A new flagship title by Paradox, it looks to be a single/multiplayer game focused on said conflict, with a focus on customizability.

Hopefully it'll be more than just combat, while the idea of an action game with no guns is cool I expepct a little more from paradox.

Still, it looks like the battles of mount & blade but a little more action packed and much prettier *_*

It's now on Free weekend on steam if anyone wants it, and it only costs $5 USD.

The basic mechanics are sort of similar to Skyrim. Click the mouse and move it to choose an attack side. Left and right for left and right slashes, forward for an overhand, and back for stabbing.

Defensively, shields give the best defense however it's also possible to defend using a weapon, and it works similarly to attacking. Block left, right, high and low correspond to the attack movements, and a marker will appear telling you which way the attack is coming from.

There's at least 2 modes, one of which is team deathmatch and the other is take-and-hold.

Also, you can flip down your visor for extra defense but it will reduce your sight a bit. It's a neat touch. I highly recommend this game, it's quite fun.

I got it. Tried out the first bits. Nothing too exciting so far.
