Some things about melee combat;

- Why melee combat svcks balls?
- I dont understanding why can't i block enemies melee attacks, when i am dual wielding?
- Is there a way to lock on your target? In melee combat targetting is a real issue, specially when doing power attacks.
- Why is there no dodging or strafing mechanics to evade incoming enemy attacks in melee combat?
- Most of the times I hit the target with normal attack and it doesn't even budge, makes me think twice whether i hit the target or not.
- Finishing moves cut scenes make it even worse, because you know you did not finish your enemy like that at all, because you were just hacking at your target like you are cutting wood, without any sort of graceful character movement. This realisation makes these cutscenes completely irrational.

Up till now melee combat has been a big disappointment. And if this is all the game has to offer in the way of melee combat then after playing some other modern RPGs like WItcher 2 , Skyrim feels like a 10 year old game, when it comes to melee combat.

Archery, at the moment, seems so much better and effective , specially with stealth. I am playing a stealth based dual wielder, but now i realise that i have wasted all the points that i put in single handed weapons. I should have gone for archery.

Does anyone else have the similar sentiments about melee combat? I hope that a patch is in works to make melee combat more effective.

This epic game deserves much better melee combat.
