Juxtaposition The Ladies of Neverwinter's own Lady Shayna Davidson's observations of BioWare's Dragon Age comes her "Focus Testing of BioWare's upcoming epic saga for Xbox, Jade Empire...
For those wanting detailed information on the fighting styles and such, I fear you will be disappointed. They gave me a nice focus-testing version to look at, and I was to focus on going through the story (much to my glee). Thus, the combat was very easy and I never had the need to use more than two basic styles. Indeed, I suspect that I would have some trouble with it in the full version, as I suck at action combat. Oh, the controls were easy enough to handle. My combat 'strategy' was not exactly the most refined, however. It mostly consisted of me attacking manically as quickly as possible. You know how little kids will come up to their enemy and start slapping away with their hands? Imagine that, but with better animations. Well, on occasion I would also use a nice sweeping move when surrounded, and a knock back move when I needed a breather. Once or twice I actually jumped over my opponent to avoid an attack, though I was not consistently able to reproduce it. Even with the combat so easy, I died on more than one occasion.
