Why don't more people play Mordhau?

It's a clunky indie game with a high skill ceiling and little content

High skill ceiling is one of its strengths.

literally this, I have fun playing it for 20 minutes to an hour every few months. but holy fuck the skill ceiling is autismal as all fuck. and there is no fuckin content.

cant even voice chat in game, boring as fuck

I got my fair share in Chivalry

Yeah but the majority of people couldn't care less about being good at a game and just want to have fun. Mordhau will satiate that purpose for maybe 10 hours and then the novelty wears off and you go find something else that's fun to play. That just leaves autismos who play for hundreds or thousands of hours who shit on the few people who want to play casually further reducing the number of people playing.

No voice chat is one of its strengths

It's a meme game (not that that's a bad thing) with too small dev team to churn out much content that's also inside of a very niche genre. Of course it's not going to remain super popular, and this is coming from somebody who enjoyed it quite a bit.

I suppose you're right. Quality over quantity as they say. The game does not have mass-appeal, and I really like the community. It would probably have a negative impact on my gameplay experience of it became too massively popular.

>dude hundreds of weapons lol
>oh but if you want to be good you can only use 3 of them

A skilled player can play well with anything

Games like these always devolve into a handful of meta builds that railroad new players or filter them out of the game. Just like Chiv, Mordhau was only legitimately fun for the first month or so when the majority of players were still clueless about the finer details/mechanics of the game.

Jank as fuck

You say that because youre weak, and the weak have no voice

Git gud, pleb.

Mordhau and Chivalry are both garbage. They lose the novelty real fast and barely has any content to keep it afloat.

Only autists keep playing these games

I only used the billhook for all 120 or so hours I played, fuck you tryhards.

>swing poleaxe downwards
>look slightly below their ribs
>hits them faster than a rapier
The game died when they released Castillo

Billhook is one of the better weapons in the game though. It's great in both larger team fights and duels.

Had a blast with this game when it came out, but there is really not a whole lot of depth to the game. The 1v1 doesn't quite have a solid fighting game feel to it and the larger battles don't lend themselves to any particular strategy, rather just running around hacking until one side wins. To me, its akin to Mario Party, a fun game to dick around in and have some fun, but doesn't really have any mechanics that are worth dedicating time into.

Having said that, it is a fun game that I pick up to play once every few months while drinking with my boys.

i dropped it because it started crashing

yup, and on top of small map selection, dogshit map balancing, and no mod support, the game died rather quickly.

this exactly
what's the point in playing if every game will be dominated by the same 4 or so maulfags doing the objectively most efficient plays every game

amen, the first month of mordhau was the fucking best, it all went downhill from there

Yeah bro the game is so dead I can find full invasion and duel servers
Zoomies have the most warped understanding of "dead"
It ONLY has 4000 players wtf fortnite has way more

It went from 60k to 5k, I'd say thats a substantial drop in player numbers

>small map selection
This one really killed it for me, playing the same 5 maps over and over isn't terribly involving, especially when there are a few maps that suck. Give the community access to a map editor or something, let the community make some damn content if you don't want to.

>couldn't care less about being good at a game
>i can only have fun when i'm the one winning
>therefore i care about being good at the game
uh... whatever you say mentally ill nigger

>maulfags
meme weapon

>most efficient
it is a meme weapon. you can literally run from the attack that it wont reach you. i bet you also left a negative review for that game full of nonsense and diarrhea

what are you even smoking

>billhook
lol is that supposed to be bad

>high skill ceiling
yeah gambling is highly competitive

see complete assholes like yourself are why other people avoid your game with a 10 foot barge pole

I never said I couldn't care less about being good at the game, I'm one of the autismos who have hundreds of hours in it. It's just I can empathize with the players who aren't autismos who couldn't care less and just want to have fun. Mordhau is a good sandbox-y game but the sandbox is contrasted with the high skill ceiling.

its not approachable
if you get into a game now the playerbase has whittled more deeply into people who only play mordhau
you run into a battle with a guy who can faint you and dodge and parry all your shit so theres no progression, you just play for 15 minutes to stay as bad as you were when you started

>votekick user he's putting beartraps in spawn
