The Slow-Motion Combat Glitch
In the clip, the player, engaged in dungeon combat, experiences a slowdown while dual-wielding weapons. The bug affects both third-person and first-person perspectives, showcasing the character's sluggish movements during right-hand attacks. Players find humor in the situation, with one user jokingly comparing the character's right hand to being "directed by Zack Snyder."
A potential solution suggested by the community involves the removal and re-addition of the Dual Flurry perk, possibly linked to the glitch. While Skyrim is known for its helpful glitches, this one disrupts gameplay rather than enhancing it.
Bethesda's Ongoing Support
Amid the glitch discovery, Bethesda recently rolled out Skyrim's first update for 2024 on PC, addressing issues related to the game's Creation content. However, not all players are pleased, as updates can impact mod compatibility. The community remains divided on whether Bethesda should continue supporting the twelve-year-old game or leave it untouched.
