This was a bug that one of the alphas had when they added the slitting throat feature. In that alpha the game didn't check that do you have or you don't have a weapon in your hand.

Building levels and parkouring around them.

The parkour system is one of the most amazing things about the game, yet so many of the YouTube playthroughs only feature Overgrowth's combat system (which, granted, is equally amazing).

Throwing weapons didn't go anywhere :-/

I mean, I've only tried with a knife, but you can still throw that just fine.

Ragdolls with "M" is pretty fun. Especially if you time it right, jump and then immediately press M, and 90% of the time you slam yourself into the ground and break your own neck.

I'm starting to get better at actual combat, and it's becoming more enjoyable.

And yes, you can still throw pretty much any weapon.

Actually you are limited to throw your weapons at other characters that are your enemies right now.
But what others mean by throwing weapons are shown really clear in this alpha video here
You can't do this right now.

I like to go on Red Shards and put the spawn for Turner at the tallest one, then make an enemy to fight bare handed, then make weapons and fight downwards down the shards untill i get to the bottom.
