Become the champion of the Arena by besting your opponents in various brawls and tournaments. Prepare for an unparalleled combat experience where your every move matters. All animations and maneuvers are meticulously designed with a strong foundation in realism.
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.

Reviews
I bought this first before the optimization and it ran so bad, but after the update earlier this summer it runs better than the demo did. The fighting feels smooth and satisfying. The damage model is amazing, maces crunch bones, swords can be used with actual skill to disable enemies and the gore is perfectly brutal. And now we have Willie back.

игра хорошая, увлекательна и затягивающая. Но, беды есть: 1 - оптимизация, в некоторых моментах игра лагает так что невозможно играть. да, комп у меня не вау, но и графика игры не киберпанк. 2 - баги. Постоянные смерти вообще не пойми от чего, ломание костей при спавне в бездне и зомби убиваеющие укусом в лицо сквозь забрало. Но, игра стоит своих денег, она подарила мне за эти 10 часов незабываемые ощущения. В общем я бы рекомендовал покупать игру при официальном выходе игры
this is my go to "throw it on on and kill a couple hours" type game. like so many other reviews say, there are sometimes long periods where the game isn't updated, but that's because the devs are genuinely listening and applying player feedback into a quality update. if you're looking for a fun game that is also just a sound early access investment, you can't go wrong with half sword.
One of the best medieval fighting games I have played.
despite a rough beta and Demo it has improved drastically. The constant dev communication and patches that fix player complaints really do make it worth the money now more then ever.
All the fun keeps getting patched out of the game
love. but please balance abyss
