Don't know if any of you have heard of this, but I just saw it and well... Wow. If it's as good as it looks and sounds then it'll be an amazing game, imo. The game has a kickstar page which already has over £280,000 out of a goal of £300,000 with 28 days to go. So it's pretty safe to say it'll get the money to be made.

So, what is Kingdom Come: Deliverance? Basically it's an open-world RPG similar in style to a TES game. However it is set in 15th century Europe, so no elves or argonians etc (one of the downsides imo). There is more realism; the combat looks amazing and historically accurate, there is a need to eat and sleep and food can even go rotten. There's hunting, side-quests, large-scale battles. Much like in a TES game you can be who you want (except an elven mage). There is also the ability to play a bard-like character and be less combat focused, using your silver tongue to solve situations, which I think could be super fun.


There are tons of other cool features and stuff. Watch the video! The kickstarter is being done to prove interest in the game. If they get £300,000 they will have plenty of investors and publishers, if not, well then there wouldn't have been enough interest in the game anyway. I personally think it looks awesome. What are your thoughts?

Nice! How awesome!

BTW, I took advantage of the ongoing Steam Summer sale and bought A Woman's Lot DLC.

Erm... Khajiit is afraid to ask, but what does that DLC consist of?

If I understand this correctly, KCD is available on Steam either this weekend or from now until Sep 9 as a free trial! Those who choose to stick with it will pay $14.99, again assuming I'm right. Good opportunity to get your feet wet sans penalty. (Or see if your PC can do it justice.) Don't go in expecting a TES-like experience. Though there are of course similarities, KCD is its own thing.

Full modding functionality has at last been added to KCD. For now at least, it looks as if its creators have decided to rely on Nexus rather than Steam Workshop. Even official studio-made modding guides are housed there, or so I read. I've not visited Nexus to check this out. Certainly I'll make periodic visits there to keep an eye on things once the modding community has had time to establish itself.

Don't know when you played or how far you got in the game. As to the save system, it bugged me to no end too, at the start. Turns out to be not as big a deal as I thought. Plus, once you get good at alchemy you can crank out Savior Schnapps all day long and no worry about it. Worse come to worst, if you're on PC there's a mod that allows you to save pretty much wherever and whenever you want.

Warhorse Studio was good about attempting the correct glitches and stability issues. It almost never crashed on me my second go at it. Decidedly fewer crashes than your average TES title, in my case. That said, I quit when I did due to a crash, following hours of play during which I neglected many opportunities to save. Worse, I planned to do ONE final small thing, save and exit. That small thing turned out to be the only play-function that had almost always caused a crash in the past. Had I remembered, I could have avoided it, saved and exited as intended. I got so pissed at myself I decided to take a few days off before resuming play. Only...I managed to get hooked on Transport Fever during those 'few' days. Months later, when the KCD bug hit again, I quickly discovered I'd forgotten too much, including how to effectively fight. Didn't feel like re-learning it all at the time. Maybe I'll take it up again when my current TpF map because too stuttery to play. That might not be too far off.

I’ll probably get the itch to play it again at some point because it is an amazing game, but I just have extraordinarily thin patience and its a game that requires patience.
