Is it laziness? A skill issue? Did they really just not know how to do it and say “that’s good enough”?
3D rotations require quite a bit of MATH, it wouldn’t surprise me if they couldn’t figure it out and decided it wasn’t worth the effort.

In the original version of Oblivion, they run like they do in Morrowind.
It was until Skyrim that Bethesda properly implemented partially turning the character when running sideways or diagonally.
I wouldn’t necessarily chalk it up to laziness or whatever. Imo it’s just different games do different things differently. It doesn’t break my immersion or mean the game is less fun to me.
