At first I wasn't sure what to think. When I first started to play it was a bit frustrating to learn the new kind of a game system...but oh boy was it worth it!!! Absolutely new kind of fighting system that is quite the challenge to start off with, but once you overcome the frustration of not being able to just click-click-click when fighting and having to time your blows accurately as well as where and when to strike is absolute brilliance! I shamefully will admit that I used speed cheats to get fast from place to place as well as infinite health so I'd be able to overcome every obstacle without having to think too much about loading a previous game and being able to enjoy the store more, but after finishing it I deeply regret having skipped on this part of immersion for the game. Even so, combat could be challenging and even though you are level 20 with good proficiency with weapong, you'll have a tough time rushing into combat with 3 good fighters and may very well lose if you don't think strategically enough. The game also has tons of historical information for history geeks like me and I've now learned way more of this time in medieval Europe than I ever knew before. The only comment I have about the game is that the vast majority of quests you undertake have no time limit and sometimes you'll accept a mission without it being clear enough that it will fail after a certain amount of time. Maybe somekind of a red marker on the listing with a countdown timer or something would be great. I clocked 150 hours WITH the speed hack and godmode, so you are in for days and days of amazing good fun for this game! Can't wait for Warhorse Studios to make a new game as they are indeed incredibly talented and they have gained a new fan in me!
