I'm not surprised.

Ok, let me break it down for you.

The definition of a chore, 'a routine task, especially a household one.' and 'a tedious but necessary task.'

We are talking about game mechanics that are tedious but a necessary routine task. You are talking about your son thinking that fractions are tedious (which you should educate your son the correct meaning by the way) but you find them easy, which is fantastic (if you are fishing for complements).

Please tell me how they are related?

You said playing KCD is a chore, and that's your opinion (wrong as it is) to which you're entitled to. Soyer tried to tell you that what may be a chore to some/you definitely is not for others and in the process exposed you for the bitter simpleton that you are.

Wow name calling, very mature of you.

It is not just my opinion (no one can state some ones opinion is incorrect by the way, only agree or disagree), it is many people on this forum, check out the search function on the right.

Incorrect, Soyer tried to use an analogy and I pointed out that it was used incorrectly and had nothing to do with the conversation at hand.

A tedious and necessary task....the way people feel when their egotism forces them to reply to throw away comments.

Eh, finding KCD tedious is a valid opinion to have. There's games I find tedious too. People won't ever agree on what's entertaining and what's a chore. That's why they're people. They're unique. Often far more unique than the games they get to play.


Thus, it's good that not all games go through Best Industry Practices such as modern playtesting. Games like KCD would never see the light of day if they did. Imagine Hollywood screentesting every Nolan movie in advance. And then recutting "Memento" into chronological order, as portions of the test audiences randomly picked from the streets found the movie to be tedious. That's what playtesting in video games has come to. And it's why unlike people, every other game tends to be the same. Like processed cheese, just with slightly different flavour, all rolling from the same type of factory line.

Warhorse realized way in advance that what they did would delight some people as well as p*ss others off. Unfortunately, few studios can take the risk. See at 34:00 mins, for instance.

Well he 'IS' right hos house is his property and you're trespassing, HTF does he know what you did while he was unconscious let alone who KO'ed him from behind?

I don't know. The sex scenes seem unrealistic. In my experience girls don't enjoy sex that much.

Ok, what do you expect the guy to do?
Maybe play past the tutorial/prologue to get an idea of how the game actually works...the entire thing you're doing is just the part of the tutorial that serves to show you unarmed combat, and probably also to drive home the point that you are a talentless peasant...

That comment shows greatness. Yeah even the realisitc KCD is not perfect in immersion. But its very good for gaming standards. KCD2 will even improve on some of the stuff you mentioned. E.g. in KCD2 if you steal cloth and then wear it in front of the wife of the person she will relealize it. In KCD1 sometimes it´s not on that level.
