This game has become my favorite,and im so excited to see this game is getting better.Btw have few advices:
Attack should cost more stamina,to make fighters think more before taking a move,instead of standing there and spin your weapon around. Heavier weapons should deal more damage but cost more stamina.
More armor style
Now everyone just wearing the same crusader armor set,because it has the highest defence.I think as a medieval fighting game,everyone should have more style of armor instead of just wearing the same one. There are 2 possible solutions:
1.Armor transform system,allows player to transform one armor's looking into another
2. Add more style of armor,for example:more chainmail,or do the whole "Viking style",maybe even Eastern style
If you do so,you can add a "Armor level",in the same level armor have same defense but different looking.
I'm eager to see in online battle every player can wear their own style of armor.
And the higher defence the armor have,the heavier it is(slower move speed and increase a little weapon weight),so the light armors could be useful too.
Oh,and 2-handed weapon please!
Like the big axes in game,it's difficult to use in one hand.Maybe add a 2-hand system, to reduce the weight of the weapon. Character's both hands hold one weapon would be so cool and then you can make so much more weapon like zweihander,greathammer,glaive,spear.
At last,i hope different kinds of weapons can have their own special effects.
1.Axe cost more stamina to attack,but youcan deal some damage through the shield,and when you block an axe,it can still deal some stamina damage to you.
2.Hammer and mace cost more stamina to attack,but youcan deal more damage against the armoured enemy ,and when you hit the head of the enemy who's wearing heavy helmet,you can deal much more damage and make your enemy dizzy for like 3 seconds.(when dizzy,character is hard to control and make weapon heavier,and attack cost more stamina)
I hope my advice can help you make this game better!
