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.

My main issue with the first game was that I felt like it didn't respect my time. There were some missions where the game would send you miles away to get something or find a person, only for you to arrive there and have an NPC go "Nah it's not here" and send you miles in the other direction and do the same thing, and sometimes arbitrarily dump like 6 bandits on you along the way that you had no hope of defeating, so you'd die and go all the way back to square one again. I had to bail on eventually because of that.
