Hieronymous Alloy posted:It's already present to an extent but more to the point not all of us still have the reaction times of 15 year olds and this game has no difficulty slider. In 90% of games you can just think your way through it, even if that just means cheesing it somehow. In Skyrim the cheese was "crouch and stab" because for some reason enemies were always loving blind, in this it seems to be "shoot them point blank in the loving face".

Its such a shame that people (that i know in real life) are giving this game a pass over the dev. It's so goddamn good. I really like the combat, i really liked beating that rear end in a top hat in the archery contest/swordfight and it felt really cool fighting and executing perfect blocks/attacking/getting blocked/defending again. It felt like an actual sparring match. Granted i had a shield because i stole it the night before. How do shields affect blocking? Is it just easier? You use less stamina on non perfects?

You know what'd be real fuckin' good as an improvement? If when it says "wait until morning" while you're on a quest in the middle of loving nowhere, the game just skips to morning. I'm currently sat in the forest at night with hans, unable to do gently caress all, because i'd slept earlier that day.

No its bad, people are talking about well fed, where you eat properly and never get hungry, but also never get massively stuffed. That said i'm enjoying being fat henry and i'm annoyed i'm not getting a badly bloated character model to walk around with.

I'm willing to bet 90% of the archery is too strong people are using the cursor hack. I'm waiting for the next patch before I revisit this game, but now that i've figured out archery i can effortlessly win competitions, but opponents who are moving are still difficult enough that nailing a dude with a headshot before his buddy's get up close feels really good. I do agree that they do just need to go ahead and stab you if you're in melee with a bow out though.

Out of curiosity, what do people want out of the "fuk peple" quests? I don't think i've ever seen one done in a videogame well, certainly not well enough for me to remember. I think mass effect had them reference it maybe?

If you have any system that relies on player skill rather than pure numbers, you'll never be able to pull off "weak as gently caress can't fight" characters. poo poo, now that i've spent more than 10 minutes fighting i just murder everyone and my stats aren't that high. That's not the games fault, that's because i'm a dick who goes for face stabs and then I back up to do it over and over again so I can win without taking damage.

Neurosis posted:you can put skills behind character and game progress thresholds like devil may cry, bayonetta etc, too. Sure, but that never felt like my character was weak, that felt like the game was just making me play a certain way. I like that in KC:D that at the beginning I swing swords are exposed parts and gently caress people up because of it, but the downside is that because of that gameplay decision, its open to getting abused by people who are good at it. That's fine, honestly it is, just patch a helmet in for Runt or something and you're all good.

Edgar Allen Ho posted:Group combat sucks, lock on system sucks, it's dumb as gently caress that I have to tank live five bandits while dumbass Ulrich fights them one at a time. Even if I stand there and watch him rush in, then turn tail and flee, I'll get five dudes chasing me while he melees the archer. Just stab them in the face I actually think the combat is probably one of the better parts of this game because it feels like I have to give a poo poo about my positioning, rather than games where I just charge in and one shot everyone. Well, up to a certain point, anyway.

Yeah you're gonna get like a solid 15 hours out of this game if you're actually experiencing the world and not power-levelling.

I've shelved it, but i'm gonna go and complete this game probably in a month or two. Looks like they've kept up on working with it. I don't see the inventory problems though, myself. Was a bit weird at first but I get it.

Yeah that's how I did it. Just domed both of them with arrows and hosed off. That was around the time I put the game down though, too many bugs and this was near release. Have they fixed most of the game breaking poo poo yet?

In fact doing that is probably one of the easier ways to make money, assuming you don't wanna go kill a few dudes and then sloooooooooowly limp back into town.

I have a hard time not recommending this game, actually. I didn't have any horrendous game breaking bugs in my playthrough but now apparently even those are fixed. I think my main issue is that you can't really play this game in like, 40 minute or so segments. I feel like if I don't have 2 hours to play i'm going to get nothing done.

As soon as someone say's "Graphics aren't good" when talking about a non-AAA game and the graphics aren't a complete eyesore, I just assume everything they've got to say is loving garbage, to be honest Like how the gently caress is this not fine?

The Cumans weren't that hard but I domed one with an arrow before the fight started and then spent the rest of the time just walking backwards and lunging. Seems the AI can't deal with that.

The arrows always go in the same spot so if you really want, go old school. Get a tiny piece of blu tac and put it on your monitor I haven't used a crosshair in literally two years, so i'm pretty decent at the shooty rabbits game.
