Totally unplayable.

Can't go into fullscreen (for some reason, windowed mode demands an extra GB of GPU memory), it seems to be locked to 4K (the setting is greyed out), the single player is absent and I can't actually connect to a multiplayer match. Even for a beta, this is pathetic, but it goes deeper than that.

I play a lot of Mount and Blade (old game and clunky, but I love it) and this seems to be trying to mash its combat style with that of literally any third-person action game but without the breadth of M&B or the depth of an actual action game.

The UI is almost incomprehensible, and on my second attempt to play it just now I didn't even bother to try and get into a match because the game opens with a full minute of swords flying around and borders shifting before cutting to some menu about contracts, apparently unaware that I haven't played a single game yet and therefore don't have a clue what that means or any reason to care.

It may be that there is more depth to the combat than I experienced and maybe the UI is providing info I don't even know I need yet, but if that's the case it's only because I COULDN'T PLAY ANYTHING PAST THE TUTORIAL.

Oh also: the characters are so visually overdesigned and framerates so unstable I can't even tell when dodges and attacks start or finish.
