Seriously although unrealistic even a jedi night or ninja type directional combat game would be pretty sweet.

Jedi Knight game with these combat mechanics would be nothing short of amazing.

Jedi Knight IV: Never Stop Dreaming

It may be the best melee combat system I've seen so far in a game. Looks fun, quick and quiet simple to learn/difficult to master.

If only it had 3rd person view. When is release?

I dislike stamina, but the mechanics of this game seem solid

The kickstarter campaign is not out yet

chamber attack morphing, nice

I feel like third person wouldn't work so well with the gameplay they are going for. You need to be able to see the weapon and hit/block it precisely with your weapon at the right time, a third person view would be quite bad for that. It works in warband because there are only four directions, and they are quite obvious. The only plus to third person would be more awareness of your surroundings in this game.
IMO.

Overall this game looks like a much more refined version of Warband combat. My wish list is getting very full.... Bannerlord, Mordhau, and possibly Of Kings and Men. So far Mordhau looks the most fun and competitive, but Bannerlord is taking the modding and RPG department. We will see what Of Kings and Men can bring to the table of this staggering bit of competition. (Let's not forget about Kingdom Come also.....)

If anything it looks like Chivalry.

If anything it looks like Chivalry.

Except for one big difference, (actually there are many) two payers can't hit each other and do damage, only one person can deal damage when you both swing. Which is awesome, feels so lame in Chivalry because there's like no reason not to be a huge knight.

This game is NOT Chivalry just because it is a medieval game with good graphics.

To me it looks almost identical but upgraded. I think the devs are Chivalry players anyway.

[Golem]

I think we might be looking at the new CS:GO of medieval melee. Wonder what kind of skins they'll have

Hopefully this will turn out to be decent enough.

He bought me again when he said "we want fights to look like fights, without the endless spinning and backtwisting that is common in some games of this genre."

Also:

BELIEVABLE FIGHTS. A game where fights look believable, Mordhau strikes a balance between gameplay and realism. Ballerinas and circus performers are replaced by carefully designed combat mechanics. We are confident that our system solves most of the common problems of this genre, and is also heaps of fun
