Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 isn't a walk in the park; it presents a significant challenge. If you're wondering about adjusting the difficulty, here's the lowdown.
Does Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Have Difficulty Options?
The short answer is no. Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 doesn't offer in-game difficulty settings. There's a single, default difficulty level. However, the game does become more manageable with experience. Here are some tips to ease your journey:
- Prioritize a Bed: Finding a bed early is crucial. Sleeping allows you to save and heal, avoiding the dangers of nighttime travel.
- Follow the Main Questline: Begin with "Wedding Crashers." This questline introduces core mechanics.
- Complete Early Side Quests: Quests for the blacksmith or miller provide valuable experience and Groschen (in-game currency).
- Save Often: Use your Saviour Schnapps liberally to save your progress outside of quest checkpoints.
How to Unlock Hardcore Mode
For those seeking an even greater challenge, a Hardcore Mode is planned. This update, arriving post-launch, will increase enemy difficulty and introduce a negative starting perk. Important note: once you start a Hardcore playthrough, you can't adjust the difficulty.
