Am I the only one who HATES finishing moves?

Post » Mon Dec 12, 2011 3:44 am

I play as a high-stamina Dunmer duelwielder, I dodge as my only way of defense... because of the way I want my character (and difficulty) I've put no points in health and refuse to do so... so sure I die or get hit a few times do to failing a dodge, I don't mind that, infact I'm happy I'm so far from a tank, however when a [CENSORED] finishing move decides to help opponent by paralyzing me then I mind. Whenever an NPC with a warhammer as much as prepares to swing I lose... for him starting his swing (that I could easily dodge) paralyzes me and forces his hit to kill me no matter what. I've even tried running at my opponent and right before my blades would have killed him the game decided to freeze me due to him having started an attack he'd never have been able to finish.

Not just does this paralyzing [CENSORED] svck but there are countless flaws with finishing moves, as the forced 3rd/1rst person, the fact that I've yet to have a single one of them actually hit me right (a stab in my stomach ended up above my head), etc...

So can you please just make these horrible finishing moves toggleable?

BTW: Steam svcks.

Another biased poll! :shakehead:

EDIT: Look, if you want to argue your viewpoint, argue your God damned viewpoint. Using a partisan poll is both poor form and moronic.

If you say Steam svcks, which is true atm, I assume you got the game for the PC?

Go to the UESP -> look up console commands -> use the one where you can set the percentage for kill moves -> play the game

Voting on a biased poll is the best.

It shows the incompetence of the original poster.

If your health is that low you deserve to be finished. They're called finishing moves for a reason.

You know, it really is annoying having to save in between every attack to make sure the AI doesn't execute a finishing move, right?

Bl!nk I can't find any console command page for Skyrim on there. :(

I voted for the ones that disagree with you solely because you made a crybaby poll.

I'm all for finishing moves being toggleable, or better yet, selective. But honestly, I've had no problems with any of the finishing moves, and after about 150 hours of gameplay, I still don't get tired of seeing them.

Awesome more biased polls.

If you can't go toe-to-toe with someone(esp those with a huge 2 hander) there are other avenues to defeat them, or even leave get more powerful then return.

I agree, which is why I wear armor, and which is why people through history have preferred to wear armor - so that they don't get one-shotted in a fight up close with swords and axes and nasty sharp pointy teeth. Choosing to wear light armor while being a close-range melee fighter is one thing; choosing to wear no armor at all and never increase your health while being a close-range melee fighter is just a bit much. Your method of playing is obviously not effective, so don't blame the finishing moves for your death.

I applaud you on the glorious amount of hate you show. It's so rare to see perfectly channeled hate.

And I agree. Scoot out the way only to be frozen and be hit directly in the face with a gigantic axe. <_<

I don't need a poll to tell me that I'm a stupid jerk when I already know I am.

I like the finishing moves.


You only put options complaining about the finishing moves, or saying that if i agree that i LIKE the finishing mvoes i'm stupid.. What's your problem man ??

Just because you don't like, doesn't mean that you can call people that like stupid... I LOVE the finishing moves..


EDIT: My advice is - Before you make a thread, disable your "rage" mode..... Look the amount of hate you show.. be polite.

Well thing is, I don't mind dying if the hit would actually have hit me...

What is it with people and moronic polls? I really wish Beth would take away the ability to make polls on this forum. Hmm, maybe I should make a poll about it?
