So I dont understand the focus that hidden blade combat not being in the game is getting. It never made sense to me to begin with. It has been established that not only is the hidden blade meant to be tool for stealth but it is also a complicated and complex set of mechanisms. It seems to me then that it would also be a delicate device that you would want to clash and bash against a bunch of other weapons. On top of that the blade size doesn't really lend it self to combat either, unless you want to fight a swordsman with pocket knife. So can someone please explain why so many people want to be able to use the HIDDEN blade to OPENLY fight.
