You obviously don't know anything about the game. There is both direct and indirect combat in the game. It's actually surprisingly heavy on combat.

I don’t believe you at all. I just watched a review by Botalks games and he pretty much confirmed all the fears I had with the game, despite being a very positive YouTuber towards Nintendo. Combat in this game is lame.  This game will sell poorly. 

Believe whatever you want I have played the game I am right and you are wrong, deal with it.

I'm playing this and there is plenty of combat in this game. Zelda is both a Necromancer and a Swordfighter in this. If you like to apply a bit more strategy in combat compared to previous Zelda's you're going to like this. I do. But each their own.

That Echoes scores lower than BOTW/Tears is expected. It's a less grandstand ambition game after all. If it would have been released on e.g. the 3DS. Reviewers would not make the comparison and scored it higher. I'm enjoying it a lot of what I played thus far. Obviously a big Zelda fan, but up till now my favorite game of the year.
