Unique Swimming Animations

My Argonian made me think of this. Because of the passive, all it does is make the animation cycle faster.

So why not just give Argonians a unique swimming animation that reflects their Race and speed passive? Maybe something like how snakes slither through the water, using their tails to propel them. Maybe even add unique swimming animations to personalities as well, since some already affect walking and running.

Less seriously, have Khajiit do the doggy paddle.

    I agree. By this way, Slaughterfishes can know which type of meats they are going to eat.

    Like in Morrowind! Beast folk has different swimming animation than mans or mers. I agree, also current animation could be better for all races.

    You do tend to find yourself in water quite a few times, yes. Its just most actively avoid it at all costs because of how slow it is when what people only care about is sprinting from one placs to another.

    Slow down, relax, smell the water lilies.

    If I wanted to smell the water lilies I’ll go in my back yard and admire my pond...

    When I play Argonian, I tend to find myself in water more often then other characters. It would be cool for a racially unique swimming style.

    You can swim pretty fast when you use rapid maneuver before you enter the water. Depending on what the terrain around you is like, it may be faster to cut a line through some water than trying to navigate on a mount.

    I definitely wouldn't mind having some kind of crocodilian swimming animation.

    idg why khajiit in particular would do the doggy paddle considering physiologically in this case they're the same as the other mer and the men. I could only see argonians getting a unique swimming animation
