I loved the first game because it took you from being little more than a peasant to playing a key role in a noble resistance army. That journey was fantastic. However, Henry's story clearly wasn’t finished, and I expected Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 to build on that -- maybe give us a fresh perspective instead of repeating the same "peasant to sort-of-knight" arc. But from the reviews, it seems like that's exactly what they’ve done. Again...
By the end of KCD, we learn Henry has noble blood. So why is he still trudging through mud and filth, barely scraping by? That decision blows my mind. KCD1 already gave us a brilliant, realistic look at peasant life in the Middle Ages -- I was sure KCD2 would take the opportunity to properly show the noble (knight) experience this time around.
Either way, I have the game preloaded and will play once I'm done plundering the high seas.
Probably because he has amnesia.

Seems like it's a great game if you like:
- a punishing save system
- really slow story starts (hour+)
- weird, non-heroic combat systems
It does seem to be good otherwise, and I don't mean that part sarcastically. It's just not for everyone, including me.

Do they still have the same stupid save system? If so, hard pass.
