Looked pretty much like the previous games, just a bit more prettier.

Um....okay?

Dual hand magic, dual hand weapons, new custom animations, quests structured on character's path (combat-related, crafting, thievery, etc)? Amazing music? You really are quite the cynic lallara.

My opinion is more or less the same as lallara. Besides the fact i hate Elder Scrolls for their dull stories and spread out repetitive and boring quests (which is a personnal opinion about freedom in a game and not a flaw in terms of gamedesign), I do not find this especially gorgeous. Their 3D palette is quite standard, if not tasteless.

I'll be sure to actually play a Nord for this.

Being a Khaajit that is the resurrected Dragonborne is...well, the ultimate suspension of disbelief breaker.

Graphics wise I am inclined to agree. Oblivion with some graphical enhancement mods matched this game in some respects.

New mechanics are always fun though.

I was hoping they'd let us be a Sload. I'd be a sload soap merchant. I'd make the sload soap myself. Using my body.
