Seems to be doing well on Twitch
Cross-posting from the Steam thread.
Anyway, Kingdom Come has surpassed Pillars's peak players in a matter of hours after launch.
I wonder how far can it go. Divinity OS 2, which is one of the highest bars for RPG, peaked at 93k.
It really isn't, I did that by accident yesterday, it's that easily missable and minor.

Great to see a single player experience charging in with big numbers like this.
Both horse/camel riding and swimming felt like butter to me in AC: Origins. Incredibly fluid. Locomotion in general is really smooth in the game.
There are NPCs walking around everywhere, but I don't know how dynamic their behaviour is. I definitely know they are braindead when it comes to chasing you. After being caught lockpicking something, I was able to lose the guard by climbing a ladder in the same room we were in.
I had one incident which was pretty hilarious. I was exploring in a restricted area and this happened:
- I encounter a guard who tells me "You're not supposed to be here, leave!"
- After moving one meter back in the direction I came from, the guard yells at me "Hey, where do you think you're going!?"
- After barely moving out of his line of sight, I hear him yell "Whoa, where did the guy go? I lost him!"
I'm off to a great start. I got caught stealing on the first quest, then arrested and sent to jail, where I ended up dieing.
I agree. Movement overall felt great in that game, and mounts just felt like an extension of your character. The only annoying thing about swimming was when npc boats would crash into you when you surface, since they automatically spawned/drove in your direction.
Played for 3 hours straight this morning. Had to set it to medium to achieve 40fps with my oldish setup.
The game is amazing so far. Plays really good with M&K, looks good even on medium settings. The best thing imo are the cutscenes. They are so extremely well done, the voicework is top notch, the music, the camera, the atmosphere. I'm really astounded by the production values.
The first quests were quite fun, Henry is a real charming goofball and a nice surprise. Fighting seems fine to me in the first hours.
Loved everything. Can't wait to get home tonight and play again. Feels like playing something special.

might hold off on starting a playthrough until that first patch comes in. some extreme fluctuations (around 30fps) in framerate on a 1080ti.
also unfortunate that vavra's crappy worldview has seeped into the game, hopefully the examples mentioned in the rps review are the worst offenders.

I am in need of 2x electro sac, is this just a matter of luck with the loot you get from slain monsters? So far no luck getting those, same with aqua sac damn it.
I put everything basically in the middle (High) and it runs quite poorly on my 970 whenever there's a busier area. I'm only 10 minutes in and am just running around talking to people, so it don't matter too much. But if it's like this when the fighting eventually comes I'm probably gonna have to drop things to medium. Haven't updated my drivers in maybe a month or two, but that usually doesn't help much.
The intro is weirdly like a Disney movie or something.
I do not like the save system, in that you can't save when you want. This save system should've been optional.
Like, life things happen, and the game apparently has some issues with bugs and crashes
Edit: Been loading for like five minutes now, so I suppose one of them bugs happened to me.
I like the persuasion system. It's not just a simple speech check. At least on a surface level, as it's being presented, you need to actually consider things, like a surprising amount of things. Your attire, if it's dirty or bloody, the kind of person you're talking to, if they're by themselves...

Early spoiler:
Is it possible to beat 'Runt' who takes the fancy sword early in the game? I figured not but then again with this game who knows.
You can get two as the dowery for marrying your palico off to the earl of Praha.
Wrong thread, but yeah, it's RNG. Once you get to research level 3 you can see the drop rates in your field guide. Just keep hunting/capturing Tobi-Kadachi and you'll get 'em eventually.
Hahaha oh crap, wow my bad. I was looking through my recently visited threads and clicked on this, thinking it was MHW.
Then this hasn't happened in the story for me yet. Location wise I'm in Coral Highlands where that Paolomu is.
Thanks for the advice, that's good to know. I have several monsters at level 3 research now.
Anyway, I'll head on to the correct thread now, haha.
They perfectly captured the central European landscape, the woodlands and forests when you are in it or far in the distance among the hills look exactly like it does IRL. It's one thing to use the actual geographical information for positioning and another to make it look like actual woodlands and forests, the vegetation species itself are accurate too. The landscape is instantly familiar if you have seen or live in Germany, Czech Republic, Poland, etc, it doesn't feel like fantasy, it looks like how it does when you start leaving the city.
That's true they did fix the movement in general in that game. First AC that didn't control like a drunk person stumbling through quicksand.
Try to keep ultra but lower lightning to very high. Ultra enables some insane interior shadowing that murders performance.
Just bought this game for X1. Quick question: How do you save? What do I have to do to save my game? And are there auto save checkpoints?
Start lowering lightning and shadow options - These are usually huge gains in performance
Im glad there is finally a game again that is pushing PC Hardware and also reflects that in the game.
Looks really beautiful
I can't seem to collect the money from the dude in the first quest. I beat him up and he said "here ya go" but I have no money and cannot interact with him anymore...
Edit: Oh ok the quest didn't update last time saying I needed to find something of his worth selling.

There was like dozens of nationalities in Northern/Eastern Europe/modern Russia at the time, Finno-Ugric people inhabited quite big areas even. There was quite a few Mongol/whatever people running around too. It was very varied, and they considered themselves totally different from each other. It wasn't anything like "we are all Europeans hand in hand", it was more like "get of my lawn you stupid neighbour villager!" kind of thing. I mean, Eastern Europe is still REALLY nationalistic. Especially peeps in the south have still such traumas about the muslims invading them in the Middle Ages that they treat them badly still. Not everyone, mind, but there is a sentiment that they were the only defenders of Christianism when the muslims threatened the whole world.
But Africans were so rare that it is no wonder they didn't put them into the game. I know that some people just love to attack that notion, but it is true. Slavery wasn't similar to what it became later, slaves were captured from closer. Slaves were more like peasants. Also there was the whole Europe and many, many different people in the middle separating cultural areas. People didn't travel as much.
But the main point is, it was quite a diverse place, the edge of Europe. Nowadays you call all of us simply white and thus the same (I think it is kind of racist personally), but in the old times people separated themselves in multiple ways. I mean, look what the simple people worshipped alongside/before Christ, that alone tells you how diverse the democraphic was.
HUGE ASS OT POST about my personal stance in this, don't read if you are not interested in stupid ranting about why I think my people's history is disappeared (no need to answer in this thread, send PMs if you want to discuss more so we won't pollute this fine thread):

Very much enjoying the game, 6 hours in and loving the story, setting and lore/codex most of all.
Scratching that Mass Effect 1 type of itch, also scratching my New Vegas type of itch too: brilliant!

And i heard that in amateur PS4/Xbone versions lighting paired back even further..Just look at indoor screenshot o_O (and not zoomed in scenery like previous one)
Jeezus at first I thought those were base PS4/xbone comparisons but if the Pro and X versions are THAT inferior to maxed out PC then I can't imagine how bad it looks on base consoles, lighting looks so flat and dull on them compared to the volumetric ambient lighting/shadowing on PC
Meanwhile I'm sitting here staring out the window waiting for UPS to get here. Any moment now :\
Though honestly, being stuck on a PS4 for this (a Pro at least), I almost want to wait for this next patch Vavra said they're working on now. I just don't think I can wait another 2 weeks for it.

Man, I literally have an NPC bugged out on the first actual objective you get from your father. Have to restart all the mundane shit again cause of it.
