No matter how I start off, I almost always end up being a kind of uber battlemage character with maxed out destruction and blade skills. Makes the game slightly monotonous at times.
Probably due to the over-generalized skill system. Suddenly, 'blunt, axe, spear, short blade, long blade, hand-to-hand and marksman' got reduced to "Blade, blunt, marksman, hand-to-hand'. And, of course, they eliminated the medium armor type. Hence, no need to specialize.
Not to mention full access to all the trainers in every guild...ahhhgrghfdgf.
