One of the worst publishers out there, oh boy what have you done Warhorse.

KC2 will probably have Denuvo then in which case i'm not touching it. I own 2 copies of Kingdom Come: Deliverance but i refuse to support something that mess with my performance in games.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ you're right. I didn't know that because on the Steam shop page it says that Warhorse itself is the publisher. Thank you for giving me hope ;-)

Deep Fake Silver isn't the Deep Silver of KC:D 1. I hope it doesn't go ...exclusive

I think for KCD1 Warhorse did its own publishing or maybe hired Deep Silver for it. Then the Warhose company was sold to Deep Silver so they call the shots for KCD2.

Whats worrying is that in the meantime Deep Silver was acquired by THQ which got acquired or formed Embracer Group which went on shopping spree and acquired alot of subsidiaries and then went bankrupt and now reformed into a different group to avoid liability and now they are 5 smaller groups and they have to pick up Embracer Groups debt which is 2 billion dollares I think. Someone has to pay that debt so it is indeed worrying.

PS - keep in mind I might have confused some facts but thats more or less what the situation is right now. I think ;pppp

There would not be a steam page right now if this was going to be Epic Exclusie. Other games that have gone that route only put up a steam page closer to the end of the year long exclusivity period's end.

Also that doesn't happen as often anymore because Epic learned the hard way that wasn't a good business model. Every game that went epic exclusive happened because Epic paid money and promised a better split of sales than Steam does so they had to count on a much higher volume of sales which didn't go well with lots of players boycotting any game going epic exclusive.

tl;dr Game won't be exclusive, epic too broke to afford

I don't see a problem with that. After a couple of months you will get a steam release with all the patches, bug fixes and probably a discount for the complete edition.

I know this won't be a buy for me. I am just here to see the fire and blind simping for the game after it releases.

Just you wait till Deep Silver finds a way to charge you for that privilege too ;p

Just saw this as well... and I'm really worried now, too...

Deep Silver is on my blacklist ever since the first exclusivity incident with Metro Exodus... and I told myself never to purchase a game from them again.

They did it with a bunch of other games as well, like Dead Island 2... and when they hit Steam a year later, they charge full price as if it was a brand new game and even still force you to install Epic... which I find is an absolute despicable practice.

Welp, I guess I have to forgo this one... What a shame.

KCD2 is coming to Steam day 1 and will come to GOG as well.
Deep Silver also published first KCD (console versions).
Deep Silver is completely hands-off when it comes to Warhorse. Warhorse have full creative control.

To be fair, Metro Exodus and Dead Island 2 are great games. Second, if this was going to be exclusive then why does it already have a steam page? And third, it isn't unusual for a game that's only been out for one year to still be full price. Much better than Black Ops being like 40 still or whatever it is.
Jegedillo Jul 27, 2024 @ 7:46am 
Look at Black ops 2. Came out in 2012 and is still 60 dollars. One year with no price drop is not a ripoff when you look at publishers like Activision.
