How does Konung 3 compare to Konung 2 ?

[Konung]

Konung 3 is disappointed me , free run world-wide is disabled , u can go from this village to others village easily . Only a straight at every forests , animals with low level , no easter places , secrets , too .

Beside that , different character at each version made me wonder about the story , i can't understand why we always have new heroes . Where all the guys in previous versions ?

So , Konung 2 is better than konung 3 .

Agreed that the previous games where better.

And the story I think its becouse the previous heroes are all dead of age..
Konung 2 was in the Titan era if im not completly wrong, and in konung 3 they often talk about The era of the titans as in ancient history.
And beetween konung 1 and 2 it seems it was about 30-40 years diffrence, as some characters you meet the older versions of in konung 2, as in konung 1 you meet Sigmar as a young warrior, and in konung 2 as an old man.

And how about Old camp , Huntington village , Byzantine Camp ... ? I thought it must be appeared in this game , but not , new villages , new camps , byzantine seems to be extincted cause just only a byzantine camp i have seen .

well not sure if the developers gave much tought to it, but contrys / civilisations do dissapair in the world.. like persia and the sovjet union etc..
and theese are just little villages, so it culd easily happen that Old camp / huntington got attacked and burned to the ground, then the survivors moved to another village / started to build a new one.

I personally dont mind that they have came up with new villages, the easy way out whold be to just randomly name the camps the same as they were in the previous games...but we still have Lower camp,forest camp and Blackwood tough hehe

Hey,

I am having a good time with Konung 3 so far but I so miss the old graphics and the random encounters. I also miss the Elixir of wisdom which used to help my weak characters become stronger. I miss the free roaming in the world and the raids of the ruler's soldiers, which used to give my characters a lot of nice equipments and experience.

By the way, how do you use the 'healing' skill ? I invested two points in healing but I don't know how to heal myself and party. Thank you!

[sigmar]

hmm think it was a waste of points, seems only the healers can heal, so thats just a useless skill to give your character..
but I culd be wrong tough. but you culd try Ctrl clicking the character with the healing skill to see if theres an option to heal when you talk to him / her.

[Leith]

Well, I tried the CTRL thingy on myself and followers but to no avail. The question is: why include this skill in the game if it's useless?

[sigmar]

hehe thats just how the konung games roll! :p
But maby they just didnt bother to remove it from playable characters, as the skill exsists in the game, you can level up your healers in city to heal better.
