| The music is awesome. I can't believe you don't like the music.
Also, combat is OK. Not the greatest way of implementing mob AI, but it could have been so much more worse. Also, the boar stun is removed in 1.08.
Basically, doing the "can't catch me" cha-cha as you so eloquently put it, is pretty much why people are nagging on the game all the time. What they don't realize is that the game isn't meant to be a click-fest. If you just exercise a little patience and strike at the right time, you don't waste any endurance at all, get some good damage and are free to strike again almost immediately. If you just click frantically, mobs will back away and then pounce on you, which will end in death. Also, when you click a lot, you'll do a few strikes after finishing clicking, which can also lead to some very violent deaths (another mob attacks and you aren't free to defend yourself).
Try it in god mode a few times. Just strike when the animal is trying to attack and figure out which is the right attack to use (right-mouse for fast, left for more damage). It makes the combat a lot more fun.
Fighting humans/humanoids is way too easy though. I just don't even bother using any tactics when fighting orcs. I just run in the middle of a camp and start twirling my blades. They'll die pretty quick.  |
