That a lot of surviving paintings/drawings were made long after the events they depict, artists usually were never there first-hand to begin with so they had to use second/third/fourth/etc.-hand information and their imagination to fill in the blanks, historical accuracy was limited to what they knew around themselves so it was often shown completely anachronistically, and that (much like historical depictions today) they were often more interested in showing action and drama and cool visuals over what actually happened.

It has it's quirks I can't argue against that, but it's far better than Skyrim's bugs. There are entire quests centered on the medieval fighting, from unarmed to pole, sword, mace, axe e.t.c. even a tournament for melee and archery. There's chumps, where you have to practice your archery in a tourney against two npc's while shooting at logs traveling down a river.
There are plated up knights on the road looking for a chivalrous fight who will bend the knee if you win.
Plus the armour/ clothing system they have, the combinations you can make really allows you to experiment with a style, both aesthetically and in effectiveness.

Also I think people underestimate how fucking crazy this shit got, they literally had fucking multi-stage rockets that flew in specific arcs, and then would fall over an enemy force, and then a bomb inside of it would detonate on impact with the ground (first pic), outright fucking missiles that let out poison gas and caltrops (second pic), and flamethowers slapped on lances (third pic),
For the first image
>The body [of the bird] is made of [fine] bamboo laths forming an elongated basketwork, in size and shape like a chicken, weight over a catty [0.6 kg]. It has paper glued over to strengthen it, and it is filled with explosive gunpowder. All is sealed up using more paper, with head and tail fixed on before and behind, and the two wings mailed firmly on both sides, so that it looks like a flying crown.
Under each wing there are two [slanting] rockets. The fourfold fuse, connected with the rockets [and about a foot long], is put through a hole drilled on the back. When in use, this is lit first.
>[…]
>The bird flies away more than 1000 ft, and when it eventually falls to the ground, the explosive gunpowder in the cavity of the bird is lit, and the flash can be seen miles away. This weapon is used agains enemy encampments to burn them, but also at sea to set ships aflame. It should never fail to bring victory.
For the second:
>There is another winged rocket-bomb, or rather grenade, in the Wu Pei Chih, the 'free-flying enemy-pounding thunder-crash bomb.' A rocket-tube is contrived within the body of it, and when the wind is favourable the fuse is lit, whereupon it flies over to the enemy. Then the rocket-composition is nearly burnt out, the charge automatically ignited, releasing poisonous and irritating smoke as well as water calthrops the thorns of which are tipped with tiger-poison. The whole thing is no more than 3.5 in. in diameter, made of dozens of layers of oiled paper, but on each side it has artificial wind-borne wings which will take it, in suitable conditions, right over a city wall."

Changes since launch include new game modes, dedicated servers, increased Steel gain, complete reworks of Kensei, Berserker and Conqueror, harsh rebalancing of gear stats in 4v4 modes so they're tiny little buffs at best and no longer give you instant revenge - and several critical bug fixes.
>>14491949
The Starter Edition is similar to the Rainbow 6 Siege version but way more lenient.
>You get Warden, Kensei and Raider
>You get +3 additional characters to play as based on your faction choice between Knights, Vikings and Samurai
>These +3 characters are playable, but not customizable until you pay 8K steel for each
>Every other vanilla character is fully unlocked for 8K steel
>Season Pass characters are 15K
In For Honor this isn't actually too bad, because unlike in Siege, characters aren't limited to one per team in 99% of modes, and 8K steel is farmable by just playing casually an hour a day and completing your orders. You'll have 8K within a week at the longest.

Danes are a good call, and while I love the idea of the Sikh and the Tlingit (Who made some really fucking rad weapons and armor out of metal they traded with europeans for, and armor out of wooden pieces that was basically like mail/plate armor but out of coins and wooden blocks), neither are really medieval: Sikhism was only founded in the 1500's, and the Tlingit may not have existed in the medivial period.
The Zulu and other native americans suffer from that problem as well. I included the Aztec and Inca empire because they DID exist in the medieval era (albiet the latter half), both having their captials founded in the 1300's; and for that mattter, had actual formal armies that fought in formation, used standards; with rank structures and such, as well as full state governments, and as such really weren't socially/organizationally that different from eurasian medivial soldiers aside from using stone/bronze instead of iron and steel.
> I see a lot of 2D fighters that use Light, Medium, Heavy attack buttons and similar but never something along the lines of Horizontal, Vertical, and Jab.
Most fighting games have an attack height system: generally speaking, there are overheads, mids, and lows (sometimes also highs), with lows bypassing sttanding block, and overrheads bypassing crouching block. As an example of an exception, Pokken doesn't have height based blocking at all, and instead has attack heights matter for attacks being able to pass under or over each otther, or you being able to duck or dodge over moves oof certain heights.
I imagine a game like this would have to work like a combination of those 2 suystems, where you have height based blocking, but 1 block for each attack height

*medieval societies, as their government/political/social complexity and citiy sizes were pretty comparable as well, not just their miltiaries. actually if anything their militaries would be behind a bit, (vs the other stuff being more on par) they were more like bronze/iron age armies then medieval ones, but due to geographical limitations there wasn't much they realistically could have done too get further anyways as far as military complexity.
Still, point being, they existed in the medivial period and had formal armies, so they are worth includiing as much as asian or middle eastern soldiers.

Peacekeeper is still the same, but the next major thing to be balanced is back dashing while out of stamina. Hopefully it's within the next month alongside the conpletely new training mode.
Lawbringer is S tier in 4v4 modes thanks to his bombs, and because of parrying no longer netting guaranteed guardbreaks, Lawbringer is now the parry king. That's thanks to heavy parries guaranteeing an impale which guarantees a top heavy if they hit a wall, and a top unblockable on parry if you parry a light.
