A very long overdue article about all our developments, some releases for our RTX, Co-op, and new mods, plus even more exciting and special news from Ubisoft!
Behind the scenes the modders are cooking new mods for 20 years old game - Dark Messiah of Might and Magic.
Loved the melee in this game. Have been disappointed with every first person sword fighting game ever since. Skyrim came after this and was such a letdown in that regard.
Agreed. Dishonored came close, but also punished you for fighting lethally (which was 90% of your kit) so your melee options were limited to stealth finishers if you wanted the best ending. Mount & Blade was another decent try but I never loved its melee mechanics.
Dark Messiah also had the best spiders ever. It’s been nearly twenty years and nobody’s managed to top its implementation of one of humanity’s primal fears.
Dishonored was fun but not as visceral, also felt way too overpowered. I think I only replayed it once or twice. Mount & Blade is a real challenge but it’s clunky and has no real feedback when landing hits, you just sort of go through them or bounce off. Still, another one of my favourite games though.

Vermintide 2 has fun melee combat IMHO.
