Very detailed and deep medieval combat. The combat was so deep it actually used to be a problem, since most players played for years and became extremely good so new players couldn't compete. However, it was recently made free on epic which brought a ton of new players and evened out the playing field.
Its main competitor is Chivalry 2, which is basically a more arcadey version of it. Chivalry 2 is a bit more realistic because you can hold a blocking stance while in Mordhau you can only block for a second. However, I understand the purpose of this is to make the Mordhau combat more deep by allowing you to try to trick people into blocking.
