One of my favorite moments while playing KCD was when I was scouting out Pribyslavitz and I snuck aaaaaaaaall the way around to a shed near the Cuman's tent. I lockpicked a chest that had a set of Cuman armor in it and I thought "if I wear this, will they think I'm a Cuman and leave me to my business?" Turns out, YES! At a distance, no one cares, but if you get too close, they might approach you. Being a strength-based melee build, I had high intimidation, and when I was first stopped, I chose to "grunt" or something. AND HENRY JUST GROWLS AT THIS CUMAN SOLDIER WHO ASKED HIM SOMETHING IN (Hungarian?) AND THE CUMAN JUST BACKS OFF! Like, what was the question? I have to know, i feel like it's make it even funnier. Anyway, after burning a couple barrels of arrows, I ran out of bullshit excuses for persuasion, and they got suspicious. I immediately ran down into this water-filled basement/pit and picked them off on by one, without dying or alerting the rest of the camp! It was madness! I couldn't even escape the pit without moving bodies. After that, I Just crept into all the tent and shanked the Cumans in their sleep like the angel of death to make the battle easier for the men I'd be leading into battle, but now that I've beat the game, that was entirely irrelevant.

You know what, I thought that majority of the players went for this. Because surely they were all scared as I was and tried every possible way that didn’t involve violence at first! What a surprise.

I never really understood how is this costume supposed to work, if I am honest. I mean, I knew in theory, but I never truly succeeded. (I did play the game with like, all the bugs, so I wasn’t sure if that wasn’t at play.) Because I’ve tried it many times and I always got my ass kicked because they just figured me out immediately, no matter that I had only the Cuman armor and nothing else. I could stand or hide wherever, the distance didn’t matter, there was always someone who just went right at me. Even though I was in a tent, hidden. They just got up, went to me, and decided to ask me what the fuck am I doing there. So when they actually fell for the “growl” one, I just... couldn’t believe that they would let me get away with something like that after all that omnipotent bullshit they pulled on me.

Also, their responses are kind of funny every time you successfully interact with them (as in, they don’t murder you right there). In the case with the growl, the Cuman in question actually steps back with “whoa take it easy, it’s no big deal”. Henry’s growl is apparently convincing enough!

You sure went full hardore on them in the end. I think that in my first (murderous) playthrough, I tried to take them all down quietly, but my hardcore merciful run was a pain in the ass. I did a very embarrassing speedrun. I have no idea why I always went at night, I was terrified.

This one mission truly never failed to make me feel utterly lost and helpless, cursing Radzig for his stupid ideas. I admit that for this reason alone, it felt a little bit out of the way, because this mission just felt too much compared to the rest. That kind you can pull off in other games but not this one. There shouldn’t even be the possibility of Henry slaughtering the whole camp single handedly, I think, and the fact that we can actually do it, felt just strange to me. Of all the other missions which were believably fucked up or awkwardly successful (like - spoiler alert - not succeeding with the night stealth mission at Talmberg, or getting into the monastery while being squinted at hard). I would have maybe welcomed a message saying “you went against the whole camp of bandits and Cumans. you got slaughtered you idiot, what did you expect? try again” and I would think “fair enough”. :D

But I digress. Thank you for sharing!

Hello!!! Long shot, do you know of anyone who might know where to read the Death Among Us prequel comic???? There is barely any evidence of it existing so I thought I’d ask a veteran…you never know—thank you!

JESUS CHRIST BE PRAISED HENRY

I don't think I know anyone, or if there is a way to read it online, but I'd like for anyone who does know to reach out! Gather around, peasants!

The comic is so forgettable that it took me a while to remember. I bought it a while back (in Czech language), and I have to say the experience was not great for me. :D

Disregard my last, I just broke into the monastery at night, shanked Novice Lucas, met up with the recruiters, and then had to kill them. Found their special dice and now I'm on my way.

Poor Lucas!

I must say, I get the feelings when it comes to the famous “Monastery Quest”. I’ve tried to enjoy it every time I went through it, but never quite succeeded to keep the positive attitude to the very end. (Bugs helped with that.)

I think the fastest way to finish the quest before it even comes up (and avoid it altogether), is the way you took in the end. Sneak into the monastery and kill whoever you need to kill. Either find who Pious is (which is not my boy Lucas!) or kill every novice.

(I think that trying to steal from Pious doesn’t work, he really has to be dead for you to loot the dice from him.)

Or, for those who want to at least try, another option is going in (as a novice) and immediately admit to novice Antonius (your guide) who are you looking for - another fast way that actually involves the whole quest, just takes a major shortcut.

I must admit I was tempted to use this the second time around. Alas, it was a hardcore mode with the “merciful” achievement in mind, therefore - no killing. (One of the hardest things I’ve ever done.) The quest took on forever.

Your way certainly worked! That’s one of the things I truly love about the game - the many possibilites it is prepared to work with. Good luck with Vranik.

And - I very much enjoyed your KC:D meme! <3 Jesus Christ be praised!
