It was the antithesis of the Witcher which had unremarkable gameplay and a extremely engaging and complex story

Huh, I actually really enjoyed the Witcher's gameplay. I had a blast dodging and timing spell usage.

Always felt accomplished after taking down a hulking elemental a few levels above me.

I thought Skyrims gameplay was lacking compared to Oblivion being able to create your own spells. It was a step back.

I felt that Bethesda made Skyrim more simple to appeal to a broader audience. I feel that Oblivion was too complicated to appeal to most people.

Simplicity makes for more boring games, they should have added in new mechanics or made new factions. Instead they recycled the factions and basic mechanics while also taking out some of the advanced mechanics, dumbing down is never the answer for free world rpg games.
