Dual wielding of shields would be sort of messy. I assume that would block the most part of your screen, you would barely be able to see.My approach is similar to the one of the OP. Stealth-oriented with bow and daggers but probably without any magic whatsoever. I am not sure how one would classify my other character. A mage, for sure, but other than that? Maybe he’ll have a staff but he’s definitely not going to swing any conventional weapons. A shield might work, too. Heh, that reminds me ... can you double-wield shields xD ?
Yeah, like if you were just trying to run past enemies whilst doing a long task, it may be helpful for better protection.The player would probably resort to looking towards the ground to see over their shields half the time, lol. That option sounds cool, although not very useful.. unless you were just trying to survive. xD
Now what would be cool would be if shields got visually damaged/dented.. wooden ones even shattered.
