User blog comment:Thedoucheinthenorth/The combat of Skyrim - yay or nay?/@comment-1840877-20121216100204

Well, combat in Skyrim was always going to be rather simplistic -- it is just a sword and shield, after all. Personally, though, I would have liked more options in combat than just "stab, stab, bash, dead". Maybe Bethesda could have implemented some sort of combo system for combat (charging a bandit with a shield while thrusting an axe into his neck at the same time, anyone?). That might have added more variety and more options when it came to combat. Maybe we'll see it in TES VI?
