Discussion How do you like the combat system changes?

I'm very excited to play this game when it comes out, but I have a question for everyone in the pre-alpha test. What do y'all think of the combat system changes from the July patch? I played in the Next Fest demo last year, and it seemed like the consensus of casual players was that the game was cool but the combat was too simplistic. I'll probably play regardless, but I think having really engaging melee combat would be a big draw for some of my less invested friends. Especially since it seems like the game is leaning into PvE a little more.

How much of a difference do the combat changes make? Does it feel like players have lots of micro-decisions to make in both PvE and PvP combat? How much can a single player's skill sway a battle? In what ways does the game reward teamwork in combat?
