    This is battlefield meets ancient England. I love it! The combat may look boring in video but its very complex and nuanced. Non stop laughs and its engaging. I don't get why no major reviews are out for it yet. This is a must have IMO

    This game is amazing. It's the best, medieval style game I've ever played.

    Booted the game at around 8:00 PM and played for an hour. Looked at the time and it was 2:00 AM.

    I made an account on metacritic just to post a review for this game.
    The game is amazing, lots of fun. The party system is horrendous. I could a bar of drunks into a straight line better than these guys can make a party / invite system.
    If you have no friends, play the game.
    If you have friends to play with, go play literally any other game and avoid Epic.

    Game is pretty great medieval fighting game; better than the alternatives such as Mordhau. It has a great complexity level; simple enough for people to easily get into but complex enough to reward those who go hardcore. Great graphics, beautiful maps, good customization options, and plenty of weapons to pick from that all feel viable to a degree. I hope to see continue support andGame is pretty great medieval fighting game; better than the alternatives such as Mordhau. It has a great complexity level; simple enough for people to easily get into but complex enough to reward those who go hardcore.

    A few complaints from an otherwise great game. A couple of the maps don't feel fully balanced. The javelin feels like utter trash; it doesn't do enough damage while it can be blocked by any weapon instead of just a shield. Also late stage auto balance literally feels like a slap in the face; after spending in some matches a good twenty minutes fighting and helping push your team forward only to be switched to the other side is just plain bull (doesn't matter if it puts me onto the winning or losing team). This autobalance is the main reason I give this game an 8 instead of a 9; it has happened too many times already.

    Chivalry 1 created a brand new genre. Chivalry 2 perfected it. The gameplay loop is fantastic, the graphics are marvelous, the maps are phenomenal in terms of design and aesthetic, the sounds are superb, and the game is just down right fun. It's cross-platform so you can enjoy it with all of your friends. As a new player you can do well, but as you play more you understand how theChivalry 1 created a brand new genre.

This may be the worst medieval game i have ever played and the potential it had made me pissed off enough to spread the truth. The combat is weak; choppy animations, unbalanced swing types and their translation to hit time are wonky at best (heavy attacks faster than light attacks). Blocking is a joke in this game, to the point that hitting someone in the back is completely blocked or, may not even have a result at all because for some reason your attacks sometimes don't even exist. Little to no content, except, of course, skins. The game was a cash grab and you can tell. Expand

    This game is a major improvement from the first one and way more fun than Mordhau. The graphics are amazing, the gameplay is easy to pick up/hard to master. And the kills are so satisfying! Runs well on my laptop even though i only have a 1050ti. great work by the dev team! 10/10 cant stop playing

    Somehow, this irreverent hilarity and overwhelming brutality is a match made in heaven. Medieval warfare is terrifying, but it’s also inherently absurd. Bring us more of it.

    As is, Chivalry 2 features an immersive Team Objective mode that highlights all the best parts of this online multiplayer. The other two modes are okay in moderation and require you to do more button mashing than the precise motions you thought the game wanted you to perform all along. If you can get past some of its blander parts and focus on the joys of mastering swordplay, Chivalry 2 can be a lot of fun despite its weak spots.

    Chaotic melees give little opportunity to use more sophisticated fencing mechanics, but there’s no denying that there’s a lot of pure visceral fun to be had here. [Issue#254, p.58]
