Wow. I mean really. You all know the hate that I have for TES but Skyrim looks even worst than Oblivion! I watched a LIVE leaked video showing someone playing the game from the prologue. The AI of enemies is DUMB. One enemy just ran into a wall while the character's allies attacked him.

Another enemy allowed the player to attack him several times and never once blocked.

No wonder why Bethesda is removing all the leaked footage from YouTube and their own forums, it seems that they don't want people to see Skyrim for what it truly is.

All the dragons in the universe can't save this game IMO. I very sorry for those who have hyped this game up. I'm sure there will be many who enjoy it but I'm also sure that there will be those who will be greatly disappointed like Morrowind fans were disappointed with Oblivion.

Everything about Skyrim yells dumbed down, modern and steamlined and no, that's not the way that RPG's should be heading. I loved Dragon Age: Origins for the old feel it had and two years later. Bioware release Dragon Age 2 which feels completely "new". There's still an audience for old type RPG's. Dark Souls proves that and so does Divinity 2.

Edit:

I just learned about new information for Skyrim:

You can only equip one armor piece which means that the armor system has been dumbed down. Further more, this means that there's not much character customization in terms of appearance.
