    Mordhau is basically two games in one: on one hand, it has a complex fighting system with feints, ripostes and so on. On the other – you can forget about all that fancy dueling stuff and just charge in with your halberd, hoping to chop off a few heads before losing your own. [Issue#239, p.62]
  2. The fighting system is fun and the game gives the atmosphere of the middle age battlefield in a good way. Even though it loses its magic when playing for a long time. It has potential if future update able to keep players in the game and fix frustrating bugs and Server issues.

    On paper, Mordhau could look like any medieval brawler as we have seen for years. But in reality, it knows how to stand out with a combat system that is halfway between the arcade game and the realistic one, and a rather advanced personalization. We only regret the low number of cards and game modes, hoping that it will be completed in the near future via a few updates. However, everything is counterbalanced by a chubby humour that hits the target and will give you (at least) a few dozen hours of fun, with or without friends.

    The medieval warfare game we were all waiting for.
    A must buy for 20 euros.

Basically better in every way. They have some server issues, because they didn't prepare to be Steam #12 most played game with 34K peak players. So the servers are severely overloaded. They are in process of getting more server capacity, but you might want to hold off a few days.

    Oh btw, first Unreal 4 indie game that I've seen, that doesn't run like garbage
