Kingdom Come: Deliverance - Preview @ OnlySP

A new preview was released on OnlySP for Kingdom Come: Deliverance.

So why the Bohemian (Hussite) wars time period? Mafia and Mafia II designer and Warhorse co-founder Daniel Vávra had been searching through interesting periods of Czech history when he came across the Bohemian (Hussite) Wars. “We all learn about it at school, but you don’t pay too much attention when you are young,” Rydl explained. Rediscovering the political intrigue of the period inspired the team to create a game set around the bloody civil war. Czech films and literature are also attributed as inspirations in developing the game.

Henry’s story reflects the stories of the people during these wars. The destruction of his home and death of his family in 1403 (the beginning of the game in the first act) is the catalyst for Henry’s quest for revenge against those responsible, but it is while he is on this quest that he uncovers a conspiracy to save a kidnapped king. It falls to him to choose whether or not to stop a bloody conflict with his knowledge. Rydl explained that “after playing all three parts you can understand the reasons why people wanted to change the way they lived, the way they pray or you find out who will be the king.” Each part can be played separately and still be enjoyed, and Rydl expects a full playthrough of all three parts to take 60-70 hours to complete.
