Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 presents a challenging gameplay experience. If you're wondering about difficulty adjustments, here's the breakdown.
Difficulty Settings in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2?
The short answer is no. Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 lacks in-game difficulty settings. There's a single, default difficulty level. However, the game's challenge lessens as you progress and become more familiar with its mechanics.
Here are some strategies to improve your gameplay if you're finding it tough:
-
Prioritize a Bed: Secure a bed early on. Sleeping allows saving and healing, crucial for survival, especially as nighttime travel is risky.
-
Follow the Main Questline: Begin with the "Wedding Crashers" quest. This introduces core gameplay elements.
-
Complete Early Quests: Undertake quests for the blacksmith or miller. These provide essential early-game experience and Groschen (in-game currency) for purchasing items and weapons.
-
Utilize Saviour Schnapps: Don't hesitate to use Saviour Schnapps to save your progress outside of quest checkpoints. The game auto-saves at key points, but Schnapps offers additional safety nets.
Hardcore Mode:
For those seeking a heightened challenge, a Hardcore Mode is planned. This will be added via a post-release update, increasing enemy difficulty and imposing a negative starting perk. Crucially, once initiated, the Hardcore Mode difficulty cannot be altered during a playthrough.
