ALSO holy fuck they made the right decision getting a real voice actor for Godwin in 2 lol

Absolutely. He was always a good character, but his acting in 1 was flat and weirdly American-accented. In 2, he's got way more emotional inflection and an accent that fits in with the rest.

Can't wait to spend my whole Sunday just Henryin' around.

Did anyone else experience that "follow path" with a horse stopped working? The prompt doesn't even show up in the UI.

(I'm on the Kuttenberg map now btw)

Never happened to me. Try reloading or restarting the game, game sometimes has weird bugs.

You sure? I read it was a different actor as well.

Turns out I did it to myself.. I changed "road magnetism" to "automatic" in the settings without realizing it disables the "follow path" manual function. Oh well..

I'm not sure if it's in the second, but I just realized there's a button to unlock your target in the first one and that's done WONDERS on my ability to fight multiple people.

It's a hold prompt, so I just hold the button to free look at whoever I need to be on, then let go and it focuses me right back into the combat targeting mode

Different VA in the English dub. Randall Scott Williams in 1 and then Evan Macnaughton in 2

Here is where you can find hundreds of belladonas. Southwest from Tacov where im standing.

Also once you have the secrets of secrets 2 and dark alchmey perk, you can make Henry quality potions even with dried materials. Just make them after midnight when your dark alchemy perk activates.

Just found the Dark Souls reference lol.

So around 38 hours in now, and i hate how trivial combat has become. I feel like it went from too hard to too easy almost immediately. I still get into those idiotic parry/riposte back and forth with some shield guys, but most of the time i am basically spamming the attack button and winning.

I also dont think side quests are anything truly amazing. the only one i kind of liked was when you hunt down the blacksmith's wagon. The rest are fairly cookie cutter. I get that i still havent been to the wedding and the main quest is likely going to be better, but i expected more from such a highly reviewed game. ME2 and ME3 are still GOAT when it comes to side quests.

Finally traveled 35k kilometers with my horse so no more encumbrance. Still, just let me trade items from my horse. this shouldnt be that hard to code.

Going to go to the wedding now. And finally start the game. At least now i can play the game without getting too frustrated.

The beauty of KCD2:

I'm 80 hours in now, ideally I'd like to be done before Monster Hunter Wilds releases this Friday but I'm not going to rush it, Henry still has a lot of adventuring ahead. I'll save further thoughts until completion in one of my signature epic posts but for now I'll just say that my 80th hour reaffirms what I knew in my 20th hour: KCD2 will absolutely be on my GOTY shortlist come the end of 2025
