I made it a point that the combat in Morrowind wasnt great. the combat in Beyond divinity is terribly. Im not saying that its terrible because of the strategy aspet, I am saying this because there is 2 attacking animatins, When people ghet hit they dont even seem like it, and the characters move much to slow.
Morrowind Combat is, click lcikc do 3 different types of attack, hold in for stronger attack, I have needed to use strategy on quite a few occasions, but most enimies have only 3 hurting animations, which are terrible.
Gothic combat system. Hold the attack button and press a direction to attack that way, Forward, Left or right. Excellent animation, excellent detah animations. You must parry ir you will die in very few hits, Very realistic. At level 5 you could beat a level 15 if you are quick enough and dont get hit once or you will die, Very realistic and plate armor makes a huge differencem at any level.
So my rating per say for each games combat system it.
Divine Divinity : 5, Click click click, run, click click click. I also have had troubles with misclicks and un-responsive controls causeing me to die, often.
Beyond Divinity : 2, I wont say it was the worst ever but...
Morrowind :4, more immersive combat where you actually sontrol your person trhough first person view, but the animation is terrible and you only get three attacks, plus your guy uses the bow in an impossible to use stance.
Gothic Series :10, Lots of buttons lots of practice, awsome animation, cool blood cut effects. Realistuic technique, Not to mention at each rank up your guy holds the weapon type differently. No doubt best combat ever.
