To my surprise, I’m really intoKingdom Come: Deliverance 2.
Critics were right on the money.
I play games for an hour every morning, and KCD2 has consistently dominated that time since its release.
Thats a pretty big discrepancy!
Even wild dogs are dunking on me.
Getting Good Takes Time
Like a lot of KCD2 players, Imnot going to the wedding.
Turns out a lot of stuff in this game is wolf-related.
Including Henry attempting to give himself the nickname Wolf of Skalitz.
Could this be an ode toGeralt of Rivia, perhaps, who is both the WhiteWolfand the ButcherofBlaviken?
All that time on lupine leisure makes it feel like I’ve barely scratched the surface.
I keep pouring time in, but haven’t made a ton of progress.
Or, at least, I’ve started to measure progress differently than I usually would.
That open-endedness and depth make this a difficult game to feel any sense of objectivity about.
Am I still early?
Am I nearing the middle?
I don’t know.
So, instead, I’m finding my own progress markers.
When I win a fight (any fight) that’s progress.
When I brew a potion correctly, that’s progress.
Success and failure are both progress when they teach you something.
But Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 requires a perspective shift.
But that distracts from the truth that just hanging out is a great way to pass the time.
Sometimes, twice as much time as you realized.
Gotta have snacks.
