Obv Combat Feels Better than Skyrim
Often said, often repeated and forever true.

It just feels better, especially the melee.

Of course it does, since you are not pinned in place when making melee or ranged attacks.
Skyrim restricts your movement and forces into slow and clunky animations in every combat action which doesn't feel good

A straight up lie.

Apologize.

True, by a lot. Hitting a blocking dagger with a warhammer and being stunned for 5 minutes was never fun. Glad they didn't add that crap back in Skyrim

You have more movement freedom and the camera doesn't ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ shake every time you attack

But it's exactly the same in Skyrim and you're also stunned for 5 minutes each time you make an attack

Pee vs poo fight. After Daggerfall none of TES games had particulary good combat anyway.
When Skyrim was released, I played it for about an hour, used some cheats to check out the late-game content, and then uninstalled it. I didn’t touch it again for like five or six years until the modding scene really took off. While the updated graphics and animations were nice, all the Dragonborn stuff and the new magic combat system felt like a major downgrade compared to the previous game.
Only thing about Oblivion combat I really like is durability. There is nothing like charging into a hoard of angry Daedra only for your sword or your armor to break and you got nothing to replace it with.

It wasn't until Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom I got moments like that again. God I miss durability and corrode armor/weapon spells. They added a whole new dimension to combat

No, I do enjoy Oblv combat more, especially the melee. It feels better, more responsive.

Skyrim melee feels like...nothing really, whiffle ball bat swinging kinda stuff.
