I really wish the combat was not so extremely clunky. tried both 1 and 2, can’t stand the combat in this game. it’s just annoying, frustrating and not fun.
The combat is definitely one of those things that sucks until it clicks. Then it’s amazing. You really do feel like a badass when you can do combos and feints and master strikes just by reading the enemy’s stance.
But it can also be pretty frustrating when you fuck up and you lose 2 hours of work because of hubris. Which happens to me. A lot.
But I love the torture.
I just wanna play a game though, like everything else is amazing with it. atmosphere, towns, cities, story etc… I love it all but the combat. I give it a go, get way too frustrated with it and just end up playing games like medieval dynasty or lately bellwright. i guess the fighting needs to be more cozy, rather then planned or reactive? I dunno. game is amazing though
This comment reminded me of why I haven’t actually played it. I’ve tried it several times and feel the same way.
