Hey Metatron! Great to see a reaction video from you. We surely remember your visit in our Studio, now we're in a new office, which is a bit bigger and nicer than the old one. And yes, Johanna Nowak is still our historical consultant. :)
neat
Among other things; I spent a week in a monastery, grinding herbs and doing chores. I don’t have such vivid memories of any other game I have ever played.
If you guys have kept, or even improved on, the level of immersion I might just not sleep for a month come release 😅
Maybe metraton could visit warhorse Studio again, you know for some promotional material 😉
Probably too late, but you should hire and listen to Metatron as a consultant on historical elements like the things he brings up in this bideo!
Thanks for doing something so unique and entertaining. I have been waiting for this sequel.
1) The devs have revealed, that lowering the visor will be optional and human controlled in KCD2.
2) Info about the combat system is pretty scarce, but the devs have revealed, that they will abandon the 5 directions system and replace it with a 4 directions system. They are a bit mysterious about it, but they did say, that it should be slightly easier to pick up, but promise, it will be as hard or harder to master than in the first game. One of the things mentioned for instance is slightly more benevolent timing for combos in the new game.
3) The protagonist a classic blank slate character, but Daniel Vávra is actually represented in the first game as he did body acting for sir Hanush.
4) The first one did have a Kickstarter campaign, but that was more to show that there is demand for that kind of game to acquire further funding, because their requests for funding were being denied because a medieval game with (little to) no fantasy elements was considered too risky by all the major players. Now they do have funding and there is no need for another Kickstarter campaign. The company now belongs to the Embracer group.
Hope embracer doesnt do the EA thing on warhorse. Or the thing they did to the devs of Insurgency.
Embracer? how do they still exist then?
@@jormungand72 which company? Embracer or Warhorse? And if you mean warhorse, Embracer didnt close every company that they bought and they didnt fire employees. I suppose they fired the employees and closed the companies that didnt seem "worthy" to be spending money on. Tho i think that the devs of insurgency didnt get laid off.
@@jormungand72 didnt fire employees on every company*
I hate Embracer...
Henry is great because he’s literally his actor.
The same with Sir Hans/Luke Dale! The two both auditioned for Henry and the right choice was made, giving us the bromance of all video games.
They did change the appearance to resemble the actor of Henry. You can find the early look of Henry used in development and he looks completely different. I seem to vaguely remember that one of the devs mentioned, that was intentional, in an interview somewhere, but I might be wrong.
Something about him is inherently funny to me, and I love the southwest England accent with the rhotic R's
@@volusian95 yea southwest english accent is gurt lush
and that voice is just legendary
Metatron being happy and excited is such a cool change from his everyday grumpy and disappointed. Goes to show that when passionate people make products for other passionate people, beautiful things come to life. As rare as it may be.
real. Stopped watching this channel for a while cause of the nonstop doom&gloom, so it's nice seeing him excited
It is nice to see yes.
He comes by his regular annoyance honestly though. This current age with its politicizing and manipulating of history to shoehorn trans, gay and gender theory into it is annoying to me but to someone who knows it as well as he does it must be maddening..
Holy moly, Metatron is 42, which explains the weird bones craking sounds in the video...
yeah he looks 30
Nah he definitely looks older than 30, if I were to guess without knowing I'd give 36-37 minimum
🤣 Hey he's 42 but he's a young 42!
I was thinking 35, go metatron!
@@teresamerkel7161dawg he looks 30-35
Everybody is blown away by the fact that there were just 11 people working at Warhorse but Daniel Vávra unfortunately didn't explain it very well in the announcement. Warhorse started with 11 people but when the first KCD was finished they had around 150 people working on it. Also the first game wasn't really funded by the Kickstarter campaign. They just needed to convinced their investor that there's enough demand for a purely medieval historically accurate game and since the campaign was a huge hit the investor was satisfied and funded the development of the game. Warhorse were later sold to THQ Nordic. My cousin works in the company as a concept artist and the fact that they were sold didn't influence the company in any negative way apparently. So hopefully the second one will be great. I'm really hyped for it 🙂
I think it was about 120? When KCD1 was finished? On average probably 60-70 people worked on it.
@@arminius504 Not sure about the precise number but it just wasn't 11 people. That was a bit misleading but I know it wasn't intentional. What Dan Vávra wanted to say was that they started with 11 people but everybody took it the wrong way.
@@martinzemek5798 Yeah, this is right. 11 people at the beginning, about 120 when the game got released.
@@WarhorseStudios , Jesus Christ Be Praised
@@WarhorseStudiosLove you guys
Fun fact in the first game there's this engineer named Konrad Kyeser who builts a trebuchet to help with the siege and he says he has an idea for cannons you can hold but our commander says they don't have black powder around these parts. At least they gave a reason as to why there isn't any, but the crossbow is still a mystery
It was planned but cut from the game because they couldnt make it work in time
They wanted crossbows for the first game, tried to implement them, but had to scrap them for budgeting reasons.
OMG, I pray they bring him back just so I can hear Brian Blessed. Warhorse really understood and went all out on the assignment. The game is an utter masterpiece as is but they also threw him into mix. He’s famous for his role in black adder as the king and just exudes a wholesome, larger than life, medieval vibe. Warhorse as a studio must have some kind of magic crystal ball, or a phone number for the Lords heavenly secretary as they; created a 24K golden artwork, adorned it with gemstones and other lavish and luxurious items, popped it up on 150ft marble pedestal, and then proceeded to get right to work on the next. They are genuinely a role model for all other studios and deserve all their praise, respect and success.
It's actually well made that Konrad Keyser was in game because he was from 1402 "somewhere in Bohemia" so they use it and we have him in game 😂
@@jamesh1758 Yep, would luv to see Brian Blessed back as the engineer
I am unsure about the buildings in KCD1 being smaller, but most of them are actually larger. They have a lot more space inside houses, stairs are a lot more spacious in the game, towers, ramparts, etc. I remember actually Vavra mentioning it that they know it is inaccurate, but when they made realistically small houses, staircases and so on, they had problem with the character being unable to move.
Yeah, navigation would be a nightmare.
I believe that’s why game doors r so big as well, in all games, which usually makes ceilings higher as well
Think he's referring not so much to shops and huts, but to architecturally significant buildings
Yeah, that's one of the concessions to historical accuracy they had to make in favour of gameplay. With perfectly historically accurate architecture, every NPC would have to crouch slightly when passing through a doorframe, which would just break the game.
@@qwertyuiopasdfghjklzxcvbnm3937 yes, that is another thing - some doors in middle ages were shorter and smaller. In KCD and other games, all doors are perfect for the player to enter without the need to bow down, but that was in many cases not possible. And it is not because people were shorter, they were short, but not that short.
One day, my friend and I visited an ancient castle in the Czech Republic. I don't remember the exact name, but something was connected with the word "Melnik". The castle had its own winery, and we all got drunk. The guide told us that the castle was returned to the previous owner, and now the duchess lives here. We all started looking for this duchess, it turned out to be an elderly woman who was drinking with us all the time. The whole group wanted to take a picture with her and asked her to put on jewelry and a crown, which, according to her, she did not have.😂
That is exactly why I travel so much
Yes it's Mělník
There ain't dutches in CZ. Use of feudal titles is forbidden by law from 1918.
@@vendasch666 yes I think he meant that the person was from noble family rather than using the title, as in Czech republic we have many noble house's just not officially usable titles
@@vendasch666Kníže Karel Schwarzenberg wants to know your location.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance is one of the best games ever made. I'm eagerly awaiting the sequel! Excited to see how Henry's story progresses.
Czechs are good pick for medieval historical game, because unlike many US companies they actually know history.
good game. watched it. bought it now. gets pretty buggy sometimes and the combat is not very intuitive
@@TheRezro it's not that. US companies can have historians and pretty good ones. but as any visual product, it's the amount of tropes they decide to implement that would often peak the sales. bcz marketing is a thing in AAA games
@@YandreYak Yes. But the problem is also accessibility of people with actual socialistic knowledge about topic. Naturally it is way easier to find experts about Wild West and Pioneer times in US, then about medieval Europe. Though gradually understanding of the period become way better in US.
I really like the development between Henry and Hans in the first game. They begin as squabbling young men, pitted against eachother due to their differences in social class and all that.
But as they spend more time together they go from master and servant to being really good buddies getting into all sorts of trouble together.
I especially like how Hans goes from being an obnoxious fop to being revealed as a more sympathetic and generous guy too. It's just a good feat of writing and character development.
I hated him at first but he was my favorite character in the end lol
@@John-mf6kyfor me I always knew hans was based. Even when he was an ass he was funny.
Not only is Metatron beautiful on the outside, but his humility illuminates his beauty from within, making it even more radiant.

@@DylanJo123 Thanks!
@@DylanJo123you wish you were as gorgeous as Metatron
if only i could be so grossly incandescent...
What kind of AI generated bot content is this
Sweet!!! The first one was so much fun. Hopefully the battles will be bigger. With sieges and everything.
Originally, they wanted massive battles but various factors made it impossible.
So, maybe that will happen with this one.
Also the combat a wee bit less janky
It looks awesome so far. I can't wait until it comes out.
I'm not a gamer but this looks great fun!! The little insignificant nitpick I have is that the blacksmith was holding red hot steel (even if the tang looked grey it would still be insanely hot) with his bare hand!? He would need tongs and a thick leather gauntlet/glove do cope with the heat conduction involved, these guys were tough but they still burnt like us. As for the bows, the longbows never had any wrapping as you pointed out, the one picture of a bow with a 'grip' is a composite recurve bow (horn, sinew, wood, fish bladder glue, resin etc..) and would have a grip as shown.
You aren’t the only one who noticed the blacksmith with apparently iron hands.
Those were definitely not longbows (of the English type) if for no other reason that the stance and posture of the archers was completely wrong. Recurve bows are entirely appropriate for an eastern European region of the era, and so are crossbows of course.
@Metatron we need to start a petition to get a character in the game of you maybe a npc by a smithing station that says stuff like - no no no thats not accurate it goes like this 😂
This would be awesomesauce. 😂
Make him an Italian immigrant in kuttenberg lmao
This makes me proud about being a Czech
🇨🇿 Same here. Kingdom Come is great.
You and me both.
taky
Přesně
Why would you? You're not involved in the making of the game.
Question about the engine. They're using a highly modified version of Cry Engine, so modified it might as well be it's own engine. Definitely not Unreal Engine though.
We are gonna love watching you play and critique. Rock on, Dude. I love seeing the pride and joy reflected in their announcement, and rightfully so. Bravo!
If KCD2 is set before 1419, I can predict what the developpers have in mind for a possible KCD3.
Set it in Prague (logical increase in size over Kuttenberg) during the Hussite Wars.
I think the devs stated that the story of Henry of Skalitz will conclude in KCD2. One way or another all of the plot threads will be weaved into a hopefully satisfying tapestry.
Although if the second game will be a major hit with a wider audience to the same degree that the first game was with its niche fans, I definitely think the studio will at least consider making another game in the genre, or even a sequel focused on a different main character.
That'd be awesome! Imagine defending a Hussite wagon fort or alternatively attacking one.
Oh no you know how f*cking big Prague is the game would have to only be set in the city of Prague or have a completely seperate map.
I think there won't be another game in Prague, because of its size and the creators' obsession with realism. For example, in Kutenberg, they allegedly dropped 4 streets against the historical reality and they were unhappy about it. They would have to make Prague a third. A studio with 250 people is big, but compared to the biggest ones, it's still quite a bit smaller. Daniel Vávra said in an interview that Prague would only be possible to create with the further development of IA.
@@fillosof66689 Given that they positioned themselves as a "historical games studio", similar to how other studios get a reputation for their niche style then bring it to wider audiences by sticking to it (very recently Larian with CRPGs for instance, or once upon a time Bioware), I wouldn't be surprised if they stuck to their guns. Maybe another era, another area, but I'd wager they will stick to "bringing history to life" in their games. The 30 years war or the Napoleonic wars (Austerlitz is in modern-day Czech republic) could be a big pan--European project for instance (and the EU loves that stuff, so it's a non-negligible source of funding). CDPR got EU money for The Witcher 3 Blood & Wine DLC for instance, on the grounds that it was spreading folklore, culture (showcasing both Polish folklore and modern literature, and a France-adjacent culture) and showcasing modern capability on the continent. You can see the Creative Europe Media logo in the trailer).
Me and my wife love the KCD 1 and can't wait for the second part. This is one of the rare examples of game done right without any woke nonsense whatsoever.
It is going to be woke for part two.
I bought KCD1 when it came out, but put it on the back burner for years until I upgraded my PC fully. Few months ago I played it incessantly for 130 hours. What a game. So excited for number 2.
The polishing service for armors sounds like something doable since they had a laundry service in the first game where you could clean your clothes and armor for a charisma buff.
They could add a similar service for armor smiths where they can enhance the look of your armor and maybe fix dents in it.
The view of the helmet can be controlled whether it is folded down or not using a button. One of the creators of the game said so in an interview.
I hope The same Button can Be used to pull The Hood up or down, while using a Hood with no other headgear
@@anttitheinternetguy3213Probably not. Because it is a game with a firstperson view. The hood doesn't impair your view, so you can't see it. The hood can be removed as a layer of clothing only in the inventory. I see no reason why it should be different in KDC 2.
@@martinsacha3229 for role playing reasons, its an rpg after all! If There is a Button to lower The visor its propably useless without an helmet, so why not use it to pull your Hood up or down, i always hoped to Be able to use The Hood pulled over your head in kcd 1. And there is a mod or glitch to do it If i remember correctly
@@anttitheinternetguy3213 Technical reasons. There's only so many buttons on a controller (less of an issue on PC, but the game's functions have to translate across platforms). Given that hood and helmet are most likely in different equipment slots, there would be a need to assign different commands for that. Given there is no gameplay reason to do it, they likely won't. What could be done is a prompt in the inventory when you equip the hood to ask if you want it up or down, or a simple command in the inventory menu. But an in-play shortcut seems to be more hassle than it's worth to create.
EDIT: I wouldn't be surprised however if our friends on the modding scene came up with something on PC. Considering the game uses CryEngine (or a heavily modified version of it), the game files should be accessible and somewhat easy to modify, from AI to textures or values. It's not the easiest out there, but reasonably so compared to others. You just need a solid coding knowledge, provided the studio doesn't too heavily encrypt files or modify the engine to breaking point.
Edit edit: made a short dive and it turns out it might be slightly more complicated because the engine is so modified that even the latest official CryEngine updates aren't compatible with KCD's version. So you'd need old timers that are familiar with it and have the old tools (unless the studio provides the tools, which isn't unheard of).
@@martinsacha3229your camo stat, don’t remember the actual name but using a brown hood with the downside being it makes you more conspicuous is smart. It would also work if they make rain a significant factor, like getting drenched makes you sick or something which I could see them doing, or if during winter you need it to stay warm (doubt there will be seasons but a guy can dream)
Back in the early noughties, games frequently featured actual actors, rather than CGI NPCs. I was surprised to see my co-worker talking to me from my computer, calling me 'General' and such... He was one of the grunts in the game Krush Kill n Destroy and like most actors, he worked in hospitality to make ends meet.
Kingdom Come Deliverance is easily one of the best games I have ever played. Spent countless hours on it despite it being single player. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Warhorse Studios!
The confirmed information directly from Dan Vávra is that the visors of helmets will be possible to open and close freely without having to remove the helmet. However, the open space will be less protected.
I loved almost every single thing about kcd. A few things here and there that were intentional, I installed mods to "Fix". But overall I love how hardcore they are in the whole rpg experience. Of course the sequel will be grander in scale, because warhorse means business and want to continue growing. But i hope to use henry's blacksmithing skills. I want to see not just bigger battles, but things to make the game more replayable. More things to do that are continous and keep the game alive for longer. Like owning a bussiness or something. Like making and selling weapons for money in your own shop. Doing caravan guard jobs, running a bakery etc
Wow, thank you for this! I love your channel and I love KCD!
Pretty sure in KCD 1 the visor would change like on the basinet when you went into combat and it did really limit your vision and peripherals.
Probably the most immersive game I've played
It does yes, but it’s auto not user input
Also it’s didn’t show you raises the visor during cutscenes
It is most proper to have firearms in the game. Apart from Hussite wars (which were only years in coming at first installment's time frame) where firearms were famously used to great effect, the Bohemians seem to have been early adapters of new firearms later on as well: for example the English language has (among many others) borrowed the word _pistol_ from Czech language, since these new short guns came to cavalry use there in late 15th century. You might want to Czech out more into this etymology sometime Metatron!
I see what you did there
In the time of the first game it had only been 4 years since Czechs first mentioned firearms, and due to a lack of salt Peter they didn’t adopt firearms until closer to the Hussite wars
i love the sword combat in the game it feels like i am in the medieval age
wouldn't most of them NOT have been fighting with swords?
@@theforsakeen177swords were very common
Swords were very expensive, just like (good) armor.
@@theforsakeen177You can fight with maces and war hammers in KCD 1 right?
@@evertjan9479depends the well made swords was expensive, but cheaply made swords was more common.
So hyped for KCD2, great video! Thanks
I just finished KCD last Saturday. The experience is awesome! For a game that was released years ago still holds up in 2024. Looking forward to play KCD2! Jesus Christ be Praised!
lol its only 6 years lol thats not at all very long , but im supposing you're a young feller and six years would be a large potion of your life , but for me its less than an eleventh of my lifetime (so far) im 67 (almost old enough to have met Henry in person lol lol lol lol)
@strpg9938 i think KCD still looks good , but im fairly fanging for KCD2, just hope it comes out before i die!!! ( im pretty ill and will not ever get better )
@strpg9938 thank you , i know i will enjoy kCD2 i immensely like i did KCD
There was a trebuchet in the first game. Played quite a big role at the end of the game.
The combat system, according to developers, should be more versatile. If you fight with an axe, you probably won't need that many skills and combos, but with the sword techniques, you really may go down the rabbit hole, if you want. You'll also be able to forge your own weapon.
Those early firearms will be really difficult to use and quite unpredictable. The may blow into your face and scare people and animals. But if you manage to hit somebody, it's game over for them.
Sounds great
You'll also have a button for opening the visor
@@anoNEMOs Christ be praised.
Super excited for KCD 2. I love the presentation as well, OMFG I cannot wait!
Hi Metatron! It's good to see that you like KCD as much as the youtuber whom I learned about KCD in the 1st place. When you were talking about crossbows, I got so happy because I've seen the trailer before & know there are crossbows in KCD2. I was waiting to see your reaction that there are indeed crossbows! I was so happy to see your face light up!
Interesting thing to note, when I saw KCD streamed, Henry was not that good looking to me. I don't know if the game devs did that on purpose to show the lack of confidence & how everything was affecting him. When I saw the trailer for KCD2, the actor is sooooo handsome. Even in KCD2, Henry looks wayyyyyy better. It reminds me of how the game devs show Henry learning to read in KCD, you see the words make more sense as you level up Henry.
Hey, its Henry! Henry has come to see us! (I just met Henry 2 minutes ago)
Glad to see manuscript miniatures get a shoutout.
Been using that for a while.
I found you (and Shad) because of this game, Metatron. I personally wish you both had reviewed the game more. I'd love to hear your analysis if you decide to do it this time. And, yea, I'm actually hyped for this. Normally, I'm not the "get hyped" type but this game is the exception.
Would be cool if Metatron would replay the first one and do more of a deep dive on his experience with and opinion on the game. Especially since he could now review all the DLCs.
I'd be in for that. :)
We are the same age my Sicilian brother. I’m so excited for this game. Spent hundreds of hours in the first game. So excited.
Man, Metatron I love you dude. Your comments and insights are something I enjoy a lot since I get to learn a ton. Btw we now have a dedicated button to put the visor down or up.
Glad to hear it!
I’d love if there was a cutscene enforcing the big fish in a small pond as a local hero becoming kingdom widely reknown, such as if Henry never seen cannons and firearms, being utterly confused by how they work at first and being utterly shocked at the near instant power of a cannonball.
I really do need to play the first game sometime. Ended up getting it and all its DLC over at GOG recently. Sounds like I won't regret it!
One of the best RPGs of all time. The soundtrack 🤌🏻🤌🏻 So immersive. You will not be disappointed.
You definitely wont regret it. For me it's "better Skyrim".
Just beware the combat is like nothing you saw before and you need to understand it and train it.
Skyrim blows @@Nathan_Coley
KCD definitely brought me back the feeling from Oblivion though the actual better Skyrim
@@FlyingNazgul-wm1dv Skyrim was my first exposure to the franchise.
As a czech myself i am incredibly hyped for the sequel, but one little thing that i noticed just now is that when you were talking about the bow wrapping, the arrow is notched incorrectly, the fletching should be flipped and should be pointing away from the bow
In Viking fighting reenactment we speak a lot about that actually. And also how everyone seems to want to look like a King or Earl.
Tbh it would only be weird if most people wanted to always play a poor peasant in their fantasy lives.
@@Wintermute909 reenactment is not LARP.
Similar to a couple of Airsoft players I knew.
Everybody wants to portray special forces, commandos and other "Elite" units.
I personally prefer the common infantry grunt.
Metatron is such a beautiful soul. Love the man and Warhorse Studios, too. Cant wait for KCD 2.
Warhorse is easily in my top 3 for game developers. and I am a game developer...
I wonder if there will be a KCD3, if not what their next project will be. I would love to see them make a sengoku jidai game.
There is certainly potential to enter actual Hussite wars, which is like coolest period in Czech History. Many people were expecting we will already see it in KCD2
They already confirmed that visor on the helmet will get its own button so you will be able to open or close it on your terms, not just closed automaticly in battles and for some reason while talking to NPC's.
Also 3 types of crosbows will be there.
Been waiting for this.
I would love for Warhorse to explore in the same way other periods in history..... imagine Henry and Hans living through Rome, Egypt, Greece, Hyksos etc. That would get folks really immersed in history and ancient politics.
I was waiting for your reaction
Fun fact, the cutscenes for the first game, the ones that were prerendered were done in Blender. I've actually watched some courses that he made on creating a realistic environment.
Tbh I saw some articles about this which made me uneasy. But your opinion is what matters because you're a historian. So, since the series is focused on historical accuracy, a historian's opinion matters the most.
What were the articles saying?
What articles?
@@nietzchepreacher9477 that it was going to be "diverse".
@@SergioLeonardoCornejoThat’s all ragebait and anyway diverse refers to the different ethnicities that would’ve been in and around Kuttenberg
I dont have too much of an issue if it's a bit diverse if they justify it but I remember this being a big thing when the first came out and the main lead dev (danial vavre who's in this video I think at the end) basically saying fuck off to any articles saying it needed to have diversity. So I wouldn't worry if that's your thing. Probably ragebait
Yes!!! I’ve been looking forward to your response ever since I first saw the trailer.
Jesus Christ be praised.
Hey, look, it's Henry.
I started a replay of kcd because of this trailer. LET'S GO!!!!!
I was wondering if you'd do a KCD2 video 👀
Edit: Henry's come to see us!
Great point on the bow wih wrapping. Having tried a few medieval bows it really isnt even necessary. The grip is good enough without any wrapping.
some of the bows are very tough to draw. Nothing like a modern compound bow. Lots of training needed if you want to hit the target reliably. It makes sense that crossbows took over.
Please take a look at Manor Lords as well!
The studio is 250 now... but if this game blows up world wide as I believe it will... they will be expanding massively. Never played the first game.. now it is a bit old.. but I will 100% be buying a PS5 to play no.2
@@wintersbane9185 this the last game in the story. It was originally going to be an trilogy however they combine the story of the first two games into the first game.
Jesus Christ be praised!
I love how Kingdom come has collectively become the history communities favorite game lol in a time where historical titles aren’t as popular as say fantasy. So I respect Warhorse for being brave enough to try to be historically accurate as many from the historical community will scrutinize their game like the first one. You can’t get every little detail right but they do put a lot of effort into getting as much as they can right and I really appreciate that
Jesus Christ Be Praised
The prayer part of the trailer I adore, as thats my accent and it actually sounds like people I know for once, usualy my accent in media is more like a caricature
First!! Love you, Metatron!!!
Aren't you lucky haha my comment posted 5 seconds behind yours
Thanks for the video man . I finished the first one , just found out about second part. There are two games that I'm exited about right now , Frostpunk 2 and Kingdom come deliverance 2 . Yes sir!
8:51- a common historical goof which even the mighty Metatron missed- hangman's nooses of that sort were not a medieval thing, in fact only came into existence in the 19th century with the advent of trap-door gallows, and drop hanging designed to break the neck. the multiple (traditionally 13) wraps create a stiff "lever" which displaces the skull and upper vertebrae sideways. In the Middle Ages (and long after), they used a simple slip knot, intended to strangle the condemned.
I had a full happy childlike moment while watching it was great. After seeing so many things that I loved gutted and destroyed. I was so happy to see this so far. Keep it up Warhorse Studios.
Same
Any chance of a playthrough on the channel? Watching someone who understands medieval history could really be a fun experience.
It seems the wind of fate, in accordance to the TH-cam algorithm, has pushed many videos from you lately Metatron. I'm so glad.
The actors you see or Henry and Han Capon are the their voice actors (at least if you play the game in english). Could be that they also did motion capturing. But either way, the developers decided to make those 2 characters look like their voice actors. IDK if it is the same with other character of the gme.
The game is set in the town of Kuttenberg (Kutná Hora). You hearabout it in the first game, but in the 2nd part you will be there. Henry will get more dragged into the conflict between Wazlav and Sigismund for the imperial Throne.
I am also very excited. I love Med Eval games. From Lords of the Realm to Knights of Honor 1+2 over Medival TW 1+2 and Manor Lords and Kingdom Come.
Sorry if I have to say that historical accuracy is not as important to me, as long as it has an atmosphere that drags me into the game a well as the fun while playing it. Because if video games should do 1 thing above all, it's to make fun!
10:10 YUP, they are apparently adding in a visor toggle so that you can raise and lower the visor when you want. 24:50 too bad, they have some nice content on the city of Kuttenberg later on in the video plus more crossbow, gun and fighting content.
Hey Raph, I have an idea on how you could go about the armored playthrough of KCD 2 if you decide to do it.
Instead of just wearing some armor while playing the game, you should change armors irl to match the armor that Henry is wearing in game. Of course, it does not need to be an exact replica, just get it as close as you can with the stuff you already have. So if Henry is wearing basic civilian clothing in the game, you should wear that irl. If you wear a kettle helmet in the game you put one on irl as well. Once you get plate armor in game, put your armor on irl, etc.
Another extra "challenge" that you can do is that you keep the game running while you are changing armors irl, so if you loot a better armor from bandit no. 1 while bandit no. 2 is aproaching, you cannot just pause the game and put the better stuff on unles you decide to cange the armor irl as well. This could lead to a gameplay where you need to consider your moves more carefully and also test how the trope of changing armor while adventuring alone (in almost all games, not just KCD) actually works.
It's so exciting to see the places that I've been to, like Kuttenberg or those twin towers - a castle today called Trosky (meaning literally: The Ruins) - rendered in the game, during their peak glory.
So excited for this! While I never did finish it I really enjoyed Kingdom come deliverance. Amazing atmosphere that pulled you into the past like no other game! Can’t wait to see how this second game may improve on gameplay and facial details!
Looking forward to KCD 2, started the first game when the trailer came out (since my PC can handle it for a bit (longer with a fan blowing on it))
I am unbelievably hyped. This is a guaranteed buy along with all the DLCs.
You should definitely do a KCD play through, Id watch that. I recently bought the game , I was unsure about first person but omg itis amazing and so much fun even though I've just made it to the other town and slept 😊
The polish level idea would definitely fit into the charisma system they already had in the 1st game where how clean and hygienic you are affects how ppl treat you. I could even see the possibility of you want to have good polished armour when dealing with high nobility etc, but maybe not too good in case you embarrass them (if you are supposed to be lower in the hierarchy) etc. But that probably would be a level to advanced for a video game.
I love Kingdom come😢♥️🙏Please KCD2😢
Due to the growth of their studio I hope that it pays off. The Knights of Old know we need this with the state video games are in now. I look forward to trying this game.
This period in czechia gave name to firearm which was called píšťala ( flute ) pistala - pistol and field-gun houfnice ( gaggle ) to howitzer.
Playing KCD now and agree about reenactment - bandits wear armor better than most of knights in this game and it strange. Well, the other way it's a reason why I have great brigantine and plate armour on my level :)
I also afraid of Cumans' aesthetics because in first game they looked like it's XIII century and they leaved steppes fleeing Mongol horde just now.
UPD: found official screenshots and there's same problem: freaking XIII century's Qipchaks.
Most of the bandits are actually trained troops and many of them were are robber barons. The bandits near your old home of S have high end gear
Its awesome to see a foreigner fanboy over czech art. GJ warhorse. Bůh požehnej vám.
4:58 "YOU !"
(with some doom's lair vibes)
Dated armor is relatable and realistic. I joined the US Marines before 9/11 and was issued an old Vietnam style flak jacket.
I am so looking forward to this!!! The game, the history, the world!
Closest thing we have to time travel!!😮😊
Time for another play through! The first one is a top 3 fav game of mine. I can’t wait
What I honestly would love to see is a camping system to allow the player to, well... camp out in the woods -- for lack of a better term -- when out on quests and the like. Being forced to find civilization in order to sleep through the night or random permanent camps to rest was a little weird. To be fair though, the only times I had a legitimate wish for such was when once fast traveling to a location I got stopped by a random event of a skirmish between Cumans and presumably bandits or mercenaries I wanted to loot the remains.
About 200 kilos later I had to walk all the way to Sasau which took effectively all the night to do so; horse and myself overburdened with loot. Just slowly doing a midnight hike. It would have been nice to be able to find a secluded spot and camp out for the night for visibility's sake alone.
What would be nicer than camping however would be a more efficient and fluid combat system. The reason being two fold with the first being I assume obvious; better combat. The second for me would be the option to be a better swordsman to be able to survive with overall less armor. The idea of Henry traveling all over the place wearing a full harness twenty four seven was a little bizarre, and I've always appreciated the light-on-your-feat traveler's kit that's more reminiscent of Lord of The Rings in spirit. Even in post-apocalyptic games like Metro or Fallout I've preferred loud outs that are feasible to actually carry as opposed to over powered area denial weapons.
Even though they're cool.
Kingdom Come was such an amazing game! Im so excited to hear theres a sequel otw.
Henry's come to see us!
I hope they have really cool painted designs on some of the armor, Super hype
I don't comment often but I love your channel and I admire your persona a lot! I'm very hyped for KCD2, I enjoyed the first one too, but this looks like a great path-forward and general improvement overall
Excellent video-reaction Metatron!
Greetings from a fellow Italian 😁
I found out about your TH-cam channel thanks to KCD 😀
The crossbow sold me. So glad they got crossbows to work. Firearms are also neat.
I suspect the reason they didn't have crossbows in the first game was due more to budget/technical limitations. They were only a new studio making their first game together on a limited budget so some sacrifices had to be made. Daniel Vavra does say in this trailer that the first game wasn't the complete experience they wanted to make, and KCD2 fixes that.
Terrific stuff. Looks like they will have the setting heavily concentrated around substantial urban environments in this one. Primarily Kuttenberg. That wonderful depiction of the architecture is going to be front.
Yeah... Daniel Vávra founded the warhorse and he was the great mind behind this game (also he plays one of the minor roles in KCD1)... And before that he made the Mafia games... He's a great guy
I got the collector's edition as a gift when the first KCD came out. Watched this trailer with my partner, and he said "well I won't have trouble finding your Christmas gift". He knows me well indeed x)
I'm looking forward to the game for sure.
So much so in fact that I have installed KCD 1 a few days back and I'm doing another playthrough in preparation - something I haven't done in years.
