Your Personal Pros/Cons to Skyrim

Post » Mon Oct 17, 2011 1:15 pm

What aspects of Skyrim are you most looking forward to? Which ones are you not? For me, I'm pretty excited about the questlines for the various factions, the crafting system, and toe-to-toe dragon fights. But, I dislike the absence of a first-person view while on horseback or the fact they removed spell-making. In the end, my pros far outweigh my cons. Im pretty much 95% optimistic so far. What about you?

PRO: Everthing else.
