Kingdom Come Deliverance receives an Easy Mode thanks to this mod, available for download


Modder ‘Jindra1403’ has released an unofficial Easy Mode for Kingdom Come: Deliverance. According to the modder, this Easy Mode is balanced to give the player overall easier gameplay without either being too easy (like playing with cheats) or shutting some of the game features completely off.

While the vast majority of the changes in this mod can be benefited from just by playing on your playline with the mod, a few changes will only take place when you start a new playline with the mod already installed (such as changes to events that happen at a specific point in the story, e.g at the beginning of the game).

Going into more details, this Easy Mode allows Henry to receive +2 to every stat he picks from his first dialog with mother (instead of +1), allows the player to get more money as a reward in quests, allows health to regenerate faster when sleeping and makes bleeding slower, and makes perfect blocks and ripostes easier to perform on lower levels / in early game.

Those interested can download this Easy Mode for Kingdom Come: Deliverance from here, and below you can find all of its key features.
