EUROGAMER - 6/10
It doesn't help that throughout the early stages of the game, your stats often aren't good enough to succeed at literally anything. You are constantly failing left, right and centre, and only over time, through repeated head butts against the wall of progression, do you gradually, finally, gain the smallest of footholds. To say it's a grind isn't quite accurate, but it does take considerable effort and determination to muster the will to continue sometimes.

That said, no amount of time will ever make the interminably bad hang that is Hans Capon any more palatable to me. This boarish buffoon almost pips Goldeneye's Natalya as the companion I want most to see roast in the fires of eternal damnation, and he is easily the game at its most detestable - a lewd shrimp of a public-school posh boy whose childish, throw-his-toys-out-the-pram approach to any kind of obstacle made me wish I could stick him with the pointy end as soon as possible (or let him hang when given the chance), just like I could with its rest of its murderable cast. But you're stuck with this turd of a human for the long haul unfortunately, which put as much strain on my will to carry on as the game's obtuse stat systems.

There are many times I wish Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 was easier to like. Easier to get into, easier to enjoy, and easier to savour in the long-run - and that's before we get into the knotty briar patch of its director being a vocal supporter of a movement whose effects continue to cause real and tangible harm to the wider industry.

YEP. SOUNDS LIKE KINO IS ON THE MENU.

This is a quote from the review "There are many times I wish Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 was easier to like. Easier to get into, easier to enjoy, and easier to savour in the long-run - and that's before we get into the knotty briar patch of its director being a vocal supporter of a movement whose effects continue to cause real and tangible harm to the wider industry. But I also don't think it really cares about being liked, either. Which is fine, as I don't really much like it myself."

That is such a strange thing to say. What was the writer trying to say here?

So basically

i) Game too hard for casual bejewelled fan
ii) Can't figure out how to improve
iii) So will make throw-away comments about some sinister cabal type garbage.

This is how reviewing games works these days?

Sounds like one of the idiots that complained on this very forum wrote that review. Credibility out the window.

Every other review is 9/10 or 10/10 but this one is 6/10? Yea ok lol.

ooh the "journalists" give it scores like that eh? it will probably be good then
What is funny if Eurogamer gave it a 10/10 then these guys would be claiming it is just part of a woke agenda.
Eurogamer....who cares?

Eurogamer doing this is not surprising, Wukong got the same treatment.

This gives us hope that the game was not terminated at the end.

Yup. There is crowd of people who don't want to this game to be good. And will spin everything to make it so.
