Man, the flavor of this game is absolutely S tier. I have no idea what's going on but it looks incredible and I want to know more.
But the combat and movement... I have 5000h in Warframe so believe me, I want this to be good, I love DE, but I haven't seen anything attractive beyond the finger click and a couple of magic arm skills.
Running and walking feel like there's too much inertia, like moving through molasses. The sword swings don't feel fluid or weighty. I get what they're going for with throwing and calling back the sword, but it doesn't look good to me right now. The rolling/iframes just don't feel snappy enough.
I'm looking forward to seeing more from this game, and specifically better combat and movement. I know you can, DE, you made 2 entire movement systems for Warframe.
