I’m reading through the reddit AMA about the delay here’s what I’ve gathered: VFX map and gore optimization is the reason for the delay, there are “a couple” more issues, gauntlet free and abyss will still be there but revamped, “the new abyss is crazy”, no open world, there will be new modes for fighting, ea could be as late as march 31, there are changes to combat mechanics, there is new music, no VR planned, DLSS is confirmed, there is a trailer that will be shown (not in december), flails are confirmed, killing enemies will have consequences, no rocks

There will also be a bit of a story. We don’t really know what the consequences of killing are, but it’ll probably just make the gameplay more interesting or difficult

I dont know exactly. it appears in Talhoffer's personal manuscript from 1459 on the rules of judicial dueling, but Im not an expert on HRE laws in the 15th century, and I dont know of any other source for these supposed rules

why is it that i can beat the shit out of this guy with an axe without hurting him and then step on his scythe and die instantly
wicked depot
river sparrow
i just got my leg cut off with the flat side of the axe
there is a lot of bullshit in the game
wicked depot
Sadly you couldnt see it happen
clever parrot
watch out he might kill you
sturdy jolt
The scythe is pretty absurd
But the axe not hurting them is a matter of edge alignment. When you prepare your swing, perhaps do it a little slower and wait for the weapon to even out a little before starting the swing. The preparation for the swing is where the accuracy and most of the edge alignment comes from
clever parrot
problem is sometimes i dont have time to line it up, like im face to face with this guy
i switch grips so im holding it with both hands and its like im just shaving him with it
river sparrow
maybe this is edge alignment….
sturdy jolt
Keeping distance is a pretty important skill in this game. The scythe boss is really hard to hit without getting trapped in his weapon

you could be hitting them with the handle or the underside of the axe head
