I agree with everything outside of this. We can't really say combat is far less about variety seeing as we don't know what will all be implemented. Heck it is clear there will be bow gameplay, magic as well considering what he did with his Ax looking like frost, hand to hand combat with no weapon as well. That's 3 different things right there in this short demo. So we can't really make your last conclusion to be honest.

Hence the "if the E3 demo is representative of the final product." In essence, if the E3 demo is basically what the core combat will look like, then I think my statement holds without too much room for debate. If there's magic that can be switched to on the fly, or the bow can be used in the middle of attacks to extend strings, then yeah, it's worth reconsidering. But none of that was shown in the demo.

True true! Eitehr way I am excited for the new direction and welcome it gladly!
