the finishing moves and the slow motion make being a warrior

I don't know what it's like using magic yet but I love the combat as playing a Warrior. Killing enemies with one blow watching the character in slow motion ram a sword through someone is cool, the most satifsying warrior combat in any Elder Scrolls game I've played

What would make it better would be if I could rip someone's arm out of the socket and beat them to death with it, like a couple of the new books in Skyrim have stories about.

Aw, well. Decapitation is cool... except that for some reason heads weigh 1000x more than the body they came from. O.o

I love them as I play my Nord warrior! Honestly very satisfying. I just wish I knew how to always get the final hit slow motion.

I like the "looseness" of combat, for lack of a better word. It feels very violent and chaotic. And when I sprint forward and crash my warhammer down into a draugr's skull...VERY satisfying. Kinetic.

I like my Warrior cause I enjoy being able to play in 3rd person (Diablo 3 style) watching the full animation of your toon in action perform circle strafing techniques and such stead of just watching two hands on screen.

With my Thief character 3rd person don't work as well because it's hard to stay in 3rd person view and target accurately using bows. Same goes for Mage spell casting. So yea when I want to take a break from thief and mage toons and play 3rd person 100pct of the time and pretend I am in Diablo 3 beta, Warrior all the way!!
