There was a story to Kingdom Come: Deliverance that went beyond "my parents were killed by baddies, and luckily I was recognised as a badass because of the plot, now I'm going to become more of a badass, and kill all the Cumans?"
- thom 5y agoWith the caveat that I very much enjoyed Kingdom Come, it’s bog-standard story didn’t even _end_ in the game.
- Toutouxc 5y agoYes. My parents (and almost everyone in our village) were killed by baddies hired by someone for some political reason, I was recognized as a lame illiterate nobody and was only reluctantly accepted to serve under a master of regional importance, who is pursuing his own political goals (and has a special connection to me through something) and making the most of the difficult situation of the kingdom. I was sent on several wildly different missions to investigate, bribe or fight my way through several interesting events and situations, all totally believable and anchored in the context of the story and actual history, meeting dozens of different characters, some of them real historical figures, each with their own carefully written backstory.
- watwut 5y agoIs it just me or it really sound completely standard plus backstories for side characters? I mean, the story can be well executed without it being super original. But what you described here is one of super standard fantasy plots.
