Lo-Fi Games talk about designing Kenshi 2 to "repeat" less for dedicated players, and also their hatred for Fondue.

I really want to pick up Kenshi again. But the last time I touched the game I put 30 hours into it over a 3-day weekend. I fear for my free time.

There is just something about coq that feels bad. I play CDDA, i play elona, i dabble in DF, and i play the heck out of kenshi, but coq just doesn’t click. Maybe it’s the UI, maybe the game just doesn’t feel as deep or as rewarding to explore.

Opposite situation here, CoQ is boring, hard and you don’t know what to do or how not to die every 5 seconds

Also, I don’t like the art style

In Kenshi no situation is totally desperate

I love Kenshi and COQ, and Starsector.

Hate Mount&Blade tho lol

Couldn’t tell you why

From what I’ve been able to gather, it’s basically a sandbox. Imagine if F:NV had no main quest but allowed you to create your own faction. You’re just unleashed onto the wasteland to do whatever and let everyone else respond to it.

That is to say, much of the fun comes from building drug running bandit empires.

Same. I gave Kenshi a try and it didn’t click for me. Caves of Qud though, that game is pure unmitigated crack for me. Live and drink, friend.

What state of mind do you have when enjoying coq?

Every time I start I get like 7 levels in and a dungeon deep and it all seems pretty shallow.

Which is a surprise for me because i thought it will be pretty much the opposite. Simple graphics, komplex mechanics.

It has to open up, right? But then why is it rogue-like?

Don’t know. Always quit it thinking “this is it?” and than starting again thinking “this can’t be it”.

That would actually be awesome.

I like Kenshi a lot. But it really feels like Gothic in that the start of any given character more or less feels identical. Same steps to get to the point where you can start doing the stuff that actually makes the game really fun. A lot of CRPGs in the 00s/early 10s had that problem and Kenshi ramps it up to 16.

I’m excited for kenshi 2, even if I’m beyond wary of it being made in Unreal engine…

As long as I have to be “mostly dead” a few dozen times before I can survive the easiest fight, I am happy.

Remember the first time I played I went to fight a goat and got absolutely brutalized. I loved kenshi, but I can understand why some didn’t. Building a huge base a pumping out hash was my crowning achievement. Then the religious freaks showed up and my tower guys killed everyone. Later I found some band of 30 mis-programed bots that I would take with me and they killed anything around me. Ahh…such a great game.
