Totally tell the dog to stay when you stealth kill an entire camp in the dead of night. That was my preferred by to take out camps.

Yes, but for that to work the stay command would have to work, which it didn't haha. Finally settled on stealth for the cuman camp, then did a rapid fire sabotage while dodging swords from every direction for the bandit camp and hauled out of there on my horse

Jesus loving christ, this achievement for "don't kill anybody" is so stupid. It is nice for most of the game, except battles where you just pray you kill no one while your useless allies just derp around. Especially the attack on Talmberg is stupid since 6 of your dudes just drop dead before they reach ladders (I dried doing the side objectives and they don't save even one of those idiots), then on battlements it is completely random if they get immediately all killed or completely roll over enemies. If by any chance I even reach courtyard there are like 20 enemies and only allies left alive are Bernard (if he didn't get stuck on some steps) and one other idiot who are constantly getting pounded from all sides  I don't know who is bigger idiot, if that guy who created this achievement or me for trying it

Does using a club or mace help that achievement cause I can think of like 90% of quests that involve some killing

Axe-man posted:Does using a club or mace help that achievement cause I can think of like 90% of quests that involve some killing You can get through most of main quests without hitting anyone (except killing Runt and beating Ulrich). The only frustrating part is battles, where you try to distract enemies while not killing them (in one part of Vranik, you can just sprint through burned tents and it apparently counts as clearing it out of enemies). Even then battles were not that bad and your allies do pretty alright without you, but this last part is really poo poo at that. Maybe there is some trick to this like clubbing enemies with sleeping potion, but it's kind of hard to say it if even does anything, or if it is, when it gets applied

Does the main quest clearly sign post when I can chill out and start exploring? I know that, technically, I can start tramping the countryside that as soon as I'm Rattay, but previous experience tells me that, mechanically, thematically, and narratively, I shouldn't, so when should I? I'm attempting to play through the game for the second time; the last time I stopped it was because of a problem I was having balancing side quests and main quests. The last time I played, I started exploring the game world as soon as I was at the Rattay mill, and when I eventually returned to the main quest I realized I'd made a major mistake in putting it off because: - The game had hidden several vital combat mechanics behind more tutorials - All of the quests / cut scenes sort of had an implication that the events at Skalitz had just happened - I was given some basic equipment that would have been very welcome at the start of the game but was now far worse than what I'd found - In my playthrough Henry was being made a squire after I'd just spent a few weeks poaching game, stealing, and spending time in the jail. The narrative writing me into aspirations of nobility is fine, I just wish I'd known so I could have leaned into it a bit more. "Ludonarrative Dissonance" might be a fancy term for it, but it was jarring and I ended up putting the game down because of it. Anyways, I'm currently reading Pillars of the Earth and it's rekindled my desire to play King Come. Since I'm now aware how the main quest is immediately after the intro I'm running straight through the it and enjoying things a lot more - it fits thematically, the extended tutorial feel right, and the equipment I'm gaining matters. My question is: when should I go out and explore? Is there going to be a clearly marked "you've hit the main game, go nuts" moment? Currently I'm just training in the practice field and waiting to meet up with Nightinggale, the town guard, and while I know I've played through this far before, I can't remember quite how far I actually got in the main quest previously; I know I didn't retrieve my father's sword, assuming that happens.

The standard idea seems to be to rush through early main quest to do sparring, get a horse and progress till you get the quest "Ginger in a Pickle". You are free to do poo poo then and not have anything time sensitive.

That sounds like it'll cover me mechanically, since I imagine getting a horse is a bit of a capstone to the soft tutorial that seems to be continuing after the intro, but is it also a narrative down beat that sort of puts a bow on what's happened so far and suggests I can take a break from the main quest?

Not exactly. The main quest is more or less a rapid fire narrative chain until Baptism of Fire, 3-4 quests later. It certainly slows down for a bit after Ginger in a Pickle though, and sends you off for one of the most entertaining quests in the game. Just watch out for the quest On The Scent. It's fine if you don't do it right away, but you're certainly supposed to.

I may well hold out until Baptism then, I really would like keep the narrative chain going.

Some of you guys might be interested there's a movie coming out called Medieval on the Ninth that deals with Jan Zizka and takes place around the period of the game. Haven't seen a screener or anything but I'm going to assume it ain't getting poo poo marketing so I might let the people who might care know about it.

I've just completed Ginger in a Pickle, and before I bugger off to find Limpy the Limper, I feel like I desperately need to get some training in. Am I free to faff about as I please, or is it one of those "right, we feel generous, you may have THREE days to get to it" quests; like, for example, digging up that ring for the miller, which I forgot and subsequently failed?

Hang on there is a spoilered list of time sensitive quests in my history... edit: Toxic Fart Syndrome posted:Pretty sure you can safely spend an in-game day or two training with captain whatshisname outside Rattay, near the inn. That practice should level you up pretty easily.

I loved this game and want to play it again sometime, but the thought of dealing with the combat scares me a little. When you're a walking medieval tank in full plate mail and 360 noscoping bandits with your mace, its fine, but early game it just feels like a gamble if you're going to win or die.

Yeah if you're on to Mysterious Ways you're free to take your time. The next quest (On The Scent) does have a timer, though you don't outright fail if you aren't fast enough.

If you have time to waste on dumb bullshit, maxing out your stats in the tutorial is good for a chuckle. My old pics from this thread: Before leaving Skalitz:    After leaving Skalitz:

Wait, you can go to Kuttenberg in Darklands, and the games are even set contemporaneously (1400 is the start year in Darklands, and a typical campaign takes 3 to 5 years of gametime). If Henry runs into the wild hunt poo poo's gonna get real
