I hope they changed the weird combat system. I know people do like it, but it’s the reason I didn’t end up buying it after playing the full version demo
I enjoyed the combat system overall but it got very tedious and unfair if you got attacked by more than two people at the same time. I suppose it’s realistic, but it wasn’t really fun when you had to “lock on” to multiple enemies.
It takes a bit to get used to. The first thing I do on a new playthrough is go to train with Bernard right away until my sword skill is high enough. You can forget using the sword before that, it’s a night-and-day difference. Once you get to the point where you’re running around with a set of full armor, you’re basically human tank. I actually killed the first boss in one hit once lol.
I think this was a lot of people’s hangups, they expected a hack and slash, that leveled with you, instead they got a peasant for a main character who didn’t know how to handle a weapon at all without actually training. Once you figured out how to train, it got a lot easier to fight.

I never was able to get the combat system at all. I resorted to bow and arrow for the entire game.
