Kingdom Come 2 - Your Same-Sex Adventure Awaits!
The music seems good.
But the primary way to make this game better would have been to cut half of it. And put in more hostile encounters. Then make fighting faster.
3/4 of each dialogue should have been cut.
"What do you think of cucumbers?"
"Eh? What?"
"Huh?"
"The dog was barking. Didn't hear."
"Oh."
"Yeah."
"So about cucumber."
"What about them."
"As a noble sir, do you like them?"
"Well yes, you see, my grandmother ate them three times and said they were good."
<Cinematic Flashback> GRANDMOTHER eating CUCUMBERS.
BACK IN PRESENT:
"Well, there you go."
"I'd like to eat one."
"Okay here."

Of course number will be lower this weekend, every SP games peaks first weekend. But 250k concurrent players is certainly decent, as sad as it is.
It is anecdotal, but from various comments from people I know in the normie realm, there is a bit of buyer remorse concerning KCDII as some have come to see after playing it how woke it is and didn't realize how much until they got a bit into the game (and could no longer return it).
I think most of the influencers still down playing it are showing who they really are with all of this.
I don't think KCD3 is going to be as easy as a sell KCD2 was and it will likely have tons of bad responses to it all through its marketing and development.
I really hope that will be the case.

They are. A lot of them are now outright saying that they have never been anti-woke or used the word woke in any of their videos or X posts. This proves that these people are unprincipled grifters. These people were just dopamine merchants telling their audience what they wanted to hear but the moment they became the new access media they gladly sold out and lied to their audience for those sweet, sweet shekels. A lot of people don't realize this when they read the story in the Bible about Judas's betrayal of Jesus is that the story has a moral. The moral is that any man, regardless of who he is, has a price on their soul and will gladly sell both it and their lord for that price.Xenich wrote: β February 14th, 2025, 17:46I think most of the influencers still down playing it are showing who they really are with all of this.

Pretty concerning to see that the console market is practically dead if they're getting virtually no sales on those platforms.

I take back everything I said about Todd Howard and Starfield. At least in Starfield Todd allowed you to kill the last practicing Jew in the universe. What the Austrian painter started, Todd will finish.

Those things arenβt the consoles we knew any more. Back in the past you had to just buy a game disk put it in and play. No subscriptions, unstable cloud services, meta gaming, forced internet game file downloads, 50gb fixes, annoying ads, rules of conduct, region bans and other crap. And there are no modchips for modern consoles to run pirated games. The consoles are dying because they changed their nature and became predatory service providers with ****** games.Roguey wrote: β February 14th, 2025, 19:47Pretty concerning to see that the console market is practically dead if they're getting virtually no sales on those platforms.
Nintendo, yes. Playstation, Xbox don't really cater to that market anymore.

It's not just that they've turned consoles into gimped PCs with none of the advantages of either console or PC, but that there's also no worthwhile exclusives.MrTwinkls wrote: β February 14th, 2025, 21:04Those things arenβt the consoles we knew any more.

Say what you want about Nintendo, but they understand it's the games that sell a console, so they always make sure they will have a bunch of quality games exclusive for the system.
Sony has killed off all their competent Japanese developers, first in an attempt to turn every first-party dev into a Naughty Dog, and then by trying to transform them all into GaaS slop factories.
Now they're stuck with a bunch of disastrous GaaS products bleeding their coffers, while the rest of their developers are busy making cinematic, woke trash that takes a whole console generation to release, costs as much as a Hollywood blockbuster to develop and struggle to break even. The most recent State of Play showed that Sony had basically nothing in the pipeline, with their two "big hitters" - Wolverine and Cuckmann's game, not coming out before 2026 at the latest.

I think the only consoles I really played to any length were Pong, ColecoVision, and Nintendo. I had a Super Nintendo and a PS1, but they were gifts/won and I really didn't have any games for them so only occasionally rented something if it was of interest. Past that, Consoles were kind of crappy IMO (I didn't like their focus and design) and I just played PC games which obviously was a major downer when they took over the PC market and now every PC game is a console game for computers. /sighStatesman wrote: β February 14th, 2025, 22:59I own an Xbox as a cheap emulation machine.rusty_shackleford wrote: β February 14th, 2025, 21:34Ps5 is a nigstation that exists to play NBA & NFL games.

One of them is attracted to ********, so they're probably both gay

after thinking on it, any man who willingly voices a character that engages in homosexual behavior is gay

Already happened. Ever heard of the Last of Us? Yes, even the first game was woke and garbage.Element wrote: β February 13th, 2025, 18:01Timeline that I fear the most is woke games becoming 'good' enough for normies who won't care too much about reddit being sprinkled here and there, and the chuds becoming ghettoized as their fulminations appear more and more unhinged to the masses.
Ever heard of ******* Baldur's Gate 3? Woke to the ******* gills but lauded as the "best game of a generation" that "revolutionized the gaming landscape" and "a perfect masterpiece". Sure, BG3 has good gameplay for a CRPG but the story is so trash and filled with woke **** that stuff like No Alphabets and Better Aesthetics mod is required and makes it barely tolerable. And everyone and their mother is claiming that BG3 is not woke (except the based chuds, of course), that Last of Us is a great game instead of movie slop that was also woke, and that KCD2 is definitely not woke, even though it's arguably more woke than even ******* BG3 since at least BG3 let you kill the **** and ******, whereas KCD2 is a huge humiliation ritual for the white christian heterosexual main character, Henry, and thus by proxy, a non stop humiliation ritual for the Player.
Normies are essentially women. If their surrounding circle of influence, and the garbage "internet personalities" they follow tell them something is not woke and it's "fun" and "OK to consoom" then they are happy. They don't want to be socially ostracized for liking the wrong thing and disliking the right thing. That's how we get ******** stuff like the "queers for Palestine" ****.
And this is why RPGHQ is arguably the last remaining safe haven where you can express your opinion without being banned for using 'the wrong words' or having 'the wrong mindset'.
TLDR: Become a paypig for the RPGHQ now.

Yes, but an excessive dialogue-to-action ratio is not good, and the dialogue in most games tends to be "serviceable" at best. More of "serviceable" is not good. More words without game to back it up is not good.
Perhaps. I think its almost impossible to predict now.
