Honestly, the thing I loved about Skyrim was that it was beautiful the first time I loaded it up. Admittedly, it really doesn't hold up nowadays but mods can make it better again. Mostly though, I feel that a large part of it was just my nostalgia for Oblivion. I would have much preffered that they put the kind of work into it that was put into Morrowind though. I want there to be forks everywhere that I can attack people with damnit!
EDIT: to actually put things back on track, I do look forward to what will come out of this. Microsoft these companies under them might get them to actually get their act together.
