One major option in For Honor is the act of being baddass
the emoes before and after a duel , the way you earned your victory tour strategy
We should add to that note ,
I love the maps with accesible structures such as the grapling hook lines , and huge crossbow or opening bridges
overall the option of using your enviorment as part of the game is incredible itself the geyser?? WOW
more of this could be overwhelming in a good way ,
how about an earthquake mid canyon? Rocks rolling towards us or falling from the sky , or ground that's starting to crack and aventually changes , shifts from side to side
how about a waterfall in the middle of the map? you can't see the other side until you go through , the closer you're to it , the greater the risk of a surprise attack
also the badass scenario of walking through it!!!
maybe a volcano eruption? keeping away from the lava flow , which maybe even affects the levels size
Jungles with wildlife?
being aware of wolves?
suiddenly both you and your opponent need to fight back to back if you want to survive before you continure the fight
or a wave of rhinos coming towards you that suddenly sepperates you from your opponent and you lose sight until the wave passes through
Maybe we can dive into mythological concepts and have a certain mode which inculdes DRAGONS or other creatures for the fantasy vibe - it's kinda the setting
OMG OMG How about a map in which it's total darkness (or just very darkened) and raining!!! and only when there's a thunder , it lights up , for you to see your opponent's location and actions
maybe a maze as a playground? maybe it's a living maze that shifts?
Everyone will also be very happy to have more characters developed , how about one that's using a whip? or scythe!
maybe add a pet system in which you can tame a beast of your choice after a certain level? based on a faction?
maybe have a character who's a beast master??
we also need a bare-handed - maybe he's a dancer in his style?
How about weapon's ornament for custiomization?
There are so many possibilities along this new fighting mechanics
