Sprinting power attacks
When I sprint power attack with a two handed weapon, my character keeps moving forward until I stop attacking or do some other action. This makes combat annoying, and I recently found this issue actually was an issue since launch and has yet to be addressed by Bethesda. If this is a bug, I find it pitiful that they have not even put any effort into fixing. Nevertheless, any input on how to fix this ailment is appreciated.

I mean cmon bethesda I should be able to do atleast a 180 degree turn in the middle of my swing to hit the enemy behind me! So dumb this BUG! You guys act like my ULTRA BIGASS TWO HANDED GREAT HAMMER is heavy or something, in my inventory it only weighs 20!

Mate you're sprinting and attacking with all your power. That's a lot of inertia. You shouldn't be able to suddenly do a 420.
In fact, I use TKHitStop which basically applies this effect to more attacks and enemies as well. Doesn't feel very jarring at all.

even if it was a bug, you thinking its dumb that you cant do a 180 while swinging a massive two handed weapon with all you've got, makes you an idiot.

technically its easier to do a 180 with a greatsword swinging than youd think, if its swinging sideways you can use its momentum to turn yourself... but it wouldnt make for a good attack afterwards since you lose the momentum you wanted to put into the attack and its "flailing around instead of having proper footwork"

Well see now you're just making yourself look like an idiot as I've never actually said that at all, you're just putting words into my mouth. What makes it broken is normal attacking after the sprint attack makes your character continue sprinting for the entire duration until you either stop attacking or stand still, it has nothing to do with what ever the hell you're saying. Learn how to read and comprehend properly before passing judgement.
