Idk why but I’ve spent more time playing dice than anything else in this game.

I just want to be rich…
Got quite a few nice dice and a lot of badges but half expecting the opponent to accuse me of cheating every time I play with three dice that always roll a 3 and others that lean towards odd numbers. 3,4,5 or 6 3s and a lot of 1s and 5s make it impossible to lose. The Small Treasures perk and murdering bandits set my dice game up so well.

On reddit one guy has six of the "3" rolling dices. Easy 2400 points every turn. :messenger_tears_of_joy:

Good question. I would check where you bought yr new horse...assuming you was riding over there. Maybe she still stands around there somewhere. Or did you actually sold/traded Pepples in? (not sure if that even possible)
I think we are talking about different things because i lost the plot dude :lollipop_grinning_sweat:
Sorry if it's a spoiler but you get the choice of another horse further into the story which replaces pebbles if you had her before that point in the game. So I wonder how I would go about getting back that old nag.
 
This game is a tier above the rest, imo. Its "side quests" are better than most games' main quests. Its "tasks" are better than most games' side quests.

It follows naturally that its main quests are GOAT.

I have 48 hours logged so far. I freaking love this game. I played it 3 days straight Friday-Sunday, and the only reason I'm not playing it right now is stupid work.

I had the same Pebbles conundrum and you can re-buy Pebbles in the Semine Horse trader. At least, I did manage to buy him back after getting gifted the other horse.

Now I'm back with Pebbles!

Ok…..I saved Pavlena and slept in the bed at their house labeled ‘your bed’ and she hollered for guards (what? Can’t sleep after saving you?) Guard came and I had to kill him. I traveled to the nearest town and paid for a bed at an inn. Woke up at 6:00 am with a guard questioning me. I surrendered. Got taken to the square and got branded to my neck, as a criminal…..all for sleeping in a bed in a home of the person I just saved.

It’s BS but definitely a ‘role playing game’ unlike that JRPG anime stuff they call ‘role playing’.

I guess I’ll keep on keeping on with the brand on my neck. But damn!!!

yeah, for a game so heavily into systems, cant believe they overlooked that. she wants you to sleep on the floor on the other side of the room. They couldve just written a line of dialogue where she tells you where to sleep but no thats expecting too much from these devs.

She actually got mad at me after i killed the farmer for her and I dared to go into her alchemy room. Absolutely ridiculous. You literally let me make a herb in that room a day ago before i rescued your daughter and literally killed for you, but now i cant even enter it?

You also cant go into your own Alchemy hut in the first village at night. The game literally tells you its your first Alchmey table and then five minutes later some guard walks in saying that you shouldnt be up at night. So i had to leave and wander around until i found a place to sleep in a barn just to kill time till morning. thankfully no one caught me.

Get stuck between 2 rocks, floating mid-air, lose 1 hour gaming.

I already lost another hour because I had the save bug that makes them load in 1mn instead of 5sec (it seems it's because of broken npc routines)...

Don't make a game so restricting when you can't code. :messenger_poop:
Yo there was this one time the other day I was trying to get myself unstuck from between rocks. I was jumping up and down and eventually when jumping up it was like my character was shot out of a canon. Was thrown a good distance and died. It was hilarious.
 
Ohhhh hellllll noooooo!!!!!

Just started the quest Divine Messenger, immediately paused once it started, it better not be doing what I think it's about to do....

are in a big trouble
I still haven't gone to the wedding at the start of the game lol. I'm just wandering around and stealing doing the odd side quest. I have robbed the tailor shop 3 times now to the point the tailor got a new lock. It's now set to hard difficulty which is just amazing. The tailor thought he was being smart but his front door is set to very easy and his keys to his new lock were also very easy to find :messenger_tears_of_joy::messenger_tears_of_joy:

Wait so is this game genuinely good? I missed its release the reception seems great
It's pretty good but the reception and sales it's had aren't representative of the quality of the game.

It's quite buggy and still has that eurojank the first game had. Not quite as bad but still.

  • same glitchy staircases you get stuck on
  • same NPCs bumping into each other in doorways
  • same NPC voices where a sentence will be really low volume
  • Floating rocks and other objects are frequent
  • Lightning and rain indoors or in underground caves
  • Larger battles are quite bad because the combat is suited to fighting 1 or 2 foes
  • Some NPCs being held prisoner or being tortured still have a weapon hanging from their belt
  • I had a bug where I chose some dialogue options then reloaded a save from before (a manual save) and came to that part again but it acted like I had just done the same things as before I loaded the save
  • Some minor NPCs will have two voice actors
Gameplay wise it's generally quite good. It's mostly about enjoying the story and the world (the cutscenes and general writing for dialogue and story are good). Combat is okay but you become godlike quite quickly and opponents don't stand a chance against you. You can win duels in 2 hits.

The game also has one of the single worst quests/missions I've ever seen in a game and I do not know how it went through play testing.
It's called 'Storm'. Go and google it if you want. It's a forced stealth mission where you have a debuff that makes you walk (and I am not exaggerating here) at a crawling pace and there's guards everywhere. A lot of the environment can be a bit glitchy and I noticed I was near a cliff edge and it was bouncing me up and down against the hill. It was ridiculous and reminded me of KCD1.
The AI in this mission is awful too as they randomly walk very quickly and often start walking right up to you when you're perfectly hidden in a bush.
 
On this episode of the Misadventures of Henry:

The Wedding

First of all, I rolled up like a Bohemian pimp because you've got to do it properly:

Lffzfob.jpeg


I took the blacksmith route to get here and I appreciated he commented that I was "decked out to the 9's" when I initiated the quest already in my Sunday best, I imagine had I approached him in my armor he would have instructed me to put on something more appropriate.

After arriving I was impressed by the pomp and splendour, the atmosphere, the merriment, the myriad conversations happening everywhere, *the side quests within the main quest to engage with should I choose to do so*, all the characters who I had already established a relationship with based on the prior quests I completed, it was all just *perfect*. I won't go into detail for fear of spoilers but I'll just say I love the way it concluded lol.

What happens after is where things really got interesting though and now I WILL use spoiler tags, major main quest spoilers ahead! OK, I'm put in a completely disempowered position, I live for this kind of stuff! Carry the sacks of flour, bang out that horseshoe, bell keeps tolling, a reminder to get my ass moving. Horseshoe boy has lockpicks, wants money, I don't have any! Tells me about rosary won by Father Nicodemus at dice. Great, I'm good at dice! Approach the good father, turns out I need money to play, fuck! I end convo, crouch down to pickpocket, he notices, starts running towards guards, I attack him and beat the shit out of him lol. He surrenders, I threaten him to not say a thing, he agrees. I engage in conversation with him again immediately, he talks to me like nothing happened at all (this is where we see how much further Warhorse needs to go with these sim elements). I still need money to play of course, no problem, I approach him from behind, choke him out, hide the body in his room nearby and steal the rosary!

I go back and trade rosary for a couple of lockpics. Find an external door seemingly leading towards Thomas, Medium level lockpick, I haven't done any lockpicking so that won't work. Explore more, get indoors, I'm now trespassing, sneaking around toward my goal. Guard blocking staircase, I completely forgot about throwing rocks so I decide to try engage in fisticuffs, doesn't go well, I run away, my sprint perk allowing me to escape and eventually circle back, I've made it up to Thomas! Elation! Euphoria! Wait, you now want me to go all the way to the other side of the castle to find a cure!? Oh ffs! 😂 OK, let's do this.

I stole an apple earlier just because. Guard at another staircase, he's hungry! Give him an apple, he turns away allowing me to sneak past. Get to the top of the tower, another guard, I now remember throwing rock distraction, yes! Enter room and it's River Girl! Oh man, this is so good. Fun Convo, read book, lockpick very easy chest for ingredients, brew potion, not perfect but it's showing the quest advancing so all good. Exit this tower, don't know if it's a bug but some guard wants to stop me for trespassing, cue wild goose chase down the street back towards Thomas, multiple guards join, I escape, make it back to the chapel, phew!


Yeah, this game is a certified classic, can't wait to see where else it takes me, been quite a ride thus far!

This an issue with the game that they should fix imo. If you do a sidequest for someone and you earn their trust, they should be programmed to not go agro towards the player of they sleep in their bed. Its a bit silly

It's also funny how shopkeepers call you a friend but suddenly has a temper tantrum if you browse and don't buy. Reminds me of tourist trap shops in Turkey and Egypt.

A don’t now about that. If you went to the shop for me a few times and I invited you in and you vanished and I found you in my bed a would be a bit pissed 😂

If I knew you were capable of murdering me I would go grab the guards (police)

So pretty realistic just not what us gamers are used to in games.

I only reached that point yesterday evening so we were talking about different things.

Why would you want pebbles back when he is the shittiest horse?

Cause some people here already explained...Pepples isnt the shittiest horse...in fact she becomes the best one.
I really only care for loot capacity and i doubt she get better stats than those huge mule horses...

Unrelated, i thought lockpicking with the controller was trash but holy cow smithing an horse shoe was harder than any 5vs1 fight, holy shit i was about to throw the controller against the wall :lollipop_grinning_sweat:

Never again.

Only sleep in beds that say "sleep and save", if it only say sleep, it's illegal.

I solved the quest in a completely diffferent way, i'm curious to know how many way there are to complete it.

Btw i had the same gay hat at the wedding, but the green version one :lollipop_grinning_sweat:

So good. Seems there's a ton of ways to approach this quest as some of what you described is plenty different than the route I experienced and different again vs other accounts I've read about just now with bizarre solutions like selling your own shoes to gain a few coin, lol.

Move sacks. Cock-block lazyboy. Go work gallows, sharpen axe, not getting anywhere even though dialogue suggests exploiting the wooden framework might have promise of getting Hans off on a technicality. Hear a tale about a well that allows access beneath the buildings, but will have to jump down as climbing pegs are gone thanks to the last guy trying to get is end away but being caught. Go seek work elsewhere.

Get job making horseshoe giving access to blacksmith area, while there kitchen woman comes looking for blacksmith who apparently regularly picks here dodgy lock. I get the gig and after some faff locate red jar for pick, follow her and have my first ever lock pick success (hate that minigame, lol). Gain access to this area, offer of food if I want it but wander off down to find Hans and the tunnels that would have come from the well route. Have to hide out a bit because someone is in tow - maybe your hungry guard and I fucked up not getting that food first. Talk to Hans, some guard-distracting antics and back upstairs to diagnose old grumpy shit-flinger's stomach ulcer. Bell ringing builds urgency and piles on the pressure - not usually a fan of a ticking clock but it's probably not too harsh in reality and does help create the a suitably tense atmosphere.

More access gained but not as far as to go pray to the stomach-acid angles, just to go make a remedy. Go up, find buxom lake lady who again does the I don't know her routine and leaves. Lockpick box for herbs. Book on shelf has stomach brew recipe but also one for fever so make both in hope of getting to Captain soon. All this reading and brewing taking up time with the bells ringing.

Return to dispense stomach brew and as he's off to lie down he gives wider access to roam. No idea which way to turn, place is a maze. Maybe access not as wide as I thought because it seems I'm being chased. Finally find sick Captain and chat to sister. Low quality fever tonic does the job.

The quest itself is good but having to do it on a timer is shit.

What should I do, this game is fucking addictive. This is exactly why I love Single Player game. What an example.

I just achieved this look after the sweat, hunger, killing, getting beaten up, pillory and what not. The satisfaction is immense

GjchQ60XAAAVfy-
And some wandering scrote will still openly call dear Pebbles a nag! (I need to fast travel less and get her perk).

Brunswick armor is great...except this fckn helmet....imho it makes Henry looking like a clown. 🤷‍♂️ I put that thing off and away forever.

And also the dress for the horse made Pepples capacity reducing quite heavily....off it went as well! 🤷‍♂️

Yep the torso armour looks great but the helmet is ooff.. and if you've used it then you'd know that it gives excellent head protection, almost no damage but it takes away our stamina regen by huge so I feel it's great at 1v1 but not as good if there are more enemies.

Pebbles looks like a horse of an executioner, it also gives high inventory capacity (atleast better than the ones I had that moment) I don't usually go galloping everywhere I love the sceneries of this game so I sit back and have some snacks while my pebbles take me somewhere.

54 hours in and I am just now about to get clothes for the wedding. I guess I should move the story along huh? I have 87 of the games perks. I am only lacking 2 of the games sword perks. Hopefully I am not this games version of being overlevelled. I'm just having so much fun with the games systems and side quests. Man, if not for that Master Strike, I'd be having a ROUGH time with the combat. Fortunately it's one of the first things I decided to get.
