"lolol bad animations mayk bad gamm lolol"
Nope, but the lack of animation quality makes for boring combat, uninteresting conversations - both with the player and not - and when the player is designed as nothing but a playable NPC, drags down the experience as a whole.
Really, what is the most impressive fight you've ever seen in a Bethesda game? Scripted fights, such as the dragon and Dagon in Oblivion, do not count.
