Two things regarding combat, I dont remember from which interview it is specifically, surely from some of the czech language videos, probably the one with Viktor Bocan (it's a shame that it doesnt have a good english subtitles, he is quite funny guy, great to listen to when talking about games): - reduction from 5 to 4 directions of hits is probably not gonna be diagonal (so I think more like a cross, up, down, left, right), because diagonal directions were problematic for players to hit in KCD1, as developers found out after the first game was done. People were not used to it and were very often missing combos. - the master strike system should be heavily reworked, specifically to disable a "perfect blocks" way to win a fight, which brought a lot of players to defensive combat style. Now offensive style should be as viable as defense when fighting enemies.

I think that will be the use case for combo's, but your attack will likely come in at the angle of your mouse position vs the centre of your view WITHING the bounds of one of the four cardinal directions. In that way, we should be able to apply strikes at areas we want to hit (once we get good), rather than being restricted to a general attack somewhere towards one side or another.

I do agree that a cross pattern would be a lot simpler to grasp when attacking from left,right,and top,but I'm wondering how they'll handle low strikes which are done at an angle on either side.🤔
@fred810k5

Diagonal is more likely, because in real life sword fighting you are fighting within those 4 diagonals. So if they care for historical authenticity, it will be diagonal.

@@ThatOtherGamer Good point. I was thinking it would (kind of like how you could partially control direction of strikes) be angled to the mouse direction from centre. In that way, if you want a low strike from the left, you move the mouse low left. If they do it this way though, there's going to be some zone control issues. Thinking more on it, diagonal strike zones seem to make more sense. Either way, I'm looking forward to seeing this iteration of the design. This combat system blew my mind. Hopefully they're able to balance out the prefect strikes more too.

I really hope they make it so you can block master strikes, they were a pain in the first game because it heavily discouraged aggressive combat because your opponent would just constantly animation lock you into them. Big reason why combos always felt useless, because more than 50% of the time I'd be master striked trying to complete them. I think it would of been better if instead of master strikes they added some sort of riposte system. The first game had something similar where if you chambered an attack before a parry you could quickly follow up, but a proper implementation would be better.

That's why you do a fist run. There's only like two animation locks, and it only happens against the highest level enemy's, and you can avoid it if you just step back or perfect block (it's more like a perfect dodge when unarmed)

I think we will be meeting king Wenceslaus IV in KCD II. Developers said that the game focuses more on the troubles of kings, instead of bandits in the country side. "Congratulations sir knight! You have become a man!" Could this be a hint that we will be officially knighted by king Wenceslaus IV? King Wenceslaus IV got released/rescued from captivity in 1403-1404 and he travelled first to Kuttenberg and then to Prague. This would fit into the timeline of the game.

Another problem with a time jump of any length, say to the Hussite wars, is that we know Hans Capon came into his inheritance as Lord of Rattay in 1412, and presumably wouldn't have been drinking and wenching his way through Trosky and Kutna Hora districts.

They really need to do something about master strikes. In the first game, the optimal strategy that was encouraged by the game after learning master strikes was a completely passive approach; defeating any enemy in single combat is guaranteed as long as you land master strikes. I don't think this approach is realistic (at least when looking at HEMA footage, and historical fencing manuals suggest a far more aggressive approach as well) and more importantly, it's not fun or interesting.

If you want details on the game look no further. Just read my comment. You'll find proof on other KZitem videos but I'll package it right here. All of it. Fishing can't be ruled out yet. Swimming can't be ruled out yet. There is a separate button for lifting or lowering your helmet visor. Visor down still interrupts your in game vision and view of the world. Other returning characters. Godwin is back with same actor and voice. Wear and tear on clothes and weapons are more in depth now. Blacksmithing is back and just as deep as alchemy. Cats are in the get now. You can get branded which will have a negative impact on Henry. And the scar left over will have an everlasting effect on Henry on that playthrough. Crime has been overhauled. Combat is just a brutal and hard. But can be adjusted for newbies who like things easy. Same with lock picking. Horses react and handle better along with your characters movement in the game. Everything has been expanded and enhanced in the game. Only 1 bohemoth of a map. With only 1 loading screen. It's like 2 maps in 1. Just very very huge. Only time you have a load screen other than loading the game up is when you load into the other area of the map! That's it. You can straight back and go back the other way go wherever you want to. Just only 1 loading screen between the map! You don't have to load up a separt map or anything like that. Hope this helps

The time skip is 11 years, and will likely end with the peace treaty being signed, and start back up with the death of Jan Hus. We'll be seeing the period between 1414 and 1419. As far as I'm aware, Henry in the first game is only 16-18 years old. By the time of the Hussite wars, he'd be about 30 and - as a warrior - near his physical and experiential prime. I think that is what we're going to be seeing.

Would be the best of both worlds!

KCD 2 is definitely not taking place in 1403. From what we already know it is clearly 1421 and maybe 2 years before. It because those guys in red we keep seeing are 100% Utraquists (Sub-faction of Hussites based Prague) so Hussite wars (1419-1434) are basically confirmed. As well as major location is Kuttenberg where major battle takes place in 1421. Which is probably that siege they keep showing us.
