NPCs will report crimes to authorities, who will punish the player accordingly, either with a fine or time in jail. Characters are able to react to all player actions and adjust their routines to them. Every non-player character (NPC) has a daily routine, and every routine can be affected by the player. The storyline features some large-scale events such as castle sieges and large battles. Quests are intended to be nonlinear, with multiple ways to complete objectives to allow multiple character types to be viable. For example, a sword is a quick weapon for striking and parrying, but is not very effective against heavy armor. Different weapons have different characteristics, making them useful for different purposes. This system aims to add greater variety and realism to the combat, coupled with a variety of basic combat moves and combination moves, some of which can be unlocked by skill points. The game uses long- and short-ranged weapons in combat which is based on a physics system using inverse kinematics to determine the reactions of both combatants based on the speed and weight of a blow. The game uses skill/stat-based mini-games for many of these tasks, including weapon and armor repair, as well as for gathering new items by picking locks or pockets, distilling alcohol, or creating medicines. Foodstuffs and other perishable items will spoil over time.

Equipment and clothing also degrade and require repair. Kingdom Come: Deliverance also features a needs system which requires the player to sleep and eat in order to stay healthy. Steeds come with five slots for armor and attachments. The player can also fight from horseback and use their steed to carry items if they need additional inventory space, but warhorses are also competent combatants with their own AI. Horses are featured heavily in the game, and are designed to act with their own AI while under the player's control, moving or jumping to avoid small obstacles or dangers. The player is able to use a variety of weapons, including swords, knives, axes, hammers, and bows. Clothing also gets progressively more worn, dirty, or bloody through use, affecting the character's appearance. Each clothing type provides different levels of protection against different types of weapons. For example, a heavily armored knight may on his upper body wear a gambeson, followed by mail and plate armour, with a tabard or surcoat over top, for a total of four clothing items in the chest slots. The clothing system features 16 item slots and items on many areas of the body that can be layered. Ĭharacter bodies and faces are created through the combination of multiple, individual pieces with finishing touches. Reputation is based on player choices and therefore can bring consequences. During conversations, the time a player takes to make a decision is limited and has an effect on their relationships with others. Abilities and stats grow depending on what the player does and says through branched dialogue trees. It utilises a classless role-playing system, allowing the player to customise their skills to take on roles such as warrior, bard, thief, or a hybrid of these.
