Not sure I understand criticism here…feels like improved version of round based attack system in Kotor , but with timing/rhythm to your attacks ( instead of simply clicking attack Icon on the screen), changing playstyles and active dodging.
It worked well for it, but lacked more strict timing window and rewarding finishers like in typical combo based systems.
Think it's more an issue of people judging it as a straightforward action game, was more a mix of two systems ( when older rpg's were transitioning to full real time combat).

I don't really have any good logical explanation. I just feel that the combat is clunky. It's purely a personal preference thing.

Used to be on my beat it once per year schedule, but has since been replaced by W3 with both expansions. I think its soundtrack is way up there as well. I still think the second chapter in the city with the investigation quest line is one of the best RPG experiences ever.

I wish I had that much free time. :)
