As if the running animation and health regen wasn't enough.

Skyrim is worse than Oblivion in every way

Me after playing Skyrim:
Why even play it at all?

I don't see the point of resetting a skill unless you gain access to more perks for doing so.

That's exactly what it does.
When you've maxed out a weapon skill in a TES game, you stop using that weapon type and switch to another one. You've got to keep those level-ups flowing somehow.
This sounds pretty fucking dumb, though. They could've just made it possible to raise skills above 100.

They probably can't.

Because, as seen in all of their games, they fucking suck at coding.
Buggy shitty designed games. That is the real reason they can not into spears and ladders.
DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Skyrim is still better than Dragon Age 2.Hehe this is awesome 3000 comments of why one sandbox piled with shit is better than the other sandbox flooded with piss
It's a nice looking hiking simulator. DA2 is ugly as sin and railroaded as fuck.

I would rather play on a railroad than hike up a mountain. There's always the chance to see a train with people on it.

Can't wait for the announcement of The Elder Scrolls VI: Mods Will Fix It.
In the meantime, I'm playing the Elder Kings total conversion mod for Crusader Kings 2. There are almost more spells available than in Skyrim.

Morrowind is tedious, Oblivion retarded and Skyrim infested with consolitis. Can't say I full on hate the series, like I do Dragon Age, but it's painfully mediocre.
Although, I suppose, Skyrim is by far the best recent major game you can buy for consoles right now.

So far I rate Skyrim as "Mods have fixed it".
Sure it's not Morrowind, nor Daggerfall (but it contains callbacks to both), but in Oblivion there was nothing worth fixing in the first place.

I should write a review on Skyrim now that all the DLCs are out.

I stand by my first analysis. This product took a step in the right direction. However, it still has many weaknesses. For instance, the story is so ridiculously bland (as well as the writing - there's no character!), that exploration is always a more attractive option to the player. Yet, exploration is like a leveled loot list (though better than OB), and requires a senseless grind through trivial items applied to a cookie cutter balance sheet.
In fact, it feels like the balancing of these games has become so contrived that it ruins the creativity of the design. This is not an MMO. They should focus on static gear progression, gear upgrading (through skills - NPCs), and deeper character progression (perks were a good step in this direction). Technically this product was a marvel of modern computing (amazing that they pulled that off on old X/P hardware - anyone should be intrigued by the possibilities on future hardware, 8GBs of RAM will be astounding for this), and "good for what it is" gaming.
8/10, worth purchasing (if you like sandbox, hiking simulators), if you waited this long you might as well wait for a packaged game of the year release. (Do not buy this for PS3 - it is a broken product)
