Your control over weapons is genuine, as we have crafted a combat system based on the expertise and feedback of Historical European Martial Arts (HEMA) practitioners and sword fencers.

Every story needs an end, and in Half Sword, it often means losing your head - quite literally. As this is a simulation game, death is final…
Be Warned: Half Sword is an extremely violent and gory game. I mean… we do have a Chief Blood Officer. Witness skull-crushing blows, limb decapitations, and gruesome displays of entrails and bloodshed, all intricately tied to the weapon and armor choices of both you and your opponents.

Fun game. Like sword fighting a lot and it's just the right amount of goofy and fun for me.
Absolutely phenomenal physics and design, I recommend a computer designed for gaming for full graphics wowness
This is a tough game for me to review. When it works as intended (which is about 75% of the time), it's a phenomenal sword fighting game that really draws you in. The combat feels gritty and realistic, and especially the sound effects, really sell the idea that this is realistic medieval combat. However, this game is still definitely in early access, and though bugs are uncommon, when bugs do occur, they can be absolutely devastating. Leveling up in the Progression System can already be a solid challenge. But, random bugs (armor failing, weapons caught in the ground, random KOs) can cause your character to straight up die, or fail to resurrect, which can lose tons of progression and be extremely frustrating. Also, many important and useful mechanics are not explained (unless this was recently changed) which means the player suffers a whole lot more than intended just by not knowing the mechanics. For example, I once spent nearly an hour fighting over 70 zombies in the Abyss just to save my character from permanent death and progress loss. Later, I discovered that you can just pay a guy to remove angry souls so that you don't have to fight them in the Abyss. Overall, I've decided that the core experience of the game is just so fun and realistic that it's worth the pain and frustration that comes from the early access experience. That's just my opinion though, hopefully this review can help you decide for yourself.
Demo ist einfach besser manchmal stolpert man und stirbt ganz entspannt wenn man gegen irgend ein gegenstand läuft bricht man sich alles das stechen ist komplett anders auch wenn man es in denn einstellungen ändert wenn man zu hart schwing ist man nicht mehr auf dem gegner fokosiert und man hält einfach nix aus bin bei der demo immer weit nur mit fäusten gekommen und hier irgedwie schaff ich nix mit einem schwert ich werd selber erstmal die demo weiter spielen bis die das game gefixed haben was auch crazy is
