I beat the drunk pretty handily just throwing jabs. Throwing hooks got me hit pretty much every time.

I'd move in close enough for him to throw something, back up enough for it to miss then hit him with a hook. Jabs consistently landed but it seemed like he was always blocking them. Also I haven't gotten far enough to find out if speech is good or not, but much like Elex I'm going to guess that all the points will be thrown into Strength and Vitality so you can actually survive combat without having to be speedrunning youtuber levels of good.

Kingdom Come doesn't really have "throwing points", though. You do something, you get experience in that something. Get enough experience in that something, and that something goes up a level. Every other level up you get a perk point in that something. A Speech perk point can't be used for Warfare or Swords, and vice versa.

Like if you put all your starting points in Strump is it easier or harder to raise Strump further?

I haven't played past the prologue but when I was brawling with the drunk I got a level in unarmed and a level in strength so I knew they went up as you used them but it wasn't clear if there would be more points where I'd get to level them outside using them.

PaybackJack posted:So the starting choices are just essentially just giving you 2 free levels in whatever skill(s) you choose? Yep. After that whatever you do, you get better at it. And if you want to do it when it counts, boy you'd better do a lot of it! Like for instance, before you hit Bow level 5, you can't even hold the bow right and will injure your arms every time you shoot unless you wear vambraces.

Every subsequent level needs a bit more XP to go up, but other than that, I don't think so. Essentially you just get a couple of free skill ups, but you go from level 1 to level 2 in any skill so quickly anyway it doesn't really matter in any way. You can view the details by going to Inventory, Player and then Skills / Combat / whatever, and pressing Q on the skill you want to find out more about.

Der Shovel posted:you can't even hold the bow right and will injure your arms every time you shoot unless you wear vambraces. That's hilarious. One concern I actually do have beyond the clunky interface is regarding the survival stuff. During the prologue it was already bugging me to get some food, which I never did. Is food plentiful and readily available, and how often does the game bug you to munch an apple? Related: how is the inventory system, can carry a hundred apples around and never worry about being hungry or am I going to get overloaded at 5 apples?

The steam forums helpfully explain that cooked apples feed you more than uncooked ones somehow, which is realistic apparently (that's according to the poster, this isn't just a snide joke I'm making)

Food spoils over time, but it's pretty easy to get. I haven't had an issue with it at all. Edit: ^^ you overeat if you go over 100 on whatever that meter is called, comfort I think.

There's already a mod for the pc version to enable saving in the menu. Having to use a potion to save would still be bad even if the game wasn't buggy as poo poo.

but thats not realistic, i make sure to drink my save potion daily

corn in the bible posted:The steam forums helpfully explain that cooked apples feed you more than uncooked ones somehow, which is realistic apparently (that's according to the poster, this isn't just a snide joke I'm making) It's true, cooking releases a fruit's nutrients more easily by breaking down tough fibrous plant matter into more easily digestible sugars. It's why humans bother cooking.

So this game is a Breath of the Wild cooking rip off.

Phi230 posted:At least autosave on quitting for Christs sake This would genuinely be nice. Before I left to get lunch I auto saved but my hard save is less than 10 minutes before the quick save so I’ll probably just load the hard save and mash through the conversation quickly so I don’t get hungover

Is it that difficult to make the save potions? I dont have the game yet but I don't remember people being too upset about ink ribbons

Hopped in game during my lunch break. 1440p with high settings, getting 90+ fps No performance issues over here Looks great, plays smooth. I'm expecting I'll run into some zany bugs when I get to play more, but whatever.

True, although I think most people do it because it tastes way better. This game is set in early 1400s Bohemia, right? Can you become a Hussite and get burned as a heretic?

uh so on the first quest I stole the axe, hammer and nails and sold them to the trader but I still don't have enough money for 10 bags of charcoal? Was I supposed to do something else with them?
