Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Looks Amazing 

If you play first one don't be fooled by the combat at the start, its meant to be bad till you get official training in the story

The first game is straight up one of my favorite RPGs of all time, absolute gem.

As someone who grew up in Eastern Europe, Kingdom Come has been the only game that really nailed the look and the feeling of the rural countryside. When I first saw Skalitz, I thought I was transported back to my grandparents' village. Also, the game had the most realistic forests in any game.

KCD has been reviewed by Medieval historians and their biggest beef was that wood planks were used a bit too often in commoners buildings. Other than that, it's very historically correct.

Kingdom Come? nah, I Kingdom Came. Deliverance straight into my fucking pants

the first kcd was the most beautifully designed environment for me. i hope they still has that level design quality.

Bro, just the quest in the first game where you have a night of debauchery with a priest and bar maids makes the game priceless!

Asmons right. I remember when I first started playing the first game. Not only do you start the game not knowing how to read so all letters are jumbled, you don't know how to swing a sword either. The Controls are so unique in terms of combat that it has a hell of a learning curve. But once you get it down and you start perfect parrying with combos thrown in and no cross hair sniping guys with your bow to start out fights, all while looking like a badass knight. Try the game if you haven't. It will be tough at first but keep at it and you will be rewarded with dopamine.

lol "they had dogs back then" made me laugh so hard.. bro they had dogs since the Ice Age

The thing with Kingdom Come deliverance is the patience. You WILL NOT BE GOOD at the game at the start. And you might just HATE it. Many people quit because of the combat alone. But those that stayed and actually bothered to learn the game were greeted to a masterpiece of a videogame.

I absolutely love the first game and not only because I am czech and visited the in game places irl. Truly a marvel of RPGs and atmosphere. Fun Fact : the Cathedral is in Kutná Hora / Kuttenburg and right next to it is medieval ossuary with bones of medieval people, perished during the plague. There is a chandolier, chair, various furniture, all made out of human bones.

KCD 1 is so freaking unique. The game is totally historically accurate with many famous historians working on it.

Henry went from puppy in KCD 1 to giga chad in KCD 2

Cant wait to see him ragequit after the first fight 😂

I love the first kingdom come 1 and beyond hyped for #2 I've been checking about every 5 months if there's any news so happy! some tips n tricks for #1: 1 play how you want - you can spec to be a dodging swashbuckler or a tanking behemoth even a thieving arrow shooter and some things they don't mention is such as disguising as a bandit or Cuman to blend in and get close ect. 2 be patient - when you start shooting arrows your arm swings a lot, when you first swing a weapon you're slow and sluggish ect. as you play you level up the skills allowing these things to be fluent as hell and by mid game or late you can clear a bandit camp no problem 3 USE THE TRAINING WITH THE CAPTAIN adds more skills to be better in combat as you continue on 4 some quests are time locked such as the bad bricks at the monastery and due to this have alternate endings 5 Alchemy - use it originally it was so integrated to save you had to buy or brew liquor, it has changed since then but still being able to drop potions or poison's in cooking pots to help or hinder others makes mass battles simpler 6 you armor does affect your sound and how soon others locate you lastly, Picking herbs helps build strength since you have to kneel and is an aoe affect I doubt many will read all this if you did thank you for your time and consideration hope you enjoy the game and see yall in the next one

I played KCD during covid, and it was one of the best experiences that I've had, it reminded me so much of what it was like to experience Oblivion as a kid. I doubt Asmon would have the patience for it though, cuz the beginning of the game is kinda rough

As a history buff the first Kingdom Come Deliverance game was a dream come true, the architecture, the medieval art, the combat, the weapons and armour, the codex was truly phenomenal. I'm looking forward to the second game, this is going to be fantastic.

KCD is the most underrated RPG of all time. The second one WILL be life changing. Jesus Christ be praised.

at 14:40 they talk about exploration and castles and nature... For me, Im from Czechia and I visited those places IRL and seeing that in a game that's this successful brings tears into my eyes! I so want to play it... and then Asmon compares it to some fantasy game... I mean sure, comparing RPGs to each other but this one is next level because of its realism

I think KCD 1 was huge success and proved critics that you can have successful single player first person game and not everything has to be massive multiplayer third person shit like every other game. But it was mainly huge success in Europe and since it's basically Czech dev studio doing a game of Czech (Bohemian) history on its map and place, it makes sense it'll have big fanbase from Czechia and the countries around because you can more relate to it more than some guy from USA or other countries overseas. That doesn't mean they can't play it, the game is built for everyone, but the fact that you live in the same country where the story was made make it even more chilling. :D

I’m a 40 year old disenfranchised wine mom and this is definitely for me.

This isn’t Asmon type of game, don’t think he will enjoy playing it especially the combat but he can try. definitely one of the best old school hardcore rpgs of all time.

this is in top 3 of my fav games ever . 1st game was a masterpiece . cant wait to see what they do in 2nd

Till this day, I still open KCD ocasionally to have a wander around in it's beautiful scenery. A little building mod allows me to make campsites wherever and it just feels so nice to chill in that game world. I can't stress enough how hyped I am to see this.

I played this game last year, at the time all the bugs are fixed. It’s the best RPG experience I have ever had. For me is even higher than Skyrim and Witcher3.

As a Czech, I see it as an opportunity to broaden the awareness of our landscape. Another fun fact, when the fans did the Czech dubbing for the first game, Dan Vávra, who is behind it all, dubbed one character that was modeled after him, and there is supposed to be a Czech dub in the second game. It's our pride and national treasure, just like the first two Mafia games before 2K bought it.

I loved KCD1 so much I went on holiday the Czech Republic and visited the site of the game, one of the best experiences of my life. This game will take days to fully get into and more to finish on your first time but don't give up and keep at it. Its beyond rewarding.

The environment in the first game was so real, walking in the woods or riding your horse through open feilds was so good. Look out for bandits while travelling though. One tip , before you leave your starting vlllage pick as many flowers as you can, it will increase herbalism which you will need for healing and strangely your strength will also go up.

No way Asmon plays this. Way to hardcore for him. Not trying to gatekeep, but the first game was super tough to get into Edit: some are pointing the combat isnt that hard once you get the hang of it, which is true. But there is A LOT of dialogue in this game. Im still willing to bet most people will find it boring.

KCD 1 has the best foliage in any game for long time. Its forest and SFX are so immersive like you're actually in a real one.

This is one of the best cry engine games ever made its not just art direction its state of the art graphics

That old dude with the beard at the end looked based AF.

The combat progression is really amazing in the first game. At first I was getting absolutely stomped with every encounter and I stopped playing, thinking this wasn't for me, I just wasn't good enough for this type of game, later I came back and decided to keep at it, I realized that you are supposed to get your ass handed to you, because you have no skills going up against hardened bandits and warriors, as you train more and more, your character gets stronger and you gain more skills that you can use in combat, then you can start taking on 1 enemy at a time, later 2 at a time and so on, eventually you can become a real bad ass mopping the floor with everyone.

I did'nt know Henry and Hans look exactly like the voice actors

Once I understood the combat of KCD I was hooked, did take a while, but I kept at it and it's a great game.

I had the most cursed encounter in my gaming history in the first part. There was a bug with Hans Capon in early releases of the game when, before the bath quest, he would start following you around... Everywhere... It doesn't matter where you were on the map, he just started walking towards you and once he activated you literally couldn't escape him. The interesting thing about fast travel in this game is that it literally speeds up time around you. That means he gets faster too. When he catches you (it's only a matter of time), he will physically lock you out of fast travel by interactiong with you, he won't let you open your map, I kid you not, he won't let you open any in-game menu. Imagine my horror when I finally released that somewhere in the world there is an unhinged Hans Capon that is walking ON FOOT towards me and once he reaches me I WON'T EVEN BE ABLE TO QUIT THE GAME THROUGH THE MENU, let alone play. It was quite spectacular. It also ruined 5 or something hours of playthrough (I had to sit in one place in every save and skip time to see if he was zeroed in on me).

The people who disregarded the first game back in 2018 because of clunky combat after it released had no idea what kind of gem they passed on.

There is no way asmon will play through the first game, the combat system will piss him tf off and he wil quit very fast lol

Me getting ready to play KCD 1 after seeing this: Oh shit here we go again

This makes me so happy. Absolutely loved the 1st KCD. I fell in love with the game after i won the combat tournament the 1st time. I remember riding my horse back toward the mill and the former champion i just beat set up a clothesline trap that knocked me off my horse, then attacked me with a poison coated sword to get revenge. I was amazed by that sequence lmao

This game is harder than elden ring if you dont read the fighting tutorials and learn the fighting skills along with remembering the combos. So if Asmon really plays this he will die miserably if its any like the first game. Also Kingdom Come was good before Dragons Dogma 2 and even Baldurs Gate 3 it was one of the few gems that came out in all the shit that other devs were pushing out *cough cough ubisoft cough*

We are getting KCD2 and Manor Lords all in the same year!

Absolutely loved the first one, played when it launched on gamepass just to see what it was, ended up being the most immersive game ive ever played. Played it twice and really excited to play the sequence

So happy to see you watch this and want to play the first game. Its a bit janky sometimes but such a classic. 100% worth playing

EU developers GIGACHAD

Asmongold kinda looks like a character that would be in the game

Just started another playthrough of the first one. Absolutely worth every dime I ever spent on it, from back when it came out. Love this game and can't wait for the sequel.

The original is a CLASSIC now. Like a hyper realistic version of a Bethesda Elder Scrolls/ Fallout game.

The most immersive medieval video game ever 🔥🔥🔥

First one was so fun, was so distracted by every sidequest, still havent done the main fully

Loved the first game. Pretty hard to get into at first because the combat is so unforgiving early game, but once your locked in it's so good

KCD1 was maybe the most immersive RPG I've ever played.

More hyped for this than gta6 XD

Need to install the first game again, I remember playing until you get your home in the castle after the first boss and then quitting. With all of the DLC it's worth giving it another shot especially with my 3080 I have now.

People often don't realise this. But this guy Dan Vavra way behind original mafia one and in the production of mafia 2. Just imagine if he had all the rights to be in charge of the next mafia game. Mafia 2 if a masterpiece and still he said it's not even close to what he imagined and they cut a lot from it. KCD2 is promising. For the first game they had low budget and just a few people. Now they have everything they need to make a fucking great game. I really am excited for this. As a person who relates to this game so much just because it's literally our history. It's wild. And I am glad that some people who never heard of this small country called Czech Republic will at least be known after playing this game by many. All people are prising forests in this game. It really looks similar to what you can find in the nature here. Just beautiful.

But will it be life changing?

I personally enjoyed Kingdom Come more than Skyrim and Dragons Dogma. Not saying it’s perfect, but really fun and I’m definitely going to do a hardcore play through before this comes out.

Great video! Fun to watch again with the crowd. Thanks :)

Screaming, crying, throwing up! I never thought we would see it!

Asmon playing KCD1 is going to be hilarious for the combat and Intro even if he quits.

Play the first game please

Your opinion around 9:17 is interesting as the whole selling point for KC:D during the kickstarter was to appeal to people who wanted something that wasn't mainstream, and a more hardcore realistic experience. Can't believe you haven't played the first, once you get some levels in the combat skills the fighting becomes awesome.

I love the first game and am super hype for the second. the first one isnt narrow in scope either. I think you will really like it.

Tip for playing: this is based off old-school rpgs like morrowind. So skills determine everything. Before you run out and try to take on even 1 bandit, train your skills with the guy who offers to train you. Getting a few early points makes all the difference. Also npcs are on thier own schedule. They will NOT wait for you. If you miss a deadline for a quest, you will fail or piss off the npc

I unironically love the combat in this game, learning to parry turns you into a god. 😂

I really struggled with the first one, got a couple of mods (saving without saviour schnapps & stopping head bobbing cos it made me sea sick)and that improved it a lot. Still struggled with the lock on to enemy thing for the entirety of the game but I got used to it. Felt strange to run away quite as much as I had to in the beginning, not something many games make you have to do - but it made sense, Henry ain't no super hero, he's just a lad thrust into something he has no prior experience of. Growing better with combat as time went on and towards the end being as good as any of the other people you are fighting alongside whilst still not being some sort of god like combat veteran made it feel much more real. Really enjoyed it overall, strong story, believable characters, excellent voice acting and the scenery was quite breath-taking. And I loved the story within a story in the monastery. Looking forward to 2.

KCD1 was one of my favorite games of all time. Truly amazing. And amazing graphics that really pushed hardware, so the first game will still look fabulous today.

The first game was awesome, once the controls click, you start battling every single enemy

Not a single DEI box was ticked, you love to see it.

Okay so i got a ton of game time on CCD and i hope that for the 2 they will make base their combat system on how you used to fight at midle age and look in books by fencing masters of the time rather than contemporary sword duels, really loved first one despite its flaws, unique experience.

The thing I love about the first game and about these developers is that they knew exactly what kind of game they wanted to make and they went all in. So many games now are made to appeal to the widest audience possible, and they end up feeling like soulless, corporate husks (which is what they are). KCD1 was so unapologetically itself and made no compromises to appeal to an audience it wasn't intended for. The game has its flaws, don't get me wrong, but the passion that the devs put into it is so attractive that I can forgive the game being a bit rough around the edges. Hopefully, with all the resources they have available now, the second game will bring that level of polish that the first game is lacking.

We fuckin did it again lads 🇨🇿🗣️🗣️‼️❗❗

The first game was so underrated but I have a feeling this one has a huge chance to win the GoTY. Watch European game studios carefully, Larian, CDPR and Warhorse are the future of the industry with their high quality projects.

I've not been this keen for an RPG since I played the initial backer's demo of KCD. Ran at 5fps but man it was beautiful at the time. I just revisited KCD for a full modded playthrough, so I'm glad to have it fresh in my mind now that we know the game releases this year! I woke up for work 2 hours after this dropped yesterday and my brain fucking exploded. Literally had to pause at the beginning because I couldn't tell if Henry and Hans' actors were real or in-engine.

Game looks super better now. I guess I should finally finish the first game. I remember stopping because there was a lot going on at the time, and I took too long messing around the knight tournament thing.

a lot of people had complaints on the fighting mechanics. but for me it was the best one i encountered with melee fighting, it felt like really learning swordplay from peasant just being able to hold it up to really being proficient. getting your skill up by actual practise. once you got the timing and rhythm it felt very natural. also best and mature story in it's genre. no magic, just late medieval life.

KCD is absolutely one of my favorite RPGs of all time. Real excited KCD2 is getting so much traction.

Daniel Vávra the guy who made Mafia, so hyped for kingdome come II

first game i found took awhile to warm to due to its combat pacing but really good once it clicks. also people don't get too much hyped with games before they are first released, wait

One of the few games I would preorder based on the developers / actors

First games great but combat is difficult by design in such a way that to casual observer it's "bad combat" but in reality it's meant to elicit the idea that combat, even 1on1, is difficult- you were a peasant boy, not a trained soldier, and even after the training, you are inexperienced. When i saw Henry couldn't read and he had to go out his way to learn to read i knew this game was truly going a unique route. The games has issues and the sequel likely will too.But you can tell that to these devs, this is truly a passion project.

You hit the nail on the head 10:00 when regarding how almost every game in the past 8 yrs in regards to RPG plays exactly the same. The reason many folks never liked the first game of this series is because combat had to be learned and so different from many games I have ever played. It made sense because the whole point of the first game is starting as a peasent and its clear from this second instalment that Henry the main protagonist has gained and matured. Sadly not everyone is into stuff like this, remember when everyone and their mother got elden ring, and all you had on streams was people getting angry because they had no idea where to go or that the game was not holding their hand and guiding them.

so where the first game's map was centered around rattay, 2 will be kuttenberg and the surrounding hamlets

I only found out about kcd a couple years ago because the deluxe edition was like 80-90% of on steam sale and I had never heard about it . The game completely caught me off guard with its hyper realism , grounded story and characters and just the authenticity of the combat . Really everything about the game is incredible and you can tell warhorse is incredibly passionate . There’s no other game quite like KCD . Also Tom and Luke (Henry and Hans) are just an incredible duo. So glad that KCD2 is finally announced and damn what a presentation

I would LOVE to see Asmon play this. Although I am bit scared he won't make it thru first few hours, which is crucial to get really into it.

KCD 1 will always be my favorite rpg. Mainly because you start off an actually relatable character. He isn’t some blood born hero like the Dragonborn he’s a common blacksmith that sucks at literally everything.

14:11 Want to explore the woods and beautiful rocks but end up being ambush by bandits or cumans 🗿

I had no idea Henry's model in game was modeled after the voice actor that was uncanny

You have to read in these games btw Especially when Henry is LEARNING to read

If anyone wants to try KCD1.. I'd recommend looking at some of the QoL mods, quality of life mods such as SOFT and easier targeting mods, and also even crosshair dot for archery. The mods don't ruin the experience but make it less frustrating and more fun, IMO. NOTE: Be aware some of the larger mods have not been updated too well and need quite a bit of kdiff script merging work/understanding to have playing nice with each other or even with the latest version of the game. Most the basic QoL mods however are pretty simple to use!

Kcd 1 had such a cool lvling system u literally can't read at the start and have to learn it's a true start of being a lowly blacksmiths son 10/10 would play again

The first one is really good. Even the DLC was priced well.

Czech Republic mentioned!!!!

3:37 my brother in Christ we've had dogs since the ice age

Loved the first one and glad they kept the vibe of the first one and pumped to continue the story!!

I'd love to watch Asmon play KCD1, but if ever there was a game to learn the mechanics pre-stream - it's KCD1. The combat is about as anti-spam as it can get - every click is timing and you have to spend time with a master-at-arms training to level up each skill at least a little if you don't want to get frustrated. It's a wonderful experience though, and combat always feels impactful.

Life expectancy was mostly so low due to infant mortality. If you survived your first two years, your life expectancy went way up. 30 wasn't considered old. Most men didn't marry until they were 28, and women 26.

This and Squadron 42 are my most anticipated games right now. Loved the first KC:D.

First game was amazing. Brought me back to good ol’ days. Rly looking forward to see where the story leads us in second game. 👍

3:36 No. They spawned in the late 18th century duh, everyone knows that. 💀
