Many have probably already heard about this game, talk of which began back in 2009. But it so happened that so far she is not ready. But there is a beta version of Kingdom Come: Deliverance, a review of which revealed some details of the project. But already this will be enough for many to wait for the game with great impatience.
Promising tie
One of the advantages of the game is its plot, because it, according to the developers, is based on real events. Everything will happen during the Great Western Schism in 1403 in the Kingdom of Bohemia - one of the regions of the Czech Republic where troubled and turbulent times came. The king of the Czech Republic died, and, therefore, the throne was taken by his son - Vaclav IV. But, apparently, he was not born to rule the state, so after some time the guy is deprived of the right to the throne, and he himself is captured by his brother Sigismund. These events lead to serious consequences in the form of the Great Peasant War.
Many then lost their homes, friends and relatives, but we will only talk about one of these unfortunate - the son of a blacksmith named Henry. And he, in order to avenge his family and return the kingdom to his rightful ruler, will go on a campaign through the realistically recreated territories of central Europe. However, to learn about the plot, you should not wait for the beta Kingdom come deliverance. The alpha review has long uncovered this mystery.
Realistic gameplay
Having set off on his journey, the son of a blacksmith finds himself in a huge, open and opportunities-rich world. The developers have relied on reliability, so quite a real life is bubbling in the kingdom. For example, this is noticeable by the behavior of residents in the villages. Some rumble from idleness, staggering along the streets, others work in the field or carry water from a well, in general, everyone has their own daily routine, which they follow.
There is another interesting detail in the gameplay Kingdom Come: Deliverance. A review of the game showed that his reputation depends on how the NPCs relate to the character. And at once everyone will not like it, they will have to earn it separately for each settlement. This or that attitude to the hero will also be affected by his appearance. For example, if you wear a rich outfit, people will notice this and will relate accordingly. But after the battle it is worth walking along the street in bloodstained clothes, as everyone will immediately notice, and the guard will want to ask a few questions to a strange stranger.
Unique combat system and character leveling
Game review Kingdom Come: Deliverance (beta) revealed a couple more important points. For example, the developers came up with a unique combat system, on the animation of which the most experienced fencers worked. Understanding it right away will be very difficult, so the hero will often have to die, i.e. at first, even the most feeble tramp will beat the unfortunate Henry half to death. Opponents will struggle to dodge, fend off, roll over and dodge attacks, greatly complicating the battle.
Everything happens as follows: during the battle, the camera is fixed on the enemy, a sight appears, which selects the area of impact with the mouse. In general, everything is quite simple when it comes to weak enemies attacking in the singular. A serious fight will force you to use more complex tricks, use blocks and various combos. And in order to withstand enemy attacks, you will need to wear armor. The more she is on the hero, the higher the level of his protection.
It is worth noting that the pumping system here is also not quite ordinary. Features will only increase if used. Thus, if you talk often, the belief skill will swing. If you solve problems in the battle, strength and dexterity will increase. To move quieter, you will have to wear light equipment, etc.
Division into classes
In principle, in this regard, the game Kingdom Come: Deliverance (beta review) showed few innovations, but there is something interesting. The role-playing system of the game would not be complete if it were not for division into classes. Among them are not unique. You can play as a bard, warrior or thief, and each of them provides a certain style of passing. Although no one bothers to combine them in any way. It seems nothing unusual, if not for one feature. In addition to the usual characteristics, such as strength, agility or endurance, the developers added noise and visibility. After all, a thief is really quieter than a warrior in heavy armor.
Interesting quests
And the last thing you should pay attention to in the game are quests. The developers claim that they provided the game with an impressive number of tasks. True, it is not yet possible to verify their words, because only the beta version of Kingdom Come: Deliverance is presented. A review in Russian of the full version will give more understanding about the quest part of the project.
It is now known that the missions will serve not only to accumulate experience, but also as a decisive factor influencing the further passage. Also, the performance or refusal of tasks will affect the character's reputation. In general, assignments should be taken seriously.
Conclusion
Of course, it’s too early to draw final conclusions about Kingdom Come: Deliverance. A review of the beta version has so far been able to show that Warhorse Studios has something to interest players in. True, much will have to be finalized and optimized, but the developer has already kept most of his promises. It is hoped that in a full-fledged game, the studio will be able to fully realize all its ideas.
