Remember that problem basically ruined Skyrim's replayability beyond testing new mods: you could do basically experience everything the game has to offer you in just one playthrough, and as a consequence basically none of your decisions mattered to any significant degree. Particularly remember how the decision to kill Paarthurnax, which should've been one of the hardest decisions the player has to make in the game, is rendered irrelevant due to the Blades and the Greybeards no longer having any truly significant role in the story after that point. So what if the Blades won't support you anymore? They wouldn't of even if you did do as they asked. Newfangled 'gamer kids' no longer have the patience or the will to bother with doing different playthroughs where they actually try to make different decisions beyond "Let's play as an Orc instead" or "I might try not to horrifically break the game by abusing smithing and enchantments this time, not promising anything".
I'm sorry, I can just never get over the fact that I became the Archmage of the Mage's Guild with an Orkish Barbarian who knew nothing about magic beyond the two starter spells.
