I had high hopes for this game. No other game comes close to this kind of sword fighting multiplayer genre. To be able to stand in the midst of the battlefield and lock eyes with your opponent. You and me. Mano a mano. Time to test my skills, and see if my training paid off! We fight. And the battle is almost over. I'm close to chopping this persons head off, I can feel it, I can almost taste it. One more parry and a heavy attack and......... what's this? A blade in my side? What just happened? Who is this? Someone else interrupted my duel? And now, a third enemy joins the fight! How dare they?
HAVE THEY NO HONOR?
No... they don't give sh**... And why is that? Because there is no penalty for doing this.
Is this your fault Ubisoft? No not really. You can't control the many ******bags out there. But at least you could make some kind of penalty for interrupting something as sacred as a 1on1 duel to the death!! Like a decrease in XP for every time you interrupt a duel. Or penalty to their renown. Or deleting their PSN account. Hack their bank account and empty it! Banish their souls to the depths of hell! Okay, that's too much.. Just do something!
Have you watched the cinematic intro movie to the game, plays every time you start the game up if you wait for it ...
Viking, wants some water. Samurai wants some water as well. Samurai draws a line in the ground with his sword. 'This water is mine!' Viking gets ready for a duel to settle the matter ... and ...
HELLO2U WARDEN LADY!
No more honourable duel.
The game is not about fighting with honour.
