Okay, so I've been looking over stuff on Skyrim and gotten worried. They speak of tightening the main storyline and making more cutscenes and making it quicker to fast travel and such.
Don't get me wrong, I like the sound of improvement for Skyrim but...
I also LIKED that I had to go and explore to find locations I couldn't fast travel to. I liked sprinting/walking from one town to the next and getting lost in the forest. I liked having a lot of options, quests and factions to choose from. (though I wish I could have joined the Necromancers or Mystic Dawn and done something of a story with them). All of this realism and having to explore to find places made it feel like I was living a game, and my char was me.
Im probably just paranoid but I really don't want them to cut down the exploring, storylines/quests and meat of the game just for better graphics and battle, like they did in FF13.
