  1. I will probably update on this since I haven't even properly started playing yet, no instead I have been on the home screen and in the selection screen for approx. 30Minutes enjoying the amazing music and all the feelings coming to light seeing this game. Purely based on this experience I enjoyed my time like back in the day when I discovered the prequel I haven't come into contact with gameplay as of now, yet I am quite satisfied already.

    to my shock I have seen many negative reviews just now looking at what other people think not understanding to the slightest in some regards, one person I pulled into discussion demanded graphics that resemble First Person story games where I ask myself which misconception made this man think that any Graphics card could render a war scenario with every character looking like a unreal AAA Title story games character non the less his Gear from 6 Years ago........ 

    Edit 1: Got quite "addicted" to the game and understand the bad reviews even less, I personally would say this is a successful sequel made with a lot of love. I haven't been this lost in a game for ages and it's not only the nostalgic boost for me they promised something and delivered BIG time! 
    As I read more reviews it is clear that they seem to be a bit contradicting for some the game is too similar to the prequel while for others it is too distant, another common aspect for negative reviews seems to be the "old" graphics in this regard I am less supporting the fact that the graphics are something negative I like that this will run on any machine however I do agree that there could be a higher variety of settings thus a higher "threshold" or "max graphic" so to speak. have not encountered big issues yet but since I follow my faithful full merchant 1 Knight tactic I play rather slow till I get just an absurd amount of money (Yes, I am aware of the raised difficulty in archiving this).

    I sincerely hope everyone enjoys the game! I sure do!

     

    Edit 2: found some small bugs I will try to replicate them and then check the forum if they are reported already. I do not want to spread any bugs that are system specific yet since my machine is heavily modified.

  2. Dear Dev's & Community,

     

    I noticed that Images posted by the community have their exif data overwriten (which I am really happy about great work) 

    so I recommend a randomized name for images as well. I for example made an terrible mistake and I am not able to delete that post anymore which has private information within the files name.

     

    tell me what you think about this.

     

    best regards,

    volkayno

  3. I would be honoured to be an merchant if I am honest since I am Kurdish and we are merchants in our roots but I am to insecure to post a picture of my self publicly.

     

    got to say though amazing work didn't expect something like that to be possible.

    Uninstalling and reinstalling got it to run.

    Don't understand why that worked, but it did.

  5. tbh I was only there for one stream but I gotta say it was fun with everyone not just a single person also I find my self staring at the thqnordic logo quiet often since they announced Knights of Honor II by that I don't mean bc I wanted to support them or something I just noticed some really good and interesting games I have been watching or playing where published by them bc I got to know THQ Nordic for the first time and when you once start focusing on something yo will notice it where ever you go, same goes for knights of honor I's publisher p***** even if I am not from the us and the european publisher was s***** I have never noticed s****** involved in any other game I played but it might be because I never took notice of them.

     

    best regards to everyone that I meet during the livestream it was nice and I hope to be there again.

    I hate games with addictive concepts where you do the same thing over and over without depth (even tho9ught they get me from time to time) they make me feel like I am wasting time (I don't count competitive games since that is about competition) to give an example I recently tried out powerwash simulator.

     

    About my self

    the past few years I have not been too well in multiple aspects and I feel like a mess but nevertheless I started studying and keep going, regarding gaming I kind of lose the touch to it compared to prior my 3,5~ years without proper internet and feel like wasting my time no matter what I do I feel like I can not comfortably enjoy life at this stage.

    No, they said that you can make your own king into a spy and send your own king to do spy actions in another country. Minute 54 of the stream, in fact Alex said "king is the best spy with extra bonuses".

     

     

    oh well, my bad. if its this way around that works as well since in medieval times not everyone knew how the king looks, since information travelled by church priests messengers or the kings traveling within their own country, and drawings made for kings and royalty most of the time are in their own hall anyways or if we take Cleopatra as example or many more they are even fake looking extremely good or how they would want to look or last version they would be really really undetailed like here.

     

    I got to mention there is no social media or photography either

    With the reference to the Dev Stream:

    1) King as a spy is a stupid mechanic. There is no plastic surgery, how can you infiltrate another kingdom as a king, come on. At least make a penalty on kingdom power if you make your king into a spy, "the rumors are spreading that the king left us and nowhere to be found, the kingdom power has decreased". 

    2) You probably want to have dynamic balancing of cost of spy actions based on distance to a target kingdom. It appears to me that in a multiplayer setting it would be very easy to suddenly focus spy power on a single target kingdom anywhere on a map. Such focus fire cannot happen with military power since armies have to walk the distance, but spies, as I understand it, ignore physical distances. 

    3)  In context of multiplayer it needs to be some mechanics to aid an ally with counter spying. If you can have enemy team doing spy actions on you all at once, there should be a way for your allies to help you out to balance that. Or your own counter spying should be more and more effective if there are multiple nations spying on you at the same time.

    4) If you disable or turn down spy actions settings for a multiplayer game remove kingdom advantages and skills connected to spy actions, because people will not pay attention and invest into spy related stuff to find out that actions they were planning to do are not available. Or at least make a notification/confirmation so people won't select it without thinking.

    5) In a contest of multiplayer what will prevent a lot of people from all other the map bribing essentially everyone in your royal court? In a context of single player with human being an enemy for half of the map, what stops AI from doing spy actions to the player to dust non stop? I can envision a player being at war with more AI kingdom at once than you have slots in your royal court.

    6) There is a bunch of spy actions which are revolving around diplomatic relations between kingdoms. In context of multiplayer will a human relations to a human override the action of the spy action ( spy action 'war is declared' - human 'not it is not') or the spy action actually would work over the head of the human player?

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    as I understand regarding your issue Nr 1. that only happens if the person you have as spy gets to be king afterwards

    It would be great to hear what your thoughts are on KoH back in the days, and what you liked and disliked about it, or even what you like and dislike about other grand strategy games you’ve played recently. Do you prefer single player or multiplayer? What are some classic mechanics that are important to you and what new features would you like to see in the game?

    I always loved that even as a really small kid that doesn't speak English I was able to learn how to play KoH I and that it was really fun I tried a ton of other strategy games but most of them are way to strategic/complex I mean I don't want to learn a game for 200 hours just to play it another 200 I always missed how easy of an good experience it was playing KoH I the most complex thing for me as a kid was to understand the importance of thinking ahead what to use the building slots in a city for, and even that wasn't too big of a hassle since I decided first build everything you can build with special resource's of the city and then build generic stuff to make people happy (I always went with an merchant approach)

  11. Since KoH I was in a gaming magazine in my childhood I played it for an unfathomable amount of time then I grew up and obviously lost the cd and bought it over steam twice already (I am a champ in loosing stuff) so I checked quiet frequently for KoH II and first heard of it pretty early (I believe over twitter) and there was barely anything shown I am glad the game is progressing and to see the community somewhat active
