Warhorse Studios Signs Global Co-Publishing Deal for ‘Kingdom Come: Deliverance’ with Publisher Deep Silver

“Nice, really nice”

This is not an honest answer, it’s an evasive answer.

Except they are co-publishers, not publishers. Digital PC version is on WarHorse still. Publishers rule you when they fund you - them alone. Which is not this case…

Can´t comment about the details of the contract.
About the bundles for whatever platform: Sure, why not, but we have to talk about this with the hardware producers about this to. So this is possible, but highly open.
About Steam and GOG, yes we want to be on Steam, and later also on GOG, but there is nothing fixed yet.
And DLCs, yes we are thinking about them, but we don´t have any details about them yet, as the game itself does have a higher priority right now.

(Laughs) I was right!

I’m not against DLC, as long as they are done right (like Blood and Wine etc.)

And The Following to Dying Light, DLC better then the main game :stuck_out_tongue:

But yeah DLC can be a good thing and it can be a bad thing. So don’t understand why people are negative towards it before we even have info about it…

Overuse of paid dlc is the number one reason i leave negative reviews on steam, and i know I’m not alone. Please keep that in mind.

No. Just no.

A good example of a constructive discussion. Care to elaborate?

In my opinion its inappropriate to mention DLC (paid or not) at this point.

We have had more then one push back on release (over year) and we still don’t know what the final state of the game is going to look and if all of the features that were promised will be included. (not to exclude an entire platform that will not be supported until the unforeseen future)

I personally am going to highly disappointed if we lose features due to “time constraints” and then have to buy DLC for it in the future. This would be the end of my support for WH.

Funny how some translate “we are thinking about them” as “we are taking features from the game to sell them to you in DLC or miscrotransaction because it’s not 1999 anymore”

I really need new vocabulary for this newspeak.

It’s an accurate translation considering the main game isn’t even finished yet, and you have the community manager talking about dlcs. Its become an increasingly common practice for devs to announce dlcs before launch, and this always includes features that were cut and locked behind a paywall.

On the other hand, its usually true that those features were often cut just and only because of time constraints. I agree that it would be better for players to patch them in for free, but hey, if they can take this cut feature, polish it, implement it, and add new content (story, more features), why not make it DLC? Such DLC takes time to make, takes money, so its not that bad that it is paid.

Another story is real CUT content - finished, polished, working content, cut from game just for more cash grab - like Mass Effect 3 Day one DLC, and all other Day One DLCs - in fact all DLCs released less than two months after game are usually just cash grabs.

Actually Linux is available on consoles, that’s what Steam Machines are.

Whatever else Deep Silver have done they’ve released a lot of their games on Linux. I know you don’t want interference with development but they probably have access to some resources that could interfere in a positive way as far as a Linux port is concerned.

thats how rumors are made :smiley:

Glad to hear you guys have a publisher!
I have a couple of questions…
So Deep Silver has no way or any how of changing the game whatsoever?
As far as DLC goes, could you already just give them to backers? That would be a good workaround c:

I don’t know what Deep Silver has done, but I hope they will push the developer to pursuit their promises and release, or think more about the Linux release.
Currently their are only any avoiding real answer.

I guess not even them know the answer for now.

And if they would give you any answer, it will be something along the lines “If we have time”.

I really think that Linux version will come, but as it will be (logicaly) lower priority, I think it will be 2-3 months late.
