Knight's Path: The Tournament - Medieval RPG with challenging action combat (medieval RPG Sekiro)

[Spike]

Hello Codex. Discovered this from a Click4Gameplay video, that valiant youtube slav. Mix of Gothic + Sekiro. There is a 2-3 hour prologue of sorts to get a taste of combat. The full game is in development and is going to be an "open world medieval RPG" with "challenging combat" and "an immersive progression system". I guess this prologue has a little story too. I have not had a chance to play it but looks neat and I am looking forward to getting a moment maybe this weekend to do so. Maybe another fitting combination would be "Kingdom Come + Sekiro"...

The video in question:

Remarkable level of polish for what looks like a vertical slice, hope they find a publisher.

Looks relatively polished for indie work. I personally wish the movesets were more realistic instead of big anime swings, but whatev.

Something to keep an eye on.

Just finished the demo. It's great.

The combat can be improved but it has potential and it's fun.

Knight's Path: The Tournament is a short (2-3 hour long) medieval RPG featuring challenging combat, an immersive progression system, and a nice little story. It serves both as an announcement and a teaser for the forthcoming open-world RPG Knight's Path, which is currently in active development.

They have no steam page for the actual game.

looks good fr, but those anime swings on realistic armor, weapons and architecture is a bit off putting. but i genuinely wishing the devs best of luck.

Tried the demo, looks pretty cool. Everything's very basic of course, but the fundamentals seems solid.

Agreed that I dislike the big anime moves, especially since everything else is set up to be a gritty, realistic medieval setting. But I'm sure the anime moves are there for readiblity. It's harder to implement HEMA-style stuff in a more arcade-y game like this. And also probably to draw in the Dark Souls fanbase.

I hope the voice acting is a placeholder right now. Sounds like AI or really machine-like.

Also it seems like it might be really short? Not sure how big the scope of the game is.

It was just a teaser ... probably to get some real feedback before starting development.

The thing is: that combat + Gothic quests = huge potential.

Maybe having more ornate armor doesn't provide any practical combat benefits, but allows you to woo the wenches more effectively?



Lol unlikely, probably stat-based linear progression if the demo is anything to go by.

Lets the enemy know they shouldn't kill you but try to ransom you.

Based toro following up with this game when I haven't been. Pleasantly surprised to see an update, very nice.
