What caused me the frustration is I attacked a guy with a left, he blocked, then I threw a right at him, his block didn't change and he barely turned and it blocked.
Hell, I'm not even sure he turned at all.
If you miss a block, why should you not be punished with damage?
It makes me feel...powerless. Two of my swings are blocked with one block, an overhead misses, and a stab glances.
Yet weapons bend around my shield?
