Let's see... how WOULD it balance the game?

First off, it isn't overpowered. From level 1-81, you can max MAYBE 3 and a half classes by getting every perk affiliated with that class. With 2 perk points, there's a substantial increase, but without being overpowered.

I could max Heavy Armor, Destruction, and Blocking with full perk points, which is sort of a good 'goal' to have when using a Spell-Sword character. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to, which would limit me.

I know spending points on things like Blacksmithing, and Lockpicking would be less helpful than that of spending the points on combat-related inquiries, but WHO doesn't like variety in a video game?


I don't want my character to be full-blown combat-oriented. I want my character to have a little variety with the other skills you can do ingame. The only problem is that if I DO that sort of thing, then I ruin my combat-experience.

Let's face it. It's UNDERpowered, and maybe that alone is an understatement. I want to skill in the game, but I also don't want to get torn apart by enemies. There's not a lot of variety that Bethesda is offering.

Now you explain to me. Unless you are a stubborn and die-hard combat person, then what part of what I just suggested makes the game too easy? If it's too easy for you, then it generally implies that you only care about combat, which can't make a valid counter-argument. There's too much variety.

It is grinding to level up to Lv81, I am only able to level up to soft cap and play my quest, otherwise i will be bored to death.

But if your about to max everything and make lv81 and want to play with 1 character only, why don't you grind your way to all max without level up, believe me it is just one go, save a master file.

Learn perk and play, when you want to play another play style, load your master file and learn some other perks.

Oh, what am i saying, of coz you don't need grinding, you can always use mod to gain all level and all perks to make yourself god.

feel the new perk system is way better then previous games simply because it is no longer possible to become a master in every art by simply learning a skill. Previous TES games have suffered under the fact that attributes and skill have made each character at endgame similar to eachother, why starta thief if you already have a mage at endlevel who can simply put a new outfit on and be just as good at sneaking and backstabbing as the best thief in the game?

The perk system and no classes was the right move for Bethesda, finally I can make a thief that is a thief and a mage that is a mage and those 2 characters will be totally different to play.
