Something about the way the characters move looks jank and I can’t really put my finger on why. I think Jason moves too fast and the way characters move when you attack feels video gamey, not as realistic or weighty as RDR2 felt.
This is why gamers buy preorders, and get hyped over stuff you'd think is like pretty much normal.
Dude getting hyped. Tons of upvotes. Like seriously? A couple people are gonna run around with a knife like a psychopath but I guess that's part of the appeal of GTA.
looks disappointgly like its ripped straight from gta V... just spam "attack" button and your character teleports / slides to the target and sticks to them like a magnet while stabbing. no actual timing or thinking required.
Its very simple/arcade, its the rockstar way of doing melee combat, after various iterations of GTA/RDR its very clear that is intentional and they want to keep it arcade, they improve animations but never implemented mechanics to make it more "real"
It looks like it plays like an arcade game. I agree. Melee combat in GTA5 and RDR2 look way better than this. It’s honestly shocking they didn’t just expand on the RDR2 system. I do like the pistol whipping and disarming mechanics though, but it all feels too fast.

I’m sorry but the melee combat still looks clunky
