This is much more ambitious than the KCD2 trailer though. You can tell it was very competent people who directed it

True, but an attempt was made.

 

[PlayerEmers]

some people already got (console) copies from pre-orders
expect some spoilers and more stuff about musa and the unkown gay guy

also another classic "big game release with crucial day 1 patch"

That is already in the game.

Day 1 patch will add a camp full of confusexuals and the option to have sex with sheeps, cows, horses, chickens and every other animal in the game.

Band of Bastards but the whole retinue is pansexual.

In a historically accurate way ofc, Vavra wouldn't do us dirty like that.

I watched it. I have to say I was pleased with the diversity shown so far.

 

[SlamDunk]

between the certification [Gone Gold version] and release [version] are almost 3 months of fixes

 

[Sukhāvatī]

Always enjoy the details from Toby Capwell, like the waxing of the inside of the helmets to stop the ringing when struck.

 

[Quillon]

weird they used KCD1 footage tho... heh maybe its a leftover vid from 8 years ago when they were boycotting the game

 

[Sukhāvatī]

Yeah it's recorded mid last year but only uploaded recently, Gamespot actually fired the main producer behind the Sword/Firearms expert reacts videos, even though it was their best viewed content by far.

Where are the spoilers I was promised

 

[VerSacrum]

"Cinematic", meaning "the CGI used here has nothing to do with the game's actual rendering engine".

No shit, Sherlock? It was always the case.



This post is pending Infinitron's approval

I remember this being included in the expansion for Medieval Total War. Thinking it was real game footage, it got me extremely hyped. Anyway, the actual RTW was still very impressive and I don't remember them using this very early trailer just before the release.

Actually this seems to be the one they used leading up to the release, all actual game footage

 

[AwesomeButton]

Lol I knew I would find some dummy to scroll through the video looking for "niggers".

That reminds me of Owlcat games. 1.5 years of patches later it was playable. (Hypothetically playable.)

How fucked up must be a company when it needs critical day 1 patch when the game was 5+ years in development?

I just pre-ordered my copy

 

[NecroLord]

Combat still looks subpar.
Vavra you had one job...

You're right, but generic action RPG combat wouldn't suit the theme of the game either even if it was more polished. It is just not possible to recreate accurate medieval combat (finding gaps and weak spots in one's armour) with the present state of technology, but KC:D, with all its jank, probably got closest. It shines in duels. Just the damn auto lock on against groups was annoying.

I've finally given up and bought it too. Curse you, Musa of Mali.

 

[AwesomeButton]

I've been replaying KCD1, and I actually like the combat better this time. It likely has to do with me playing it on a GTX 780 on 1080p in 2018, and still getting around 45 fps max. Now the combat feels a lot more responsive. I've been thinking this has to be the first first-person game with medieval level of technology that gets right both combat, archery, and stealth.

Hah. For what it's worth, I still think all the naysayers will be pleasantly surprised by the game as a whole. And I look forward to seeing some Musa versions of this

 

[AwesomeButton]

Who knows. If they mod the NPC not to be in god mode, some fun ways to kill him may become possible.
