Dude you’re seriously the best brother, i’m so happy i found your channel this past week. Not only are you covering my favorite game but the quality of your videos are astonishing. Can’t wait for this channel to blowup especially once the sequel releases.
Mate, instant sub from me! I love doing the "perfect start" in kcd and trying to max everything in the most efficient way, but the sheer know-how to take on ALL achievements in one run is insane!!
This is a very, very challenging run. I admire it. I’ve done it myself. I gave you massive props. It is an amazing achievement and amazing feet for an amazing game. Can’t wait for the second game. Hopefully they add the amount of achievements because I am a masochist.
I love how sometimes during that boar hunt with Hans, he randomly does the NPC reaction for you crouching at the end. I had him asking me whether I need to shit before 😂
Haha Right?? I've crouched down before right beside him AS HE CROUCHED down and he goes "What are you sneaking around for?", my favorite is that "Need a shit?" line though
You know, as far as the speech stuff, I've heard you can cheese it by going to the map edge and constantly trying to leave. That Henry's repeated "Radzig wouldn't like that" gets your speech up.
I've heard the same, I was trying to avoid doing methods like this if I could help it. The run was long enough without bashing my head into the edge of the map for 5 hours lmao
The whole Matthew/Fritz sidequestline is so aggravating tbh most from a story standpoint and it seems to just bug out and cause people problems all the time. I've never been able to replicate it but I swear I somehow at one point resolved Gallows Brothers and Rock and a Hard Place without betraying them OR stealing the groschen and I genuinely don't know how to do it again. Honestly in my mind, Judas is the canon route. Henry risks his life to travel the dangerous countryside job-hunting for his friends only to not pay him back. They can royally mess up everything at the mill in Ledetchko and just run away. Instead of looking for another honest job they resort to scheming to rob merchants but then again make YOU risk everything to get the plan moving. Then, suddenly, they decide to rob Talmberg. For barely any meaningful amount of money. And they suddenly have brand new suits of armor. That probably outweigh the value of the gold you steal at the quarry. It's not bad armor either. I doubt they're as clumsy as Henry started out, they have some fight sense, Fritz can even train you. They could have easily trained and fought for something honorable to earn money but instead the only fighting they ever even considered doing was sticking up merchants. THEN if you decide to bring them to Pribyslavitz they're a DRAIN on profits until you threaten to kick them out and watch them starve in the woods or something. A Henry willing to stick by their side long enough to get Friends Without Benefits is a saint. Henry and Mattias worked when they lost everything. Henry worked to fight for his country and honor the last piece of work his father ever made and judging by where Mattias is setting when you find him, he was likely learning animal grooming, animal husbandry, and only stopped when he dealt with a deadly infection. Post-Prologue Henry would hate the way the other half of the gang turned out.
Yeah, i know what you mean. I try to view it as Matthius and Henry were the grown ups who are in relationships and are striving for more and Matthew and Frotz are the 2 hooligans always looking for their next get rich quick scheme and war pushed them to the extreme. Its frustrating because they start as your friends but some people won't change their ways and that's thr case with Matthew and Fritz
I binge watched this over two days. Extremely disappointed the save you needed was overwritten. This is a good guide for someone looking for a platinum.

Hey Shane!! The idea behind this was for continued viewing so you can always come back where the video left off so hopefully people like the idea! Strat does something similar on his let's play channel so I wanted to try it on this one, so far people are receptive to it
Watched it all now. I was lowkey salty about the cheat save mod so it was cathartic how it came back to bite you in the end. Big thanks for the pilgrimage tip I was sitting on 81/82 achivments for over a year now because I had no clue on how to do this
Haha that one is decisive. Offline I don't really use it. When in streaming or filming I kind have to so I don't have to redo work (like my no healing run kept messing up and had to redo like 4 sections 3 seperate times....) Part that stings is i got those achievements offline after the run easy for the guide I'm making and it was easy so it would have been so easy to make it successful 😮💨
Currently 16 hours in, love the video! Learned some great tricks while watching and playing my own run. One tip though, could you add chapters/sections for the next long video? Sometimes hard to find a segment I want to go back to when I get there myself in the game 😅
The quintessential, "Just one more before bed." Video. ☝️😌👌 Also, the part where you cook the rabbit meat to wash off the "stolen" tag, since it goes from stolen raw meat to "legit" cooked meat during the hunting segment, I guess you could call it "Bunny Laundering". 🤣
@Griff_Gaming Thou shalt not kill, so that was haresy! ☝️ Haha ok ok ok, I'll stop, gotta finish the video, actually amazing timing, I just randomly stumbled across your channel and I thought about KCD just yester after many years of not playing, found your video and saw the length and it's just what I need, I'm going through a rough time and this is just the lengthy distraction I need, so thank you. ☺️👍
Running through along with you (currently 6 hours in), and I just need to say this video is great. Sometimes I get a little lost as to where you are or where you've gone with some of your cuts but nothing a bit of graft on my end to figure it out considering you went through all this effort to make this video. Wish Merciful didn't cockblock you so much, I hope they don't have a similar achievement in KCD2. But look forward to seeing you making content for it, I'll certainly be back.
Thanks Micro! Yeah it can be disorienting for sure but had to be done. The run was almost 80 hours so had to trim some fat to get it down to 20 hours haha glad you're enjoying though and look forward to seeing you back for more!
@@Griff_Gaming No I appreciate that it definitely wasn't easy to trim 80+ hours down to even 20. So I'm not complaining at all - you did all the leg work after all! Whenever you showed the map and pointed to where something should be that makes it easy. Thought I'd do another playthrough of KCD before KCD2 and what better excuse than to pick up the rest of your achievements. Thanks again :D
I was really worried when I saw this pop up that it'd be 20 hours. Unedited. And just silence for like 10-15 minutes and then like a tiny bit of talking and the another big gap of silence I was wrong. I'm not finished yet but I'm a good chunk through. Very good video I'm looking forward to the rest of the video later when I wake up lol
Man, I'm at a tight spot in "band of bastards", and these dudes should have been called a "bunch of punks"!!!! Every time I turn around the deal with the archers half of them are dead. I say screw The archers, and back them up and they still all die! The only people I can get to survive a kuno and dangler. Am I doing something wrong????
The (Fancy Pants) Gambler at the broken wheel inn is sitting on 900 + groshen!!! He leaves at 10:00 p.m. on the dot. You can choke him then, or in the barn in the morning. But that guy funds my early game playthrough! Not to mention the best pair of pants in the game!! Give him a couple of days to get his money back up and hit him again. He's an early game gold mine. 2:09 in video
Very true but 2 reasons I didn't do this, I wanted to use him to play farkle against to win that 1,000 off him for gambler achievement. I've had it happen before that his groschen somehow never reset back to 1000 and he only had 20 or 30 groschen (prob a glitch but I was being safe). I also tried to avoid stealing or choking out in Rattay that early in the playthrough because getting caught doing crimes would tank my rep and make King Charming (80+ rep in each city) unreachable. For normal runs though, he is amazing to take out and he has my favorite pants in the game 💯 my favorite passive income is robbing Neuhof stables (all the horse tack), put it in Pesheks chest, and wait 5-6 IG days for it to turn. Roughly 10k each time
Dude that is dirty!!!! Have not those poor people at Neuhof going through enough trouble without waking up and finding their inventory stolen!!! LAMO! But that's what makes the game great there's so many different ways to play it!!! What's killing me is that I only found out about this game this year! And I'm finding out new stuff still!! I almost want to play another year, then by kcd 2!
I spent my first 1200 hrs on PS4, nightmareish to be sure. But I loved the game so much that I upgraded to the PS5 just for the sequel.But I still don't feel like I soaked up all of the KCD1 to play KCD2! Crazy.
KCD is one of those games I wish I could wipe from my memory just so I could experience it over and over again for the first time. Can't wait for KCD2!
Honestly, I've said that before. I wish I could experince KCD for "the first time" again. Hoepfully there are enough changes within KCD 2 to have that feeling again. Certainly seems like there are enough new features to make that happen!
@@Griff_Gaming I've just finished the whole vid, sad that the game deleted your save files :( I've not looked up any info on kcd2, don't want anything spoiled for me. I think the thing I love about the first one is just the story, the silly quests and outcomes. I like that it's not serious and you can sleep with all different people, get the vicor drunk and wake up in random places when sleeping. I remember the game being really janky on release and it took me like 5 playthroughs to get all ps4 trophies, but the quest writing, voice acting and just general fun is what I love most about it. If KCD2 ends up just being the same game in a different location I'll be super happy.
I have just found out that when ever you talk to the guards up to the skalitz castle gate the gambler near the tavern resets which is a way I believe to farm speech xp by betting with him
Ah makes sense, good to know! I guess i haven't rebuilt Priby enough to ever notice, i always thought it would just drop in a certain amount of time later rather than base it on what you build. Useful though so you know to always build tavern stuff last so you don't get stuck at night!
The run was about 80 hours, but between editing and everything closer to 140. On top of that everything was logged into Notion to go with a guide im making on Strat's channel so MAYBE close to 200 hours? It was a lot, on the bright side, streaming this weekend!!
I've tried luring black Peter up to the castle with the hopes that the guards would take care of him and it didn't work, so if it works for you I'm going to be surprised.
So i have a question with the mods you use. I tried downloading thro Votex and manual. but cant seem to get any of em to work all i get is a msg saying Since you installed the newest version of KCD we disabled your mods and moved them to Mod_old folder for you. any advice how to fix? i play on steam
Not gonna lie, I'm not an expert on modding by any means but I haven't had this issue and I've been running the latest version of KCD since I started playing it on PC. I know there are certain mods that can't just go into the mod folder but otherwise maybe some Reddit threads might help? Sorry I can't be of more help
@@Griff_Gaming found a fix. was changing folder when mods where to mod_old. all you need to do is make a new Mods fold and copy and paste all your mods to the new folder and leave the mods_old as is dont delete it and mods now work. such a round about way but shit atleast i can mod now. keep up the great work with the videos they made me redownload and give the game a ago again after all this time!
Do the achievements not deactivate with the mods you installed? The picking up 10,000 herbs without that mod is going to be a pain! How do you do it without mods disabling achievements? :)
So i play on PC and it doesn't seem to affect the mods. I think mods only affect console's ability to get achievements (i know Skyrim on console disabled trophies while running mods). Didn't have any issues unlocking things with this QoL mod list
As a BIT of a spoiler, I did about 90 percent of these as a pacifist, not easy to do! But honestly shocking how much of this game can be done without killing!
I 100%ed in two playthroughs. First save file in hardcore mode where I got almost all of the achievements (DLC included). Second save file to do the following pain in the ass achievements: Trial-and-error, Virgin and (the worst one by far) Merciful. It took me 200+ hours. i know the map by heart and can navigate it blind lmao.
Nice! Even in 2 playthrough's its a difficult game to 100% and honestly what makes it such a pain is the women's lot DLC. Between Full House Sinner and Cleric's Pet, you have to plan all your actions out so much to not void any other achievements like Virgin and Merciful
What's up Jess! I actually played a bit of Spiderman offline between this run lmao, maybe we can reverse roles, you get on the KCD grind, and I'll grind a bit of Spiderman lol
Tbh, I never eat spoiled food in the game. I don't remember if I ever took the perk, might have if I had a leftover point, but I never use it. I often play survival sandboxes and I'm used to creating and following my own set of rules to slow down some aspects of the game or make it a bit harder or slightly more realistic. It makes me enjoy the games more. But, obviously, for a playthrough where you're focused on a specific goal and aren't just playing for immersion, it makes sense to use everything you can to your advantage.
In a lot of ways I do too, most games with survival elements don't have the option to even eat spoiled foods, first couple playthroughs it was more a QoL perk that made it so you don't have to always hunt. But I would do just fine in the game even if that perk wasn't around
Really great walkthrough. Nice to watch. I am not even at the end. But overall nice. One little thing, if you cut between to two things or more, every little thing should ve at least 5 seconds long. If they are shorter sometimes it hurts my eyes. But maybe i just become old.
I'll def keep that in mind if I do a run like this again. I used a software that cut all quiet parts that really helps save some time with editing (turning essentially what would have been 100 hours of editing down to about 30 hours instead) but went through at the end to clean everything up. I'll try to maybe tweak settings so it's not quite as aggressive and jarring between cuts. Thanks for the feedback!
@@Griff_GamingThat’s great thank you, I tried looking online but people seem uncertain. I’ve been playing through the game simultaneously while watching this play through trying to get all achievements but thought I’d get some quests in Rattray out the way but didn’t want to risk losing the trophy. Once again thank you :)
2:08:35 all slavics have this and the basic meaning is just "ah fuck" but literally it's worse name to call someone a prostitute, like the cheapest one possible or something. At least in polish but I suppose Czech is the same.
I love how they almost use it as comic relief in the game. I think it's kind of like "cyka" in Russian. It means "bitch" but you can use it for pretty much anything
Finally, decently long enough video to scratch my autistic brain. I see that you focus mostly on KC:D content but personally I'd love some other platinum in games made in this style by you. Without over the top edits, just great commentary to help others.
I do plan to expand to other titles too. I am still FAIRLY new to youtube (about 1 and a half years) which sounds like a long time but most of the established channels have been around 3-4 years. Once there's a solid focus on the channel, then I feel I can experiment with more titles! That being said, I think content like this will become more frequent on the channel since most times I do a challenge run, I've done either a live stream or just did it online and a heavily edited summary. Doing this can allow me showcase the entire run but also make more videos out of the footage as well (guides, etc)
I'm with you on that one! That's honestly the most painful part of any run I want high alchemy! It's a grind for sure but luckily once you get above level 10, the benefits stay with you for the rest of the run. Till you have to do it all over again on the next one 🤣
By first starting with 80 hours of footage and editing it down to 20 lol. Honestly, there's an AI editor called Timebolt that uses AI to cut the silence. Made the process much simpler. Still had to go through remaining footage and manually edit out some sections but basically cut what would have been probably 50-60 hours of editing down to around 25 hours of manual editing
The name Svatopluk doesn't really have a deep lore meaning aside from the fact that one of the meanings of the name is "strong warrior". It's a pretty normal old Czech name. You'll still find people with that name today 😄
Yeah, she's a bit of a long one, everything is split into Episodes though so hopefully you can skip around or come back to points you might leave off at
Thanks! This is the process I used: th-cam.com/video/OvxYYkjGbvk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=pXmET1B_Og0EHluC Instead of going through each one you can also type in reset_all_stats followed by the app ID to reset everything but it'll reset every stat in the game. Just FYI. Or you'll have to manually go through and clear each achievement one by one with achievement_clear
@Griff_Gaming pretty much. Other word you might have noticed is "jebat" which translates as "(to) fuck". It and it's variants have just as wide usage as it's english counterpart.
It is, it's camo-miile but I have some messed up pronunciations. Like i keep flipping with grow-shen and grash-en but I've said it wrong for some long I can't get in the habit of saying it properly 🤣🤣
There's a feature on controller that allows for simplified controls that make it mimic mouse and keyboard. I've honestly done traditional for so long I just keep it the same. Plus I kind like the challenge it provides towards the start of the game, call me crazy lol
it took me 10 days to watch all the way through this video. i loved the completionist walkthrough. but in the end, it was the save anywhere mod that got him. it's convenient but it breaks immersion, makes the game too easy and messes up the savegame system.
Yeah, honestly it's a gift and a curse. I'm honestly not someone that saves very often since I played on console for so long so I was only limited to the savior schnapps. The reason I honestly have it is because I do content creation. So as I'm playing I have mic and peripherals running and OBS studios recording while im playing (which crashes fairly often since most of the sessions I record in are around 8-9 hours at a time). It's just convenient if something goes wrong and obs crashes or the game crashes not having to redo 4 hours of recordings because I'm limited by when I can save. So while I do agree with you that I don't think someone playing for the immersion should do the unlimited saves mod, I'm constantly recording, testing, and I have mods installed that can make the game a bit unstable
I have over 100 hours into my first playthrough, and I'm still getting my ass kicked about halfway through the game on the normal mode😂 But I do like the game. Combat is hard to learn. I'm gonna start playing the tournament in ratay for 60 coins over and over til I get the combat technique down
It does get easier when you start to learn the mechanics. Master strikes help to make fights winnable and raising your Defense skill will increase the timing window of the master strike. I have a guide to help with defense if you're struggling. Then you can start to land your own offense when the timing is right (right after master strikes or clinches, otherwise the enemies might counter you).
I found a couple strategies in this run that I could still engage in fights without voiding the achievement, its a bit of an exploit but it kept this near 80 hour run interesting
Well I don't have 20+ hours to watch this but here is obligatory upvote for showing love to KCD and your hard work.
Thank you! There's chapters in the description to separate parts if that helps, either way, thanks for the interaction!!
Impressive! I didn't get through the whole thing yet, but no doubt this was a big accomplishment.
Haha def time consuming but a blast to do! Thanks Strat!

This is a very, very challenging run. I admire it. I’ve done it myself. I gave you massive props. It is an amazing achievement and amazing feet for an amazing game. Can’t wait for the second game. Hopefully they add the amount of achievements because I am a masochist.

Thanks Micro! Yeah it can be disorienting for sure but had to be done. The run was almost 80 hours so had to trim some fat to get it down to 20 hours haha glad you're enjoying though and look forward to seeing you back for more!
@@Griff_Gaming No I appreciate that it definitely wasn't easy to trim 80+ hours down to even 20. So I'm not complaining at all - you did all the leg work after all!
Whenever you showed the map and pointed to where something should be that makes it easy.
Thought I'd do another playthrough of KCD before KCD2 and what better excuse than to pick up the rest of your achievements.
Thanks again :D
Why are you so underrated, this video is insane.
Jesus Christ be praised!!
I appreciate it and glad you like it!
I was really worried when I saw this pop up that it'd be 20 hours. Unedited. And just silence for like 10-15 minutes and then like a tiny bit of talking and the another big gap of silence
I was wrong. I'm not finished yet but I'm a good chunk through. Very good video I'm looking forward to the rest of the video later when I wake up lol
Haha glad you're enjoying it so far. This run was close to around 80 hours so yeah, the 20 hours is the talking parts lol
huge credit for this griff, amazing stuff
Thank you!
Damn you, damn you, damn you!!! I'm only 2 hours into this video and already contemplating another playthrough!!!!😂
🤣🤣 just in time for the sequel haha
Man, I'm at a tight spot in "band of bastards", and these dudes should have been called a "bunch of punks"!!!!
Every time I turn around the deal with the archers half of them are dead. I say screw The archers, and back them up and they still all die! The only people I can get to survive a kuno and dangler. Am I doing something wrong????
@@glennericnaylor276 is this in the final battle? Or (I'm assuming) the one you get ambushed at the river?
The (Fancy Pants) Gambler at the broken wheel inn is sitting on 900 + groshen!!! He leaves at 10:00 p.m. on the dot. You can choke him then, or in the barn in the morning. But that guy funds my early game playthrough! Not to mention the best pair of pants in the game!! Give him a couple of days to get his money back up and hit him again. He's an early game gold mine.
2:09 in video
Very true but 2 reasons I didn't do this, I wanted to use him to play farkle against to win that 1,000 off him for gambler achievement. I've had it happen before that his groschen somehow never reset back to 1000 and he only had 20 or 30 groschen (prob a glitch but I was being safe). I also tried to avoid stealing or choking out in Rattay that early in the playthrough because getting caught doing crimes would tank my rep and make King Charming (80+ rep in each city) unreachable. For normal runs though, he is amazing to take out and he has my favorite pants in the game 💯 my favorite passive income is robbing Neuhof stables (all the horse tack), put it in Pesheks chest, and wait 5-6 IG days for it to turn. Roughly 10k each time
Dude that is dirty!!!! Have not those poor people at Neuhof going through enough trouble without waking up and finding their inventory stolen!!! LAMO! But that's what makes the game great there's so many different ways to play it!!! What's killing me is that I only found out about this game this year! And I'm finding out new stuff still!! I almost want to play another year, then by kcd 2!
I spent my first 1200 hrs on PS4, nightmareish to be sure. But I loved the game so much that I upgraded to the PS5 just for the sequel.But I still don't feel like I soaked up all of the KCD1 to play KCD2! Crazy.
I got the 100%, and platinum a few months back. Took me 230 hours. Respect for doing it in a single game!
Nice!! It's not an easy game to platinum so congrats!
@Griff_Gaming it's too much of a masterpiece to not!
KCD is one of those games I wish I could wipe from my memory just so I could experience it over and over again for the first time. Can't wait for KCD2!
Honestly, I've said that before. I wish I could experince KCD for "the first time" again. Hoepfully there are enough changes within KCD 2 to have that feeling again. Certainly seems like there are enough new features to make that happen!
@@Griff_Gaming I've just finished the whole vid, sad that the game deleted your save files :(
I've not looked up any info on kcd2, don't want anything spoiled for me. I think the thing I love about the first one is just the story, the silly quests and outcomes. I like that it's not serious and you can sleep with all different people, get the vicor drunk and wake up in random places when sleeping. I remember the game being really janky on release and it took me like 5 playthroughs to get all ps4 trophies, but the quest writing, voice acting and just general fun is what I love most about it.
If KCD2 ends up just being the same game in a different location I'll be super happy.
I have just found out that when ever you talk to the guards up to the skalitz castle gate the gambler near the tavern resets which is a way I believe to farm speech xp by betting with him
For the time skips when building: the tavern and the dice games always skip to the evening cause the cutscene that plays takes place in the evening.
Ah makes sense, good to know! I guess i haven't rebuilt Priby enough to ever notice, i always thought it would just drop in a certain amount of time later rather than base it on what you build. Useful though so you know to always build tavern stuff last so you don't get stuck at night!
2,200 hrs in.... And still learning new stuff!!!!!!! That's why I love this game!!!
Me too tbh! Never stop learning!
I have 200h+ and i did most of achi on my 1st save (normal Mode). Now im doin' 3rd run on HC and this is fun as hell :)
Also im learning new stuff too
Love this game, can’t wait for KCD2
Same here! Just about a month left!
I knew you were going to do this. Mad lad. So this is the reason for the lack of streams lately? How long did this take?
The run was about 80 hours, but between editing and everything closer to 140. On top of that everything was logged into Notion to go with a guide im making on Strat's channel so MAYBE close to 200 hours? It was a lot, on the bright side, streaming this weekend!!
Just started playing this game for the first time, watching this video is mind boggling
Haha once you get a hang of the mechanics the game becomes much more forgiving
this is one of the videos ever
Thank you!
Hey griff just a short question, I fell asleep and when I wokr up xou had the coolest cover for your horse. Where did you get it ?
Hey Dooom, that caparison is given as a quest reward by the head groom in Uzhitz for finding Pie (his lost horse)
4:35:25
Kurva means wh0re but here its often being used like if they said f*ck!..
Good to know!
@@Griff_Gaming ye i told you some time ago on chat its like cyka in russian XD,
btw respect for that video
I've heard some people use Kurwa like a comma lol
u r insane no cap
Don't I know it lol
Ay respect dude
Thanks Glory!
1:26 ok.. this transition was badasssssssss :D
I've tried luring black Peter up to the castle with the hopes that the guards would take care of him and it didn't work, so if it works for you I'm going to be surprised.
Yeah, no luck here either 😑
So i have a question with the mods you use. I tried downloading thro Votex and manual. but cant seem to get any of em to work all i get is a msg saying Since you installed the newest version of KCD we disabled your mods and moved them to Mod_old folder for you. any advice how to fix? i play on steam
i cant find a way to roll back the version of the game on steam
Not gonna lie, I'm not an expert on modding by any means but I haven't had this issue and I've been running the latest version of KCD since I started playing it on PC. I know there are certain mods that can't just go into the mod folder but otherwise maybe some Reddit threads might help? Sorry I can't be of more help
@@Griff_Gaming found a fix. was changing folder when mods where to mod_old. all you need to do is make a new Mods fold and copy and paste all your mods to the new folder and leave the mods_old as is dont delete it and mods now work. such a round about way but shit atleast i can mod now. keep up the great work with the videos they made me redownload and give the game a ago again after all this time!
Do the achievements not deactivate with the mods you installed? The picking up 10,000 herbs without that mod is going to be a pain!
How do you do it without mods disabling achievements? :)
So i play on PC and it doesn't seem to affect the mods. I think mods only affect console's ability to get achievements (i know Skyrim on console disabled trophies while running mods). Didn't have any issues unlocking things with this QoL mod list
Really pushing that 10 minutes mark
i platinumed this game too and damn that pacifist one is tough. can't wait for the second one!!
As a BIT of a spoiler, I did about 90 percent of these as a pacifist, not easy to do! But honestly shocking how much of this game can be done without killing!
how do you get perks for bow?
Perkaholic mod, link's in the description
Are you using a mod for extra perks such as for the the bow?
It's called perkaholic. It's in the description
Daayum brother 'tis gonna be a long vid getting ready with some snacks so i dont feel quite HUNGRY 😅
Hey, Panther's come to see us!!
@Griff_Gaming 😂😂
I 100%ed in two playthroughs. First save file in hardcore mode where I got almost all of the achievements (DLC included). Second save file to do the following pain in the ass achievements: Trial-and-error, Virgin and (the worst one by far) Merciful. It took me 200+ hours. i know the map by heart and can navigate it blind lmao.
Nice! Even in 2 playthrough's its a difficult game to 100% and honestly what makes it such a pain is the women's lot DLC. Between Full House Sinner and Cleric's Pet, you have to plan all your actions out so much to not void any other achievements like Virgin and Merciful
Im currently strughling on the ending of kcd. I admittedly started playing Spiderman again so Im out the kcd grindset and griff got me back on track
What's up Jess! I actually played a bit of Spiderman offline between this run lmao, maybe we can reverse roles, you get on the KCD grind, and I'll grind a bit of Spiderman lol
@@Griff_Gaming sounds like a plan I need to finish the game before kcd 2
Tbh, I never eat spoiled food in the game. I don't remember if I ever took the perk, might have if I had a leftover point, but I never use it. I often play survival sandboxes and I'm used to creating and following my own set of rules to slow down some aspects of the game or make it a bit harder or slightly more realistic. It makes me enjoy the games more. But, obviously, for a playthrough where you're focused on a specific goal and aren't just playing for immersion, it makes sense to use everything you can to your advantage.
In a lot of ways I do too, most games with survival elements don't have the option to even eat spoiled foods, first couple playthroughs it was more a QoL perk that made it so you don't have to always hunt. But I would do just fine in the game even if that perk wasn't around
Hy, how did you change the Hero's animation for herb collection?
It's a mod, check description for the link, it's called instant herb picking
2:11 how did you put that hood on??
It's a mod, mod list in the description
Really great walkthrough. Nice to watch. I am not even at the end.
But overall nice.
One little thing, if you cut between to two things or more, every little thing should ve at least 5 seconds long. If they are shorter sometimes it hurts my eyes.
But maybe i just become old.
I'll def keep that in mind if I do a run like this again. I used a software that cut all quiet parts that really helps save some time with editing (turning essentially what would have been 100 hours of editing down to about 30 hours instead) but went through at the end to clean everything up. I'll try to maybe tweak settings so it's not quite as aggressive and jarring between cuts. Thanks for the feedback!
Nice grind dude! Btw. how did u remove herb picking animation on PS? 😮
Thank you, unfortunately, its a mod for PC, no way to do it on PlayStation
Do you know if completing next to godliness voids the virgin trophy?
It does not
@@Griff_GamingThat’s great thank you, I tried looking online but people seem uncertain. I’ve been playing through the game simultaneously while watching this play through trying to get all achievements but thought I’d get some quests in Rattray out the way but didn’t want to risk losing the trophy. Once again thank you :)
Started watching the video again this evening and you literally mention it 10 minutes after when I stopped watching earlier 7:04:00 💀
2:08:35 all slavics have this and the basic meaning is just "ah fuck" but literally it's worse name to call someone a prostitute, like the cheapest one possible or something. At least in polish but I suppose Czech is the same.
I love how they almost use it as comic relief in the game. I think it's kind of like "cyka" in Russian. It means "bitch" but you can use it for pretty much anything
Hope youll do these things in kcd2 too:)
I love this game!
That's the plan!!
20+ hours. Sweet Jebus, what have you done Henry!
This full run was closer to 80 hours! 20 hours after editing out "dead space"! So much fun though!!
Finally, decently long enough video to scratch my autistic brain.
I see that you focus mostly on KC:D content but personally I'd love some other platinum in games made in this style by you. Without over the top edits, just great commentary to help others.
I do plan to expand to other titles too. I am still FAIRLY new to youtube (about 1 and a half years) which sounds like a long time but most of the established channels have been around 3-4 years. Once there's a solid focus on the channel, then I feel I can experiment with more titles! That being said, I think content like this will become more frequent on the channel since most times I do a challenge run, I've done either a live stream or just did it online and a heavily edited summary. Doing this can allow me showcase the entire run but also make more videos out of the footage as well (guides, etc)
a 20 hour video about KCD, TH-cam is targeting my autism 😂
🤣
How much did this video weight (in gigabytes, or, I guess, terrabytes)?
All in around 500 GB (about 80 hours of raw recordings along with the 21 hour edited that's posted here)
Why is Henry’s red scarf on his head like a hood?
It's a mod, I think it looks goofy with the scarfs but MAN it makes the black and green hoods when those are worn
21 hours video dayum
Shrunk down from almost 80 hours haha, this was a long one!
How do you disable the gather animation? I didn’t see it in settings 😅
It's a mod for PC. Check the description
Man I was on my second run and decide to stick with you on this one. I hate lvling alchemist again...
I'm with you on that one! That's honestly the most painful part of any run I want high alchemy! It's a grind for sure but luckily once you get above level 10, the benefits stay with you for the rest of the run. Till you have to do it all over again on the next one 🤣
I installed the map on hardcore and doesn't mess up with the achievements. Was getting lost all the time @@Griff_Gaming
How do you even edit 21 hours of footage?
By first starting with 80 hours of footage and editing it down to 20 lol. Honestly, there's an AI editor called Timebolt that uses AI to cut the silence. Made the process much simpler. Still had to go through remaining footage and manually edit out some sections but basically cut what would have been probably 50-60 hours of editing down to around 25 hours of manual editing
WHAT. THE. GRIFF.
What's up Anthony! Another crazy run done! lol
i go sleeping with this love it
Glad you're enjoying the run so far!!
The name Svatopluk doesn't really have a deep lore meaning aside from the fact that one of the meanings of the name is "strong warrior". It's a pretty normal old Czech name. You'll still find people with that name today 😄
Really? I've never met anyone with that name but hey, if I do, I now have some talking points 🤣
jesus christ this is an evening and a half
Yeah, she's a bit of a long one, everything is split into Episodes though so hopefully you can skip around or come back to points you might leave off at
Can you tell me how to reset the achievements in Steam?
Great run by the way, way to go!! 😁
Thanks!
This is the process I used:
th-cam.com/video/OvxYYkjGbvk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=pXmET1B_Og0EHluC
Instead of going through each one you can also type in reset_all_stats followed by the app ID to reset everything but it'll reset every stat in the game. Just FYI. Or you'll have to manually go through and clear each achievement one by one with achievement_clear
@Griff_Gaming You are my MOST VIEWED Channel for this whole year 😁, Thanks a lot 🤝
@swapnil3078 thanks for the support bud! Hoping to get every more content out in 2025!
2:08:40 kurva means whore in czech, but it's used generally as a cuss word.
Very diverse word then lol good to know!
@Griff_Gaming pretty much. Other word you might have noticed is "jebat" which translates as "(to) fuck". It and it's variants have just as wide usage as it's english counterpart.
I think chamomile is pronounced camo and then mile like in the measure of distance so camomile
It is, it's camo-miile but I have some messed up pronunciations. Like i keep flipping with grow-shen and grash-en but I've said it wrong for some long I can't get in the habit of saying it properly 🤣🤣
@@Griff_Gaming lol🤣🤣
Woohoo, watched all 21 hours! On double speed, of course...
Nice! 1st to finish!
20hrs is fucking monsterious lmao
It was a long run lol
15:25 this specific has biggest chance for 2
I had looked up the stats after, yeah it's weighted towards 2's which is even more worthless lol
I recommend switching to mouse and keyboard while lock picking it's hilariously easy
There's a feature on controller that allows for simplified controls that make it mimic mouse and keyboard. I've honestly done traditional for so long I just keep it the same. Plus I kind like the challenge it provides towards the start of the game, call me crazy lol
If there's one thing I learned in the first 10 hours that I watched it's that Griff is trying to not be too anal about things
My ADHD often takes priority over anything else I have planned 🤣
Jeeezzz doood 😅 you are psycho 😅 but im up with you, haha
Good to know I'm not the only crazy one in this community lol
@@Griff_GamingI am more than sure that all of us are from same psychiatric facility, God be with you! 😂
Make sure to platinum kcd2
For sure!!
Sees title:ooooh dear
It was a doozy!
it took me 10 days to watch all the way through this video. i loved the completionist walkthrough. but in the end, it was the save anywhere mod that got him. it's convenient but it breaks immersion, makes the game too easy and messes up the savegame system.
Yeah, honestly it's a gift and a curse. I'm honestly not someone that saves very often since I played on console for so long so I was only limited to the savior schnapps. The reason I honestly have it is because I do content creation. So as I'm playing I have mic and peripherals running and OBS studios recording while im playing (which crashes fairly often since most of the sessions I record in are around 8-9 hours at a time). It's just convenient if something goes wrong and obs crashes or the game crashes not having to redo 4 hours of recordings because I'm limited by when I can save. So while I do agree with you that I don't think someone playing for the immersion should do the unlimited saves mod, I'm constantly recording, testing, and I have mods installed that can make the game a bit unstable
I have over 100 hours into my first playthrough, and I'm still getting my ass kicked about halfway through the game on the normal mode😂
But I do like the game. Combat is hard to learn. I'm gonna start playing the tournament in ratay for 60 coins over and over til I get the combat technique down
It does get easier when you start to learn the mechanics. Master strikes help to make fights winnable and raising your Defense skill will increase the timing window of the master strike. I have a guide to help with defense if you're struggling. Then you can start to land your own offense when the timing is right (right after master strikes or clinches, otherwise the enemies might counter you).
Okay, I guess... last video before bed.
Haha just one more
Watched the whole thing and idk how to feel about that ending…
Trust me, I know....
you cant finish 2 game difficulties in 1 game
You don't have to for the platinum, just have to finish the whole thing on hardest difficulty
I got 100% (in one save minus dlc) on the PS5 it was not that bad just tedious when avoiding fights
I found a couple strategies in this run that I could still engage in fights without voiding the achievement, its a bit of an exploit but it kept this near 80 hour run interesting
@@Griff_Gaming yeah it’s a wicked game and worth the play and I look forward to the next. Thanks for the vid it’s really enjoyable
impossible you need to replay the game twice to 100% it unless you scroll back with saves and yes i did not watch this video :>
It's explained in the first minute of the video....
@@english_tomato watch the video uncultured swine
@@nick_plays22 SILENCE I WILL NOT
This is a great guide on not enjoying this game.
I actually enjoyed this run a lot! It's something different than a normal play through so forces you to adapt all the time
10:17:43
That's my current spot in the video
I buy is game today I am playing tomorrow
Nice, hope you enjoy!
Bro wtf 20 fucking hours
haha the total run was even longer, close to 80 hours lol
13:34:35 Waffen FROCK, Griff. Frock, as in a long, loose outer garment. Not a rock. :)
