I honestly have no idea. It is very possible there are LESS spells as there will likely be a nuke taken to the Summons, shields, and avatars.

Then there are skills that have been folded into each other.

-First Aid is combined with Doctor and Cure Poison.
-Fortitude is likewise combined with a few other skills

I THINK this game will have more, I know they shown us ALL the skill icons, so we could count those.


if we trust the picture posted, it was about 200 skills without the racial skills, if I recall well.
DOS:EE has about 140.

And yeah some skills in DOS that were too situational (cure poison with a touch range ...) got merged and improved with other spells.
It is possible a specific spec line has a bit less skills but overall you have more spells in the game.
You are more encouraged to multispec as well as you don't have minimum stat requirements to successfully cast a spells. So even if one spec line has 15 skills instead of 18. You can more easily find skills elsewhere.
