Skyrim isn't as bad as I thought it'd be, being a watered-down console game and all. Still, it leaves much to be desired. Whoever decided that v-sync should be enabled by default without providing an ingame option to turn it off should be shot, for one.

Crafting is broken to such an extent that it's not even funny. You'd think that they would've learned not to allow skills to go beyond 100 by now, but apparently someone figured it was a great idea. Unsurprisingly, this breaks the game completely if you bother to pursue all three crafts (technically you only need two, since alchemy isn't necessary for godhood—you'll just be a more powerful god with it).

The skill trees are also poorly designed. Some are essentially useless (lockpicking anyone? Who on earth would spend points in this tree?), and some are just poorly conceived. You are required to pick up daedric smithing in order to make the best weapons, so even if you opt for light armour, the right side of the smithing tree is still the best, because it'll eventually get you dragonscale (the best light armour) and daedric weapons, whereas the left side will only get you glass weapons. Brilliant.

Of course, this means that a mage will never be nearly as powerful as a fighter, but on the bright side, you can't completely break the game with a mage build.

You haven't fought those masked protectors around the Dragon Shouts? Those are the most powerful bosses I've encountered. Snow Trolls weren't that hard (I'm all Daedric, Heavy Armor).

Havoc10K:
Dragonscale armor atm is better than glass, i'm light armored with one hand for day-to-day killing, but on dragons I use a 2-hand axe I made
Everything i have is LEGENDARY and enchanted.

It's stupid that daedric armor is the best heavy armor in the game since Dragonplate Armor should have been the best.

Also stupid that dragon smithing does not have any weapons to craft :P

Daedra = demigods from other planes
Dragons = normal mortals
Do the math.

SeventyX7:
Actually, the game goes to great lengths to express that Dragons are immortal, except when killed by Dragonborn.

No, Dragonborn is the only one that can permanently kill them by absorbing their souls. If anyone else kills them, they can be resurrected. That doesn't mean they are immortal.
