Nowadays games are very repetitive and grindy. That's very unfortunate as it kills the game. Very few of them have engaging side quests that don't feel like generic AI generated crap. So longer gameplay doesn't automatically equate to better quality games.
I absolutely love kingdom come deliverance 2. Usually in games like that i just mainline the game and even then i usually don't finish them. I did everything in this game before i even touched the main quest. The game is just very fun to play.
I have the first part, but I am not exactly sold on it. I really like the idea, the historical precision, etc., but the gameplay, especially the fight mechanics are a bit putting me off to a point that I have never completed it. Is the second part better in that regard?
It's working out good for me personally. Between that trend and having gamepass. I don't have much time to game any more, so can barely get past a tutorial before real life steps in. By that point I feel like I get it though so it's OK.
