Kingdom Come Deliverance 2's upcoming update will finally satisfy players craving a more challenging experience. Warhorse Studios is introducing a hardcore mode, packed with selectable perks that inflict negative consequences on the protagonist, Henry. This significantly alters gameplay dynamics.
Several demanding perks are available, each introducing unique obstacles:
- Sore Back: Reduces Henry's carrying capacity and increases injury risk during herbal gathering.
- Heavy Footsteps: Accelerates shoe wear and makes Henry's movements noisier, hindering stealth.
- Dimwit: Reduces experience gain by 20% (yes, you read that right, 20%!).
- Sweaty: Causes Henry to become dirtier and smellier faster, affecting social interactions.
- Ugly Mug: Increases the chance of peaceful encounters escalating into brutal, no-holds-barred fights, as enemies will refuse to surrender.
These additions aim to create a more immersive and difficult playthrough for players seeking a truly grueling adventure in the Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 world.
