MORDHAU Reviews

- Abandonware This game is abandoned by the developers. Do not expect content - Horrible playerbase Duelyards are pointless, no way to learn the basics due to ever-present FFAs - Extremely clunky and abusive animations This is the direct reason of bad combat system - The combat system is just аss, let me clarify below It comes to a point where the player doing feints is the one winning the combat - always. Chambering the attack is nearly impossible due to the animation abuse - it's not possible to identify the angle of attacks when the enemy character spins like crazy or does whatever animation abuse they mastered. This in turn makes clear that in order to play this game normally you'll have to waste enormous amount of time learning all attack patterns in order to get the score in 1vX scenarios. - No matchmaking You will always be facing higher level players in public lobbies. The Quick Play button doesn't do anything and searches for a game indefinitely. - DLCs These DLCs items entries mess up the character customization menu, hence the navigation becomes horribly unintuitive. It takes time to actually find the item which is not required by the DLCs. Scammy tactics. Wouldn't it be hard to make a checkbox to make the DLC items to disappear from my menu? I have no intents of buying those. Cheers to character customization tho

Truly awful game. Horrible community, I only comeback for the swordplay because no other game besides chivalry offers it. And i'm sorely reminded why I stopped playing again and again. 90% of the moderators on the duel servers abuse their powers and ruin the game. The skill-gap in this game is like no other. You will lose over and over again and get a little bit better but it really doesn't help. And pretty much everyone playing the game are no live losers who have been playing since launch. So good luck but i don't recommend wasting your time with it.

Recent game updates include crashing and constant server issues!

What few remaining players there are (400-700 extremely sweaty people) are mostly trolls and if you aren't experienced and skilled with 400+ hours don't bother, you're wasting your time.

Not only the game is fun but the people i play with makes it even more funner, the amount of memories i made while playing this game will always make me happy in the rough times of life.

Servers for oceanic still going strong. ...just don't ever play an archer because you will get griefed repeatedly and abused for it.

best combat physics out of any of the fighting games. tons of fun and never gets old. do keep in mind it takes a lot of practice to get used to it, just keep trying and the game becomes more and more fun

Extremely hard to get into in the beginning because of the very high skill ceiling and seasoned veterans that will completely destroy you. However if you can manage it past this stage you will be rewarded with one of the most satisfying combat systems you've ever touched, if you fight against opponents that haven't dedicated all waking hours of their live to mastering the latest annoying cheese tactic. The game shines extremely well when you fight against opponents of similar skill level and teams are somewhat balanced. Unfortunately the casual game modes frequently drop the ball in this regard super hard and you might get completely stomped in some matches. My advice would be to give duel servers a try. While it might feel intimidating switching from the casual large battles to dedicated one-on-one fights (and you will find people that completely kick your ass) you at least have the ability to choose who you duel or not. Use this to duel people that are better than you, but don't completely frustrate you. Skill will naturally come with time played and with the help of a couple of tutorial Vids on Youtube. You just need to not get so frustrated you wanna curse the game never touch it again. Good luck Knight.

One of the greatest combat systems of all time, I'm glad this game is still going strong

It's a fun game and all, but you had to have joined in its prime when everyone was still relatively new. I've had the game for awhile and I have to take breaks from it because it gets frustrating playing against veteran players who know the game inside and out. It's very hard to learn nowadays.
