My Cup of Tea has an English translation of a map for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim that showed up on the internet with Russian captions. Here's the original for comparison. Thanks Destructoid.

i expect something called an rpg to have the ability to define your character

Yeah, we've had this discussion about Oblivion a billion times. It was a shitty RPG, so stop calling it one. Yes, I can understand why people that ran out expecting Planescape would feel duped, but by the time many here bought it its RPG shortfallings were well known.

I just wanted a fun game. I expected an RPG. I got a top-notch action adventure game. I loved the crap out of it.
Skyrim should be the same. Poor RPG mechanics (which barely sound like they exist at all.) Great action adventure mechanics.

Should? Why should it be the same? Why should it feature poor RPG mechanics? When did that become acceptable?

Please let me point to another obvious example where simplification/streamlining led to an inferior product:

Dragon Age - Dragon Age 2




I have a nifty blue line!
