Yes. Check the latest KS post.
Well, it lacks magic and dragons.

Also, from their Facebook...
Have there ever been any other medieval games based in the HRE? Everything seems to usually be set in the crusades.

Even Crusade games are rare that aren't strategy or tactics games, unless they toss in a bunch of typical D&D fantasy stuff. Assassin's Creed was really the first big action hit in the medieval/renaissance era action game, and even that has a bunch of "advanced precursor" fiction.

Then again, this game already looks amazing, and the promises they are making for storyline and questing makes me salivate.
Actually, they were aiming at $500k dollars, and have raised $1,418,239 technically :P (they were aiming for £300, which are worth more than $)
My brother is kickstarting this, and I'm thinking I should too, but I don't know if I want to kickstart it separately since I don't have a lot of money right now... it's something I'll have to consider carefully.
It's going to be a great candidate for the Rift. Just wandering around a medieval world, soaking in the atmosphere.

Exactly. It was the lack of the fantasy element really drew me in. It makes me sad that the only real games based in this setting are either ones I've played to death (M&B) or stuck being MP only games.
So, while everyone is seemingly waiting with baited breath for SC, I'll be tapping my foot and looking at my watch waiting for this and M&B 2.
Ahh yes, I didn't check the currency that the Kickstarter was using.
Anyways, the point is they far exceeded their initial goal so as long as all goes well, I'll be buying this game someday.

It's really fun! I had no idea it existed until my coworker noticed it on Steam a couple of days ago. It has some Eastern Euro bugs, but the production values are ridiculously impressive. The voice acting is great, and all of the characters so far have been a lot of fun. It has a sense of humor which helps a lot, and is absolutely gorgeous. It has mechanics out of the ass and is really unlike anything I've played so far -- I'm not super far into it but it's been a blast so far. I was thinking about making a thread for it today, but seems like we have one from ages ago.
Also, erm, it's been selling really really well. What I've heard of the lead guy's politics are incredibly far away from mine, but "alternative facts" are bad whether you're on the right or left.
It's a buggy indie title with multiple systems people aren't fond of being sold at an AAA price point. I picked it up because I could get it at a slightly cheaper price, can handle a fair amount of jank, and really could use an open world game with deep sim elements after having barreled through a number of more directed gameplay experiences and can really get into a more realistic depiction of sword use and a deep dive into the historical setting. But I absolutely do not recommend anyone else pick it up right now until many of the technical issues are resolved.
It's a lot of fun but that comes with a lot of buts.
The save system is really bad for a lot of people. No save on quit is a big thing even for people that are otherwise okay with needing to sleep or use a consumable to save though on PC that's easily moddable.
The lockpicking system is either really rough to control on gamepad or too fast to properly do on mouse and keyboard and it's quite easy to break all your lockpicks during the tutorial on it.
The reputation system and what constitutes being caught committing crime is really unclear.
Combat sucks big time until you do some of the practice sessions against the guard captain that unlock your defensive abilities and even then a lot of things like how to win a clinch (apparently it's mashing an attack button ASAP) get explained.
Pickpocketing and talking to someone are mapped to the same key.
There's frequent stuttering/hitching.
Some quests/activities are heavily bugged.
Stairs have bizarre collision issues.
The AI routines have issues keeping their intended schedules, most noticeable if you arrive in a city before shops are supposed to open.
Some things are scaling very weirdly. People report things like high levels in swordsmanship basically letting you ignore enemy armor, unarmed combat severely damaging armor, and until a recent small patch clothes would become dirty within a few minutes of just washing them.
But I'm having a lot of fun with it still just because of the simulation and some of the ridiculous things I've resorted to due to how weak Henry is. I've spent two days largely just picking flowers to sell for early cash. Almost every hard fight I've had or could have had has been dealt with by sneaking up on someone to knock them out from behind and then kill them while they were unconscious. I've robbed two wayfaring knights that way, killed a tough Cuman fighter that way, and did a variation of it with two bandits when I shot each with one arrow from stealth and then managed to quickly bleed one out when he ran into my sword as I was stabbing at his unarmored.
With updates, this could better realize its potential but right now I'm suffering through a lot of awfulness to enjoy the good parts.

Like, the voice acting and general acting have been beyond The Witcher 3 for me so far. It's not as polished from a bug standpoint, and I doubt the writing will hold up when looked at as a whole. But it's pretty objectively not an indie title with the number of employees and being published by Deep Silver.
