Here's why. Instead of making a spell with all three elements, and using it against everything, you have to choose which element fits the situation. As well as enemy weaknesses and resistances, shock attacks magicka as well as health, fire continues to burn, and frost can slow your enemies.
Also new spell types, so there are fireballs and flamethrower, as well as a large blast centered on the character, and trap runes you can cast on the ground.
