Jun 9, 2021Chivalry 2 looks good, has a powerful energy, and it’s really fun! Honestly, the only reason you might dislike this game is that you’re really, really into Mordhau and its infinite gameplay possibilities. From our perspective, it’s a new foundation for the genre. [Recommended]

Jun 16, 2021Those complaints aside, I'm deeply into what Chivalry II offers, ie. a daft bloodbath. The moment-to-moment warring inspires many brief instances of silly movie violence. Chasing a disarmed opponent to the edge of a pit and booting him down, before being booted in yourself by the sneak who's been behind you the whole time. Chucking firebombs at your enemy's feet. Or chucking firebombs at your own feet, for that matter, in a spiteful final stand. Or leaping from a wall with an overhead axe attack but missing by two very important metres and crumpling your legs, granting your target ample time to crush your skull with his own cartoonishly appropriate weapon: a blacksmith's anvil. Chivalrous? No. Art? Well, just look at those colours.

Jun 11, 2021Horrible animations, horrible hit detection, combat somehow worse than in Chivalry 1. It's basically worse Mordhau guys, don't buy this mess.
