Unsure on the game

To start with please don’t downvote me to oblivion this is a genuine and honest appeal for input on resynced.

I can’t decide on the game as the combat looks a lot different to the original, im not a huge fan of the ability move from the new games and the parry combat seems a bit clunky from what I’ve seen. Not a fan of the sekiro kind of combat as someone described the combat like that to me. The changes to the fleet mechanic and trade routes also spoils things a little for me.

But the graphics look good and the pirate aspects always drew me to the game. So I need to ask are things better than they seem ?
