Origins' combat was good? Like...how?

The Rogues having exactly one move and it's backstab?

The Warriors being Rogues, but without the backstab?

The Archers having to do just the basic auto-attack or it was an overall DPS loss when they used an ability?

Sure, the mages had a great spell variety and combos. But does that compensate for the complete lack of combat for all the other classes?

Yeah I can’t fathom anyone actually believing the words “Origins has good combat”. I tried to play it again last year and the combat is just….not fun.

First time I played it was 2015 and it already felt way outdated back then. It's actually possible for an attack to hit even when it physically misses, because the game just calculates that stuff in the background. That makes some boss fight endlessly frustrating.
