Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Has Incredibly Accurate Sound Design
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2is filled with easter eggsand details that often go unnoticed by players, but one individual has discovered a sound detail that has blown the minds of fellow players. In a new post on Reddit, user Red_farmer revealed thatKingdom Come: Deliverance 2features accurate representations of the speed of sound. The user said they spent ten minutes tracking lightning strikes from a hilltop and noting their approximate touchdown points, they then timed how long each strike took and marked the measuring distance from their position on the map. The test revealed that thunder is “appropriately delayed relative to distance,” according to the user. This means the sound of the thunder varies depending on how far away the lightning strike is, just like in real life.
This is just one ofKingdom Come: Deliverance 2’s many realistic details, but it’s arguably one of the most impressive. Fellow Reddit users chimed in to praise Warhorse Studios for its efforts, with userFast-Year8048saying they “love the details” inKingdom Come: Deliverance 2, whileCanticlePhotogrpahypraised the entire sound design of the game, saying that the bell rings from monasteries are incredibly accurate. “The sound of bells ringing and the way that sound transforms as I move through cloistered courtyards, covered walkways, etc., to get inside the church is very clear and distinct to me as someone who has lived with it,” the user noted.
