From GameWatcher: "Warhorse Studios' debut game, Kingdom Come: Deliverance was involved in controversy prior to release regarding the general lack of diversity in the game. Criticism was raised against the lack of diversity in the title. The developers defended their decision by citing historical accuracy, which was a major marketing angle of the game."
The PR manager of Warhorse revealed in a new interview that Kingdom Come Deliverance 1 won't be getting a remake or remaster and the team is fully focused on Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 & future projects.
That's a terrible decision. Just adding a higher frame rate options or next gen latch would generate a ton of interest from new players.
Critics tend to get most things right, but occasionally, they slip up and doom games to a bleak fate, as seen here.
Still have Forspoken and KC:Deliverance on my huge backlog list. Don’t know when I’m going to get around to them though.
7 and 4 are the only 2 I played on this list and even regardless of their negative press. I had a blast with both games, and I have no regrets with them.
Hilarious to me how Kingdom Come 2 has scored well so far when the first was attacked by the same sites that apparently enjoyed the second. Glad they could make a sequel cause so many games have been the target of journo slander and been denied the chance.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is set to be released at the start of February in most areas of the world but it may have already received a ban in Saudi Arabia. This apparent ban is due to “unskippable gay scenes” that are found in the game’s story mode. Hints about the ban came a few days prior, but multiple news outlets are now reporting that Kingdom Come: Deliverance II has officially been banned in the country.
We need to appreciate the strict rules of Islam, but we also need to appreciate the amazing freedoms we enjoy. Lets be thankful and appreciative of our friends.
If you play a game set in 15th century Bohemia and your concern is that nobody shoe horned non-whites into the game just to appease foul SJWs and their pathetic diversity quotas, then you're playing the game for the wrong reasons and i'd wonder whether you're even much of a gamer at all.
There really was no controversy. Just the usual SJW nonsense, and Warhorse were very well rewarded for standing their ground where other cowardly game devs would've given in.
If historically accurate becomes offensive then we are basically living in a revisionist dystopia.
SJWs really are cancer. There is literally no pleasing them, here's an article where Vice complained about TOO MANY black people in Far Cry 5: https://news.vice.com/en_us...
I bought it day one just because of that honestly lol. I played one hour and decided to wait for the patches. I will probably dive into it after God of War. I’m sure they have patched it significantly by now.
👏
Love this studio and their willingness to not put up with PC Bullsh*t and SJW Nonsense.
