What does it matter if the weapon don't react to hitting a body just right. That's a really nit picky thing to complain about. What's next? "This is has dullened me because I cannot see toe nails on my character. It breaks my immersion to not see any kind of toe nails or finger nails. I play this game for immersion and no toe nails means I'm not going to get this game anymore now..."

Give me a freaking break. Skyrim is going to be amazing and they are broadening their horizons by letting you work in the game and dual wield swords/magic. if seeing a blade move not quite right breaks your immersion, then you probably had ADD anyways and need to stick to games like CoD.

don't react to hitting a body just right.

How about not at all. Also, grow up and accept that other people might have criticism on games that you are a fan of.

No-one is saying that they aren't gonna get it or that they don't understand jank.. We just wish that they had evolved the combat even a little from oblivion in terms of impact.

@bioblood22: by the volume of complaints about the combat, one would wager that combat IS important to some.. especially since it amounts to 90% of the playtime of the game.. Just sayin'...

@bioblood22: Where did I say that? I said that after playing Dead Island, my opinion of the combat in Skyrim has been dullened.

Project much? Btw, nothing wrong with reading at all :) enjoying a good book myself atm, but I come to games to INTERACT, and combat is a form of INTERACTION.

Aye, I'm totally looking forward to Skyrim, just wish they had spent a little longer getting some impact animation in.

@bioblood22:

I see, you're probably best off with a good book then, the rest of us came here to play a game.

@bioblood22: I play ES games for the experience, having a blade that swings through flesh as easily as air with no enemy response is somewhat of an immersion breaker.

What do you play ES games for? The paper thin plot or the badly thought out leveling systems?

@project343: This.

As flawed as Dead Island is, it really has dullened my opinion of Skyrim combat unfortunately :(
