To be fair, it doesn’t have a boring medieval-fantasy D&D setting, which is at least different from 99% of RPGs. I would give it a chance based on that alone.
I mean to each to their own, and I’m not gonna try to be one of the people trying to convince you your opinion is wrong, but saying “I don’t like the combat in rpg games” in my mind sounds like “I don’t like the main character in Sci Fi movies”. Baldurs Gate, Skyrim, and The Witcher are all RPGs with entirely different combat systems… seems odd to me to to say you’d play none of them for that shared reason
Though I don’t really enjoy those other games either… Maybe it’s more the pacing? Hit me with constant challenging/engaging gameplay or interesting story and I’m happy, but then RPGs aren’t quite either. Too much downtime/filler perhaps.
Anyways, plenty of other games to play, to each their own indeed.
Too bad it’s an rpg, i.e. I won’t be playing it.
That’s fine, it’s great to know your genres!
Im usually very anti-rpg, but i gave this one a try and loved it.
So if you have gamepass it might be worth trying at least.

Yeh it looks cool, but it’s the gameplay that always turns me off with RPGs, I just can’t deal with the combat. It’s a shame.

Oh, is that what the game is?

Same for me, I never touched a Final Fantasy (or alike) game and never will, but because of the parry and dodge mechanic I loved E33
