Is it just me or has anyone else noticed that the roads in Skyrim are quite a bit safer to travel on than say in Cyrodill, I've come across very few attacks when walking than I did in Oblivion, where we had bandits and marauders who attacked on sight, where the bandits in Skyrim would warn you to keep your distance first. Quite ironic as I'd expect the situation to be the opposite with Cyrodill being the capital and more 'civilized' and all, compared to the generally more untamed feel of Skyrim.
