Dash and Shield Bash discussion thread (upcoming feature)

In my opinion, a shield bash shouldn't be a dash + bashing action. I believe this should be a true bash with your shield with minimal positional movement.
On the idea of adding new actions, (I believe) many players would probably be unable to cope with extra buttons and things due to not having a gaming mouse with extra buttons, or not wanting to have to press extra buttons on the keyboard. Part of SK's selling point is its simplicity of controls and being (in my opinion) a relaxing game. By adding this functionality, I'd feel left out if I was not using it. If OOO can work around this problem, there's no reason not to widen gameplay.

Uh... do you want a Vanaduke fight that only uses Shield bashes, or do you want to only Shield Bash any fight with Vanaduke?

You are so terribly right.
Right now I even have a few problems switching to my 4th weapon (my pinky is not flexible enough apparently).
Where the heck am I supposed to put the dash control? And how am I gonna press it?
Whatever... I'll just play like I have always done. No dash. Doesn't seem much of a handicap to me.
The Dash is what I need to speed away from being surrounded by too many monsters. And the Shield Bash is quite a new move, as the move is made to finally use my own shields for a weapon instead of using it for just defending myself. I hope I get to enjoy these moves sooner! There's much possibilities to what these moves could do! Maybe jumping and swimming could be next!

good idea , hope it doesn't turn the game to being extremely skill intensive like starcraft 2 or terraria , in which case i won't be playing it
