Kingdom Come: Deliverance

Kingdom Come: Deliverance

it’s a review so i have to say that this game is MAGIC (no magic involved in the actual game). If you’re a geek who loves medieval history, then just buy it already! it’s just 10$ on sale right now which feels criminally cheap for what you’re getting. you’re going to get tons of hours and an incredible amount of options to choose from in terms of skills, combat and play style which ultimately allows your Henry be exactly who you want him to be. The combat is challenging, and even though my coordination and rhythm is poor in life and all video games i’ve played, there are ways around this (in most cases), as you have many ways to resolve issues. I play a charismatic yet weaselly man who can talk or run his way out of anything. i can handle a sword if it comes to it, but i’d rather not. what i’m getting at is that you shouldn’t be intimidated by some reviews that rightfully point out how challenging some scenarios can be. get creative! the game allows for that.

As a game, it’s very difficult in the early parts. Food and money are really hard to come by, though there are some “public food pots” if there’s no choice. You are weak and getting ambushed is hell, especially when you haven’t saved recently. Speaking of saving, you have to CRAFT a potion to save, or find a comfy bed. Fighting more than 2 enemies is an automatic fail, more so if they are armored. Though to be fair, anyone would struggle to fight 2 people in real life.

Yet, once you have top level armor and weapons, this game is one of the best “knight simulators” of all time imo. Get some potions that fortify your defense and raise your warfare/strength skill and you’re a killing machine. Then there’s also the fact that money and food become pointless because you’ll be filthy rich (even without ‘that’ DLC) and you’ll get hungry a lot slower. I absolutely love the combat system. Even if many people aren’t fond of it, i don’t think there are other games that can capture the essence of medieval fencing. This game got me interested in HEMA. Anyone who says the combat is “trash”, is actually trash at understanding the combat mechanics themselves.

Ironsmith Medieval Simulator: Prologue

Ironsmith Medieval Simulator: Prologue

Summary: This game is fun and satisfying, but has a lot of functionality problems. It does crash, erasing all my progress.

This game is a lot of fun! Obviously it’s not a full game yet and the textures aren’t done and a lot of mechanics are very buggy. Besides that, game play is fun and satisfying. Completing a sword feels like an accomplishment every time, and it feels good to get reviews from random people who you sell your swords too. However, I have encountered an error every time I play the game. Once I reach the second location and make 2 or 3 swords, the game crashes and I lose all of my progress. Like I said, the game isn’t complete yet, but it is still really annoying. I may be an idiot, but I also can’t seem to find a way to save. Either way, it’s only a demo so there can’t be much left after the game crashes so it’s not that big of a deal.

After playing this game my overall summary is: This is okay, but it could be so much better.

Pros of this game:

1. It’s a good concept, and executed decently.

2. It adds more to being a blacksmith than “go make sword, get paid”

3. It isn’t super difficult to get a grasp of, and you can improve your ability to smith.

4. (This is my opinion.) I like the look of this game, it has a nice art style and it looks like the developer really worked hard making it.

5. The developer seems like they want to continue building and improving upon their game, which means a lot of my complaints about this game may be removed in the actual game.

Although there are only the foundations laid, we can already foresee the potential and the challenge that the game can bring, the strategy and the good use of the types of units as well as the formations is essential to succeed in winning battles, but the progression of the character and his units obviously brings a significant plus that will make your life much easier in case of difficulty.

If you liked Mount & Blade or Conqueror’s Blade there is a good chance that you like La Porte des Fauconniers.

Griefhelm is a fun little action game in a pseudo-medieval setting, which I discovered recently and fell in love with. It offers lots of cosutmization and weapons, a singleplayer campaign, singleplayer and multiplayer costum fights called “encounters” which you can design the way you want by chosing your equipment, the enemy’s equipment, different rule sets, the stage/level/map and the exact gamemode: skirmish=duel, battle=capture waypoints, tug-of-war=push the enemy back by killing him and running towards the end of the stage/level and more!

Physics based simulation style sword fighting game taking place in 17th century Poland. Think of a cross between… Bushido Blade, Exanima, & Die by the Sword. Created by one of the main animators for Witcher 3. Really amazing to see an animator translate their ideas about animation into gameplay. I’m sure a lot of animators get frustrated by game design limitations.

This would be a really fun party game if you have a couple controllers! It’s easy to learn, very difficult to master, but it’s very fun and feels authentic through and through.

Medieval Archery Simulator

Medieval Archery Simulator

Join a grand tournament and earn the title of the best archer there is!

Prove your superiority over other archers! Dominate every competition, use the wind to your advantage, and learn to shoot before your muscles tire.

Practice outside of official tournaments and hone your skills before a competition. Take the wind into account when choosing a faraway target.

Sign up for increasingly prestigious tournaments in various different locations. Build your reputation by overcoming various challenges and outperforming your competition. Be ready for anything - only easy contests involve simple firing at a stationary target. Harder ones will require you to fire while moving, aim at a thrown target, or even play a melody by hitting different bells in quick succession.

Spend your rewards on new bows or arrow parts. Compliment your competitor’s weaknesses by choosing the right equipment. Make sure you match your gear with the archery style you prefer.
