First off, this is a great game. I love it, but there are a few things which I have to mention that you should know before you buy it.

1. It has a steep learning curve.

This game is everything else than easy, even if it looks like it. You'll be killed over and over again loosing fight after fight with little to no idea how you lost. But if you are someone how likes such things this won't be a problem to you and you'll be rewarded with good KDs and a lot off kills if you manage to learn how this game works.

2. Bad balancing.

For example Horses. It doesn't take hundreds of hours of game expeirence to be good with them, actually it's the opposite. Every newbie can be good with a horse. They are way too mobile and everything you carry will one hit every enemy you see, even your fists can one hit an opponent if you manage to hit him. They horse itself can also damage you if you get too close when it has accelerated enough, interrupting any attack from you thus making it way too hard to kill someone on a horse since only the horse has to hit you and you're stunned with no protection from you the horseriders swing/stab. All that meaning that the horserider needs little skill to kill you, while you need a ton of skill and experience to kill the horserider, so it's better to just avoid them. Another example is a weapon which will one hit you everytime as long as it hits your head. You only need to make one mistake and your dead, while (depending on your weapon), our enemy needs to make 2 or 3 mistaked to be killed, thus making that matchup unfair from the start.

3. The extremely toxic community.

You will be insulted in every possible way pretty much every second game. But if you can ignore that you'll have no issues with that.

4. Team Damage.

This game has friendly fire. This will lead to many deaths and you maybe loosing deserved kills because one of your teammates decides to horizontally swing at you and you enemy, eventually killing you, ruining your KD. You can try to votekick people, and if their team damage is above 10%, that person will mostly be kicked, but be aware that that can also be used against you anytime, with or without reason, what is also a part of the toxic community.

These are the four main points you need to know before buying it. If you can accept these things then great, you'll have a lot of fun waiting for you. As I said, this is a great game at it's core and a lot of fun, however if you're not okay with these things this game isn't for you and you shouldn't buy it.
