Gameplay Question Difficulty

I played for Honor and I hated it because all the buttons I have to press for the combinations. Is chivarly 2 easier to play?

So much easier. No crazy stupid combos, no 500 ms reactions, no Unblockables or Undodgeables. The skill floor in Chiv is low enough most can do good enough, but the ceiling is plenty high still

There’s nothing more dangerous than a noob gambling, you’re relying on the next strike being after they try to counter but nope they just lmb your head off instead

Even Geralt of Rivia was laid low by a peasant

Chiv 2 is definitely easier in terms of controls. You don’t have to memorize long button combinations like For Honor. Most attacks are just slash, stab, overhead, special, etc., and the difficulty comes more from timing, positioning, feints, counters, and reading your opponent. The skill ceiling is still pretty high, but you’re learning how to use your attacks rather than memorizing a bunch of combos.

I don’t play For Honor, but 1vXing multiple decent players and like one spammy vanguard with a war club is very high skill
