Two handed downward stroke with a broadsword

[Gl]

Gets completely cross blocked by a stationary rapier? Why doesn't the game have poise/stance? If the weapons aren't going to have momentum stats then all the weapon swings and thrusts should move at the same speed. There needs to be more thrusting moves for the sabers and longswords.

There are tons of thrusts for each longsword character. There ARE stances. Sabers have thrusts, despite not really being good thrusting weapons.

There is momentum. There is weight. There is blowing through a guard depending on position and weight. Any number of things could have led to it being blocked, including a moment of wonky physics.

Dude. You just REALLY need to read and ask about game mechanics instead of making topics like this and getting embarrassed.

Dude, this game is LITERALLY physics based, momentum is baked into each and every attack you can make. This game doesn't have poise because this isn't Dark Souls, where you can just unga bunga into your opponent with a greatsword and come out on top. This game is built around saber fencing, where a single well-placed strike ends the round.

But-but greatswords weigh 300 pounds and can only be swung with momentum from spinning and supernatural beings.

Father Zera's giant overhead yolo swing getting blocked by Marie twiddling her sword vaguely in it's direction is annoying, but I am sure it will be fixed eventually. Certain attacks should crush certain guards.

If that's happening then it's probably just a bug. Pretty funny though.
