![]() Mordhau’s balancing and combat work very differently when compared to the usual melee games. Not that it’s a bad thing, the two games aim to achieve two vastly different forms of combat, but a low skilled player in For Honor can beat a high skilled player provided the former is using a character which is considerably more powerful. The combat system doesn’t give anyone an advantage over another as opposed to a game like say, For Honor. Mordhau truly is completely dependent on your skill. The “skill-based combat” here is important. Mordhau, as the developers describe it, “is a multiplayer medieval melee game with a strong emphasis on skill-based combat”. Mordhau is the first game by the indie developer Triternion. I have no doubt those problems will be fixed in the coming months. After 44+ hours of playing Mordhau, I have to say I really like this game but there are too many minor annoyances that prevent me from loving it. As of writing this review, only a few days ago, they released a brand new map for the game along with a new weapon. I do not regret my decision as the hardworking folks at Triternion have been constantly updating the game to fix the problems it had since launch. Since indie games especially indie multiplayer games usually have a rough start, I decided to review this game 2 months later. Approximately three and a half years later, we have arrived at 29 th of April, 2019, the day Mordhau is finally made available to the public. At first, I thought, “Oh it’s just one of those indie Unreal Engine projects that get abandoned a few months later”, but the frequent updates from the developers made me doubt myself. This was the update Chivalry needed to bring its player base back.Įver since the day I saw that video, I have been waiting. What I saw was essentially the spiritual successor of Chivalry made in the Unreal Engine. That beacon was this video by a small channel called “Mordhau” uploaded on the 18 th of December, 2015. However, there was this single beacon of hope. Now, the game is pretty much dead and the only players that are present are ballerina dancers exploiting the combat system. Regrettably, I did not buy the game when it was at its peak. As an enthusiast of medieval arms and armour, I had always wanted to play Chivalry: Medieval Warfare.
