Gamers have noted the visual similarities between Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 and its predecessor, released seven years prior. To showcase the advancements, blogger NikTek created a detailed video comparison.
This comparison reveals significant graphical improvements by Warhorse Studios. Animations and physics are noticeably enhanced. While improved shaders and textures elevate image quality, the most striking changes are in character animation and their interactions within the game world.
Lighting and dynamic weather effects stand out, particularly around the two-minute mark of the video. Furthermore, the seventh minute highlights improvements to horse controls. NPC reactions to player actions are also more refined, as demonstrated at the five-minute mark.
In conclusion, while not a radical visual overhaul, the enhanced graphics, realism, and refined physics suggest a richer and more engaging gameplay experience.
