Combat's not even boring though
-
Yea it is it kills the hole game it's just not well thought out or cool
-
But it is though. You have 5 unique signs that all affect the battlefield in different ways, albeit minor, you have different combinations of strong and light attacks, you have the choice between short and long dodges. Blocking, parrying, counterattacking. Certain weapons have special abilities, and there are nearly 100 potions that manipulate combat. What exactly makes it "boring"?
-
Only one of the five abilities is wort using other than that it's just parry roll light heavy attack not much happing
-
I use pretty much all signs. Especially in the dlc's. There's a whole bunch of enemies you simply won't beat by just sword attacks. Question though, did you try it on normal difficulty?
-
I believe whatever was higher than normal combat was just too boring for me I wanted to like it I had more fun playing gwent than the game because of the combat
-
Hmm.. ok. Can't be for everyone. Now playing on hardest, and have already had my ass kicked a bunch of times. Actually the enemies in this dlc seem to be way tougher and varied. Loving it :)
-
That -blam!-ing frog in the first DLC bent me over on death march
-
Please, provide an example of a game where you do more than that, so I may make a more direct counterargument.
-
Most rpg games have really cool unique abilities that you can't lvl up fast enough to get that make you feel powerful and or some sort of combo system that adds depth to the combat

I agree, to a degree. The Witcher doesn't lock you out of most abilities with skill point walls. You begin the game with, more or less, every power you will have for the rest of the game. This is partially because according to the story, Geralt is an extremely skilled Witcher, and it wouldn't make sense for him to not know basic tools and signs of the trade, and partially because on higher difficulty levels, certain enemies can only be defeated if you exploit their weaknesses. However, some equipment can add abilities, for example, there is a sword that as you land quick attacks builds charge, and that charge can be released in a heavy attack at the cost of some health to deal massive damage at an increased range. There are also multiple skills, allowing you to unlock alternative signs that have similar but powerful effects, like a constant shield, or a firestream. It isn't on the same scale as many other games, but it isn't a bad system by any means.
