Did I miss something? Reads through topic…bwahaha!
Did you link the wrong video, OP? Because the part you linked to clearly shows the group of soldiers sticking together in a line in the encounters, with only the player running forward. Are you proposing the player not be allowed to break ranks? The line formation isn’t perfectly straight like a line battle from the Napoleonic era would be, but it’s a very small skirmish with enemies flanking, making a perfectly straight, 5-man-wide line a ludicrous proposal. The narrator even clearly says “they’re coming from all sides” and “you’d need eyes in the back of your head”. In a small skirmish like this, it makes far more sense to try to flank an enemy than to hold a tight phalanx of a few men. They’re also clearly not just fighting in duels, with people switching between opponents and fighting multiple opponents.
Honestly, I’m going to have to agree with kuri - this seems like a post intended purely to sew discord (or troll).

Ask and it shall be done.
The nonsense posts about fire arrows never being used in battle. No proof, so not true.
Then this nonsense about sneaky
And then this nonsense about there not being a front line in real life. No proof so not true.
No need for a link, we are already there.

Whait. No proof that fire arrows weren’t used in battle?
I linked a video about that. Just watch the video.

Look at what you have created! 
Love those big dots in his eyes. 
From the evidence you provided it was a small skirmish.
From that. what on earth makes you think they got it wrong NOT having rigid formations in the skirmish example provided? They’re not Roman legionaries.
Where is your evidence that the larger battles play out the same .

Looking at all the replies here.
Well…we could have all started this a little better
Some people seem to be really allergic against critique. Sometimes critique is valid, sometimes it isn’t. That’s in the nature of critique. Either way there is no reason to freak out about it or to insult.
In this case I thought that medieval armies would fight in formation, even in skirmishes. There is a scene where you can see Henry fight in the large battle, but I forgot where. And I got the impression that there was no formation.
The early trailers are showing Henry in a Formation

Formations:

I, guess, it’s enough. 
P.S if it’s still disturbing, just imagine it like modern Buhurt. I’m fine with it like that.

Of course there is always a formation before the battle, even in Hollywood movies. But I mean when the armies clash, the formation apparently dissolves more or less.
1:31 That’s what I meant. 1 vs 1 duels.
I know what you mean…but I’d say it would be less fun
NVM, please delete, Jaakari said it all.
