Even if this ludicrous slander was true, Id rather have nostalgia then bandwagon jumping. Skyrim is far from the perfect game. Everything seems better when it just comes out (seriously, this is a glorified "oooh, shiny". Here here for some actual objective opinion.

Thanks for that. Was waiting for an objective response, rather then the typical kneejerk stuff.
