Dude he also lied about "there is no Forced Diversity" cause on X one of the investors that told warhorse to “make the game more gay to speak to a younger audience”😂🤦♂️💀
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is home to 23-27 million people, about 5x the population of the Czech Republic, or about as populous as Australia. Only a few hundred thousand people in Saudi Arabia would have bought copies of it, if it has full Arabic subtitles. It's Wahhabi Islam, and there's nothing we infidels can do about it.
YT doesn't allow links to discord. On the official KCD2 discord in meme channel there is a deflated cow named KCD2 and a farmer coming to milk it named endymiontv. I wonder why. If no explanation here, I'll ask on KCD2 steam forum tomorrow. About Saudi ban, well, sorry but harems and polygamy were not alowed in middleages europe.
@ exactly. Its my money. If I don't want to buy a bait and switch game thats my business. Straight all through KCD1 and now gay in KCD2? Give me a break. U not getting a cent from me Vavra
Yeah same. The developers are lying or hiding about something in this game. When they try to slam rev and hiding about something I knew something is up.
Just because it's not being "forced" on you when it comes to choices in games, it's still being forced. In this case, you're talking about an established character that is now being changed. Views previously expressed by people behind the game are being changed. This is forced
@Adam-sd2ow Yeah, it's box ticking. They got bought out by big money, and now they're forced to put in "diversity" and "inclusion" in a game that's centered around a medieval, very Christian, time. Unless we are all wrong and the game is still "based," where we can punish the degeneracy and whatnot in the game. But, I hardly doubt that's the case
@@Holentyr well it retcon Henry clearly being a man that goes for the wenches and never men in the first game. So yea it’s because it’s changing the history from the first one.
They sold out to Embracer Group, which is neckdeep into ESG. Now Daniel has to go around and sell the lie that Henry magicly turned BI and that the Christian game isn't Christian anymore... 🤣
Think about this: 3 big games will be released in February (they would have been 4 with AC Shadows): KC2, Avowed and Monster Hunter. And only 1 isn't surrounded by controversies and guess what? It's an Eastern game.

@@Kuhtlasstrue and im not a fan of it but i played the wilds beta and the character creator is genuinely good. You can make genuinely good looking characters. What i have seen from the armors also looked promising. Def more promising than kc2 and avowed
Hypnotic, you're wrong there. This is not about the "gay option" in an RPG. It's about retconning a character THEY said was straight and how they dealt with the situation. Most RPGs let you create the character as a blank slate. That wasn't the case here. They changed Henry just for DEI, not for players choice.
@FordHoard why would you say "different game" when he was obviously referring to the first game. Technically it's a "different game" but why would you phrase it in such a weasely, dishonest way?
Me before: it must be sabotage, there is no way that Vávra would start culture war, mock dragon age veilguard and was in past same situation, he wouldt not do it. Today: YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE! It was said that you would destroy the Woke not join them!!
The problem is that we went from "Henry is not you, Henry is a straight catholic czech guy" to "you can be gay if you want". This is not a Shepard or a Dragonborn that you create as you prefer and can go either way. How would anyone feel if suddenly Geralt or Mario or Clark Kent or any other well defined character suddenly go gay?
Well henry doesn’t have multiple books, games and a series centered around him spread out over 30 years to build geralts character, but if you care so much about lore accuracy why isn’t anyone complaining this hard about video game geralt being different from book geralt, cause book is supposed to gave dark eyes, only cat-like when he drank certain potions, pasty white and thin and not the buff and handsome mfer we got in the games, geralt is supposed to kill all monsters without exceptions but the game allows you to let monsters live, book geralt is only interested in yennefer but game geralt is caught up in a love triangle with yennefer and triss, book geralt isn’t interested in politics and peoples business but game geralt is, and book geralt is dead but is still alive in the games… And apparently if making henry gay in the second game ruins his lore than his lore was already ruined before the first game ever game out, the devs said he’s a straight, white, christian male who’s the son of a blacksmith when henry isn’t even the son of a blacksmith, but is the son of a nobleman that was raised by a blacksmith, those are two different things, and henry isn’t christian cause he can do very unchristian things and sure henry is in the process of courting bianca but they never seal the deal since you can finish the game as a virgin and be asexual, so not even his sexuality is cemented since you deny lady stephanie, theresa, the tavern chick and bathhouse wenches, but no one seems to be complaining about that only about a gay option and a black dude, sounds a lot like racist homophobia to me and not like ya’ll actually care about keeping characters lore accurate, seems like the only thing cemented about henry is the fact thats he’s a white dude in the process of courting some chick that he doesn’t even seem that interested in in the first place, now that i look back on it

What "nonsense" is this "all about" exactly? You mean everything that was confirmed day after day after day, as well as additional insults from Vavra himself and the various grifters that defended him and Warhorse by calling us all extremists and puritans? That "nonsense"? Would be really embarrassing to be one of those people after everything that was intuitively noticed was confirmed over and over again.
And people like you defended it, we all know companies will try to hide the DEI and they did and we called it out, but you and others still defended it, saying its an "RPG"
They game could’ve been received better if the dev didn’t say any and just let the game speak for itself. This is an Embracer group game so I am not surprised. Embracer group loves Dei.
What I find funny how it takes seconds to take our money, but up to 60 days to return it back, so for two months they can use our money, make profit with it and then return it, like a 0% loan basically.
This is true. But I had this problem with something I bought from Best Buy and as horrible as they are, when I called and they told me that crap I told them "Yes, but when I purchased this you took my money within SECONDS, you can't refund it NOW?" I had my money by the next morning. That's a very SHORT version of the story of course. In general, I give them 3 days, then I file a chargeback which cost them more money. F 'em.
Its not only the two known issues that Im worried now. It is all the other more subtle but certain ways that the entire storyline will be tainted. It is obvious that we are not yet aware of the entire story and additions in kcd2
Especially since the guy grandstanded and said "I don't want to spoil the story of the game" and meanwhile people are digging up dirt left and right with woke cultural appropriation steamrolling all over historical events for a brief spurt of inclusive piety.
I cancelled my pre-order and I've been waiting for this game for a while. I've been streaming KCD 1 on my page because it is an amazing game. I'm really disappointed in the lore change on Henry and their reaction. It's clear they were forced by the investor over lords and I won't give those people a dime.
I don't even wanna know how many people will just... ahem... "download" it instead of buying. After all, complainers are worthless anyway, so they probably don't mind if they don't get money from those people

@KazaiTV I've seen what's happening there, the far left defend everyone but Germans and bury their heads in the sand when issues with mass immigration and Islamic extremism are raised.
Funny part is the ban in Saudi Arabia is what exposed the wokeness in this game. What a liar. I cant believe I almost feel for it if it wasn't for this channel.
Lemme tell you something: as a veteran that has been in the middle-east, that fact that the KINGDOM of Saudi Arabia has banned this game, only makes me want it more. I mean, I can't say what I want to say about these... well... it just seems kind of odd that they would be opposed to... well, maybe, the males (in this game) aren't not young enough for their particular proclivities?
Wokehorse, where there's a wiff of DEI there's a giant burning pile of it the company is trying to cover up. Funny, just a week ago "based" Grummz and other youtubers were screaming "IT'S NOT BANNED!!! IT'S NOT WOKE!!! YOU GUYS ARE FREAKING OUT OVER NOTHING!!! IT'S THE CONTEXT AND PLAYER CHOICE THAT MATTERS!!!"
It's been confirmed that the ban in SA is real. It's been confirmed there's gay scenes. What hasn't been confirmed is the "unskippable" part. What do they mean by that? I guess we'll know soon enough.
The fact that so many people are still pre ordering this game unfortunately shows that most gamers are willing to accept wokeness as long as it's not forced. And yes, it has wokeness. An investor of theirs confirmed he insisted on the gay romance option to "ApPeAl To A MoDeRn AuDiEnCe". There should be zero tolerance for this stuff.
The many of the buyers of its copies are just uninterested in those First-World discourses, when the real discourses about it are the gameplay, the stability, the smoothness of movement, the NPC AI, the Deus Ex-tier choices, the user experience... inb4 Warhorse Studio pulls a Game Science into making you talk about only the game itself and everything in it, and not off-topic clutter.
Gamers from America and all countries should have the power to ban what they don't like, just like Saudi Arabia! Why do only the Saudi Arabians have the power to ban homosexual games?
Funniest part: it's there for you to like the game more. Representation of your faith is there to get you interested in the game. It's not for historical accuracy or because belief systems were really well mixed in that part of the world at that time.
@@wonderloaf you sweet summer's child. Christianity and islam are polar opposites, with islam constantly contradicting itself and the Bible. A follower of possessed child rapist muhammed is not a brother to Christians.
They got bought out by Embracer Group after releasing the first game. Embracer is extremly Woke, they are neckdeep into ESG. Warhorse now has to listen to their owners, as a result Daniel now has to lie through his teeth even claiming that it isn't a Christian game...
1) Never, ever, pre-order, 2) only buy 'early-access' if you're willing to lose all the money (looking at you, KSP 2 - but also some complete no-functional-product scams), 3) never buy anything from activision blizzard, electronic arts, sony, square enix, or ubisoft, 4) wait at least 2 years after a game is launched, then only buy on sale and if the gamer customer reviews are at least 'overwhelmingly popular'.
For me the problem with KCD 2 and Warhorse is, that Henry was straight in KCD 1 and I don't like when someone is fumbling with established characters and the communication from Warhorse wasn't honest from the start as it should have been.
This stuff is always forced, it doesn't matter that you have the choice to ignore it in an rpg. You can not ignore it, it is there and it should not be there. I see massive cope and cognitive dissonance here.
Oh well, we'll always have the original at least. Shame that KCD 2 has been infected. Something also tells me the raunchy humor and shocking scenes of violence which was prevalent in the first game will be extremely watered down now anyways.
Because Valve Inc is American, and there are too many of those M-rated video games that already have those societal pariah characters before the KCD series, before the Mass Effect series, etc.
Side tangent, this ban is why I'll always be a proponent of DRM-free and physical copies of games. In an all digital world, you don't have control over your collection.
A financer wanted gay stuff in for younger audiences (check his hard drives) and for more fun (will never make the same decision for a gay muslim game) so we ended up with an almost perfectly acceptable game. Darn.....
The first one had its moments, the lore, the environment, the graphics, and the story. But the first person combat wasn’t enjoyable enough for me. With that said, I was going to preorder the sequel to support the game and devs. I’m thankful I didn’t.
I am glad, at least, now we can be honest the first game was a boring survival game with a good story. Not one mechanic in KCD was fun. Strip the entire walk 50 feat and be covered in mud and needing 9000 calories a day to maintain mid energy and they should have focused on combat. The game would have been funner without the boring survival elements which are just keeping numbers up. Spreadsheet game.
As I said multiple times before not the gay romance is woke it's the fact that Henry got a fundamental retcon of his worldview and sexuality to allow this romance. Second thing that is clearly woke is a black dude that could never be a medic and could never be in europe and could never be in Sigismund army at this time! This guy is anti history in a game that claims to be historical accurate and is based on historical events with historical people from that time that had been part of this events.... I don't care if the rest is good this is exactly what I will no longer tolerate! I am sick of woke propaganda and this is woke propaganda even if it's just 1% of the game...
Hopefully the stamina meter won't count as your "armor meter" in this one. Taking damage from a falchion while wearing full plate, mail and padded armor just because my stamina is gone, is just about THE most unrealistic thing about the first game.
Sadly I think gta 6 will most likely be woke. With them saying they won't do offensive jokes on "minority" groups. Having DEI practices, and the main leads of rockstar leaving after RDR2.
@@サイバー狼 Unfortunately due to people's loyalty to logos as they left mommy and daddy's beliefs behind, GTA will likely still make a billion dollars. Self control or deferred rewards are not a virtue anymore. Look at Vavra, he needed the Bentley now rather than build up and run his own studio controlling his own products. Sold out and he has to take the heat, as people who "invest" which is another term for owning you require you to take the heat for the product while they take the profits. Vavs could have been a legend, now just another sell out.

2:39 I never held an anti gay sentiment either but I cannot trust companies to write a well flushed out gay character without shoving LGBT propaganda down our throats anymore
I do care, gays are like 1% of the modern world. They would be much less of a population in highly religious medieval Europe, and they certainly wouldn't advertise it. I'm not buying any game that has woke DEI content, even if it's only optional. These studio's will learn the hard way not to pander to the modern audience at the expense of normal gamers.
I'm pretty sure this company had one of the most rabidly loyal fan bases in gaming after the first game, but they managed to piss all that away over the course of a month. Not buying this crap.

Well, the UK is a muslim country now so it's understandable. I speak from experience i live in Germany...
I wish Kier Starmer was banned in the UK.
@KazaiTV I've seen what's happening there, the far left defend everyone but Germans and bury their heads in the sand when issues with mass immigration and Islamic extremism are raised.
@KazaiTVat least they aren't speaking hecking German! And after years of merkel soon neither will germans
Funny part is the ban in Saudi Arabia is what exposed the wokeness in this game. What a liar. I cant believe I almost feel for it if it wasn't for this channel.
A good way to tell what might be a bad buy.
@@I8one2ManyQuite right, gonna be using Saudi banning games as a red flag detector
You need to remember that no one is at good at lying as activist are, right Kingdom Come Deliverance... Right?
Kingdom come Kingdom goes.
Lemme tell you something: as a veteran that has been in the middle-east, that fact that the KINGDOM of Saudi Arabia has banned this game, only makes me want it more. I mean, I can't say what I want to say about these... well... it just seems kind of odd that they would be opposed to... well, maybe, the males (in this game) aren't not young enough for their particular proclivities?
Wokehorse, where there's a wiff of DEI there's a giant burning pile of it the company is trying to cover up.
Funny, just a week ago "based" Grummz and other youtubers were screaming "IT'S NOT BANNED!!! IT'S NOT WOKE!!! YOU GUYS ARE FREAKING OUT OVER NOTHING!!! IT'S THE CONTEXT AND PLAYER CHOICE THAT MATTERS!!!"
It's been confirmed that the ban in SA is real. It's been confirmed there's gay scenes. What hasn't been confirmed is the "unskippable" part. What do they mean by that? I guess we'll know soon enough.
there goes some more lost pre orders...
Not mine
KCD2 is taking a knee. Not the left knee, but a sport's knee.
Yea no buy for me. Sad I bragged to my wife it was another DEI Free game. But nope they folded
Game is woke and blackwashing European history pure propaganda.
The fact that so many people are still pre ordering this game unfortunately shows that most gamers are willing to accept wokeness as long as it's not forced. And yes, it has wokeness. An investor of theirs confirmed he insisted on the gay romance option to "ApPeAl To A MoDeRn AuDiEnCe". There should be zero tolerance for this stuff.
The many of the buyers of its copies are just uninterested in those First-World discourses, when the real discourses about it are the gameplay, the stability, the smoothness of movement, the NPC AI, the Deus Ex-tier choices, the user experience...
inb4 Warhorse Studio pulls a Game Science into making you talk about only the game itself and everything in it, and not off-topic clutter.
Gamers from America and all countries should have the power to ban what they don't like, just like Saudi Arabia! Why do only the Saudi Arabians have the power to ban homosexual games?
As Muslim it is really hurts that director using my religion to muck and humiliate Christian people on his game. "My religion is better than yours."
We are all brothers and sisters, no matter our religion :)
@@wonderloaf We are not, according to religion.
Funniest part: it's there for you to like the game more. Representation of your faith is there to get you interested in the game. It's not for historical accuracy or because belief systems were really well mixed in that part of the world at that time.
Why do you use internet when your religion is stuck in medieval age, people should enforce mediaval laws on your brothers
@@wonderloaf you sweet summer's child. Christianity and islam are polar opposites, with islam constantly contradicting itself and the Bible. A follower of possessed child rapist muhammed is not a brother to Christians.
This game's alleged wokeness is its least flaw. The combat looks like I wouldn't be needing sleeping pills anymore.
You should've seen Endymions video on it. Apparently there is DEI and they were forced to put DEI in the game or some form of something like that
They got bought out by Embracer Group after releasing the first game. Embracer is extremly Woke, they are neckdeep into ESG.
Warhorse now has to listen to their owners, as a result Daniel now has to lie through his teeth even claiming that it isn't a Christian game...
@KazaiTV I'll be p*ssed if they make Amicia an atheist, lesbian, warrior woman in Plague Tale 3.
dude is copoing hard shilled for it what a canadian cuck
@@Adam-sd2ow 3rd part will be in modern day, no more Amicia
I've never really cared in games like the Mass effect games and Dragon Age games but now I can't stand even if there is a whiff of it in entertainment
1) Never, ever, pre-order, 2) only buy 'early-access' if you're willing to lose all the money (looking at you, KSP 2 - but also some complete no-functional-product scams), 3) never buy anything from activision blizzard, electronic arts, sony, square enix, or ubisoft, 4) wait at least 2 years after a game is launched, then only buy on sale and if the gamer customer reviews are at least 'overwhelmingly popular'.
For me the problem with KCD 2 and Warhorse is, that Henry was straight in KCD 1 and I don't like when someone is fumbling with established characters and the communication from Warhorse wasn't honest from the start as it should have been.
Kingdom Come, Kingdom Go.. Only gamers will bring deliverance
Well deserved
Liar Liar Jason Schreier
Hope Quatar, UEA, and other's follow suits.
That's too bad 😂
This stuff is always forced, it doesn't matter that you have the choice to ignore it in an rpg. You can not ignore it, it is there and it should not be there. I see massive cope and cognitive dissonance here.
Well well well....looky like the initial report was correct.
Enjoying Ninja Gaiden 2 Black and can't wait until Wuchang and Phantom Blade Zero.
- it’s not happening
- it might be happening
- it’s happening but it’s not a big deal
- it’s happening and it’s actually a good thing
Vavra is a smol hat. He couldn't help himself. It's in his genes.
Oh well, we'll always have the original at least. Shame that KCD 2 has been infected. Something also tells me the raunchy humor and shocking scenes of violence which was prevalent in the first game will be extremely watered down now anyways.
I never defended him or believed him.
Not biying it, they've been too dodgy for my taste.
I am honestly surprised Valve has not banned it on Steam as well. Valve will not want to get in legal trouble over the game in Saudi Arabia.
Because Valve Inc is American, and there are too many of those M-rated video games that already have those societal pariah characters before the KCD series, before the Mass Effect series, etc.
Im not buying it. The devs are acting shifty and shady. Hard pass.
All they had to do was be honest. A little transparency to prove us right. They tried to be mysterious, and now everyone knows to avoid them.
It's sad. KCD1 was based. They might as well change the name to Kingdom Kangz Rearguard.
Well, the rearguard is not very strong in this one. 😂
Banned in Saudi Arabia and also from my Steam Library.
Side tangent, this ban is why I'll always be a proponent of DRM-free and physical copies of games. In an all digital world, you don't have control over your collection.
Nelson to Daniel Vavra: Haw! Haw!
A financer wanted gay stuff in for younger audiences (check his hard drives) and for more fun (will never make the same decision for a gay muslim game) so we ended up with an almost perfectly acceptable game. Darn.....
And everyone buying KCD II supports them and says, "great job warhorse, we support you"!
Looks like people owe an apology to John Trent
The first one had its moments, the lore, the environment, the graphics, and the story. But the first person combat wasn’t enjoyable enough for me. With that said, I was going to preorder the sequel to support the game and devs. I’m thankful I didn’t.
I am glad, at least, now we can be honest the first game was a boring survival game with a good story.
Not one mechanic in KCD was fun. Strip the entire walk 50 feat and be covered in mud and needing 9000 calories a day to maintain mid energy and they should have focused on combat.
The game would have been funner without the boring survival elements which are just keeping numbers up. Spreadsheet game.
@ I actually disliked the combat more than anything. If it was a 3rd person game I would have liked it more. But I get your point.
Old grifty mc-grift he wrote the book on grifting 😅
Based Saudi Arabia.
As I said multiple times before not the gay romance is woke it's the fact that Henry got a fundamental retcon of his worldview and sexuality to allow this romance.
Second thing that is clearly woke is a black dude that could never be a medic and could never be in europe and could never be in Sigismund army at this time! This guy is anti history in a game that claims to be historical accurate and is based on historical events with historical people from that time that had been part of this events.... I don't care if the rest is good this is exactly what I will no longer tolerate! I am sick of woke propaganda and this is woke propaganda even if it's just 1% of the game...
Hopefully the stamina meter won't count as your "armor meter" in this one. Taking damage from a falchion while wearing full plate, mail and padded armor just because my stamina is gone, is just about THE most unrealistic thing about the first game.
For context GTA V is also banned in Saudi Arabia.
Sadly I think gta 6 will most likely be woke. With them saying they won't do offensive jokes on "minority" groups. Having DEI practices, and the main leads of rockstar leaving after RDR2.
@@サイバー狼 Unfortunately due to people's loyalty to logos as they left mommy and daddy's beliefs behind, GTA will likely still make a billion dollars.
Self control or deferred rewards are not a virtue anymore.
Look at Vavra, he needed the Bentley now rather than build up and run his own studio controlling his own products. Sold out and he has to take the heat, as people who "invest" which is another term for owning you require you to take the heat for the product while they take the profits. Vavs could have been a legend, now just another sell out.
Also, The Witcher 3 and Final Fantasy XVI are banned there. A very advanced country :)
Ah well my wallet has Banned this game from my Video Game library... you win Warhorse I won't be buying or playing your gay little game.
I saw only screenshots from Playstaion store about KCD2 not being accessible. Has anyone info about Xbox store or Steam from Saudi? Edit: corrected typo
P.S i bet you a nice crispy 2 bucks and .49 cents that the bi scene takes place past the 2 hour refund time on Steam 😂 and it wont even slightly hint at the possibility of it till past that 2 hour marker
Based Saudi Arabia
This looks so bad that i'd rather believe it is just a rumor. Seriously, this game shouldn't have been in such state in the first place.
It got removed from my steam library also .The game doesn’t seem to to be woke but I don’t really want to support the devs or their parent company
This is bad for Matt Hansen
So much for the most based developer out there.
If its banned there then it proves there was 🚬🐐🌳 after all
G⁎A⁎Y !!!!
KCD2 banned while GI isnt is going to be the funniest thing I heard before CNY tomorrow 😂
Based Saudi Arabia. Islam is right about women!
Ahhh we all still can play the game without giving them a single dollar, on PC at least.Just saying 😂
2:39 I never held an anti gay sentiment either but I cannot trust companies to write a well flushed out gay character without shoving LGBT propaganda down our throats anymore
Part 2: Electric Boogaloo
I do care, gays are like 1% of the modern world. They would be much less of a population in highly religious medieval Europe, and they certainly wouldn't advertise it. I'm not buying any game that has woke DEI content, even if it's only optional. These studio's will learn the hard way not to pander to the modern audience at the expense of normal gamers.
I'm pretty sure this company had one of the most rabidly loyal fan bases in gaming after the first game, but they managed to piss all that away over the course of a month. Not buying this crap.
