Kingdom Come: Deliverance

[Molly]

I expect you all to call me Baron Molly in this thread from now on

[Patoson]

Haha alpha access ftw! Hail, fellow baron!

[Moncho]

Yeah baron here too, I do not like the prices for act II and III, hope they will be cheaper when they actually come out. (if i like act i)

[Leesin]

Not read much about this, but what's this thing about Acts? you gotta buy the game then buy more acts? wut? I thought the game said "Sandbox" lol

[Kafein]

If you played Mafia or Mafia 2 you will probably understand what they mean by sandbox. Those games were sandboxy, but still extremely story driven (with by far the best scenarios of any GTA-like).

[Leesin]

After reading some more it says Act 1 will be around 30 hours of gameplay, which is good enough for me. Will be pledging when I get paid.

[Jacko]

Looks great. Can't wait to play it!

Few vague informations about combat on czech sites:

Fighting from horseback will be possible. There will be also done motion capture for horses.

There will be probably only 1 max 2 big battles, but its real, not some render on background, you move around freely.

Most fights will be 1v1, small skirmishes possible, but will be hard to win outnumbered.

Combat system heavy stamina based.

8 attack directions, sword after contact with other weapon or environment will be continue move base on physics calculation.

Only one block button, holding block consume a lot of stamina, so you need to time it. Attacking consume stamina, too.

The kickstarter video was nice and all but even though they say the combat system is one of the things they're most proud of, there's still barely any info on how the combat will actually work. Just some vague hyping and namedropping of Dark Souls.

[Xant]

There's more info than that on the post directly above yours.

[okiN]

Still very vague. Needs a proper visual demonstration of how it works in practice, not just quick three-second clips. Combat makes or breaks games, and for now we have no way of knowing which it will do in this one.

Estimated delivery: Dec 2015

 

I think I'll pass for now. Besides I see no real point in getting acces to alpha stage of the single player game. Spoiling the game story with unfinished product is kinda meh.

Yup, but 8 attack directions and stamina based block is still better than nothing, as far as information goes. Not much, of course. I for one have no idea what to make of that. 8 attack directions sounds kind of cool, I guess, if you have multiple finisher animations for each direction.

[okiN]

Yeah, but for all we know this could just be Skyrim combat with a few extra attack angles.

[Leesin]

Whilst I can't say if it's going to be good or not, it's obviously going to be better than Skyrim with 8 attack directions and apparently some decent weapon physics. You can sit here and say this shit about most kickstarter games, but in all honesty this game doesn't look like it's going to be bad, even if it isn't amazing. The video on the kickstarter site also gives me enough knowledge that I don't mind dropping some money on this.
