War of the Roses?
How is this game compared to War of the Roses? Does it have the same accurate hit boxes and play style or is it more arcady like chivalry?

Combat is very arcadey, and I don't mean that in a bad way necessarily. As a WotR vet, however, this was hard to adjust to. I still am bummed that this isn't like WotR. In that game, we didn't have swords cutting through plate, maile, and gambeson like they were pieces of paper, but in this game, you can pick up a 2h sword or axe and chop 5 heads off in one swing. WotR definitely had more realistic combat compared to this and Chiv.

All of this to say this: If you're looking for a game that's more like WotR, I do not recommend this, unless you're okay with Chivalry style gameplay. Hitboxes in this game are ridiculous. Sometimes, my weapon goes through my enemy, whether it be side swing or stabs. And sometimes you think you're in range and you think you're about to get a kill, but apparently you're like 100000000000 steps away or too close to your enemy.

Yeah unfortunately this game isn't a replacement for WotR. :(
