    Chivalry 2
    For Honor
    Chivalry 2 Is great is it for me? No, I got bored of it fairly quickly.. but for those really into hand to hand combat nd roll playing, this game is great. Chivalry 2 is basically for honor except just knights… you choose red team or blue team and then youre off into a 64 player or 40 player battle for control over a castle.. youll be defending or attacking, using    Chivalry 2

    Chivalry 2 Is great
    is it for me? No, I got bored of it fairly quickly.. but for those really into hand to hand combat nd roll playing, this game is great.
    Chivalry 2 is basically for honor except just knights… you choose red team or blue team and then youre off into a 64 player or 40 player battle for control over a castle.. youll be defending or attacking, using on of 4 different classes, all with their own special perks, such as the knight being able to heal your team, or the archer being able to shoot fire arrows… I had a blast for my first couple hours of this game…
    The combat here is very deep like that of for honnor, so if you dont like for honor, youre not gonna like this game.. .. its not very casual friendly.. you have to learn how to block and parry, time your attcks… this is a game that demands you master it to have any amount of fun…
    to be able to pick off other players as they surround you like sharks.. this is where Chivalry shines and youll be getting most of your enjoyment from.. testing yourself.
    My biggest complaint with Chivalry is that I feel like there is no rhyme or reason to anything.. no team strategy.. it really does just feel like run into battle and kill everyone while trying not to get killed, defend these positions or take these positons before time runs out… I did enjoy doing goofy bttle cries, running right to my death, but this joy wore off on me pretty quickly..
    Where Chivalry 2 got some of my joy back was in its free for all mode.. I felt like a god among knights in this mode, just slicing through everyone like warm butter as we all raced to be the first to 35 kills in an arena.. at least that’s what the game says.. but the matches definitely go beyong the first to 35…
    Overal Chivalry 2 cant quite get its hooks in me the way for Honor did… maybe the lack of modes… the lack of feeling like im doing anyything to contribute to my teams victories or losses…
    But I can appreciate the care put into this game and I can see the role players out there losing months to this game.
    I give Chivalry 2

    Excellent game, nothing else like it on console. There are bugs (as the negative reviews will tell you) but the devs have already announced their intention to fix them.

    This game is the friendlier cousin of Mordhau, both are great in their own right but Chiv 2 is definitely more casual. Phenomenal amounts of fun.

    I really enjoy it so far on my ps5. No server problems for me so far, no grieving experience for me st least.. It takes a bot to get the hang of it

    This game is amazing. The combat is so fun and in depth, the ragdoll is hilarious in a good way, the charge sequences are insane. There is nothing like this on console.

    Really enjoy this game.
    Fast paced at first, much more nuanced as you get more skill.

    I could see some maps getting repetitive, but the high player counts should keep matches feeling fresh.    … Expand

    Very funny, highly entertaining game. It has a few bugs, but if you are looking for hand to hand multiplayer action, this is fantastic. Fun factor up in the millions!

    Not sure what the bad reviews are about. The game is hours of smash and chop fun.

    Funny and knows his stuff. Certainly best of its kind. Unfortunately, For Honor is practically no longer supported and is in fact already dead. These guys, on the other hand, are fresh, they believe in it and propose a game that is alive and in development. Great

    Utterly Fantastic Game but Held Back. This game is some of the most fun I have had playing a mulitplayer game. The gameplay is like nothing you have ever experienced.

You’ll be charging into battle, only to see one of your friends be sent 100s of    Utterly Fantastic Game but Held Back. This game is some of the most fun I have had playing a mulitplayer game.

    32v32 melee based combat is truly something to behold. It’s chaotic and hilarious. When you’re with friends, you’ll be laughing constantly. You’ll be charging into battle, only to see one of your friends be sent 100s of metres by a ballista and another get his head chopped off from the flanking team. It’s a simple combat system but can be mastered. When you master it, it’s rewarding, especially when you have moments of killing 3 players in a 3v1 situation. If it wasn’t for the bugs and glitches. This game would be a 10/10 for me. The game is constantly kicking you out of games, resetting your customised character (which takes 4-5 minutes to customise again, it doesn’t sound bad but it gets old after the 3rd time in 15 minutes). Also most of the trophies on PS4/PS5 are glitchy and currently I have several glitched on me. That probably doesn’t bother many players but it did for me. Great game that needed more time to work out the kinks. Considering the game is over 12 months old at this point, I can’t see them being fixed. I would still recommend though.    … Expand

Can’t put this down. Kudos to the devs who have made something truly unique and delivered it incredibly well, bravo!

    The gameplay mechanics… until you get used to them they do seem a little clunky to start but this is deliberate and the more you play the more you overcome this and master your weapons. I was completely unfamiliar with the concept of “drag” going in to this but it’s there because it makes perfect sense.

    The level design… incredible, they are designed brilliantly, the battles feel epic and yet the levels are large enough to creep round flanks and go off piste if you dare! The graphics… these are spot on too, the textures are detailed and rich and my only gripe is the horse on the main menu screen (looks cartoony and odd). The armour shines and glistens in the sun and the overall look feels right for a medieval game. Gory, very very gory just like a medieval battle sun should be!

    Sound… anyone that’s played for honor will know exactly what I mean when I say poor voicing can totally kill the game, thankfully the devs got it bang on again in Chivalry2, proper English accents, Scott’s that sound like they’ve come straight off the highlands, some jokey some more serious depending on your preference but they all work and contribute to this feeling of a genuine medieval experience.

    Overall I think this is the best game I’ve played in a long time, it is a bit rough round the edges in some ways, respawning far away can be annoying when you’re attacking an objective and online skill of some players is next level making it difficult to rack up kills, my advice is spend some serious time in the beginners lobby and get used to the gameplay before taking on seasoned battle hardened folk! Chivalry 2 is a game I wouldn’t be without now, big fan and a big thumbs up to the creators for making something that stands out from the same old same old    … Expand

    The best anti stress game I've ever played. Love the simple dynamic of the game where we can enjoy some killing without guilt.

    The game offers an immersive crusade experience, but thankfully doesn't take itself too seriously. Despite the many severed limbs, there is plenty of room for a dash of humor. Now if the developer could only do something about the large amount of bugs on PS4, they just might have a cult hit up their sleeve.

    Chivalry II can entertain you for hours, especially if you are a fan of Multiplayer games; but for a continuous success and keeping the game alive, the developers need to deliver constant updates and content.

    The sequel to the classic is indeed worthy in most ways, and Chivalry II is a much needed upgrade to the original game. Combat has a lot going on, and while many players will behave as non-chivalrous bastards, there is a good amount of fun to be found on the medieval battlefields of Chivalry II.
