Yes, melee weapons were the stepchild weapons of Fallout - swing and thrust, could it get any more bland ? But normally, you could attack eyes, head, groin, arms, legs, torso (and more, depending on the enemy), you could use several attack modes, hurl explosives, had a great variety of hand-to-hand attacks etc.
While the current system in D:OS certainly needs some balance work, i am very happy that fighters, rangers and rogues do have skills in this game.
