Even if you love the game, there are plenty of things to be disappointed with.

Some of you may not be disappointed with anything, while others, especially those who are avid TES gamers, feel shafted yet again.

I encourage you all to share your pain, or your lack thereof on this page.

Please, no flaming, and if I didn't list your specific case, please specify.

If you are not satisfied with Skyrim at all, my poll is not for you. Yes, biased poll is biased. OMG.

Framerate.

At first I was excited about perks... but I think it limits your character far too much. This is my only complaint.

yup this. fallout 3 style perks for elder scrolls sounded great, but in the end we just got a way over-complicated and confusing "perks" system.

My complaints are the bugginess and current lack of support. I'm hoping this changes after thanksgiving, but so far Bethesda is not keeping up with their promise to have more frequent patches.

Hah, i wonder if anyone would put Skyrim is ported from the PC :celebration:

I've read a few posts of people claiming that Skyrim is a PC port. Console players are just as ignorant as us sometimes.

Updated.

Far to buggy as quest can't be completed. Severe lack of dialog options. It has been dubbed down, I feel restricted overall in character progression, I feel like everyone is leveled with me, that or the game is just way to easy. The graphics in reference to texture pop in or just overall a very close LOD and it turns out to be a distraction during gameplay. Dragons are buggy and the skeleton respawns can pop up almost right on top of you at any moment. Random, although seldom CTD's.

I definitely feel you on those dragon skeletons spawning.

I think I am most bothered with the lack of creatable spells. I have no idea why this was taken out.

I do not have problems with a single thing you listed

Skyrim is dumbed down for a TES game.
Skyrim has a severe lack of dialogue options.
Skyrim has broken skill mechanics.
Skyrim is too easy.

I voted for these (Minus the skill mechanics one, saw it after I voted).

Skyrim is dumbed down for a TES game.

My largest criticism and one that disappointed me the most. Besides the selection of perks, and some character abilities (Only a select few), your characters will not be substantially different from any other character. Sure, you can choose to play a certain way, but if you wanted to change to a bow mid-game from using two-handers, its not gonna hurt you all that much. I realize Bethesda was trying to get rid of the "Unnecessary RPG junk" but Stat points aren't difficult to manage, and they're still in the system, just a lot less noticeable. Since when does TES cater to non-RPG people anyway? I just don't get that part...

Skyrim has a severe lack of dialogue options.

This part is kinda strange for a TES game... I've run across countless quests that only have a single option. I don't really want to help some maniac crash a ship full of innocent people, why can't I turn him into the guards? Sure, I could kill him, but that would get me arrested or committing murder, made little sense to me. Some quest lines like the DB are obviously for evil characters, though, but Misc quests should be able to be dealt with either way.

Skyrim has broken skill mechanics.

This is somewhat true in a few areas... The enchanting/ alchemy/ smithing exploit is just freaking ridiculous, for crying out loud, you couldn't see that coming? Then theres the part where its pointless to even get higher armors once you find one that looks epic, you can max out their protection and damage regardless of the fact that they're level 0 or 20 smithing. Also, dual wielding weapons standing power attacks are ridiculously overpowered... I beat a boss down with dual pickaxes...

Skyrim is too easy.

Mostly this is due to some of the things I discussed above, but in general, the game is too easy. It started to get somewhat challenging when new Dragons were introduced, and I still have a bit of trouble with mages, but overall its not hard to chug a few potions, use my shout (Massively boosts attack speed), and chop the guts out of anything in my way in seconds with dual Ebony War Axes.



However, despite all this, I love the game. I can't really ever expect to get a perfect game, but Skyrim is good enough, every time I start to get bored I find even more to whet my appetite for adventure. Once the main quest got boring, I discovered I could hunt for shouts. When that got boring, I discovered how awesome being a Werewolf is. Still looking forward to whats next, I know its out there though

*EDIT* I'll just list the ones I would have voted for, but I won't bore you with a paragraph on them.

-Skyrim's guilds don't have enough depth or quests.

-Skyrim's dragons are UP.

-Skyrim's hawks/eagles are too hard to hit with arrows. (AND FLYING DRAGONS.)

-Skyrim has a severe lack of creatable items. (Eh, more like some of them are useless, half agree with this.)

-Skyrim has a severe lack of armor slots. (I just miss the second ring slot, lol)

-Skyrim has auto regen.

And my only 2 complains lie in the first section.

-Dumbed down (yeah, I'm among those who loved athletics, acrobatics and tons of "useless" spells from morrowind)
-Skill mechanics (Destruction in mind, I have no problems with Smithing/Enchanting combo or something else being OP)

Ignorance is bliss :icecream:

Nah I don't mean to be mean.
I just really wish I felt the way you do.

I am so infinitely pissed at them for making the game the way they did, but I still love the [censored] out of it.

It will never be as good as Daggerfall, unless the mods prove themselves more worthy than they have for Morrowind/Oblivion (and they won't).
But it is still a great game to play, and it is dropping my GPA like flies, which is the ultimate goal, right?

Well, about that part, I think we have to choose here - either we have lots of dialogues, like in Morrowind, or we have them with sound.
While guys like me and other RPG fans might as well go for the silent option, I seriously doubt it's an option for the larger part of audience.

P.S. Can you edit your poll please? Add an option of "Nothing from this part" or something like that, since we have to vote in both sections (forum mechanics)

I understand what you're saying to an extent, but seriously, they could take out half of the useless options (and they exist, and lead to nowhere) and add some dynamic choices.

I think that worked.

I like the game when I'm playing it (assuming I'm in the mood and have adequate time), but when I come to the forums I like the game less. I'm not going to blame it on other peoples negativity as much as it makes me turn from fun mode to critique mode. At the end of the day it's a single player game and the only one I've bought since the last time around (and I did buy Morrowind in between). I do not know why we all hold these games to such ridiculously high standards. I think most of the people complaining will still tell you they got their $60 dollars worth, but "it could have been better."

Skyrim doesn't have any of the fun unique spell effects that previous TES games have had ex: water walking, jump, slow-fall or even non-combat spells besides for trans mutate and the zero application water breathing
Skyrim doesn't have spell making
Skyrim has less item content then the previous TES games in general ex: no spears or non-bow projectiles
Skyrim doesn't have mix and match armor ex: no deadric gauntlet (L) glass gauntlet ®

I know what you mean. Me, personally...
I definitely got my $60.00 worth.
But I would gladly pay $260.00 for a game that wasn't half-assed. (Even if I had to sell an organ.)

Armor slots are most certainly on my list of "musts" to be changed. They really gimped us RPGers in this field.
Oblivion was bad enough, and they had to take it to the next level.

Where's the option that lets me vote for the garbage UI?
