When you begin this game, you get an option of choosing a combat philosophy based on how you want to fight. You can opt to focus all your skills in a single weapon, or else you may go the jack-of-all-blades route. There are 4 weapon classes in this game i.e. daggers that do the least amount of damage but at the same time it is lightweight and can be dual-wielded.
The second is bows that are the only ranged weapons in the game. Next are spears that have a long reach and work well for taking out multiple enemies and the last but not the least are a two-handed broadswords that can inflict heavy damage but at the same time are slow and heavy. You can bring up to 3 different weapons into the battle, and each one will let you perform unique attacks and combos. Once you are in the battle then you can swap weapons on the fly to take advantage of the strengths of each fighting style.
The fighting seams somewhat to be realistic in that you become fatigued as you fight. If you keep performing one strong attack after another then you will get worn out and will not be able to move for couple of moments.
