This is probably the first PC title I ever played that didn't impress me at all on ultra settings with everything maxed. The visuals are my biggest disappointment with Skyrim.

Well it is running on the same engine from Oblivion and the Bethesda Fallouts so there's just so much they could improve over those titles. We'll only see a huge leap in the graphics department when they shift to a new engine.

That being said, the biggest upgrade that Skyrim had (IMO) over Oblivion is the animations. Heck 3rd Person View is now a viable and very playable choice and that alone is a huge improvement. Lightning and ambience are also another improvement, Skyrim boasts an amazing lightning system (kinda like the Real Environments mods that gave Oblivion an insane lightning system).
