Yea, but playing a base game, several years and DLC packs later for free is kind of a wasted time investment.

Publishers know this, which is why, for example, Civilization VI will often go on sale at like $5, but if you're seriously considering getting into it you'll want to get all the extra factions, expansions etc, which "conveniently" are not discounted as highly percentage wise in the same sale, and you end up spending $45 anyway instead of the $5. Scummy publisher trickery.


I can never be free, because the shackles I wear can't be touched or be seen.

Yes, I agree. Another example is the free base The Sims 4 but kind of useless without DLC"s which can ramp up the price by hundreds of $$$.

But, as far as I've read, the DLC's in KC:D are ok, but nothing special. For £3.49 is probably worth it tho.

I did go back and play Womens Lot but i never tried Band of Bastards. There was also one with Capon but why they'd have a DLC featuring the games most annoying character, im not sure.

Which makes it possible to make a pirated version with all DLC look like a legit copy. So I wouldn't call it useless. Wink

Aka, you can access all that online faff if that's what you want.

Sad

Hopefully some optimizations on that end, but yeah, if they plan on doing bigger cities could be a problem

It'll be a problem

What, in the state of all game releases, including KCD1, would lead us to believe it'll be any different?

I hope I am very wrong, but I doubt it

According to the developers, the title was held back in scope due to the Xbox Series S hardware.

They blame this console’s 10GB of memory, stating that it became the primary limiting factor.

Might be delayed to 11th February 2025.

Quote:
When it was revealed in April, publisher Plaion said Warhorse Studios’ action RPG sequel would be released for PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S later this year.

However, on Wednesday it emerged that retailers including Best Buy and Walmart had updated their product listings with a February 11, 2025 release date (the former has now changed its listing again to state that a release date has not been announced).

Considering it was supposed to release '9 months after Act I' (November 2018), I wouldn't be surprised in more delays

Instead of going for a swim, the sound of some lassies singing inspires Hans to perv on them while they're washing. Thus begins a stealth section where two men in their underwear try to sneak up on a group of young women out in the woods. It feels more 1980s than 1400s. Before we can complete our pervy quest, though, some soldiers arrive and start cutting down peasants. One of them tries to sexually assault a woman, but is interrupted by Henry yelling.

The life of a woman in the 1400s was pretty terrible, but it's strange how much this 3-4 hour demo presents its female characters as either objects of desire or victims. I'm detailing this one scene specifically because it does both, for the purposes of comedy and shock, but it keeps happening. Older or less overtly attractive women, meanwhile, are presented as sharp-tongued or crone-like. It's not dissecting the role of women in medieval Europe, it's reinforcing stereotypes. The first game did feature some interesting, complex female characters, and hopefully the same will be true here, but how the demo presents them certainly gives me pause.

Every time I read stuff like this, I feel like the person writing it thinks twitter/reddit are peering over their shoulder as they type.

Glad to hear it keeps the humour from the first game.

While far from being perfect at least it is not action-button-smasher...
And it is not an easy task to come with perfect solution that works in first person view..

It's one of the 'Company''s websites.

Of course it flirts with the message / agenda.

Me?

I do my best to NOT give them any clicks. And I've succeeded this almost entirely. They're dead without traffic.
