I can agree that the game is good, as I mentioned Aleksandr, but not as good in my opinion as oblivion. I fear that as the games are continuously getting smaller and smaller as seen from Daggerfall to Morrowind and even Morrowind to Oblivion. The games are losing their magic despite all the cool things they added. shouts, marriage, forge use, mining, bounty seperation from hold to hold, werewolves (back from morrowind) and dual weilding are all awesome new additions, and the game looks great too, but if you look beyond that, the game is weakening in the core elements. The biggest incentive to going back and playing an elder scrolls game was the ability to choose a class to see how much different the game played, or to create your own class that suited you best, while skyrim seems to only want you to play one way and be good at everything, never once explaining why your character was an unskilled and untalented person until they got to skyrim. Whereas in past titles you felt as if your character had lived in this world their entire life. But I digress, skyrim is cool and I really came away liking it, but it just did not feel the same.
