While you make a valid arguement I do have to disagree in some ways. - If you don't like fast traveling use the caravans by stables to take you to major cities from there you should be able to walk anywhere you need to without fast traveling. - your first opinion is understandable, but people who want those kind of RPG's back are a only a few.
It's just boring and time consuming to most. People want to make progress and not have to keep opening their journal to find which house to go in. Also there are a good amount of puzzles in Skyrim.
IMO Skyrim is the best TES to date. Other than size I can't see why Morrowind is better. I just love how Bethesda actually changes up their game franchice's gameplay unlike most games.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
