KCD 2 is an interactive movie - 80% of playtime spent in cutscenes

[Charlemagne]

I don't believe in the game industry anymore, every major release is such a letdown. KCD 1 is one of my favorite games of all time, but I was struggling really hard to finish KCD 2

Most of the "gameplay" time is spent in cutscenes and being locked in dialogue. I was excited to explore the world, but instead I was greeted with a 5 minutes unskippable dialogues on horseback

When I finally arrived in Kuttenberg, I skipped every single side quest possible because I knew that I was going to be greeted with 15 minutes of yapping about some drama that I don't care about

Now that I finished the main story, I don't feel like I've played a game, I feel like I just watched a new season of a TV show. KCD 2 sucks, I'm never picking it up again

You can also design a game without all this yapping. No one cares about this hans capon crap, people just want to play the medieval life simulator and roam the world. Daniel Vavra's ego is too big to realize that. I hope he reads this topic, i'm sure he wants to know what people think of his "masterpiece"

Lol you're still here complaining a story based game has lots of story?
You don't maybe want to rather go play Fortnite? I get the idea you'd be much happening there

Lol you're still here batcomplaining about my topic

You can have a lot of story without pre rendered cutscenes and taking control of the player in every dialogue or interaction

This game is a complete waste of time.

Every activity, no matter how small, such as collecting herbs, forging and other things, is accompanied by a video. In the long run this is really annoying.

In addition, there are these absolutely rubbish combat mechanics, which were the last thing in the first part, but part 2 tops the whole thing again. I'm starting to wonder if Warhorse is even playing its own game and whether they paid all the streamers and YouTubers for a more than positive review.

60€ for a half-finished piece of crap. Which is neither beginner-friendly nor beginner-friendly, nor does it offer a certain amount of display options as to what is and isn't possible in the Game. Main and side quests are great, but if you don't have a color or level indicator for quests, then they become more than frustrating because you're "allowed" to load the last save game several times. If that's what Warhorse means by fun, then goodnight.

If the Game is just about making Progress by massively exploiting the game mechanics, then the manufacturers have understood nothing. There are enough videos on YT showing how you can level various skills to the maximum without any major problems, if that is supposed to be the Core of the Game, then they haven't really understood their job.

You are almost right there, probably only a few people who started with KCD2 care about Hans Capon, but almost nobody cares about the opinion of someone criticising the game in the Steam Forums (of all places) without even owning the game to begin with.
Well granted, maybe I am wrong, but if I would be in Vavra's shoes, I wouldn't listen to anyone not having bought the game, complaining about things (not) happening in the game.

Pretending not to care and actually not caring are two different things. His ego is too big for him not to care about what people say about his game

They retconned the main characters and completely unbalanced the lore. and the worst is having Vavra, Dale and MacKay crowing about it online pretending they have no idea what they did.

♥♥♥♥ this game man - ♥♥♥♥ that company. They create something amazing in the first game and now it's just a parody load of rubbish.

This game is so much better than one. But how would know, you've not actually played it.

Go to my account linked on my profile. lol. 103 hours, 100% achievements. I'm a better player than you

Only 103 hours and you somehow managed to 100%? I'm smelling a filthy save file cheater in our midst. Nice 29 hours you have actually though. If you don't like it, you can clearly go play something else which has been an option for many games that get released and people throw little tantrums.

And where are these agenda pushing things? I've not seen any of it, and I have 86 hours in the game. Please share some videos so I can also get my facts straight. Would hate to look like a fool and say things which just aren't true

But still. Story is the main reason why I am playing it.

OP is just another whiner. Instead of just playing something else they choose to make a stink on a public forum that has literally no connection to Warhorse studios actual team. If only they had the brains to go to their official Forums where their opinions, as poor as they may be, might actually be heard.

Impressive? No, just blatantly obvious it's not legitimate.

Anyone who has already finished the game on February 10th simply doesn't understand it!

Fact... what nonsense... honestly...

I've been playing the game for over 75 hours now, have only explored about 70% of the 1 map and don't feel ready to continue the main quest.

It's your own fault if you don't take the time for a game like this.

So... this is such a troll post...

You mean the quests are so boring that you decided to skip them and LARP instead? Lmao, thanks for proving my point
