Of course, many features that you knew and loved from the predecessors were missing (creating magic, for example) and many guild quests were very short and hasty (just started with the companions quest line, next day I'm their boss^^) and yes, the dragons are no longer a threat after a few hours, but my goodness, it was still an awesome gaming experience. The atmosphere of this Nordic landscape came across really strong, the dungeon design was greatly improved compared to its predecessor and the main quest wasn't that uninteresting, even if it wasn't particularly deep or surprising. And hey, no Enderal without Skyrim, so I'll always be grateful for that alone.
