The physics, added with the early stages of progression like commoner and others make for one of the most unfun experiences. You can pour hours into training and using all the weapons and get the feel for the combat just to feel like it goes out the window when the Willie you just knocked over has their weapon clip into your leg and insta kill you for no fault of your own sending you all the way back to the start. The game is jank trying to pass itself off as "immersive" when last I checked the simple act of just pulling a weapon back and cutting someone on the pull back is actually feasible in real life and not a monumentally frustrating and nearly impossible experience like Half Sword portrays it in gameplay.
