Arena Duels with other Knights?

[MF GOON]

So Ive been playing KCD consistently and I occasionally fight Knights waiting on the road, and this made me wonder if there are arenas to fight knights and if not so should they be added? Whats your opinion?

Hopefully that is something they plan to add in the future. It would be a lot of fun. Maybe some sort of tournament. Jousting would also be pretty awesome.

Personally, i'd steer away from jousting, unless it's a quest-related thing. A bit of an immersion break to make it feel like low-fi fantasy.

Though adding additional knights to combat rights (maybe other students, or squires, knights, masters) would be great. But i have no issues as it is.

Not arguing just curious. How would jousting be an immersion breaker?

Time period wise, it's a little late for it (still happened though of course, It didn't die off until the late 16th century) And wasn't that popular to begin with... It was used as a judicial combat sport mainly by noble born people.

Also just because Jousting is cliche for meddieval fantasy? I feel like implicating it would be have to be a story-related event.. and not just a random everyday activity you can go though.

Again, i'm okay with it. but i'd personally like it if it was strictly quest/story related.

Lets say you could meet a Trainer that can spar with you and just have duels for Groschen and it would be like a duel with a Knight on the road just that you dont get anything from it exept the skills that would be added through fighting and you would get healed after the fight

[MF GOON]

I personally just would like to be able to Duel/spar with someone in my spare time in KCD without having to search for some knight on the road

[MF GOON]

Per say a Sword fighting school or something like that

[MF GOON]

But this game wants to be as accurate as possible so there is a limit to what is possible

A fight club where you do unarmed combat and more 'unarmed' moveset would be nice.

For instance left and right direction can be swings, lower direction attacks are uppercut and high attacks are slams.

You can use heavy or light variations of each direction, and maybe kicking can be applied instead of being used with F.

Would be nice if Kicks can be utilized in sword combat though to quicky 'stun' a enemy if they are keen on blocking attacks.

If you just want dueling on demand, find the wandering knight on the road you wish to duel. Save after you get down off of your horse and stand next to him.

Now you can duel whenever you want without having to hunt him down. Just remember which save it was and don't ever delete it or write over it. Feel free to update if you significantly develop your gear to the point that you would rather practice with your new loadout.
