I LOVE slow-motion killing blows/shots. They never get old for me. I don't understand how they could.

Works correctly every time for me. Different bugs for different folks I guess!

I'm using an archer right now and I really like the finishing moves. Yeah there are a few times when it may get me in some trouble, but not often enough to be a problem.

Since I'm playing a Khajiit I am also using unarmed for melee fighting. The finishing moves for unarmed are great. I love the pounding and flipping. Well done Bethesda.

I like some of the finishers, but I dislike when magic cams change the point of view from my character and slowly zoom-in the dying target's back of the head.

Yeah. I just wish they'd fix it up a bit so that I'm not slashing his forehead half the time....

No, hate them.

I've seen some of the magic finishers, and frankly, they are all extremely underwhelming and unsatisfying. You have a better, more satisfying view of the kill without the cam, in those cases. Maybe if they zoomed it out about twice as far, it might show more. As it is, if you get a fireball killcam, it's so close that you just see the victim dying while surrounded by an orange glow. Could as easily have been an unfortunate hairspray accident, as a fireball.

Sometimes they occur just before I want to take a picture. I get ready to set the camera and all...- "Nope! Let's do a killcam and show the great detail of the Slaughterfish's teeth while it's falling backwards in slow-mo!"

Yes i am waiting for the mage character too because of the 1.5 new finishing killcams

Now with the new patch the addiction in finishing moves is actually more............the archery is great,very cool:)

The magic kill cams annoy the snot out of me. They just randomly freeze me and everyone else to show me lighting the enemy on fire from UH RLY KEWL ANGLE!111!
Like wtf, why? Your character doesn't even do anything unique, the camera angle just changes. It'd be like if Mortal Kombat did the whole "FINISH HIM!!!!" scene and then they showed an overly-cinematic viewing of your character throwing a basic punch.
THIS is what one developer did during their "creativity" week, and Beth is BRAGGING about this? Fire the guy.

Archery Killcams should be maybe a bit more selective. Maybe only really impressive shots (Ultra-long distance) where you really want to savor that snipe attack. Magic Killcams.... Probably wasn't such a good idea. Maybe if they would only trigger on Boss encounters, (the last enemy of a boss group, or just the boss himself if he's alone). That's being generous though. If they had done Magic Executions, I might be singing a different tune.

Yup.

Hopefully people will see through the hyperbole in due course. Rest of us will just have to wait. If you want a toggle option vote in the poll below.

Didn't they just add more kill moves for Two handers? I just rolled a 2 hand Nord Barbarian and I just saw a new kill animation where you tripple chop them vertically with your sword.

Saw another with the great axe where I grabbed the dude by the shoulders and then headbanged him to death! That was freakin sweet.

too often, too annoying, glitch to third person is great too isn't it?

they svck, put a switch.

if u like them, lucky you. u'll probly get half the next patch dedicated to more of them...
