I mean let's face it. Skyrim is a buggy and glitchy console port. Textures are low res and blurry and look 2-3 years older than they are. Meshes are also nothing special. The flow of the gameplay itself is absolutely linear, it plays like Call of Duty in TES world. Gameplay is streamlined to a point where there is little to no freedom, and limited fun. This game is dumbed down to appeal a very wide crowd. There is no detail, style, depth, secrets, original concept. And also the programming code itself is very poorly writen i.e. redundant.

From a gaming pov, technology pov and art pov, this game is an epic fail. The only reason it sells is because it has vikings and dragons, which countless kids console owners will buy for no other reason.

Subjective.

The rest? Kinda subjective too but I know where you are coming from. TES isn't alone in this though.

The lack of respect displayed here is staggering, just because people disagree with your personal subjective opinion doesn't mean they are mindless sheep and "console kids".
