Very enjoyable, but sometimes flawed

KCD is a great game with unique elements, engrossing story, well designed characters, and a really cool historical setting. The game really shines at certain moments, but at the same time, falls flat at many others and is not without flaws.

IMO, the story, dialogue, and characters are the most interesting part of the game. They did a great job of making Henry a likable character and adding other characters that are easy to associate with. A few of them, in particular, really help bring the story alive. I'd venture that one of the characters you encounter mid game (a priest) is one of the more entertaining "serious" characters I've ever encountered in a video game. The game is full of these moments.

The environment is also gorgeous and well designed. It's important to remember it is still a video game, so some realism sacrifices had to be made, but the environment is put together about as well as one could expect a historical setting to be. Things move on without you and some of the small details in the game world, like how characters go throughout their daily routine or react to changes around them, are really interesting to watch.

The other aspects of it are hit or miss. Some like them, some don't. I found the gameplay mechanics like combat enjoyable. Henry starts off weak and so do you, as the player. You have to learn the techniques just as Henry does. It's not gonna be something that comes with just leveling up and adding perks.

All that said, the game has flaws. Despite some character interactions being some of the most believable I've seen in a video game, they end abruptly (one love interest is a good example) and in a very immersion breaking manner. Many have also had issues with bugs and some quests are broken, although they are working on them and I haven't had many issues personally. The same system was also a questionable design choice.

Overall, KCD is a really enjoyable game, but you will have to look past it's flaws, which I found easy to do.
