Kingdom Come: Deliverance Reviews
Kingdom Come: Deliverance is one of the most engrossing and captivating RPGs I've ever played.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance is a great game that's almost held back a bit by what makes it so special. I loved the dynamic world and the chase for realism within it, but I didn't like the difficulty spikes that come with it – when you lose a few hours of progress because you haven't saved things can feel quite frustrating. Luckily the team is hard at work and is continuisly improving the game, so your experience with this one will certainly be even better than mine. In the end, it's a great game that is worth playing on PlayStation 4 and which I'm sure wil win several awards this year.
Kingdom Come is an ambitious game and if it wasn't for its awful save system and bugs and other numerous technical issues, it could've been an incredible game. But as it is, Kingdom Come is a deep role playing game with interesting quests and mostly fine combat. So I suggest it for RPG lovers and people who don't have problem wwith the game's themes and setting

Kingdom Come: Deliverance delivers a fun and content-rich RPG to be explored. With a challenging combat and an impeccable historical setting, the game relies heavily on its protagonist, exposing the soul of a game that still lacks much attention and technical adjustments.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance deserves a lot of credit for succeeding in its highly ambitious and original realism-driven approach to role-playing game design, though the amount of broken quests and general lack of polish in combination with an ill-conceived save system bring down the experience significantly.
Offers up a decent, if predictable, story with interesting characters, beautiful scenery, and ambitious concepts but falls short with numerous glitches, annoying mini-games, and a lack of player immersion.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance could have been a wonderful experience. A collection of features and mechanics come together to form something truly inspiring. Sadly it's difficult to notice that with frequent crashes (don't touch the cheese), game-breaking bugs, texture issues, animation woes, AI problems, broken quests, and near pointless mounted combat. Until patches have addressed these problems, I would suggest avoiding the PlayStation 4 version.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance has many distinctive ideas that can really help in the development of the RPG games in a perfect way in the future, but the reliance on just realism does not guarantee success under the fact that video games are an Entertainment industry in the first place, add to that the world has found a huge virtual but near empty, the impact of the first person's perspective is negatively on battles, scenarios and conversations that try to look deep but they are not actually.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance might lack the technical polish of most large scale projects but it certainly doesn't fail to deliver an ambitious and expansive open world RPG.
Kingdom Come is a unique roleplaying experience, full of interesting ideas and brutal medieval atmosphere. Which would be awesome, if not for a bunch of bugs and technical issues.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance is an unusual success story that leaves us with an important message: in this day and age, a large amount of players can —and will enjoy— a complex game that doesn't hold you back. We loved every second: getting lost in Bohemia sprawling forests, riding horseback on green prairies, bleedin in the thick of combat and getting stuck between some odd bushes. Kingdom Come: Deliverance it's a game we can recommend, with caution due its numerous rough edges.

With Kingdom Come: Deliverance, Warhorse Studios has managed to create an amazing RPG experience with a deep gameplay, an historical accuracy and a really great adventure for you to live, despite some critical flaws that make the game sometimes quite difficult to play.

If you're looking for an open-world RPG that tends to throw you into the deep end, Kingdom Come: Deliverance definitely scratches that itch. The game could still use some patches, and I suspect many people are going to want to dip into mods to smooth down some of the title's rougher edges. There's a fine game under the layers of clunky systems and punishing early mechanics, but Kingdom Come: Deliverance is enjoyed as much as it is endured, and how often that wavers back and forth is perhaps the game's largest shortcoming.
For every positive thing that Kingdom Come does with its storytelling, setting, and themes, it then lets itself down with childish writing, and then doesn't help itself out by being so ambitious that, even beyond the bugs, the game has structural issues that are difficult to ignore.
As realistic, historically accurate, unrelenting, casual-unfriendly, open-word RPG games go, Kingdom Come: Deliverance is probably the best on offer right now. It's only worthy of the bronze medal, though, as it's very far from perfect, and the amount of flaws at hand mean that this is quite the dirty kind of bronze medal.
Time and time and again even after frustration I kept going back to give the game a chance. And each time I come out just frustrated. My recommendation? Wait a few months for Warhorse Studios to fix everything before buying it. You’re just gonna be turned away from the game. Even then, be prepared for a massive patch to download.
In my opinion, Kingdom Come: Deliverance is decent title marred by technical shortcomings. Warhorse are clearly a talented but inexperienced team who have a passion for their creation. I wouldn’t go so far as to recommend it to everyone, I’d maybe even suggest waiting for a drop in price. If you want to run around and just smash some guys whilst hunting for magical loot I’d avoid it.
Everything else, from the music and sound design to the various weather effects, the day-night cycle, and so on, adds to the immersion of the game. That is not to say there aren’t any issues. The game has a lot of bugs and performance issues that persist to this day. If you can ignore that, which is easily feasible as everything else is outstanding, then you have one of the best realistic RPGs ever made.
Kingdom Come strived for novelty, immersive storytelling, and realistic features. It checked all of these boxes and then some. It provides a truly unique experience. Unfortunately, many of these features can become difficult to manage and can limit user experience. That said, it is a game that any fan of historical fiction needs to play and is sure to stay in their rotation for years to come
