Hey guys,
I've been lurking around this forum for the past week looking for news on the latest patch since I was holding off playing it until they released but they're taking their time so I thought I'd play on it the other night.
And even though I couldn't get into the first so I never finished it, I love this one, and I haven't even gotten past the castle part yet, but I was wondering if anyone else agrees with some of the things I'd like them to change and these are just the things I noticed from my 1-2 hours playtime.
1. You should be able to cast spells and move at the same time instead of having to stop to cast them, I think it would speed up the pace of the combat and make it overall more fun.
2. Make blocking more responsive, I've only tried to use it a few times but he seems to take a long time to put his guard up, I don't know if you level up certain skills it will be more responsive and such but I do feel like it needs to be more responsive, and the one time I really depended on it he didn't even put his guard up and it got me killed :(
3. For some reason it usually takes about 2 button presses for him to equip one of his swords, maybe a bug?
4. When using a 360 controller (Razer Onza) he looks like a jittery robot when turning, not a big issue but just something that needs ironing out a bit I think... I think I'll be getting some grief by playing it with a 360 controller lol, it surprisingly works very well with it, it's probably the best implementation of the system without having Games for Windows Live on the box.
Anyway, just thought I'd share my little issues with the game so far and to see if anyone agrees with them.
Thanks!
