User blog comment:Draevan13/The streamlining of the Elder Scrolls series, and some Skyrim flaws./@comment-83.191.244.82-20141109111400

Agreed. Also. I think the streamlining makes itself clear in more areas. You regain health awfully fast. Just run away for a while during combat and you're back to fight. In Morrowind if you hadn't filled yourself up with potions and spells you had to sometimes turn back, exit a dungeon and come back 10 lvls later because it was just too hard or you werent prepared for the dangers. I NEVER had to quit a dungeon in Skyrim. The enemies levels change compared to mine and it's never too hard. Also at the end of every dungeon there's a fast exit. Knowing this I always dare to jump down a hole whilst in Morrowind I never knew if I would ever make it back. It doesn't give me the shivers like Morrowind used to.

Also the quest markers is part of this streamling thing. Many have critizised this thing where you don't really have to talk or listen to anyone in game, just follow these pointers even when it's obvious your in-game character would have no clue where to go. Here comes the fast travel too - i'm not against it entirely but it should be replaced with boats and wagons and stuff lile that like in Morrowind and you should have to pay a small sum to travel faster - not just jump from place to place.

It's not just the enemies that levels up with you - it's also the loot and this ruins some experience for me. In Morrowind you could trick a dungeon. You could go into a lvl 40 dungeon while being at lvl 10 and be good at running or sneaking and just run in and take loot that weren't for your level to take and by just being smart or lucky you could get precious stuff.

Also while not fighting ad much for accomplishments lile you had to do in Morrowind or Oblivion, when completing questlines nobody seems to notice. You win the war for the empire, kill Ulfric Stormcloak and nobody in the world seems to notice. It's almost like it weren't meant to be done. The same with most questlines in Skyrim. Don't get me wrong. Skyrim is in many ways a really good game and I enjoyed it very much. But these things are going in the wrong direction for me and I don't know if I should be looking forward for the next one.
