Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 feels like a hobgoblin game. A game for late nights, sick days off work. A game you can obsess over. It's a wonderful historical romp for the average video game-enjoyer, if they have the constitution to munch on the occasional wave of tedium. Allow me to make a case for the game's merit by comparing it to the inevitable rival it'll have in the eyes of gamers: The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim for good measure.

I’m ashamed to say that I could not play the first game because I NEVER managed to pick a lock.

Could never pick a lock either. I quit because I couldn't hit anything with a bow and that noble guy made fun of me.

Really? Even in the little tutorial one with the miller?

The very first one, that’s in a small house/shed. And because we can’t save the game everywhere, I had to reload the las checkpoint to try again. It was really stressful. I play on XBox, so I don’t know if with a keyboard it’s easier. All I know is that I gave up.

It seems to be easier with the mouse. But iirc they later patched it for consoles to make lock picking easier because a lot of people struggled.

Oh, maybe I’ll give it another try.
