Yes, his shithead views will not have affected this game he made, other than by imbuing it with extra passion.

They surely have if that's the case. But nationalism is not a "shithead view". Nationalism is (blind) love for your country and heritage. Which in that case he'd research exceptionally thoroughly and made as little compromises as possible.
And this is a game about history of very well defined place and time so :colbert:

To answer the question of whether the developer's views influence the game:

In the prologue, the camera zooms in on the protagonist's father slapping the protagonist's mother's rear end.

Also in the prologue, the camera zooms in on a girl's rear end as she walks away from the protagonist

Hi, as an actual person with historical knowledge, yes there would be brown and black people all up in Bohemia, including bumfuck nowhere parts of Bohemia in the loving 1400's.

200 years after the Crusades, yes there will be brown people all over the place. Bohemia was the loving trading center of most of the HRE, and even in bumfuck nowhere Bohemia you'd have a lot of turnover.

This isn't even getting INTO the poo poo that was the Classical Era, Alexandrian/Roman migrations/colonization, the settling/migration of many African tribes, mercenary movements, Carthaginian turnover into Spain, Berbers and Moors, etc etc.

Like I think America is something like 30% African American/5% Middle Eastern and you see a pretty decently chunk of both groups. Medieval Europe would probably be closer to 5%/5% or maaaaybe 10%/5%, but that's still a pretty hefty chunk. If you went to a major city or even just wandered around long enough you'd see someone of a darker complexion, even if it was just a trader or a mercenary.

The idea that people would die of fright if they saw someone of a dark complexion and that they'd call over the local law enforcement is silly.

Like talking the nationalism/painting Bohemia right angle, this game does Bohemia a massive disservice by painting it as a shithole country, unlike what it was, which was a center of trade and knowledge. This instead informs the opinion of people that the Medieval Ages were exactly what Hollywood tells us, and not what they were actually like.

Also getting into weapon talk/historical accuracy, nothing I've seen so far of the gameplay reads historically accurate. Swords are for thrusting, you would almost never slash with a sword. This was the age of pike and crossbow, turning into the age of gun. You'd really start to see guns showing up among the nobility, and basically everyone would be given a spear/pike or a crossbow. This was the deathknell of "knights" ( even though knights are rarely what we envision them as ), because any rando fucker can pick up a spear/pike or use a crossbow and kill them pretty easily. It's the age when we started seeing real actual militaries again, built up off the backs of the lower classes. The idea of a dude wandering around the countryside with a sword and a shield picking fights with other people is kind of silly. The idea of a large scale battle built around lots of guys using sword and shields still in 1402 is downright wrong.

Like I'm totally okay with the game having tons of acceptable breaks from reality, because they make the game much more fun. If they said that they were going to make Chivalry: Medieval Warfare just more deadly and open world then I'd be all over that poo poo in a second. It's just weird that they went through so much effort to make a grognard game and totally hosed it up.

Western Europe and Central/Eastern Europe developed quite differently. You generally saw a lot more cavalry/nobility at play in England/France which led to a greater degree of people using 2H weapons/Sword and Shield style fights. You also saw a much slower growth of crossbow use, and near no pike use for quite some time ( the French really struggled to adopt Pike for a variety of reasons. Namely feudalism. You give the average man the ability to kill trained fighters with ease and you gain strength over your enemies, but you also give him more power then he had which the French did not want! ).

By the early Hussite Wars ( 20 or so years after the game ) Bohemian armies were set. They were built around a Pavise line wielding Pikes, and you had Crossbowmen backing them up. They also made heavy use of cannons and other heavy guns. We have a number of historical examples even into the late 1300's of this being the Bohemian setup for war. Advance under Pavise, have your Crossbowmen spread out and use the Pavise line as cover, then bait them into your Pike through a mix of Crossbow fire and cannonade.

So watching the BIG BATTLE for this game being a bunch of dudes 1v1ing each other with swords and shields, not a single Pavise or Crossbow in sight is a little ahistorical let's say.

so far from what i have seen, the army shot is only in the very beginning when the hungarians/cuman raid and lay siege to your town and you get the gently caress out, possibly with your gf
