Kingdom Come: Deliverance II - Henry's coming to see us on February 4th

Another alleged screenshot of the negro

Btw if you watch today's previews, you will see that some of them were showing stealth segments of players stealing npcs. Those npcs were sleeping partially derobed (just like the image).

KCD1 npcs always slept with full clothes on (im saying this because there were people thinking the image was modded KCD1). This black man leak is probably very legit.

The advantage of Warhorse delivering review codes so early is that I don't have to rush the main story for once.

So what machine are you running it on (specifics!), at what settings (post your menu options screen) and what framerate?

At work I'm using a 4090, 64 ram and... I forget what cpu it is. AMD, might be Ryzen 9 9900x? At home I've a 3090, 32 ram and a Ryzen 7 7700x.

Either way, game recommended Ultra settings which is what I've been using. Playing in 1440p. 140+ or whatever fps at work, less at home. Probably around 110 with a few dips in heavily forested areas. Haven't paid much attention to it since I've not had issues (yet). I did try it briefly on an older machine at work which has a 3070. Ran about 60 on Ultra, 100 on Medium. The game looks great on Medium too, anyway. At least in my eyes, but then I'm not a graphics whore either so others' mileage may vary.

So they gave you plenty of time to burn out, get absolutely sick of the game and slap it with 6/10. Cool strat.

Sounds good. Is that with DLSS enabled or disabled?

KCD1 npcs always slept with full clothes on (im saying this because there were people thinking the image was modded KCD1). This black man leak is probably very legit.

Most of them did dump their daily clothes into a container and slept with just the large white undergarment on - I should know because I just replayed the game again and choked out more than my fair share of villagers while robbing their places. The reason for that undergarment was the layered clothing/armor system they used, it splits the bodies into segments which is why you see that gap around the waist in that screenshot, too. It's why all the nude mods sucked too, modders couldn't get around that system.

DLSS on quality.

9th best selling game rn, three weeks from the launch.

Really surprised how huge Civ 7 is shaping to be btw, judging by wishlists and the 3rd place in the top sellers, a month from the launch.

I mean, I don't disagree, but the first didn't ship with it either as far as I remember, right? It'll likely come down the pipe, or quickly be implemented via mods.

Preview benchmarks and Low/High quality comparisons. Take with a grain of salt since those benchmarks are probably made on forrest areas and the initial areas of the game, not Kuttenberg.

In case people don't know, the Mali "empire" is the one that made literal sand castles located all the way to west Africa. The highly skilled doctor and engineer from this clearly advanced sand Wakanda traveled across the entire Sahara desert, length wise, ferried himself across the Mediterranean, probably landed somewhere in Italy and made a long trek in some remote northern Slavic country dominated by a religion hostile to his own so he could do some kind of business in a city that barely even allowed Jews to do the same.

Modern people don't realize this, but some people traveled fairly long distances in middle ages. Europeans regularly went on pilgrimages to Jerusalem. It's documented that three Ethiopian monks traveled to Council of Constance in 1415. Of course they were Christians, so they actually had a reason to go there, but going from Ethiopia to Constance is longer distance than from Mali to Kuttenberg. And if this Musa guy is real, he's not living in Bohemia. He's part of Sigismund's retinue. Sigismund was the King of Hungary and Croatia, therefore he had an access to Mediterranean ports, which makes it a little more believable. Employing a Muslim doctor could make sense, since he probably would have more medical knowledge than European bloodletters. Sankoré University in Mali was well regarded center of learning.
I still don't think there are any documented cases of any people from Mali being in Hungary at this time. So they kinda did what Josh Sawyer did with his black guy in Pentiment. Very unlikely presence, but not impossible.

Also, we do have one documented case of black people in Bohemia in 1467, when a Bohemian nobleman received two blacks from the King of Portugal, but of course that was after Portugal established their colonies in Sub-saharan Africa.

When we took our leave, the king spoke very kindly to Lord Lev, first by himself and then through an interpreter. He said to him these words: "I see that you come from a very distinguished family, and therefore I beg you to do our kingom the honour of asking for any gift you desire. It will be granted to you." When our lord heard this, he respectfully thanked him for the honour and favour bestowed upon him, and asked the king to give him two Moors. The king's brother was present, and when he heard this request he burst into laughter and said: "What you ask, my friend, is of no value. Ask for something greater and more honorable than these Moors. But if you desire them so much, please accept this third gift from me, a monkey, and return to your homeland, thus exquisitely endowed! Evidently," he asked, "you have neither Moors nor monkeys in your country, that you ask for them above all other things?
And when Lord Lev answered that they were seldom seen in our country, the duke said: "But there is an abundance of such things in our country. Here the king, my brother, has three cities in Africa, and sends an army into that country every year. And from no such expedition, even a smaller one, do they return empty-handed, but bring with them a hundred thousand or more Moors of all ages and sexes. And all that is brought is then sold like cattle. For such is the custom here, that people from other countries come to the Moors market and buy them up. And the king profits more from the sale of them than from the taxes of the whole kingdom. For even a small black man is worth twelve or thirteen gold pieces of Portuguese money; but a larger one is of course much more expensive." And they have a custom, that if anyone gets a strong and hard-working Moor, he baptizes him, and does not sell him, unless he gives him to a friend as a gift. But as long as the Moor is not baptized, he is free to sell him at will.

(AI translated from: Václav Šašek of Bířkov - Diary of Travels of Lord Lev of Rožmitál from Bohemia to the Edge of the World, 1467)

And he should have been a subject of the Turks or, if closer to the Islamic golden age, a Saracen, a thousand, a million, ten million times over before a sub-Saharan black. But that isn’t the fashion of the moment.

The only sub Saharan blacks in Europe would be oddities, objects of courtly vanity, exported like animals from the barely-explored Leopoldlands in Africa, nothing more. I’m not interested in listening to kids and outsiders argue against this, it was still true within living memory.

P.S. And also, when someone from the Middle Ages talks about ‘black’ people, they invariably mean tanned people like Greeks.

You are utterly delusional if you think anyone made fakes this convincing. This is weapons-grade "beyond good and evil 2 is still in development and it's going to be great!"-level cope. It's real.
