For some who are looking for something a little different, this game is one. Came out in August, and works on the same principles such as For Honour, in that the main focus is a complex fighting system online. But unlike For Honour, there is no directional blocking... the game plays much like Dark Souls, where you create  a character and go into a small world where you can encounter both NPCs and other players. There are three styles to choose from out of the box, and attacks are learned by simply blocking them a certain amount of times. I haven't tried this game yet personally... but it looks like a possibly playable one if not completely accessible as For Honor's directional blocking system, which was the one thing stopping it from being accessible, is not present here. Guarding is traditional, and there are perries and dodges as well, according to your style. Just thought I'd share this in case anyone else might be curious like me. The game is for ps4, xbox1 and pc. First impresions make it sound a little confusing because there's very little voie work, but it can probably be gotten used to... and the combat seems to be more about timing than blazing fast combos.

Yeah, same here. But I'm thinking that on the otherhand, there are no objectives or tasks to complete... so it may be possible.

Sounds interesting. I don't think leveling up, managing skills etc. would be accessible. You can get the weapon knocked out of the hands, and I think it will be challenging to find it and pick it up again.
Here is a great review of the game:

They're in menus... which means they are doable if someone has the patience to actually try the game out and map the menus. People have done it with other games including UFC 2, Odin Sphere, etc, so there's no reason this game shouldn't be the same. It's unfortunate people discard games simply because the menus are too big or too complicated. Weapons being knocked out of the hand may complicate things, yes. But I'm still thinking this game could potentially be a possibility... it would be good if someone could tweet the developers about possible accesibility for the pc version as they are an indie team and might be more open to the idea. I don't use twitter, which is the problem. big_smile

In a similar vein, here's another MOBA... King of Wushu. This one probably definitely isn't playable, but the sounds and music are great... a real martial arts themed game! An accessible MOBA is still a game that I would love to see.
