Not saying early Kenshi isn't great, I actually enjoy how it starts off as a survival game and becomes an exploration / base building game later on

I like ganes like that, bit it has to have a hook that keeps me interested. For example, Paradox games are the same. But I can only enjoy them with total conversion mods that change the setting to some reconizable IP I like.

The World Building of Kenshi is just so boring and uninteresting, even among the post-apoc genre that I just can't find the personal RP motivation to keep playing past a couple hours.

Well I remember reading it morally grey in a lot of areas, that you could cook and trafic drugs, commit regicide and what not, mixed with a supposed "make your own fun" all within in-universe setting of course. So a while after starting the game and a lot of crawling, I eventually come across two big factions, the muslim religious nuts and the other ones that I can't really remember much, and all of them practice slavery, so me thinking "hey slavery its a part of the game, I want to do the same too" but guess what, slavery its not le hecking wholesome or something, so you, the player, can't own slaves, that's a nono. There is however a faction of freed slaves, isn't that wholesome? So then I thought "alright the game won't allow me to have slaves, can I at least make a living by beating bandits and selling them as slaves?" cause you can make a decent living doing that in another game that isn't even focused on that like mount&blade: warband, you can even capture enemy soldiers and sell them as slaves and get an even higher pay depending on their rank, there's this mechanic where you can use sharp weapons to kill or blunt weapons to beat someone unconscious, and guess what, there's something similar in Kenshi YET you can't even make a decent living as a slave hunter. You get spare money at best, scraps at worst. There's even a slave trader faction so it makes you wonder how the hell do they make a living. Overall seeing as my two objectives to make my own fun weren't either allowed or viable, plus the totally unfun crawling for several hours and poorly optimized game, I called it quits.

It will seem like a harsh, difficult and highly autistic game at first, but as you progress, the illusion will fall and it will actually be a shitty idle grinder for non-autistic normies.

The game has problems like not being able to be a slaver but you can assign crew members to do slave labour in your bases, mods are always a thing as well. What do you mean by crawling, as in were your legs broken or was your FPS really slow?

False it turns into rimworld late game. Base building and defending from raids. The real problem is there's not enough research without mods to naturally keep you exploring endgame areas for AI cores unless you beat bug master there's nothing that leads you to catlon

Yeah I guess I could have done than and imagine they were slaves instead of crew members, and also ignore the pay. But it all just didn't seem logical to me and that was enough to throw me off, like I understand if a game like minecraft, or a ninteแฅ’d๐ฌ game won't allow you to be a slaver, but fucking Kenshi? And yes, I know mods, I had to install a bunch of optimized textures and meshes I think to finally hit a decent 60fps performance even while the game looked like barely finished mess, but it's one thing to mod a good fun game to make it even better, and quite another to mod it for it to start being fun, plus having to do the optimizing shit. Some landscapes were unique I won't lie, but it feel like once you've seen a city, you've seen em all. Again, it all fells an unfinished mess. As for crawling, I keep running into different variants of bandits that I can't remember the name now and they would beat me so I had to crawl to get to cities.

Started as a slave and got BTFO, uninstalled it and never played it again (this was three months ago). I think it's a good game, though, just my first play-through was retarded, all my fault, of course. One of these days I'll go back to.

Probably because most games only live for the sake of the player and the various factions in it don't interact much.

I love games that have conflicts between two or more sides without player involvement. There's very few games that do this.

It was a passion project of a single man for over a decade, I feel its excuseable it doesnt look quite modern or wok perfectly but my aging PC can run it alright. Sort of like Dwarf Fortress dying is a good way start learning quickly, being able to adapt such as not leaving safe areas you might hunt loot and food in before you have enough gear, levels and a crew to explore with. There arent some options like slavery but there is relative freedom and depth many open world games wont offer. If you dont want to learn by mistakes check out some beginner guides, theres some features and mechanics that would have saved so many hours for me but I decided to go in blind.

Kanishka watches Kenshi's night sky at the Leviathan's coast
>>713904104 (OP)
A beautiful tale of a dying world in which people fight to survive for yet another day. It's cyberpunk post-apocalyptic low level wuxia.
The main issue with the game is the jank going out of control with some features (base building is an example) and the fact that the retards sell this game by bringing forward examples of the wacky shit you can do (the game is about being enslaved, selling drugs and killing rich people LmaoXD) instead of the simple down to Earth experiences that account for most gameplay.
The real Kenshi experience is as simple as being a drifter, sitting down at a bar to eat, getting your things ready to leave. Maybe you'll walk the dangerous sands of the great desert, the peaceful roads of Okran's gift or cross uncharted territory. Anywhere you go, if push comes to shove you can only trust your sword and you will to live to get you out of trouble and hopefully into the next waystation bar before night falls.
IMHO this song is the best in the game and to me it exemplifies the feeling of Kenshi
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVh3XA9qJqo
It's a melancholic sadness that permeates the world but one in which there's still room for you to try to be yourself and build your own story.

Unfinished game with massive wasted potential
But there are enough solid bones to keep you going and if you like role playing and exploration you will probably sink many hours into it
After you get a hang of the basics don't be afraid to install mods Fogmen to Fugmen is basically essential, so get that from the Gabenshop even before you load up the game because the base game simply benefits from having more content in it
If you aren't diving into setting up an outpost, don't get suckered into doing things like mining or even crafting if you just have one character; unless you are doing it for roleplay purposes; you can get more money just exploring around and scavenging or helping town guards defend the gate from various animal or bandit attacks, looting anything that falls

It's fun for a little bit, but there's really no goal or endgame.

Fixed Clipping Issues
Slopeless
Martial Arts Faster Dodge
Let's Talk
Better Crop Fences
Cannibals Expanded
Hivers Expanded
Sold Items Disappear
FASTR

Those are my essentials. I never start the game without them. I play with a lot of other mods, but these are the ones I won't ever turn off.

You don't know it get, but this is basically monster hunter. Maybe you'll train with a sword for killing humans. Maybe you'll train with a saber or whatever to kill all the bone dogs, then you train with a stick or whatever it was to kill all the robots.
Red chip green chip, base.
Sometimes you wear armor for protection against a hobo and his beat stick. Sometimes you wear different clothes to avoid being turned into a pile of ashes by a death ray.
There's a layer nuance here that's never really discussed or brought up, but once you realize whats going on there's really no going back.
So train hard, gear up and farm those abandoned sites all over the map and get to researching. These factions ain't going to destroy themselves ya'know.

Yes!
Make sure you choose a city with at least a general shop as well as a mechanical shop
if you are just doing weapons a small stormhouse or shack will do but if you are getting into armour of any kind you probably want some more room-- the most if you want leather or chain, less if you are just doing clothes and plate-- but keep in mind getting raw ore for plate forging isn't great in most places
finally, prepare to be extremely fucking bored
you can sort of leave it idle while your character smashes through a queue but you will have to sell your goods for more resources fairly regularly so you will have to be awake
even if you just research up to refitted grade you can turn a decent profit on desert sabres, foreign sabres, and Katanas

think of it like this, it's a game tailormade for a certain brand of autism where you as the player are required to fill in for the game's shortcomings, for some people this is natural, as they may already do this in other games they play, for others, this may be against their idea of fun, that's really what it comes down to, what do you consider fun and what annoyances are you willing to put up with. This game tries to give you freedom but it sacrifices a lot of things other games do for the sake of said freedom.

If you want to do nothing but leathers for a bit consider Lagoon Flats
there is a small shack there, and you can fit a leather armour shop and tanning station in there if you are very careful
a great many things die a the gates, and regular caravans provide cloth for the lining

At least try an be a little fair here. This is NOT NORMAL and everyone who plays it knows it. You forfeit your right to bitch when you do that sorta thing. Feel free to prove me wrong and show me a single person attacking you and sliding through the gate like that. Likely will NEVER happen.

An initially fun experience until you realize the only interaction you have with the world is making number go up and murdering everyone. No actual faction manipulation. No real thought process behind conflict. Any attempt at roleplaying is hollow and pointless in the end. Mods egg this on and don't actually fix anything. 2 will be more of the same because zergtards make up the majority. Don't get me wrong. That first playthrough is pretty nice and will run you about 200-something hours, but once you get to the endgame you'll see what I'm talking about. Worth a pirate. Don't give Nat and her alphabet soup squad money.

This. Base building is a trap and turns the game into the sims. Just have a crew of 5 guys, explore, scavenge and sell shit, and never build more than a basic camp.

That will never happen because I'm white, and brown recluse spiders don't live in my country, unlike whatever third world mutthole you come from.

Check out the other free TA offshoot as well, BAR.
Both are good but I like Zero-K more because it's devs are clearly, well, you know...
BAR in turn has better graphics and a more "TA" purist loop.
Both are good and free.

There is actual faction manipulation as well, but it's not great and basically requires you to either have an end game ninja squad or leave a trail of bodies behind.

Difficult start but high level skills with a good katana is dirty broken. The logical conclusion to this run is you training up strength and wielding a Broken Moon.
>female thief in the holy nation
Stealth and Athletics is baby mode. If things get tough cut off your arms and legs and replace them with augmetics
>legless man that has to shit all the time
Torso solo sounds good on paper, but necessitates that you level up Stealth and Athletics. Leveling up Defecation might be hard until you reach a high level toilet in one of the main cities

You've never been to SkeleTown.
Smack dab in the center of the map.
The one town that has
Convenient acid rain and pools filled with acid to amputate your limbs without dealing with the skin flaying robots south-east
And the best artificial limb trader in the game
And is the SAFEST place in the game due to aforementioned acid fuckery, but has no wind

How large is is your, ahem, tribe?
If you're just running solo or with one singular band of bros then the game is rather hostile because you have no fall back.
No weewooweewoo high Strength/Athletics ambulance to drag you back to base after misjudging your relative power level. This does not apply to the Deadlands alone.

There's a free skeleton recruit in the Floodlands, north-west. He's immune to acid/dust.
If you HATE acid, just have your skeleton bros carry your frail human bros until they reach the town and can recuperate in the house you purchased

I'm glad we have Kenshi.
Too bad about the sequel, though - I'm sure the rainbow flaggots and the SJWs well into their middle age will be as relevant as they were in 2015.
In 2035 when it finally releases. LOL

The only good chinkshit autism game is Emperor: Rise of the Middle Kingdom, because it wasn't made by the chinks themselves.

Games made by Chinamen have a strange disease.
As a comparison, it's like every game made in the US needs to have cowboy hats and every single character needs to go Yeehaw!! at least once a minute - appealing to a small, yet very loud mouthed minority.
