I miss Acrobatics :(

I miss jumping on water, tumbling, and JUMPING WHILE SPRINTING. Not complaining, just dont understand why they took this attribute out.

tumbling


There is a Sneak perk that lets you roll.

They took it out because you could potentially skip areas due to dungeon design.

Although I still miss it.

Oh boy, how wonderful! I can roll a few feet while sneaking, in order to move just barely faster than I normally would! AWESOME!

Hardly as useful as a combat roll.

... no, they removed it because you could get to level 20 just by jumping.

Yeah. I liked getting good at running and jumping so I could travel fast and be able to jump high enough to get on top of things. I keep coming to rocks I used to be able to jump onto in Oblivion but I can't in Skyrim no matter how I hop around. Usually when something is chasing me.

Of all of things they have removed from previous titles, I miss this the second least.

It feel like more of 'just a video game' if I'm jumping halfway across towns and over buildings. I think the jump height in Skyrim is perfect.

Athletics being the thing I miss the least.

and?

Are you forgetting that there is level scaling? If you got to level 20 by jumping alone, you would fail miserably in combat as the enemies would be a lot stronger than you.

Unless you play a ranged character, then you could jump up onto a vantage point, like a roof, and start shooting arrows :o

In that case, remove conjuration and every combat school in the game.

Summon anything+ Spam attacks with anything= Infinite skill raise.

That's the point.

You'll be stuck because you leveled up way too high because you wanted to get past a mountain or you just want to play an athletic character.

This was Bethesda's thinking I believe. They wanted to make it as hard as possible to 'break' your character (enchanting smithing blah blah blah) . Unlike Oblivion, where if you weren't careful your character would be severely gimped.

unrealistic acrobatic skills were dumb, they should only be allowed for the khajit..a cat race should be able to jump around all nimbly bimbly ;)

Removing a skill just because some idiots abuse it by grinding is not a good excuse.

Yes, its a terrible shame that it is gone, and it simply wasnt neccesary.
Skyrim has too few skills.
There are now insurmountable barriers everywhere and instead of getting actually better at jumping, youre stuck the entire game slowly sliding up mountains.

removing skills and attributes was a terrible idea, if anything they should have brought skills back -_-

No running while sprinting? So, do we just fast walk when we press sprint?

I want my darn crossbows, throwing stars, repair skill & armor/weapon degradation, ghosts that only take damage from silver or ebony, the creeper's grandson Billy Creeper, Bonemold Armor, and hardcoe mode. Probably not going to get any of them.

ha thats the only time i miss the ridiculous jumping, many time have i gotten stuck midway up a high mountain with my goal just out of reach...rather then climbing down and trek around the entire mountain range, i usually jam the jump button and move around til i trick my way up
