I love difficult games that require a mandatory learning curve. Chivalry definitely has one.
Although, after playing this game for a good while and trying to learn how to better my strategy during battles, the game still feels like it’s rigged or something.
Your swings/ slashes/ thrusts/ and blocks, always seem to miss constantly, while the enemy your fighting seems to land every hit, even if you both share the same distance between each other.
Timing is key in this game. I’ve learned how to swing first when my opponent is open for an attack. But from my experience, it seems my attacks don’t register, even though I’m legitimately right in front of my opponent.
Lastly, the game menu glitches at times, too. Been in moments where I can’t really click on a match, which makes me restart the entire game completely(which takes forever to start up), or join an offline match, quit, and wait a good while.
The game has potential and I do sometimes enjoy playing a match or two, but the majority of the time, it’s just constant irritation.
