It's definitely much more polished than the first installment. I've played for around 40 hours and can probably count the bugs I've encountered so far on one hand.

Is it the same combat system as the first? No matter how hard I tried, it just wouldn't click for me. Ended up modding myself invincible in order to beat the game...

I'll do it again too if I need to because I love everything else about the game, but I'd prefer not to

It’s marginally better, but mostly the same. Starts off incredibly hard, ends up incredibly easy.

It gets too easy too fast IMO. I haven't done much of the main quest yet but I'm already a invincible human tank and killing armored enemies with single hits. I might swap my sword with a lower tier weapon to get a bit of the challenge back.

I'd say it's slightly easier, but you should remember that avoiding combat is not only an option but sometimes recommended.

Edit. Also remember that when you get the opertunity to practice spar, do it. You don't just train your ingame character but also yourself.
