Why Are There No Children in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2?
Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 has been appreciated by players for its detailed open world and realistic atmosphere, but there is one detail that stands out: there are no child characters in the game. This has led to various theories within the community. Players attribute the absence of children to the game’s story, historical context, or humorous details. However, developer Warhorse Studios has not made an official statement on the subject.
Theories About No Children in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2
Some players put this in a historical context, claiming that the game is set in 15th century Bohemia and that the concept of childhood was not defined in the modern sense at the time. However, there is also a humorous tone to these theories. According to a Reddit user, children may have been sent to work in the mines in the game.
Another theory is that the midwife character Bozhena in the game is to blame. A tragic birth event mentioned by Bozhena in the story is interpreted by players as “perhaps this is a more widespread problem.” One of the popular theories in the community is that the low birth rates in Bohemia will change with the arrival of the game’s protagonist, Henry.
Although Warhorse Studios has not made an official statement about the lack of children, it is thought that this situation may be related to ethical concerns or to limiting in-game violence. The absence of child characters in many open-world games is similarly associated with players’ sensitivity to such content.
Although this situation is treated humorously within the community, some players are waiting for a deeper story context. It is wondered whether Warhorse Studios will make a statement on this issue in the future. However, for now, Kingdom Come Deliverance 2’s world devoid of children continues to inspire players’ creativity.
