I think this is some evidence of dumbing down, but I don't recall there being puzzles almost at all in Oblivion. I think that the puzzles are stupid and idiotic.

Other opinions? have you ever compared the fact that maybe you yourself are smarter than you were when you played oblivion? games seem harder when your younger, and everything seems so shiny and perfect until you go back. as someone else said,  there were quests in oblivion that gave no quest markers, go back and tell me those made any sense. this game hasnt been dumbed down so much as its been made more fluid and efficient, i like that i can change my class and change my 'sign' (standing stone) whenever i want, and if you dont like finding them then that must be a part of the game you find challenging, the actual adventuring part...
