is still right on why it's good. And if Thief started it, KCD deserves credit for developing it further. God knows it yielded good results.KCD's gestures based combat isn't unprecedented.

What? I thought the melee combat was complete shit. Mount and Blade has way better first person melee.Hardly the best combast system ever made lmao but it's arguably the best first person melee system yet, warts and all. With more developing time might have become really something.
Except realism isn't the measure of a combat system's qualityNone of this shit is ANYTHING like real combat, which is actually interesting and complex.

I regularily fight in LARP against people who learned real HEMA fighting and this just can't be translated into a computer game.

Also just about anything IRL is more nuanced than any set of game mechanics - even the simple act of walking is far too complex for any game to simulate
Yes, absolutely worth it. Its a medieval themed RPG and has several realistic metrics around survival and a good skills advancement systemThis game's on sale and I can't be bothered to read through this whole thread to see if it's good or not. Can someone tell me if it's worth playing?
Yes, it's a great medieval simulator. Just be aware that if you're looking for fantasy elements you won't find them here.This game's on sale and I can't be bothered to read through this whole thread to see if it's good or not. Can someone tell me if it's worth playing?
It's worth playing at full price and then some, which can't be said about the majority of modern games.Can someone tell me if it's worth playing?
