>>3987241 For action RPGs I prefer non-FP. FP melee is garbage, because it always results in backpedaling to maintain visibility. I prefer non-slop in general though, aka not Warhorse games.
>>3987274 oh he doesn't know about warhorse studio(embracer group has heavy dei shit). In KCD 2 , they made the main character gay. They humiliate him constantly and there's a muslim african guy who says they treat women better at home and that the whites are barbaric lmao. There's also a part where you're forced to help jews. It's really bad. (especially the story in the second half, it's a mess but you most people don't see it) It's really a shame compared to KCD 1
>>3987229 >Warhorse Studios Isn’t that the studio where they claimed they cared more about historical accuracy rather than forced diversity or some bullshit? Only for them to add gay pedo stuff and unhistorical Black characters that had nothing to do with the setting at all?
>>3987319 Youre just a bitchboy. play your 2D graphics RPGs stupid boomer and stop moaning about 3D real time with incredible world building. The combat is flawed but i dont judge devs for experimenting.
>>3987320 >stop moaning about 3D real time with incredible world building KCD1 was great. The problem was that they fucked up everything that made the first one good, in the sequel, and now I don’t trust them or have faith in them. It’s over.
>>3987328 >it would make sense than it would be as good as KCD1 No, it doesn’t, because they’ve proven themselves to be subversives who will intentionally ruin whatever material they work with. There will be no more >incredible world building because that’s born out of sincerity.
>>3987331 >The gay shit is barely 1% of the game. Hans, well his real-life counterpart was only 15 during the events of the game, and Henry being 21 means that it’s unironic pedo stuff… How are you guys even defending this?
>>3987331 I said that KCD1 had good world building because it was sincere, and you immediately respond with a strawman about “owning the libs” and talking about faggots. Exactly my point, can’t just have a good and unique game, you just have to inject your disgusting grubby filthy political garbage and ruin literally everything. You are the problem.
>>3987334 Capon is clearly not 15 in the game retard. There would be no game if he was 15, clearly kcd1 and kcd2 have fabricated stories mixed with real.
>>3987287 People focus on the woke shit like the nigger they added but to me the sheer amount of jewish propaganda is far more egregious, makes me wonder if they added him in to divert attention away from it.
>>3987349 Yeah grooming was ripe in medieval times too retard, whats your point? You clearly have 0 knowledge of history or real life and play muh dungeuns and draguns.
damn, not only is colbert going to ruin LOTR via a tv show, but these awful retards are going to ruin LOTR via another shitty video game. the future sucks.
>Guy makes a game >Markets it by appealing to chuds by throwing out some talking points owning the libs that were popular at the time >Game is alright >Chuds think it's the best game ever made because it agrees with their worldview >Guy uses their money to get more funding for the second game and immediately sells out >Puts a black and some gay stuff in the game >Mindbreaks everyone here that enjoyed the first game You faggots keep falling for it. These people will use you every time. The culture war bullshit you believe in means nothing and no one that's important actually cares about it. They just use it to farm money off you and the retards on the other side doing the same thing.
This game might be good, it might not. I only played the first KC:D, and I enjoyed its open world but didn't like the combat. If they just make open world for the LotR game as immersive as KC, then it will be worth it I think. I'd rather the aesthetic stick to Peter Jackson's vision or Tolkien's idea of European fantasy and not modern American homogenised fantasy, but there's no indication of what it will look like, so why even get mad yet. Literally all we have is a tweet. It'll probably get cancelled quietly years from now.
>>3987661 I know, it's an abstraction to model the disconnect between the character and the player. But, board games don't mean dice games, they mean games played with boards. Chess is a board game.
>>3987689 It isn't just that. Eastern euros were convinced they are culturally superior and immune to "mutt" propaganda, so they rallied around Warhorse and CDPR. When those companies sold out and showed they were as "western" as any other company it was a big blow. They still haven't fully coped with this.
>>3987689 Which one of those three sound the least realistic? >A 10th century Arab from Baghdad travelling with a bunch of Varangians. >An 11th century Jew from Syria travelling around post-conversion Poland. >A 15th century Mali merchant plying his trade in Bohemia. >A bunch of 9th century Ethiopians building a chapel in Rome.
Three of those four things are in historical records.
>>3987707 >A 15th century Mali merchant plying his trade in Bohemia. This, the others make perfect sense. Varangians were widely traveled. Jews too. Ethopians, which aren't West Africans, had interactions with Europe for centuries.
>>3987746 Literally this, adding gay element to RPG games was the norm since fucking Fallout 1, now the alt-right moral police are trying to cancel the well built RPG for some miniscule meme gay/nigger/jew shit.
>>3987746 It is a big blow if you consider cosmopolitan gay shit Western Imperialist degeneracy, which is a holdover from Soviet thought and kinda true because Imperialism leads to boredom and cultural buffets. You aren't understanding that people form their identities around the shit they consume now and believe in their own superiority. You are doing it yourself by thinking "I see through the trick while buying product".
>>3987229 >company that has made two shitty chore games with retarded clunky combat >another retarded faggy lotr game Are you ready for niggers, araboids, jeets and faggots everywhere, drawing from the Amazon mongrel for lore, setting, aesthetics, tone and everything else. You're not getting what you think you're getting. But go ahead and cheer for the turds about to be dumped on your heads - make sure to open your mouthes wide
>>3987731 >interactions So did Rome and China, yet there were no more than 3 instances of direct contact. Ethiopia is of the same category, due to the shitskin between it and Europe. The civilizational level and power of mali at its prime has been severely inflated. A nigger would also not just be allowed to ply its trade like that. It's just anachronism upon anachronism upon a base of turds
>>3987898 Why are you responding to me? Mali was a shithole at the time, built on slavery and no Bohemian King would host a Muslim when looking with any ambition towards the HRE. Ethiopia was Christian and had been for a long long long time, though it got surrounded and cut off from Europe and the actual travel to Rome happened in the 14th and not the 9th century. There was also the whole Prester John thing. Not all black people are equal, stop your egalitarian bulllshit.
>>A British King literally married a Muslim princess and almost converted to Islam himself. It’s bait but you’d be surprised at how many people take statements like that at face value and don’t do any secondhand research to confirm or deny those claims themselves.
>>3987954 The big lie of most post-Enlightenment ideologies is that people on average care about the truth or thinking at all. The internet has conclusively proved that you cannot liberate mankind with knowledge.
>>3987966 that's why being able to kill NPCs in video games, especially in RPGames is so important if a twat isn't gonna listen, I mean why would he, then I should make my point with a mace to his face
>>3987334 >Hans, well his real-life counterpart >was only 15 during the events of the game, and Henry being 21 means that it’s unironic pedo stuff… >How are you guys even defending this? You burgers are so silly.
>>3990369 Anon slavery was common in all of Africa and the biggest building they had in Mali was a slightly larger than average mudhut.They were not actually rich.
>>3988636 It's just an extension of the "if you reply you lose" 4chan mentality. Simply posting means you were "baited" and therefore lost. It's basically just discussion taken to the maximal level of sociopathy.
>>3987287 People really downplay how egregious Musa is. It's one thing for him to say stupid shit and get away with it and being forced into the plot for no good reason, but in my opinion what really made Musa a bad character is the whole end game when you're stuck in that castle and everybody is becoming increasingly tired and hungry, but Musa is completely unphased, he's immune to hunger, he never gets into arguments with easily bothered people like the Dry Devil, and despite being an able-bodied man he is never expected to stand guard holding a sword or a crossbow to protect everybody. It's obvious he was just appended to the story, he isn't significant. Everything would've played out the same if he weren't there.
>>3987334 Why are you retarded retards keep repeating this claim as some kind of gotcha? 1) the only thing we know about real Hans Capon that he was born sometime before 1389, but we don't know when. And then he had a son in 1404. He was supposed to receive his estate when he reached adulthood but his relatives refused to give it to him and he only received it in 1415 by which time he would be at least in his late twenties, so that doesn't help us to find out his birth year either. Realistically he could have been anything from 14 to 24 in 1403. 2) this game is a historical fiction and the characters are only inspired by real people. We don't know how old real Lord Divish was. We don't know if his wife was much younger. We don't know how old Radzig was. Basically we know very little about these characters. In game they are created almost from scratch. 3) even if there was evidence that real Hans was 15 in 1403 it doesn't say anything about the ingame character. By this logic William Wallace fucked a 10 year old and got her pregnant in Braveheart.
>>3991040 paid shills, but if we're going with "what can be explained by stoopid" yada yada, they got brainwashed or they're tourists that wanna get in on Tolkien action, but without doing anything icky like playing real video games or reading a book written by some old man y'know?
>>3987229 Just don't do following the fellowship around again. Don't do Sauron at all in fact, set it in between the Necromancer being banished from Mirkwood and Fellowship. Hire the lore autists lotro uses to make an overarching villain and plot and then fill in the story from there.
>all the "based" slav game dev studios turned out to be the exact same libshit faggotry western slop is Who would have guessed... All game developers are faggots.
>>3993420 It's because culture doesn't arise from any country but from the technology. This is a mind virus that persists in the space provided by the absence of the feeling of necessity. This is why politics and art are always retarded and playing catch up.
>>3987229 I know this board is regularly spammed by the human male fighter poster, but having a LOTR rpg where we can't play a hobbit, dwarf, or maiar is going to be criminal.
