combat system

Combat is singled out as a standout strength, with one reviewer calling it one of their favorite turn-based systems ever.

The core fighting was described as excellent, with the actual moment-to-moment combat standing out most.

Combat is widely praised for its ferocity, depth, and variety, even though some reviews also note tedium or balance issues in longer encounters.

Combat is functional but divisive: some reviewers enjoyed the late-game flow, while many still found it shallow or merely serviceable.
