Is the special kill move for dragons different for male and

Post » Tue Jun 05, 2012 3:45 pm

I have noted during gameplay that,instead of jumping on a dragon's head and stabbing it, my female character seemed to swing around its neck to kill it. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this.

My female characters apparently hop on the side of the dragon's head. It looks silly.

I confess to not having played a male character to see if they do it differently.

Male and female character appear to have roughly the same killing animation on dragons.

I've gotten the "jump on the head and stab" animation on my (very much a woman) character, so it certainly can happen. I don't seem to get kill animations a lot with dragons in general, though, I just end up doing a normal chop and that's it.

I haven't paid close attention, but they seemed similar on my male and female characters. I figure weapon type would be more of a determining factor than gender. :confused:

The female khajiit animation just looks broken. it's clearly intended to be standing on TOP the head, but in fact you appear slightly to one side and sunken into it's eye socket, and proceed to stab yourself in the leg a few times.

It's probably because the K'hajiit are wasted on Skooma. :lol:

Looks about the same on my male argonian, versus my female everything else.

From what I can tell looking at the trailer narrated by Todd before release, it looks like my character does the same motions as the male Dovahkiin. I didn't get a shot of her first swinging up there though. :tes:

I haven't played a Khajit yet, but I have had the same problem with my Nord, Imperial, Breton, High Elf and Redguard characters. Looks like crap.

I have never seen that animation. I always kill them with a bow. Now I have to do this.

It's pretty cool and relatively brutal. :lol:
