Group D: “The game industry is full of the game creators described above, and we’re sick of them! We want to make our own vision a reality, however because we position the art above all, we have no investors, no money, barely any employees, and not much actual development experience or skill. Group C: “Make an appealing looking Kickstarter concept (usually appealing to nostalgia but not always), make some cool looking half-assed demos and environments, get that kickstarter/patreon money and then skip town!” If it appeals to nostalgia, it will sell!” Let’s just copy that – make games with old technology, the actual quality of the game is irrelevant. Group B: “Alright guys, we aren’t very skilled or capable but we see that a lot of nostalgic gamers like old games and old graphics. We develop in cycles, no time for major new features or innovation that won’t significantly increase sales anyway!” Found a successful formula? Stick with it. Group A: “We’re an AAA studio, let’s figure out how to spit out the highest grossing product in the shortest amount of time. Modern game development can generally be split up into four groups: So that’s a total of 102 hours, and that includes a fair amount of side quests but not nearly all of them. It is a vast game, with my first complete playthrough requiring 82.6 hours to reach the epilogue plus another 20 hours on top of that for the two DLCs, From the Ashes and The Amorous Adventures of Bold Sir Hans Capon. I can’t think of any other historical RPGs. This makes it one of a kind as far as I know when you think if RPGs, they’re almost always either fantasy, science fiction, or post-apocalyptic. Created by Warhorse Studios and released in 2018, Kingdom Come is a first person historical open world action RPG. It took me some time to get around to finally playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance, and I’m glad I finally played it.
