Dose the combat get better

So I bought Dune Awakening yesterday because I'd heard a lot of good things about it, and I've been having a blast. I've already clocked 11 hours. I do have one big issue with the game, though: the combat just isn't very fun. NPCs are so tanky that it takes four headshots to kill them, and the melee combat might actually be some of the worst I've ever played. It feels extremely clunky and janky. I was wondering if it stays like this throughout the game, or does it get better later on? If it does improve, around when does it start getting better?
