Modern action RPGs have a fluidity to both the player and camera movement that makes everything feel like you’re playing an action movie, whereas Skyrim’s turn-and-slash controls don’t have nearly the same sort of impact. Skyrim is still a great game even today, but its movement controls are starting to feel a bit dated-there's no sliding, no vaulting, and no grappling hook to swing through the Nordish mountains like some sort of Viking Spider-Man.īut what really makes Skyrim feel old is how everything moves in third-person mode.
