Anybody remember the Deadly Reflex Oblivion mod that Bethesda essentially based Skyrim's combat on?

Oh yeah I do. Wow that takes me back. Stamina, kicks, acrobatics, finishing animations and beheadings. That was a great mod.

The lung collapse from a piercing arrow blew my mind. The gasping and desperately grabbing at the arrow while they collapsed was so advanced.

The Skyrim animations were smoother and more polished. The Deadly Reflex mod was more gritty and badass.

Pssh, I fucking wish they based combat on that mod. Skyrim's combat is still a little too basic comparatively.

I agree with your sentiment, maybe the word I should have used was 'inspired.' The mod was definitely better than Skyrim's system imo.
