games anymore, everything sacrificed at the altar of convenience and simplicity. KCD II rewards the dedicated and punishes the unprepared.

a bug in sight. Truly a rarity in the modern gaming space. Kingdom Come Deliverance II is Warhorse's Witcher III moment, a triumphant statement that loudly declares what this team is capable of, and I could not be more excited to see where they go from here.
