how was skyrim bad? I mean, the story wasn't mass Effect, but it was still pretty darn good. Plenty of memorable characters, world was easily the most interesting of the Elder Scrolls series....but that's just me.

Definitely had repetition issues and performance problems on PS3.

THe funny thing about Skyrim (and most Bethesda games) is that most people don't even do the story.  I'm playing through Skyrim again and while I'm maybe about 15 hours on my current save, I haven't gone and seen the greybeards yet.  The previous save where I spent maybe 50-60 hours, I barely got past the greybeards.

The only characters name I remember is Lydia because she constantly pisses me off (she gets in my way) and the only other NPC I remember is the Nightingale chick.  It's not that unbelievable to not like Skyrim for the story or characters.

Maybe I've just played it too much, but even through my first playthrough, I  had no problems remembering and thinking fondly of much of the cast.  Lydia was annoying, yes, but I remembered most of the Jarls, the greybeards, the different faction leaders, I liked them all.  I agree their presence was muted by their stiff acting, if you get my drift, but I thought they were all pretty damn well done, as far as writing and unique visuals are concerned.  

OF course that's just me.  I totally see why someone would have a hard time remembering these people.  Then again, it's MUCH more detailed and well developed than its predecessor; that's a point I will not concede.  I never finished oblivion, but I played and beat skyrim 100% twice (once as the stormcloaks, one as the empire), and I did the Dawnguard review.  

I liked it, but it had its issues.  I jsut don't see the issues listed as significant issues.  worth noting, of course, but nothing significant, I wouldn't say
