Except KCD is everything but generic. It's virtually the only game that actually looks like middle ages without all the ridiculous fantasy decor. Well, at least since around Darklands.

Well shit, Oblivion combat almost confirmed there.
Someone, get there and convince him otherwise...
Skill -> to-hit chance -> different directional attacks to better counter different resistances -> add in more animated responses to hits and misses to mitigate the ”swish-swish-swish” he’s talking about.

meh
its an action rpg
just add physics emulation according to your stats
character too tall and heavy? knockbacks are less likely
higher sword skill and strength? put some actual weight to your attacks
higher athletics? you can charge with more strength and speed
etc etc
i call it: beyond dark messiah's kicks to the spiky wall

Yes, players will penetrate the very depths of Todd's Anus in the search of Elder Scroll of Lies.

You have to be careful with "Strength stat increases damage". This kind of thing can easily ruin games. Imagine you create an intricate combat system requiring skill. Now imagine a guy with 1000 strength can just walk in and one shot any enemy. Combat system destroyed...

You have to go through hordes of oblivion and skyrim lovers first though, a quest dire in itself indeed.
Luckily the 2 guys that are giving them ideas (indigo gaming and zaric) are rpg nerds, so maybe there is a chance.

akshually when you think about it, it's pretty much the same, just different side of a coin.
With low weapon skill you'd miss but do full damage at a blow..... what they want to do is hitting all time, but dealing low damage at a blow, in essence if you would hit 10 times for example you would do the same damage as if you would hit once with a weapon, and 1 in 10 times you would most likely hit with a weapon.
So it's pretty much the same as missing, it's just other way of looking at it.
It seems they want to get Skyrim crowd which don't like missing, it's a good way to tricking them to play, because the end effect is the same but they won't complain that they are missing.

He liked Gothic's combat and skill progression when I asked him. I think these old fudds had already decided on the game they want, good or bad, and the server is for nothing but establishing an audience of fangirls. But I won't take anything for granted, of course.

Most likely, if they are consulting ideas they are doing it with Indigo gaming and Zaric (two of them are talking with each other)

Well Indigo is their 'marketing director' and Zaric was promoting them on his channel and said he has info which cannot say at this point, so most likely.
