Yeah I played it a few months ago before it died in Aus, will try again when it's released. It's just a more fleshed out Chivalry; if you didn't like Chivalry you definitely won't like this. The meta is all about "dragging" which is essentially decelerating your attacks to mess up your opponent's parry timing (you can't just hold blocks like in warband). The gameplay looks and feels VERY autistic even compared to warband, so I doubt it will appeal to the masses much, but it is kinda fun and appears to have a reasonable skill ceiling. I can see myself playing casually if it's released before bonerlord
