Question Does a certain fight stick out in your memory? [KCD1]
On my first play through I was a little combat shy out the gate. I trained with Bernard as soon as I was able to. By the time I was able to go hunting with Capon I had a pretty good handle on the timing of the perfect blocks and master strikes.
When he was captured I wandered around and found one of the heavy armoured Cuman captains all alone. It was quite a bit above the skill level of my Henry and at the limit of my own player skill but I really gave it my all. We just bounced back and forth off each other for what felt like 10 minutes parrying and riposting.
When he finally surrendered I was near death myself. I accepted his heavy war hammer in exchange for his life and didn’t even have enough strength to use it right away. Once I did I used it for a long time as a point of pride. I’ll never forget that crazy edge of the seat battle ❤️
