We don't need Hit stop in Space Marine 2 because this is not a Fighting Game nor Monster Hunter or Souls-like game this is a horde game where you fight multiple enemies at a time.

If the devs don't really want to remove Hit stop here are my suggestions to improve it:

1. Make dodge cancel attack and heavy stance.

2. Slightly reduce the Hit stop frames.

3. Remove it in light attacks but keep it in heavy attacks with reduced frames.

4. Remove the Hit stop and make heavy attack slow instead the screen just like in the first game.

5. Give us an option to turn it off.

6. Or just remove the Hitstop entirely please UwU
