First off, sorry if this is not the right forum - Not sure if this should go under design.

I am curious to work on a medieval fighting game - Either first person, or behind the back cam style - Swords, Shields, Bows etc - Focused on 1 to 1 and maybe small group fights (not sieges).

Now, as inspiration for the feeling of the game - I'm looking for games to play - So far I've come up with For Honor and Chivalry - But looking for recommendations of games to try - Either because you feel they do the fighting real well, or perhaps as a deterrent of what not to do :P

As a side note, my idea requires skill to matter significantly, but contain the concept of better armor and weapons should give you an edge.

thanks!

Some games to check out for how they do combat are -
Mordhau
Mount & Blade: Warband (Bannerlord's is graphically upgraded, but for what you want, it's the same mechanics)
Kingdom Come Deliverance
