Irrelevant
Next to none.
Vávra is kinda a cunt.
Not as important as Vavra thinks.
Events of that time: Very Important
KCD: insignificant/irrelevant
How many games are big and important in any culture bro
For gamers – depends on personal taste, but usually pretty important
For everybody else – not at all
People who don’t play videogames have no idea this game exists.
It’s a big deal in the Czech gaming community. People are really looking forward to it. Outside of that, while it’s not some groundbreaking thing the whole nation is hyped for, most people who consume media will have heard about it and are glad that it gives Czechia a good name abroad.
For gamers it is like 60% even with Vavra giving it a bit of a bitter aftertaste. For everyone else it is more like 0,1%.
I am more proud of Operation Flashpoint, Arma and Vietcong
Its important for me personally. I learned something from our history and more importanly iam glad others can see a piece of our beautiful nature and bits of culture. Its a break to play a game set in your home region, than to play again and again in clishe setting of US, uk or urban monolith whatevers.
To the czech culture its not that significant. It is a AAA game made here, great music was made for it and some listen to it ( and our drunken friend group even sings sometimes 😀 ). I know warhorse was working on some digital reconstructions of old bohemian castles. but thats as far as i think it goes.
Among gamers there was some hype that KCD is to the Czech republic what Witcher is for Poland.
But gamers are not an important part of Czech culture and the game’s author Vavra is a narcissistic cunt who inserts himself into every political/cultural conversation with his uninformed opinions. He’s got a fanbase of antivaxxers and other such types.
It’s very, very important, but I wouldn’t recommend asking on reddit since everyone here is woke.
It is a video game. It is not national culture defining video game. But the game is well known among players, and even to general public, because the first KCD did have succesfull kickstarter campaign, that was recognised in traditional news.
“fun” fact – the first KCD was sponsored by Zdeněk Bakala, a guy famous for lets say privatizaton of 44.000 flats in Czech republic. And when i say privatization i mean he got them from state for peanuts due to “concratual error”. Yup, 1990 and early 2000 were wild in Czech republic.
Not really.
Vávra aka quarter millionaire is just a huge cunt that thinks he’s something more. People outside of gaming don’t know that it exists and the rest just don’t care.
Definitely dont agree other people saying ‘irrelevant.’
People know about it. It gets mentioned in mainstream media which like never happens with video games.
Its not a gigantic deal but definitely is something a large share of the population is aware of, which is not common with this sort if thing.
Number 1 pre-ordered game in czechia and europe, id say a damn lot
Not as much as Mafia I
I don’t care about the game, and I don’t hear about it outside of controversies.
Less than it should be imho, we should be proud of our gaming industry.
Mafia series is more important, but not many foreigns know it’s from czechia
Not big niether important at all. It’s just a game.
In Czech gamers community it is seen as good AAA game but far from legendary status some claim.
Outside gamers community it is irrelevant.
And Vavra (owner of dev company) is controversial figure (to put it mildly) with his antivaxxer and pro-russian opinions.
Flashpoint/Arma series is more important. It was so successful that Bohemia interactive went to develop software for US military.
Forgettable medieval sim. Not nearly as impactful as Arma, Mafia or even Vietcong back in the day.
Even games like Factorio and Beat Saber are more known to the general public in and outside of Czech Republic. (Admitedly, fewer people know that Factorio and Beat Saber are czech games, true that.)

The time it’s set in is important for us, but the game itself, not so much.
In terms of the gaming industry, Mafia and Euro Truck Simulator put us on the map.
Sorry, what? It’s a game. How could it be important in any way when we litteraly have 1,8 million years of history and culture?

I would say that any Czech game with significant international overlap is important for gamers and therefore for the culture.
Is the game important for me? Am I going to praise it just because it’s Czech, no matter the quality? No.
It’s a videogame. Not too important.
From this comment section of circlejerkers, it might seem like it’s not relevant at all. Some people are just pissed off at Vávra and can’t understand that hundreds of other people worked on the game.
I think it’s a huge deal for the Czech Republic. It will have Czech dubbing, which isn’t common. For the first game, a few enthusiasts, with support from Warhorse, made it themselves in an amateur way, which shows that there is a player base, and it’s not small. At the same time, it’s been mentioned on TV, and it has collaboration with bank etc. – basically, everyone has heard of the game.
From a gaming perspective, it’s going to be amazing; it’s a big AAA RPG set in a critical part of our history, and I think a lot of people, including me, can’t wait to explore places we personally know in a medieval setting.
Also, I forgot to mention the fantastic soundtrack they created, as well as the boost in tourism to locations from the first game, and now with the second game, even more places will benefit.
If you want to play the game, sure. I don’t care what Vavra says on Twitter ( I don’t have it). You can learn Latin in the first game. The game has great graphics, although the fighting system is a bit frustrating when you’re against a group of bandits.
Good game, but it has barely made a dent in cultural circles. Like most of the people that play games know about it and are likely to have very positive opinion, but when talking about large cultural impact like some movies had, than no.
People know about it, but the first game has a somewhat “hardcore” reputation, so it’s more like a big niche/cult. Mafia is probably still more known after all those years.
Edit: In the Czech *gaming* community, it’s obviously very well known.
Mafia, mate.
I think its nice that games like witcher and CKD are known around the world, about the sequels i know only because theres some social discord where ppl are angry that the characters are not gay enough or gay too much…
Vávra is a big name in game design, especially here in the Czech Republic.
He was behind Mafia, now has his own KCD. He is legend when we speak about games.
He later somehow jumped into bad politics and some of his views on foreign or even our czech politics or freedom of speech are little bit off and many people disagree with him. And he bans them because of it out of discussion.. which is somehow against his own words about freedom of speech..
So he could just stay stuck in games because in other parts of life he is kind of dick..
Anyway.. KCD is super game. I cannot wait for KCD2 gameplay..
it’s like 50% of all our culture
So as most already said, for general population its not a big deal.
However it really boosts tourism in otherwise not so touristy areas (for example near Sasau/Sazava, Rattay).
Kutna Hora/Kuttenberg is actually welcoming it and preparing for influx of tourists, which for them is a big deal. As currently most international tourists book nights in Prague and come to Kutna Hora only on one day trips without sleeping over, they are looking forward to tourists that come visit specifically that area and stay longer.
Not important at all.
Literally isn’t in any shape or form
I don’t think it’s that big outside of gaming but I like and appreciate that it brings more attention to the Czech republic.
Factorio reigns supreme
