brutal turn in the story
about 3/4 through which provides some variety in the form of melee

about the
combat in The Surge, taken directly from the press release: «The Surge's
combat system is fast - paced, tactical, and
brutal, with an innovative limb targeting system enabling you to attack and cut off specific limbs, farming materials to craft upgrades for your exo - suit.
