Agree wholeheartedly. If there was one conspicuous, glaring flaw with Oblivion, it was the inability to use any ranged weapon other than bows. "Blah, blah, yaddi-yaddi-yaddi, whatever the blah" (their excuses in this interview for why the aren't putting them in Skyrim . . . . .) Total bullcrap. They ABSOLUTELY could put AT LEAST one or two more ranged weapon types in there, WITHOUT interrupting/ damaging/hindering gameplay or the final product in any way, as they so alledgedly claim. People have been bitching about this since only a few weeks after Oblivion released. Yet another example of the Devs doing only what THEY want (becoming too much in love with the creation of their "precious baby", like Dr. Frankenstein), as opposed to listening to the reasonable requests and groans of the fans, (whom by the way are they ones who supply the cash flow and subsequently subsidize a company and keep it afloat). yeah - I'm pretty pissed about this one - it could have been so easily corrected. . . ..
