Alright, let’s dive into this. So, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2—if you’ve played it, you know it’s like historical RPG heaven. Anyway, they’re dropping this new DLC, Legacy of the Forge, sometime in Q3 2025. The excitement? Players get to rebuild this legendary forge, and it’s got Martin, Henry’s adoptive dad, smack dab in the center of the story. Haven’t they let us peek under the hood yet? Nope, but I’m guessing it might echo that From the Ashes DLC vibe. Remember that one? Where building up your own village was the name of the game. Still, this one could crank things up even more.
Now, here’s the thing—Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 kinda leaves us hanging after the main story, right? Sure, you can wander around medieval Bohemia, mop up side quests, or hoard whatever loot’s left, becoming filthy rich. But where’s the endgame, folks? It’s like eating a great meal with no dessert. You follow? So here comes Legacy of the Forge, maybe swooping in to fix that gap with some juicy post-game stuff.
Moving on. Let’s talk story. Only scraps of info so far, but it sounds like some deep, soul-searching journey for Henry, digging into Martin’s past. The emotional rollercoaster kinda thing. Hopefully, they give it the heart it deserves. But—how do they keep us hooked? Need the gameplay to stick too, right? It’s all about those systems. They can’t just tuck ‘em away during story time and forget about them later. Nope. Integrate them, make them last.
Speaking of potential—imagine taking full reins of this forge, turning into a legit medieval tycoon. A real empire-building scenario. You get the forge running, maybe attract some fancy noble clients. Build your rep, hire some apprentices. Make money while you nap—sounds like a plan, huh?
And here’s the kicker: the DLC is tagged as “ForgeTycoon” in the game’s files. Yeah, not pulling this out of thin air. They better keep that mechanic rolling beyond the storyline though. Otherwise, it all feels meh. KCD2 could really use this solid endgame loop to spice things up and shake the status quo.
So yeah, I’m all in on seeing where they take it. No pressure, Warhorse, but this could be massive.
