What You Should Know Before Starting Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is a massive RPG with intricate systems. Even the save system is unique, so let's start there.
Savior Schnapps
The game autosaves at key story points, when sleeping, and upon quitting. For manual saves, you'll need Savior Schnapps, a potent alcoholic beverage. Purchase it from merchants (if you can afford it) or brew it yourself via alchemy. Remember, excessive consumption can lead to critical intoxication levels when used to save.
Find Mutt
Mutt, your canine companion, is invaluable in combat, investigations, and skill upgrades. Seek him out as soon as a quest allows; his assistance is significant.
Bargaining
Always haggle when buying or selling. Even small savings add up, especially early in the game.
Learn from Teachers
Invest in skill training, particularly swordsmanship at the Gypsy Camp. The skills learned are well worth the Groschen.
Drying and Smoking
Food spoils; preserve it by smoking meat and drying other foods. This also applies to herbs and mushrooms used for potions.
Personal Chest
Utilize personal chests in taverns and other locations to store items safely. Chests are synchronized, allowing access from any personal chest. Stolen goods placed in a chest will eventually become unflagged (3-12 days depending on value).
Appearance Matters
Your appearance impacts how others treat you. Maintain hygiene, repair or replace clothing, and choose outfits strategically for different situations (combat, diplomacy, stealth).
Monitor Your Stamina
Stamina is crucial in combat. Rest when it gets low to avoid taking increased damage. Avoid overeating, as it reduces maximum stamina.
Alchemy and Blacksmithing
Mastering these crafts allows you to create powerful potions and weapons, including Savior Schnapps, and earn Groschen through sales. Remember to sharpen your weapons.
Side Quests
Don't neglect side quests; many are engaging and offer valuable rewards. Some become unavailable after certain story events.
Ultimately, play Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 your way. These tips provide opportunities; how you utilize them shapes your unique journey.
