Agreed, as much as I love the TES games; they are incredibly shallow and the world feels like a canvas for you to hop around on with the traces of previous visits all but gone when you return somewhere. They also have severely lacking AI, weird dialogue and poor writing, not to mention the fact that Bethesda have chosen to make the mechanics more shallow in Skyrim.
Fallout 3 and, to a slightly less extent; Fallout: New Vegas are prime examples of Bethesda's main problem: they cannot build vast worlds with any believeable interaction and 95% of the locations turn out to be exactly the same, with the exact same enemies or populated by two dimensional NPC's with the same voice actors and faces. Side-quests are also stupidly boring and repetetive. Like I said in another thread a few years back; if you keep the same pawns and the same rules and pit the player against a worthless opponent with no mind for strategy, could you honestly say that you have improved the game of chess by making the board several times larger?
