I watched the video on the GOG link below and Im not sure how I feel about this game
I think it looks nice:


So what if Pierre doesn't have a kabillion dollars and isn't able to dosh out on artists in order to make pretty graphics. The underlying mechanics are great. The build making is great. The difficulty is great. Plus there's tools for people to make their own modules too. So if you don't like the base modules. Create your own with fancy graphx. There's an option to upload custom sprites and shit.

If you like building a custom party of D&D class characters, and have challenging turn-based encounters, you will most likely enjoy the game.

I use to be a DM in the AD&D 2nd edition Forgotten Realms for 12 years so I love anything and everything to do with AD&D\D&D and will generally buy all PC games related to this genre and I dont mind the modern edition rulesets. My favorite RPG of all time is BG2:ToB (followed by Witcher 3 ). So yes I love creating custom parties and the GOG link highlighted some exciting components in this game

I am going to wait for its full release and then see what the reviews are like and what Codex members, who are real fans of D&D gaming mechanics , have to say who play the game. I want this game to succeed and I will now be following its progress :salute:

Anyone who says anything bad about KotC 2 is either a spy or Todd Howard.

How much did you pay for the game? I looked up first part on steam and the price is quite insane.

I paid about $20 for the first Chalice on release. Getting the second one on Kickstarter was $27 minimum. Niche games get niche prices.

It might be worth $20 I'm just not sure if I will enjoy it.

Chalice Knights has a free demo that will more or less show you what you're in for (only no character creation).

Yes, if by "insane" you mean "too low for how good it is".

There's a free demo both on GOG and Steam.

If you enjoy D&D 3.x combat system and turn based games, you will love KotC.
