What should you know before starting Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2?

*Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* is a sprawling RPG with intricate systems that breathe life into its world. For those new to the genre or the series, mastering these mechanics can be daunting. But fear not, we're here to guide you through it all, starting with the game's unique save system.

Savior Schnapps

The game auto-saves during key story moments, when you sleep in your bed, or when you quit. To save at any time, you'll need Savior Schnapps—an alcoholic drink that can be hard to find. Merchants sometimes sell it, so keep an eye out and buy it when you can. Alternatively, brew it yourself using alchemy. Remember, it contains alcohol, so if Henry's already tipsy, saving with Schnapps could push him to a critical level of intoxication.

Find Mutt

Mutt, the loyal dog, is a valuable ally in combat, investigations, and can even boost your stats with specific skill upgrades. When you get the chance to find him through a quest, don't hesitate—grab the opportunity to have him by your side.

Bargain

Never settle for the first price when trading. Negotiate to get better deals on buying and selling. Groschen can be scarce at the beginning, so every coin counts.

Learn from Teachers

If you're keen on mastering swordplay, head to the Gypsy Camp where you'll find an expert instructor. Don't shy away from spending Groschen on skill training; it's an investment in your character's abilities.

Drying and Smoking

Food is essential in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, but it can spoil. Use smokehouses to preserve meat and drying cabinets for other foods. Herbs and mushrooms for potions also degrade but last longer when dried.

Personal Chest

In rented tavern rooms or other sleeping spots, you'll find a personal chest. Items stored here are synchronized across all your chests, making it an ideal place to stash heavy or unnecessary items. Stolen goods stored in a personal chest will lose their stolen status after 3 to 12 days, depending on their value.

Appearance Matters

Your appearance is crucial in this RPG. A dirty or poorly dressed Henry will be treated poorly. Use basins or bathhouses to clean up, and wash your clothes with soap at designated spots. Repair or buy new clothes with good stats to influence how others perceive you. Dress appropriately for different situations—switch outfits using the preset option in your inventory.

Monitor Your Stamina

Stamina is vital in combat. When your screen grays out from exhaustion, retreat and recover. Without stamina, you can't block attacks, and taking hits reduces your maximum stamina. Avoid overeating to maintain peak stamina levels.

Alchemy and Blacksmithing

Mastering alchemy lets you craft essential potions like Savior Schnapps. Gathering herbs also boosts Henry's Strength. As a blacksmith, you can forge weapons and horseshoes. Keep your weapons sharp to prevent degradation. Crafting the best items and selling them can earn you extra Groschen.

Side Quests

Don't miss out on the rich side quests scattered throughout the game world. They're as engaging as the main storyline, and some become unavailable after certain story events. Completing them can unlock unique rewards and enrich your adventure.
