Chivalry 2 Reviews
Chivalry II is great fun when it works. Its combat is simple to learn and less simple to master, but incredibly rewarding no matter your skill level. The new 64-player matches and objective-based modes ensure intense, prolonged battles, and the variety in the classes will keep you motivated to grind for that next weapon. But the lack of variety in the maps and subclass abilities, and the overwhelming connection issues, make the game more frustrating than it should be.
Melee mastery with a side of screaming.
Chivalry 2 is an enjoyable experience. The fun is omnipresent, and you can feel the mastery of your character and your weapon during all your progression. Unfortunately, many bugs (completely broken social system and multiple crashes) destroy the experience. Wait for a patch.

Ultimately, I’ve had a blast with Chivalry 2. It improves upon every single aspect of the original game, and feels more stable and polished than Chivalry ever did. There is some jankiness to the game (I’m not sure if the aforementioned self-catapulting is actually supposed to be an option), but it doesn’t take away from the fantastic combat. Getting a kill never gets old, battles are unpredictable and memorable, and there are seemingly endless ways to take down your foes.
Chivalry 2 represents the natural continuation of a creative journey that opened more than a decade ago, when the Torn Banner Studios saga was nothing more than a sensational mod for Half-Life 2.

The sequel to the classic is indeed worthy in most ways, and Chivalry II is a much needed upgrade to the original game. Combat has a lot going on, and while many players will behave as non-chivalrous bastards, there is a good amount of fun to be found on the medieval battlefields of Chivalry II.
As is the case with many good multiplayer games, the game itself is well made, but mileage may vary with your actual experience playing it. Mechanically, I was impressed with the depth and breadth of everything that you get to play with. Combat itself is incredibly detailed, and the capabilities to have such a compelling game in a crowd of warring factions is impressive. However, the chaos of the battlefield may be a dealbreaker for you; you may find it compelling, or you may find it frustrating. At best I can say it is part of Chivalry 2’s charm, but I’m not able to say that I always appreciated it. Regardless, the specific flavour of madness it provides makes for a fun, violent time, even amongst the varying degrees of chaos.
While the content is short sighted with Chivalry 2, the improvements over its predecessor make it a much better experience.
Whether you're slicing off heads as a valiant knight or picking off clueless squires as an archer, Chivalry 2 has it all. This medieval multiplayer slasher has hours of gory and epic fun, with a dash of silliness. The coming months will decide if the game will truly achieve its potential.
Chivalry II is an intriguing and fun step ahead for Torn Banner Studios.

Martin drew his own ideas from The War of the Roses, Sir David's main brouhaha.
First and foremost, Chivalry 2 is an excellent medieval fighting game. The combat system is incredibly rewarding and nuanced, with a wide array of weapons
Chivalry 2 is a great game if you know what you’re getting into. It's not the next big hit, but boy is it fun when you need to get out some frustration and have a good laugh.
Chivalry 2 is a fantastic multiplayer game that is consistently pumping out updates with a pretty thriving community of players. There is a fairly steep learning curve, but it has been out long enough at this point that if you feel yourself tilting, just do a quick Youtube search for “Chivalry 2 combat tips” and it will probably clear up a lot of that brain fog. What most of it boils down to, is practice. You’ll die-a lot. But, you’ll also learn from those deaths and you’ll eventually get better. Chivalry 2’s development path is healthy and thriving since its developers have their fingers on the pulse of the player base, so if you missed the hype train and are looking for a game that will give you the most bang for your buck without a huge time commitment, look no further than Chivalry 2.
This is a game in which you can lose an arm and still keep on fighting, insisting that it’s just a scratch until you inevitably end up laying motionless on the floor, just like all the other unfortunate dead. It should be horrifying, really, but that’s Chivalry II‘s greatest achievement; it’s so well put together that such moments can only be considered a bloody spectacle.
I've spent a total of ten hours with Chivalry 2, including the beta version, and I still don't have enough. It's a decent, online story that offers something different every time. Something that makes you never get bored.
