Skyrim was already showing signs of being a "modern games" Compare the questlines in skyrim to oblivion. Or the super short dialog answers (even worse: fallout 4). Or muh daily quest or hundreds of dungeons t hat all conveniently have a path to the exit upon clearing it. Or the game being a joke/super easy. Or being able to be super powerful in everything in minutes of play. Or muh freedom of religion.
Nowhere near as bad as today of course but still
To be fair to the castle/ruins/dungeon designs, my house ALSO has an easily accessible exit once you go through it. Even has a one-way lock on it, so you can only access it once you've gotten through the house. It's the back door.
Yeah, it only kinda breaks the versimlitude, but as a player i do appreciate it not wasting my time. Especially since they removed Mark and Recall.
What freedom of religion? Talos worship is banned. There are only 8 altars in the Temple of the Nine. They have secret police that will lock stormcloaks (and their sympathizers) up and torture them to death if they are accused of it. There is an entire quest concerning this, "Missing in Action."
Altmer are israelis, khajeets are pajeets, imperials are americans and Dovahkin shouts slurs at the enemies.
most of those things have been in problems in elder scrolls since arena honestly
