Kingdom Come: Deliverance II Pre-Release Thread [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

[AwesomeButton]

Doesn't seem like Musa is enough for the friends of ours at our sister site

The game is shaping up even better than I expected.

 

[Paul_cz]

Not sure if serious. Eurogamer reviews were scoreless back then.

They gave "recommended" and "essential" score to games they liked. They specifically didn't give either to KCD, purely because of its absence of blacks.
Vávra is right to mock them, even if I am sure Plaion are not happy about it and it won't win him any friends among the wokester left.

 

[Raghar]

Early in the first act, you come across a Jewish merchant named Mordecai Haim. As well as being a vendor, you can engage him in the same kind of ‘hey, how’s it going? Anything going on in the area?’ small talk as you can with most NPCs. His response to such an inquiry? ‘Pay me’. Jesus Christ.

Huh. You know what, maybe Vavra is based after all. Especially since apparently

Spoiler

the quest Musa is involved in is about some criminal investigation, during which you can finger him. Wouldn't it be funny if he actually did the crime?

He is actually innocent, but you can indeed convict him to death with no real evidence.

That reminds me of mission in FF X-2 where Yuna had to investigate attacks against vehicles on the road. She could say: "you asked me to investigate, but YOU DID IT." And the proof is: I asked you to look at the site 11x, you came and say you found nothing. But when I asked you to came and investigate again, you didn't came.

Spoiler

Yea, he actually did it for real.

Spoiler

No you can't get chapter solved ending because by exposing him you prevent story of FFVII. You need to blame one of 12 innocent candidates.

Gameshub is now in the lead for lowest score on Metacritic.

That's actually what I seen merchants in Czech republic doing during "free market democratic era". They allegedly are doing job for money and watching random stuff around is more important than give a honest answer to a question.

Female bureaucrats and some post office female workers are simply lying. I actually had more success with Jews. Or That witness of Jehovah also treated me with respect.

General RPG Discussion, not brainfog central for your based and redpilled anecdotes

 

[Raghar]

C'mon I'm just saying that any merchant should give him the same treatment as the Jew merchant, they should be consistent. Or reviewer screwed up, and didn't bother with other merchants.

 

[Hellion]

That jewish merchant actually has a line of dialogue where you ask him how things are and he says "OY VEY, THINGS ARE TERRIBLE", you ask again what is wrong and he says "nothing really, when I say things are fine people ask me for money so I always say that things are terrible".

Now that's quite far fetched. Why would Jew merchant admit that to a stranger?

 

[GrainWetski]

 

[Quillon]

My confusion deepens. I don't know how to weight Mortimasmal or however he's called opinion against Eurogamer and Gameshub's one. Anyone good in differential equations and stuff?

Ofc the latter, "enemy of my enemy"-wise they are our fellow 'dexers ally over here you know

That's a Soviet era joke.

 

[Jenkem]

There has, at least, been a concerted effort to make the game more diverse. The first game was criticized for lacking representation outside of a handful of Turkic Cumans. In Kingdom Come 2, there's a Romani camp early on where you can pick up a few interesting quests pertaining to their beliefs and way of life. Various cultures are represented in Kuttenberg where you'll find plenty of Germans and an authentic Jewish quarter, with plot points delving into what it was like for Jews living in a predominantly Catholic country. Women are more autonomous as well, taking on vital roles that veer outside the lines of the patriarchy. There's still some sleaziness, but this is mainly reserved for those working in bathhouses, and even the women there are given slightly more characterization than the mere sexual objects they previously were.

Frankly speaking, I knew Henry was progressive left-leaning as soon as lord Divish saved his life, fed and nurtured him, after which Henry took advantage of his wife, lady Stephanie, stole some food, a suit of armor, and cheated his way out of Talmberg.

I care, if they are singing praises for this game that means there was some politicking behind the scenes. Apparently its much woker than we thought with multiple gay romances, defending jews and Africans, etc.

We might not care about gayming journos reviews, but theres no denying that lots of people "care" and it affects public reception of a game. If games get good reviews from journo retards, the game has better odds at sucess.

 

[Fedora Master]

It's non-news and shouldn't have been posted, simple as.

 

[Falksi]

"I played for 57 hours and I haven't seen anything gay. I've had one guy ask me to go for a drink..."

"I've been round the huge city, and I didn't see a single black person in it, it was all white people saying 'Jesus Christ be praised' "



Game might still be a bag of shite, but at least the woke stuff sounds minimal.

 

[Tyranicon]

Why even have an embargo at this point.
