I play this game everyday, so I guess it's a case of love and hate? some love it, some hate it. I am a traceur(I do parkour) and I was trying to convince my friend to train with me. The game helped me getting him out of his chair (not that the game was bad, but when you play it you wanna go out and try it for yourself). The combat system is really bad indeed, because in wing chun a step back is resigning, so the fighting style should blend with parkour's avoidness. Maybe Ba-Gua or Hap-ki-do would fit better. Of course faith can't throw the fast-fire punches from wing chun, and that's what fails the fight system. Oh, and when you die while disarming somebody, the guy continues his animation while you are on the ground, it's the first case of self-disarming I have ever seen on videogames. At least it isn't yet another freeroaming, because first person GTA would suck. well... I play this game everyday, so I guess it’s a case of love and hate?
