There was this Polack Tuber saying a week ago previews would be dropping 10th Jan at 5 PM and the review embargo lifts on the 3rd Feb at the same time.

Seems he was right.

Guys, it's true that I enjoy laughing at your tantrums

I was already laughing on the 27th of February. That day I met already the king of laughable users: The Wall
You're our resident exotic animal/pet. What blackman in 14th century Bohemia would be, arrogant dick-eating femboy like you are on Codex. Returning you to Reddit is like putting fish back in water. But nah, we'd rather roast you
Oh, yeah. You cannot imagine how many times you made me cry with your "roasting". You are harsh, acute and evil. Mankind should be based on your persona.

Skimmed through a few Czech previews, everyone is happy about the game and apparently this time around the optimization is great and there are few bugs to speak of.

Haven't seen anything about the jogger yet though, he's probably in the later part of the game, few people have gotten that far.

I don't want to talk too much about the performance on the Steam Deck just yet since there's still so much more of the game to play, but so far, I will say the experience has been very positive. 30 FPS will definitely be possible, and I could see it working without any upscaler. It looks like 40 FPS may also be possible with upscaling. I don't want to say definitively whether it's playable on Deck or not, but my guess after my experience so far is that this will be a solid portable experience.

He didn't say much about the actual performance numbers while running the game on the deck, but if he believes the game can run at 30 fps on the SD just fine, then people can most certainly run on low end desktops just fine without upscaling.

The attempts at misdirection are no longer effective in the face of pattern recognition.

If it is present in the game, then it'll be particularly stupid since the lead developer is on record taking a very harsh stance against the idea of black characters being present in the region.

The dialogue is also very on the nose for the character. It has the same predictably smug tone that is present whenever a progressive forcibly injects diversity into a video game. Hogwart's Legacy had a black character bragging about how much better and advanced the African counterpart to Hogwart's supposedly is.

That's just one example. Yet once you start noticing the patterns, you can readily see how 99% of the time these NPC's are carefully crafting to push a certain false narrative.

The best case scenario is that it is indeed fake. If it isn't fake I will simply shrug in indifference and avoid buying the game.

My main concern is that the smarter subversives recognise the need to hide their agenda better, perhaps by pushing this nonsense towards the tail end of the story and exploiting the fact that content creator and journalist previews only cover the first segments.

Oh so the previews are limited to the first map, Bohemian Paradise. We aren't gonna know anything about the Kuttenberg map until the 3rd February when the review embargo lifts.

I was dubious about the whole screenshot deal from the beginning, but I'm beginning to lean heavily towards "fake" now.
Why only drip fed screenshots, in an era where anything can be faked by an AI? Why not a webm? Why only of this negro? Why aren't screenshots of plot critical moments leaking? Why didn't the ending leak? Why the very first screenshot featuring this negro have dialogue that couldn't be more ragebait-y if you tried, with him talking about respecting women? I think it's incredibly well-crafted outrage bait.
If it turns out that he's actually in the game, however, I'll delete this post and act as if I always known that Vavra is a cuck.
The second screenshot that you posted shows the exact same character with the exact same attire down to the details (like the chain) while exactly looking like the graphical style of KC:D. It's highly unlikely that AI is so consistent.
The scene that you posted also fits the leaked description that the man is a doctor at a camp.

If it was only one screenshot, a fake would be possible. But with the second screenshot, the possibility of a fake is very low.

I watched a preview but I don't think there's going to be any insight into the existence of specific NPCs

Previews have been strictly limited in what they can reveal, specifically they can't reveal anything past a certain point in the story

That kerfuffle aside, the preview I watched sounded extremely positive, especially regarding bugs - almost nothing.

German GameStar also posted a preview after 10 hours in-game. The author describes that it still totally feels like KC:D and is a real immersive RPG while improving some details so much that it "could be as good as Witcher 3". I know that W3's quality is seen controversial here (I haven't played it), but for normies it's generally seen as one of the best games of all time. I think GameStar even voted W3 as best game of all time. So that's pretty much the highest compliment they can give to any new game.

W3 checks all marks of plain mediocrity.

- Side quest galore: check
- Heavily simplified gameplay: check

Strap Yourselves In Codex Year of the Donut Codex+ Now Streaming! Enjoy the Revolution! Another revolution around the sun that is. Torment: Tides of Numenera Wasteland 2 Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
Just shy of 30 hours in now. I've yet to see a black person. Not saying they're not in, but they can't exactly be common.
Of course not, don't fall for retarded 4chan users (who are also on 'dex which is disgusting and they should constantly be bullied to fuck off back to 4chan) who fall for Assassin's Creed Mirage screenshots as KCD2.

Are the reviews witheld by NDA just up until the moment of release? Since people already got the game why no reviews - must be the NDA. Many preorders could be cancelled if the game wasn't that good and reviewed properly before the release.

They don't write that the game itself is anything like Witcher's game design. As I wrote, they used it as a compliment to describe the quality of KCD2 because W3 is their highest ranked game.

Day before release for the full reviews is what I heard.

An interesting change to masterstrikes - previously, to pull off a MS, you just pressed "Defend" as soon as someone attacked. Super lame, ruined the combat.

In KCD2 you also wait for someone to attack but now you have to "Attack" from the opposite side at the right moment. That also means you yourself won't get MS'd if you're only attacking on the side the enemy is defending.

Also MS is a sword-only ability now. Meaning mobs with maces, hammers and halberds can't MS you.

The fact that the dialogue is written in English and not Arabic gives it away that it's fake. Foreigners in KCD1 talked in their own language and the subtitles reflected that, like the Cumans who spoke in Hungarian or the Pole in the KCD2 showcase who spoke in Polish. Even if that nigger knew Latin (which was the lingua franca at the time), Henry would still be unable to understand him since he only knows Czech.

Henry learned how to read in a few days and how to dominate multiple full plate warriors with years of experience in a few months. You think he can't learn latin between KCD and KFC2?

Pretty sure that nigger can imitate whatever noises czechians used back then especially being super smart DEI insert nigger and all.
It's only been a few days between the end of KCD 1 and the start of KCD2, and the extended gameplay showcase they released last month already disproves that theory. The first thing you hear after the siege tutorial ends is Henry asking Hans Capon about a famous Latin saying.

Hans: "Audentes fortuna iuvat!"
Henry: "What's that you keep yelling, Sir Hans?"
Hens: "Good gracious, Henry! You don't mean to tell me you don't know Latin?"
Henry: "My apologies, your Grace. Unfortunately I was too busy shovelling shit and picking turnips to find time for studying Latin"

Gayjournos shilling a game is a very bad sign. They wanted to cancel the first one for not having niggers, so this sequel wouldn't even exist if they got their wish.

Not a single person fell for your AC screenshots from your porn folder..
