Yeah at face value the combat is kaka.(combat is not why anyone plays elder
scrolls)
To have fun with it you just have to see the "combat" as a representation
of combat based on your stats and equip.
It's basically a tabletop game with a huge and deep system set in a giant
3d world.
That would leave the character as the translator between the game world and
the game system.
Maybe to get the characters to physically adhere to all the shit going on
was just too hard so they kept it in the background.
That may be the trade off.

Skyrim - Most of the aspects of the character are represented on screen but
it is more simple than Morrowind.
Morrowind - Very little of the character aspects are represented on screen
but that allows them to go wild with the sytem.
