What all can you do with them? How do they work? Do they apply to the player's character when they die, too? For example, will I be cut in half like the enemies if killed by a cut at that height?

I was just wondering as mouse and keyboard are impossible for me to game on due to medical issues. It would be a dream come true to be able to spend my limited hours away from work grinding this amazing looking game on my xbone controller :)

Are there any plans to add multiplayer to this game?
