I appreciated this game, but I was also put off by the devotion to realism. In the end the combat felt repetitive. It all came down to timing perfect parry over and over.
Yeah, I remember when I started it before the combat annoying me. If it gets too awful the second run I'll either cheat if I want to finish the game or move on.
Believe it or not I didn't think the combat was that bad, what was very off putting for me was the extremely 'floaty' movement. I don't know why some devs do this for the sake of making it seem realistic when it just makes it seem like the character is glitching out constantly. I've got to have smooth camera and model movement in my games otherwise I think there's something wrong. There was also definitely strange rubberbanding issues with the animations in the first one.
Star Citizen did this with their movement too and it was awful.
Oh sorry I was writing about the first one, if they've fixed all that in the second one though that's excellent and I'd seriously consider getting it then.

Can you elaborate? I was just watching the trailer and saw some weirdness in the movement animations but I'm not sure that's what you mean.
