Still, there are some special moves you can make. When they swing back, you should try to dodge or block. When you swing your weapon, you must make sure that you’re aiming it at the enemy.
For the most part, it’s all about the basics. There’s no combo system, and few special moves. That’s because it operate as a first person fighting game (there is a tedious third-person view available, but it doesn’t change the combat mechanics). Skyrim, like previous Elder Scrolls games, is a bit strange where combat is concerned.
