Game Informer has posted up some info on Skyrims combat. According to the preview, Bethesda will be reworking the combat system to make wielding weapons or magic on both hands possible. You can have a spell on one hand and a sword in the other which should make for a more fluid combat. Using the Havoc Behaviour animation tech, they’ve made it important to think tactically when you would have to block and attack(instead of just wailing away with your sword). You’ll now stagger(camera shake for added effect) as you take a hit and wont be able to hit back immediately. They seem to be taking some inspiration for combat from other games. The melee weapon and ranged weapon combat reminds me of the tactical/surgical strikes of combat in Mount & Blade. And Todd Howard openly states the wielding magic in a hand was heavily inspired by Bioshocks plasmids.
