King Arthur: Knight's Tale

9/20 C'est le coeur lourd que je ne peux pas recommander ce jeu. Attention : il est réussi sur bien des aspects que j'aime habituellement : gérer des personnages, monter des compétences, améliorer une ville. MAIS comptez 10h pour l'acte... 1, sur 4, avec des tas de petits combats répétitifs, des tas d'objets d'inventaire à attribuer ou revendre pour équiper vos hommes, une difficulté que j'ai réglé sur difficile et qui rend certains boss vraiment hardcore. Et l'XP qui ne monte que très lentement, et l'or et les ressources de construction qui ne montent que trèèès leeeentemeeeeeent.............................. Donc malgré ses qualités, non, je m'arrête là.

Bon jeux !

The game has some minor issues here and there but overall it's a good game. It is made by a studio outside of the Usa so it's not filled with woke crap. We definitely need more grimdark games like this!

Amazing game!

[h3]King Arthur: Knight’s Tale – My Thoughts[/h3] This game really scratched my itch for a tactical, turn-based XCOM-style experience. Set in a dark, post-Romano-British Avalon steeped in Arthurian legend, it makes great use of its setting and atmosphere. The tactical combat reminded me of [i]Expeditions: Rome[/i]: deep, engaging, and rewarding. Compared to that game, [i]Knight’s Tale[/i] is lighter on RPG elements, but makes up for it with beefier combat and base-management systems. There are also meaningful choices that affect your characters and available missions, though the morality system (Righteous vs. Tyrant, Christian vs. Old Faith) is presented in a fairly simplistic way. It doesn’t quite capture the same nuance as [i]Expeditions: Rome[/i], but it does give your decisions weight. Combat itself is excellent: different classes, diverse skill trees, and well-tuned difficulty keep battles tactical and fun. Progression feels balanced, with the challenge easing slightly as you grow stronger, though the game occasionally throws in a fight that keeps you on your toes. My main issues are twofold: [b]• Visual style:[/b] Maps are richly detailed, but the omnipresent heavy fog makes navigation frustrating and obscures interactable objects. The blurry minimap doesn’t help. [b]• Game length:[/b] While there’s an impressive number of missions, they become repetitive. Too many maps follow the same formula: start in a foggy corner, move to a foggy clearing, fight enemies, repeat. Enemy variety and map layouts also start to blur together. The cast of recruitable heroes is large, but most lack meaningful development beyond their recruitment mission. The game could have been tighter and more memorable with fewer missions, more tile-sets, and more scripted encounters. Despite these flaws, [i]King Arthur: Knight’s Tale[/i] stands as a worthy entry in the pantheon of tactical turn-based combat games. It may overstay its welcome, but when the combat is this good, it’s hard to complain too much.

[h1]A Solid but Overly Long Tactical RPG[/h1] King Arthur: Knight’s Tale is a decent tactical turn-based game that feels quite similar to XCOM. There are five character classes, each serving a different role in combat, and skills unlock across three tiers (levels 5, 10, and 15). The problem is that characters within the same class lack real diversity—their skill sets are nearly identical, just split across the tiers. By the time you reach the final tier, every character in the same class essentially plays the same. The combat itself is fun, but it quickly grows repetitive since the game introduces no new mechanics. Progress becomes a cycle of finishing missions, recruiting new characters, and moving the story forward. Speaking of the story, it didn’t really grab me—but that may be because I’m not deeply familiar with Arthurian lore. The game reimagines the legend as a dark fantasy twist, and I suspect those who know the original tales will appreciate its creativity more. Another drawback is pacing. At the end of Act 1, I thought the game was wrapping up—only to realize it was just the beginning. With no fresh mechanics being introduced, the length made it feel like a slog. Honestly, the game would’ve been stronger if it were shorter. Overall, though, I still think it’s worth a try. While I didn’t have the patience to finish, I did have some fun moments, and fans of tactical RPGs may find value here.
