Chivalry 2’s medieval battlefields have appeared in this year’s adventure calendar, appearing in the background door number one. Its more forgiving sword fights replaced Mordhau in his affections:
Of course, I’m here to master my favorite swordsmanships, and fighting that I initially thought was too forgiving compared to Mordhau turned out to have its advantages. Chivalry 2’s health is huge, blocking is almost limitless, and everyone moves just a little bit slower. That means you get less rampage when a single warrior kills everyone around them with a few well-judged hits, but it also means everyone – claim and hulking knight – will survive a lot longer. The slower pace really prolongs the electrically overwhelming moments when you’re surrounded, plunging between enemies like Zorro in a musketeer plane, somehow staying alive. The highs aren’t as high, but they come more often and last longer when they do.
If you fancy some pants and belts this weekend, or some mud and pieces, come Epic shop page.
