There is a missing fact:

There is a mind control spell in Skyrim that can be used to force enemies to fight one another. Confirmed.

Isn't it a frenzy spell?

I still have some questions...

So a fan might say, 'You removed my eight attributes!' and my answer is, 'Which ones do you want?' 'Well I've got to have Intelligence, because it affects my magika!' Well, now we just have magika.

That's fine, but "Intelligence" is an easy one to answer. What if my answer is "Strength" or "Willpower" or "Personality" or "Luck"? How are encumbrance or magicka regeneration, for two examples, manifested in Health, Magicka, and Stamina?

Here's one thing I've been looking for:

the 10 races each have their own starting perks (just as they did in "Oblivion").

That's great to know!

The inclusion of the Heavy Armor skill is noteworthy. One must assume then, that there is also a Light Armor skill.

One of the articles referred to it as "Fury".

I loved the first paragraph of The Escapist article. Holy [censored]!
