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.
The video highlights substantial graphical improvements by Warhorse Studios. Animation and physics show marked enhancements. While improved shaders and textures elevate image quality, the most striking changes are in character animation and environmental interaction.
Lighting and dynamic weather effects are particularly impressive, clearly demonstrated around the two-minute mark. Furthermore, the video (at approximately seven minutes) showcases a refined horse control system. NPC reactions to player actions are also more realistic, as seen around the five-minute mark.
In conclusion, while not a complete visual overhaul, the enhanced graphics, increased realism, and refined physics promise a significantly richer and more engaging gameplay experience.
