Warhorse Studios has at long last come through with the big news that everybody in the gaming world was talking about. The next chapter in the Kingdom Come Deliverance series is, indeed, very close to being released, and players will be led to a ghostly place only. The Sedletz Monastery, situated beyond Kuttenberg, is the location where, it seems, faith and secrets are intertwined. The forthcoming update Mysteria Ecclesiae is set to be released on November 11, which is practically just around the corner.
What has the DLC in store for us? The developers’ tweet refers to a spot where “faith and secrets intertwine”, which is quite enigmatic and, to some extent, gives me the creeps. Players have made their comments, one of them, Allenias, stating, “Soooo, the side quest creep the fk out of me, and you give me FULL DLC ABOUT IT… I… I will try,” and I totally agree with him. The whole scenario of the monastery is bringing to everyone’s minds that certain aspect in the first game that most players loved to hate.
The Kingdom Come community has gone nuts with their reaction to the new content coming for the game. Among the most excited are those who are really happy– user Sai_fr_A who just wrote “Im in love” in response to the announcement. Xanyr, on the other hand, had the quickest and most appropriate reaction of all, “You cannot leave the monastery, oh God not again!” Because yes, we all seem to remember how that went last time, right? The monastery section in the original Kingdom Come was… an experience to say the least.
However, not everything is smooth in the comments section. The onus is on the users to clarify things and, for that, dzakidj, one of them, asked, “Why can’t I purchase Mysteria Ecclesiae separately? I have already bought Legacy of the Forge and Brushes with Death, but there is no option available for the purchase of Mysteria Ecclesiae separately,” which is a perfectly reasonable question. Others have also joined the ranks of those offering assistance, for instance, Chadfrey, who explained, “DLCs in KCD are always independent of one another,” so there is at least that little bit of good news to carry away.
Then there is the issue of availability on different platforms. TAFULES has commented that “En PlayStation no está,” which translates to “It’s not available on PlayStation,” and shared a screenshot to corroborate that the game is still not available there. This must be very disappointing for the PlayStation users who are ready to re-enter the medieval Bohemia world and are now made to wait.
The timing of the release is now another hot topic. Nathan084 asked in a straightforward manner, “Hi! Can you tell us what time the DLC comes out tomorrow?” while Kacper lipa wanted to know, “What’s the time in the UK? Is it 6 pm or what? Also, are there any new horses?” For, let us be honest, everyone is curious about the horse gear situation; nobody wants their online medieval horse looking shabby or unkempt.
The view of technical difficulties has also been a talking point. The first user, t1red.tokyo, wrote, “Bro my last dlc is still broken,” depicting the company’s unfortunate situation. May be Warhorse will be able to remove such a barrier before the new content gets released.
LJ has reignited the discussion about the map size when he said, “It’s a shame we can’t explore the maps entirely when you add up the space that should be available on both maps it’s just under half is actually explorible. With KCD1 we could walk to the edge of the map now you can’t even get 20 miles away before it makes you turn around.” Gustav Pepa then replied, “Because these edges of maps are not graphically enough developed in KCD2, thus the game won’t let you there. Unfortunately.” That’s the way it goes.
Support for the Arabic language was a discussion that arose, which would benefit Kingdom Come: Deliverance II in terms of popularity and sales in the Middle East the same way The Witcher 3 did. The latter was made a best-selling title in the region after it was localized into Arabic. This argument is sound if one considers the business aspect of it.
The old debate about third-person opposed to first-person has flared up again, with one user, Buck, saying, “Third Person view will ruin this game,” before, someone else, Gustav Pepa comes along and supports the decision, “Why didn’t Witcher 3 have a first-person view? It’s just the game design that the game is made according to and developer decides on that. Warhorse wanted first-person view for this game.” The controversy appears to be still thriving.
