Yes, good points, especially the comment on wave after wave of enemies.  It really made them feel harmless.  Should have been fewer but tougher fights against boss types, or mega swarm of mobs attacking you 1 -2 times in the whole game.  Should have been way more atmosphere, exploration, even clue hunting.
