Spent about 15 minutes riding a horse, explored some woods, enjoyed wonderful scenery. Found the camp, talked with the trainer, he gave me wooden sword and told me to defend myself. We danced around the ring for about 15 minutes, he taught me how to fight with the sword.
Then we left the ring, and 4 soldiers went in to train with real weapons and shields. Then, all of a sudden, three soldiers attacked one of their own, with real weapons. Swearing and cussing, they killed him in some most brutal way, blood was everywhere. One of them kept bashing the corpse’s head with his club, the other two had to pull him off. Reminded me a scene with a printer from a movie “Office Space”.
I tried to talk to the trainer to see whats going on. He wouldn’t talk to me. After about 2-3 minutes more of cussing and cursing the whole world, they finally calmed down. I went to check the man, to see maybe he needs some medical attention. Maybe they didn’t beat him dead after all, but no he was dead. He had some items on him, but I decided not to take anything, since the only button available to me was steal, and why would I still from an innocent man, who just became a victim of some horrendous blood lust misunderstanding.
Trainer, however, told me that I am a thief and need to go to jail or pay money, otherwise they would rape my whole family and eat their legs. I got scared and paid 15 gold. During all that talk, I was getting text on my screen, my trainer wouldn’t open his mouth though, he just kept gesturing, I kept gesturing as well but my mouth wouldn’t move. We must have been exchanging our thoughts telepathically. Interesting mix of medieval and Sci-Fi. Next time, I’ll have to look for a UFO in the woods, I think aliens may have left some technology behind that I can benefit from very much.
So I paid the fee, and walked towards the commander. The corpse, however, was already outside the ring. I think, while I was telepathically communicating with the trainer, the other soldiers have thrown the corpse outside of the ring. I thought, maybe the beaten soldier is not dead after all, and checked on him again. But it was the same steal deal, so after checking his pulse and not detecting any, I just pushed the Exit button again.
To my surprise, everyone around me, including the trainer, who just taught me the basics of life and almost became like a father to me, drew their weapons and bows, and in a twinkling of an eye, I found myself stabbed with swords, chopped with an axes and pierced with arrows. Blood filled my eyes and I felt that darkness is overtaking me. I think I died, because the last thing on my screen was " GAME OVER ".
My conclusion - its a good game, very short though, for writing stories. But pretty much unplayable, with some awfully done scripting. Oh, I forgot to tell you… I think my trainer was an alien. First, he could talk with me while not moving his lips (and I could talk back the same way!) and his face kept changing, I think his skin was moving, or was undergoing some odd changes on molecular level. I think, before they killed me, I crapped my pants twice. First time, when I got scarred by a bold man’s face and then of course, right before I died because they say that right before you die, you must be crapping your pants. Cartman said that on South Park, so it must be true.
Hopefully you enjoyed my story. I think I’ve enjoyed it more than actual gameplay of KC:D. Peace!
), and as the training was nearing the end, in the use-everything-you’ve-learned part, I went on a clicking spree and bashed the training master several times into the head. His reaction? Sheated the sword, while everyone else drew their weapons and killed me.
Just put it in color hehe.
