I think this game has sold so well because it fits very well into the current "manliness" fashion, or "how to be a manly knight", so to say.

The highest difficulty setting has a lot of really annoying things, like no fast travel and not showing your location on the map, and the default save system fits in well with them. The kind of person who likes to ride 20+ times between the same towns would have no problem spending 5 minutes to brew a bunch of potions just so they can save their game! It just feels like cheating if you opt for the hardest difficult and then mod it to make it easier - but I guess it is very subjective. I think Warhorse did make a big mistake making such a frustrating save system on the difficulty level that most people would play on.
The regular difficulty is far more accessible apart from the save system. I did try the hardest setting but I just found it less fun.
They needed to throw in a "P.S. Yes we are still alive" at the end. KC came out four years ago! Cough up another game already!!
Well based on some rumors and sleuthing of the internet they are working on a new game. They just haven't officially announced it but it sounds like Kingdom Come 2.Despite being four years old, their Steam page is still getting frequent updates. That's rare.
I wish they had more news concerning KCD2, however.

Weren't they planning a trilogy originally, to fully finalize Henry's arc? I seem to vaguely remember them saying that when they decided to limit the scope of the game - I guess that means it was supposed to be bigger at first?
Anyway, was playing this but lost steam due to RL. Hopefully I'll be able to get back to it soonish.
Their original plan was to split the game into three parts, with new areas being unlocked like an expansion. But this was before they knew whether they'd find a publisher or how the Kickstarter would do.
I played part of the game awhile back and was rather enjoying it. I've found in recent years that first person games make me nauseous so I put it aside. I should probably experiment with different graphics settings to see if that helps.

There's more info but like I said nothing official yet. Though given past interviews claim they will continue Henri's story as the ending is basically his rise to power.If that's all the rumor there is, it could be anything.
I loved archery it was great because the the controls didn't sux and i have noe problem playing without reticle did it all the time back in action quake. The fact that something is hard got nothing to do with the whole thing.Combat is tough. Both archery and melee but I would say archery is even more difficult.
M&B is fairly simplistic fun, not too far from Skyrim. KCD combats are much more challenging where you have to deal with quick attack, long attack, attack direction and combo. Add to this that you start as fairly weak. You are the son of a smith who got very little training as a kid so even fighting street thugs can be pretty challenging (not to mention those cuman soldiers you meet early in the game, but you aren't supposed to fight them!).
So yes, combat can be pretty challenging and even frustrating, when you begin. But if you persevere, spend some time with the trainer, it can get really fun and rewarding.
