I really don't see how Bloodlines would be bearable like that. It's not an action game, but they made the combat play like it.


The combat doesn't require the least bit of precision tough. You just point yourself in the general direction of the enemy and hit one of the mouse buttons. Is this any better or worse than hitting the attack command button over and over in other RPG's? Who knows! Just like KoToR and Planescape, I simply tolerated the combat so I could get to more of the dialogue and story (and the conversations are one area of Bloodlines where it runs fine).

I think it has more to do with the fact that both run off source.


I think it has more to do with the fact that it really doesn't matter with Bloodlines since its design means that it's not a deal breaker. FoK may have a super machine, but if it's taking him 2 minutes to turn a corner, then something about his whole rig is fucked. I was running it at very acceptable rates on 70% of his horsepower.
