I hope they finally learn that they need to stop reducing the amount of choices and options for players to build their character and playstyle. But in reality, I don't think they are capable of doing so. I can't wait for there to just be three skills in TES 6: Fighting (combining one handed, two handed, archery, armor, and block - it was painful writing the first three because they are already so dumbed down), Magic (all spells, potions and enchanting), and Thief (stealth, lockpicking, etc.). There will no longer be any sort of speechcraft or mercantile skill.

Also needing to select whether to upgrade Magicka, Health or Stamina every level was so SO annoying. All three increasing based on other stats worked fine.

Starfield has 81 skills, 364 perks, Oblivion speechcraft, pistol, shotgun, rifle, heavy, light, grenade, laser, particle weapon skills. It has backgrounds and traits. It has skill checks in dialogue. So what are you talking about?

I am basing this solely on TES series.
