Combat is god-awful

[pangma]

The amount of clunkiness and unresponsive actions for combat is unreal and makes it unbeliviably irritating fighting mobs - especially the demons...

I have to agree, reaction time when blocking is almost a waste of time, and i'm still in the starting area. Can only hope that as this is still early that it will be adjusted over time.

Is there any survival game out there that has good combat? Arent they all the same, with combat feeling clunky and floaty. No impact, no feedback.

Sons of the Forest, Nightingale, Valheim, and even New World has better combat mechanics than this at the moment - with these titles having far from a well-polished combat system.

Play it like a souls like.

You just proved his point, then. Those games, by your own admission, don't have good combat either. Some MAY be subjectively better than this game's combat system, in YOUR opinion, but that's it.

There's this universal problem where every animation you do, combat particularly, takes WAAAY too long, like the guy designing the animations didn't get the memo it's real time combat, not turn based.

Well... this post is about my opinion on the combat of Dragonwilds and comparing it to other titles that I find better. I just wish that the combat was better and more like other titles that I PERSONALLY actually find pleasing.

Oh well, guess I am skipping this one too then

No, no - you stated this as a fact... Saying "Sons of the Forest, Nightingale, Valheim, and even New World has better combat mechanics than this at the moment" is making a statement. If you'd ended that with "in my opinion", now THAT would actually have been an opinion.

naaa combat feels clunky in runescape... but should be easy to improve upon.
