I admit, having tried Skyrim a bit, I really don't like it that much.
Have graphics maxed out, and can't say it's any better looking than Oblivion. Find the graphics definitions at times...not great. For example staircases don't really seem to have clearly defined steps. Not to mention the plantlife looks not so great.
Amazed that for a late 2011 release game, I can run it on a first generation i7 (3.2GHz) + 12 GB RAM with ATi 6870 card at max video settings without stutter.
Having a horrible time with audio in the game. Maybe it's a problem with the integrated sound card, but either get no audible sound when characters talk, or it's completely directional.
The introduction quest reminds me of things like Medal of Honor Pacific Assault ... follow the guy exactly or *poof* you die.
And spiders... bleh... why'd it have to be spiders... bah.
Already missing the stats/skills system of Morrowind and even that of Oblivion.
Seems like they completely neutered the species/race and gender differences.
At least its not Bloodmoon scaling. Egads. I hit that at Clevel 70+ I think it was. Talk about wolf packs. Don't think I ever finished it. Real pain killing swarms of nuisance enemies.
