How Skyrim plays depends on a character's strengths and weaknesses. In theory, not being able to do everything with a single character improves the game's replay value. Also in theory, being limited in your perks allows you to enjoy a particular play style longer by preventing you from acquiring powers that render a play style obsolete. Take a thief who must sneak to survive because his combat skills are mediocre. Give him weapon prowess and you could negate his need to sneak.

Making all perks available to a single character might not be so bad, though. Even if all perks were accessible, you could still limit your character by choosing not to take perks. You could also choose to avoid using certain skills. If you did decide not to limit yourself, becoming a master of all skills takes a lot of time, which means it can be a long time before two different characters start to play the same.

How about no? That would defeat the purpose of playing the game because it would be impossible to level up if you have nothing to use your unlock on...

I think it could work actually... it would take forever to get all the perks, There are 252 perks all together, so it would take 252 level increases to get there (an absurd amount of time - but I would totally do it) and you would truly be the most powerful and skilled thing in the world (a jack of all trades). I know it is not possible to increase your level 252 times, so there would have to be a major overhaul in how the leveling system works.

What does that even mean? XD

EDIT: also tehre is a mod that uncaps the skill levels beyond 100, and it can be customized. That will let you level up a lot more.

Oh dear gods no.
By Akatosh I envoke the Mythic
By Julianos I recant this logosphere.
By Mara I refute this as not-loved
By Kynareth I ask you what breath has this?
By Stendarr, it shows one.
By Dibella I prophesize that it will hurt you in the end.
By Zenithar, runes are cast against
And finally by Talos the Bones will not bear.


No, no and nine times no.

You mean literally pay for Perk points?


Why cant we just receive Perk Points when finishing the inevitable DLC storyline(s)?

Doesn't this ruin the purpose of specialized characters?

It would make everyone the same. Like Oblivion.

They would never mess with the core in such a way. What kind of DLC is that? More like cheat code.
