The issue here is that these "people" who struggled in the first dungeon won't know where to go immediately like you do (though it's still easy to find the exit), will try (and probably fail) to fight every enemy, get lost because they're brainlets, and then complain about all those things. I'd imagine these people when they open that door to the throne room become overwhelmed instantly, let alone find that lever. Again, the dungeon is incredibly easy, but these people are more uses to...simpler dungeons, if that's even possible with the starter dungeon. Also lol at the pacified Archer.

Well in case my post somehow gets picked up by a search engine.

Just obliterate your Will & Luck as they give negligible benefits. I had to keep Personality at 30 as Unity does make it harder to get information out of npcs the worse your Personality is. Short Blade for the ebony dagger and all magic skills because they are easy to level.

Pick whatever skills and advantages and disadvantages you want as this character will be overpowered for the entire game as it will take only a few levels to max out speed which allows you to move and attack faster.

Isn't the chance of catching Lycanthropy something like 1%? If there's an easy way to get it I'd love to know for my next playthrough.

Do as @Enward Cullen said and get yourself a critical weakness to disease to get lycantrophy more easy.
When you are a werewolf, don't worry about diseases anymore. Get Hircine Ring before, between or after, but believe me: the ring is very important.

Weakness to disease does not make it easier to get vampirism or lycanthropy. However it is a great disadvantage to take as diseases are only dangerous in the early game I would recommend both crit weakness to paralysis and disease as auto picks outside of role playing.

Pure warriors with no magic will have to rely on potions or whatever magic items they find. If you level up either your Lock Picking or Daedric and Impish skills you can join The School of Julianos if you have not already joined a temple for an item maker at rank five.

If I were in bethesdas shoe's i'd just give daggerfall a new coat of paint, make some adjustments, then release it for 80 dollars. People act like gamers have these intense, refined tastes but a huge chunk of people play GTA just to drive around.

What is it with Skyrim players demanding arachnophobia mods? Bitch, they're spiders in a video game.

I watched this the other day and thought of our retarded zoomer friend Frostbreak.
The dude goes into his save file and gives himself every disadvantage and makes his character the weakest you can and he still beats the game. While zoomer boy couldn't even finish the game, lol.

It's an odd relic of virtue signalling. Remember, you don't get credit for being as woke as the rest of the crowd, you have to stand out from them.

Aracnophobia mods came from an early variant of this, where some wokie stood up and demanded it because phobias were popular fake disabilities to claim on Tumblr (literally no one can argue with you about it). It reached it's absurd endpoint IMHO when someone claimed to have a phobia about the color blue and was harassing other users who had blue themes. But I digress. Right after Skyrim was released someone pulled this and demanded / released an arachnophobia mod, where the spiders were replaced with Spiderman or something absurd. But once that early "I'm more empathetic than you are" thing hit the rest of the woke horde stepped up to go "oh yeah me too, I also give a shit about that, give me asspats for being woke and empathetic and activistic and shit!"

This is called a "Virtue Spiral" when the woke do it, similar to a "Purity Spiral." A horde pushing themselves ever more woke and to greater heights of activism to prove they're better than the crowd. It's also known by it's more common name: A lynch mob.

It has recently crossed my mind that in DF a lot of enemies have poisoned weapons, but for some reason this wasn't available to the player as a mechanic until Oblivion.

I see this in a fair number of Skyrim mods, it's ridiculous.

I would not even play the game like that sounds like honestly just the worst. At that point you're better off simply running and never fighting anything. I think you only have to fight 3 enemies in the entire game as you need to kill a zombie to get the letter and a lich for the soul and finally a mummy for the dust.

It did exist in Morrowind, but only in the form of spells and enchanting your weapons with the poison effect. No one typically did it outside of roleplaying because it was one of the worst offensive enchantments in both enchantment/spell point cost and general effectiveness. For context, Absorb Health is a cheaper and objectively superior enchantment effect, whilst any of the three types of elemental damage will be even cheaper than that.

Poison weapons in Daggerfall work sort of how poison works in reality. It would be pointless to give the player the ability to poison their weapons as no one wants to wait hours for the enemy to die. Could be useful for roleplay, but that's it.

No, you just gotta get clawed for a while until you eventually catch it. .6% chance per successful hit.

You can get lycanthropy starting at level 2. Vampire Haunt and Dragon's Den dungeons can spawn werewolves at that level. Cyndassa's quest is level 5 but gets you a guaranteed werewolf. Otherwise there's a Fighter's Guild quest you can do right after joining where they ask you to hunt a lycanthrope in a dungeon and it'll be a werewolf or a wereboar or a grizzly bear (idk questgiver was drunk I guess.)

So those are your options early game.

I think my biggest gripe with the remaster was that, at random points and locations in the game, my FPS would just tank to like 5fps.
I look at a house the wrong way? 5FPS, I turn around? Bam, back to 60-80fps. Very weird, but the remaster is solid

Say what you want about KCD2 selling out to culture war nonsense, the gameplay was still quite good.

The first and second kingdom come games are the only games I've played that captured that Bethesda je ne sais quoi. I hope Bethesda is taking notes. I already know they aren't and they'll dumb shit down more. But a man can dream.
