On a related note, ******'s mom has really nice boobs, and it doesn't take much booze or encouragement to get her to let the puppies out of the pen...if you know what I mean...
LMAO

Gimme a sec I'll copy and paste from another thread
1. The weapon swinging is slow and stuck at the same pace, making it uncontrollable, boring and unfun.
2. Unlike Oblivion, equipping shields, swords and magic all at once is not possible, so combat is less varied, gets boring, and sometimes screw you over.
3. No durability on things means there's little challenge and again it gets boring.
4. Characters interrupting you while you talk to someone. Annoying and it means I can miss out on valuable information.
5. The landscape is copied and pasted over and over.
6. Minor things, like stupid looking animations, horses turning on you when you attack their owner, and really long loading times.
I appreciate I didn't do much quests or see much of the game, but if the gameplay flat out sucks, it gets in the way and ruins the experience.
1. I for one am fine with it, but how fast it swings depends on what kind of weapon it is. I mean, how fast do you expect to swing with a battleaxe?
2. Agreed, but I haven't really seen much 'Shield + magic combos,' but the introduction of dual wielding opens up many different variations of combat in itself.
3. The removal of durability makes the game slightly easier, but armor breaking was a nuisance more than anything.
4. This one makes me laugh. Keep dialogue subtitles on (on by default) and general off (off by default). If anyone ever interrupts you, you can read the bottom of the screen. This reason is just grasping at straws.
5. Name one game with a large landscape that doesn't have similar terrain in certain areas. No game developers are ever going to spend that much time making every single area as 'fresh and new' as possible. Every game does it.
6. Some animations are pretty stupid, but are an improvement over Oblivion (since we seem to be comparing it to that). Loading times? Mine are fast because I play on the PC so I don't know what to tell you about that.
Lastly, basically all of these were opinions as you stated so I don't know why I bothered typing this out. Sure Skyrim is a step down from it predecessors in some places, but it is vastly improved in other places.
