ok, I have to leave a review, now!!
I can't believe this!!
It feels like the Developers actally like their game, and enjoy it themselves!!
Like, "oh, another new mechanic", and "again something new"...
I had to restart (savegame lost), so I wasn't quite happy, but frick me! The ranged combat alone...
When u shoot ur arrow, and nail a, still living, zombie against a wall...hilarious!!

The combat feels even more realistic than blade&sorcery (personal opinion of a reenactment viking)
For example: one of the most famous sword fighting techniques, from the old "Fechtbücher", the Mordhau, isn't just doable, but the most effective way to fight skeletons, with a sword. (Have to confirm it for plate armour)

When "Blade&Sorcery" is "Skyrim", then "Hellsplit: Arena" is "Kingom Come Deliverance".
(most fencing techniques won't work in B&S, because of the way the sowrds r handled...

In modern terms, it would be "parry 5, and riposte"
So if u like to fight, like a true swordsman, this is the way to go!!
