    One thing i love so much about FH are the stances, and how they change depending on what direction youre blocking, and that a lot of them actually make sense or are realistic from a martial arts standpoint. Most unique fighting game ever.
    Im gonna miss Orochi's neutral stance but this change needed to come to the game i guess especially since the CCU changed everything. Also, Orochis old right side guard looked cooler than the new one. His old one looked way more Kendo/Samurai-like

  • @Ikarus568
    @Ikarus568 Год назад +82

    As much of a great change this is, the neutral stance held some of those heroes' identity. I wish there was a way to keep it. Like, you still start on neutral stance and when you double tap the feint button without attacking it puts you back into neutral too so it hides your guard before your next attack, then it'll keep the guard stance after the attack.
    Zerk, PK and Roach feel weird now IMO.

      have often wondered what universal “down guard” inputs for assassin’s to access the neutral pose from would feel like. Could be just for style/hiding your stance, or could be used to access deflects (trade s/ability to dodge attack for deflect frames, letting them stay strong counter options without the ability to perform them on accident

    It really does show that For Honor was designed as a non-fighting game originally. There's been so many unnecessary flourishes with animations that have negatively impacted gameplay, but now that its trying to deliver a focused experience, people have just gotten so used to having these cherries on top of everything. Personally I'm not really missing the animations but I know why people would.
    I really wish the game came out closer to the state it's in, design-wise, these days. Seriously, there was a point where ALL inputs were gridlocked to 100ms intervals. Nobody seems to remember that. For Honor could've been so much more well received from the start with even just dedicated servers.

  • @serafimb2319
    @serafimb2319 Год назад +1

    I have advocated for them to remove reflex guard for years, as have millions of others. Especially because it's called REFLEX guard while the devs changed the game bit by bit "to make it more read based that reflex based". Especially for team fights it plainly sucked. So it obvious it needed to go,
    HOWEVER
    i will miss the neutral stance animation wise. It would not have been hard to make the character model go to the neutral animation after a second, just as before, only have the guard widget and therefore your guard stay on top. The guard arrow stays visible, but you charavter goes to the previous neutral animation.
