Thanks for playing. I've actually never played For Honor but I've heard a lot of comparisons. The blade clash mechanics were actually inspired by Hollow Knight, believe it or not.
Ah, this makes more sense. I wasn't familiar with Hollow Knight & Blasphemous until very recently (after I first played this) in order to notice. What made me think of For Honor was the way the timing of the defence ones worked in order to successfully parry/evade. If you haven't checked it out, a few videos of it may provide some inspiration for future addons.
