I think the combat in W3 is OK (not great, not terrible), but what I didn't like is the skill check system. I felt like I was playing Age of Decadence, where the entire game is just a skill check simulator, and in some situations you can't do anything without the specific levels of very specific skills.

Overall I enjoyed W3 quite a bit, but a nuclear alpha strike being the most optimal strategy for opening every encounter somewhat hampered the experience as I missed a lot of dialogue doing so.
