KCD2

It gets way easier when you learn Master Strike. That’s like cheese mode. I’m like 40 hours or so in and just finished the wedding. I’m to the point I have to stop using master strike to have a little challenge.

I spend the time up front training to get my combat skills to 10-15 with one of the weapons which IMO is the point at which you really start playing the game and frankly it’s kind of an artificial plot device that you aren’t already there after KCD1.

Yeah once you get master strike and start lock picking for better gear, it gets manageable.

Very underrated game. First game I’ve actually enjoyed since Elden Ring and Sekiro.

Love the sword combat…remind me a lot of the moves you would do in real world fighting (parrying, countering, feints and so on) that you would learn in a genuine muay thai gym for example.

I really enjoyed the first one at the beginning for the story, the time period, etc. But I just stop playing every time I start because picking locks is nearly impossible on easy mode with a PS5.

That really pissed me off too at the beginning on an Xbox. But it’s a non factor after you get to like level 12 or so. At 20 I can get through very hard locks 99% of the time.

Pickpocket for the frick of it until you get there and you won’t have the same problem. Might take an hour of consistent pickpocketing.

Always avoided “RPG”s but man KCD2 is the best game I’ve ever played…coming from someone who had enough patience to complete Sekiro and Elden Ring in the last few years.

Welp, back to sim racing.
