Is it just me or ... - Darkchef - 06-16-2011
Is it just me or is the combat in overture rather clunky?
Seems to take a lot of effort to go into combat and win ... just seems more effort than it was before... the whole gesture thing seems to be a bit unintuitive...

Combat mechanic in Overture is not meant for player to go Freeman on anything moves. It's just, you are able to defend yourself in last hope. Player is meant to hide and avoid any possible encounter, like in real life.

It is clunky, even apart from its intended challenge. I did hear there is a way to change a setting though so that swinging is done by simple click, rather than dragging. Don't recall the thread though...Maybe someone else can point in the right direction.
