Before I get into this, I loved this game, even through all those buggy messed up quests, the game always made up for it with intense, life like cutscenes and a feeling of worth and meaning, which is rarely done in an RPG. I thorougly enjoyed the story, its captivating as fuck, apart from some tedious quest’s such as the infiltration of blank, if you’ve got to that point im sure you know what I mean.
The main problem I have with KC;D is how its unreliable, what I mean by this is, sometimes I feel like a total badass, especially in those big battles, but then sometimes you face off against one bandit, who for some reason, has the stamina of a stallion and can reposte every strike I throw at him, albeit I always end up defeating them, its just a little demotivating, also a small issue, in certain cutscenes, npc’s and I had different armor/clothing to what they and I have outside of mentioned cutscenes, not a huge issue, but does break immersion.
Now I would like to get into the ENDING, so if you dont wan’t spoilers i’d advise you click away.
I don’t have much to say, the first part of the ending while you siege the castle etc. was GREAT, but I’m extremely disappointed still, I felt like the game was setting me up for another adventure after that meeting you have with the Lords, but nope, you listen to some bullshit, ride a horse and THE END, I know the game gives you a chance to go do sidequests, but come on who really wants to go hunt a hare with some random huntsman or pickpocket someone for 50 groschen, I know the ending is most likely a set up for DLC, but I was a tad bit disappointed is all, I thought this game would stand out from other RPG’s and give us a reason to play the game after the ending, after all a lot could’ve been added, since we’re technically a noble now, or atleast a “nobles bastard” as Sir Hans puts it. I swear, if this was just a money grab, and they don’t introduce new acts, I will cry, this game has so much potential, I thought it would stand out from other RPGs such as Skyrim, but no, in the end, it all means nothing, you can go and bump into a guard and they call you a lout, you walk into a private area, and the Bailiff will come and tell you to get out and threaten to arrest you and pull his weapon out, maybe I was hoping for too much realism but they assured realism, and I’m just not satisfied, sorry about the rant, just so bummed out by this missed opportunity, the gaming industry has seemingly gone to shit especially in the RPG genre, besides TW3 ofc.
