Will you be able to stab?

You just slashed in different ways in OB i was wondering if you would be able to get a nice solid stab in too. outside of finishing moves.

If you've watched gameplay videos released thus far, deathblows with special animations are all stabs. I guess if you're calculated to do enough damage to kill on a hit, it plays one of those.

Really? I was sure it was one of the power attacks with the sword. Oh well, stabbing is still fun.

Finishing moves is what I thought I saw? I wonder if this relates to "all" swords/daggers? Even in sneak mode>would be straight to a finish move. That is what I assumed.

In oblivion you can definitely stab. Its a higher level power attack.

I think they didn't add spears exactly to avoid the problems of animating different parries against stabs. I would be very surprised if there is a stabbing move in real time (not in a finishing animation).

Been playing Morrowind recently which has a thrust, so that might be why I thought OB had it.

Stabbing was only for high level power attacks(level 75 and 100 with Blade unlocked special power attacks that 'stabbed').

You could stab in Oblivon. It was a power attack you got at a high level.

Well since stabbing is so much more effective then slashing in real life i hope it will be a form of power attack or finishing move.
