Another thing that goes along with what you are saying: The reward for finishing the main quest should be awesome. In Oblivion, you get shitty armor; in Fallout 3, you get jack shit :|. It might give they player incentive to finish the main quest. Also, I am not sure how dragon shouts will work after you defeat Alduin (or whatever the final boss will be). I mean, if the dragons are gone, you can't absorb anymore souls. So, I guess if that is the case, there would still be no motivation for me to complete the main quest.
