No kidding. Or how we just got used to Morrowind's erm..."unique" hit system and weapons actually collided in Oblivion, with real physics!

And I still remember that trailer shot of walking down the hallway with the traps and casting a fireball while still holding a sword. It was such a crazy feature update!

"Close shut the jaws...OF OBLIVION"

And...yeah...today's game industry is more "How can we make Ai enhanced 24k textures so the game is a 1.5 TB install, but streamline it so entire armor sets are a single item and we remove half the skills from previous titles."

I really liked Skyrim, but definitely disagreed with how "opinionated" the games got about how you were supposed to play them...
