I'll just keep this simple. I've been playing games since I bought my Speccy 48k. Bethesda games are my favourite games...although I own 100's of other games. I had and still have an Amega, Nintendo, PS1, 2 & 3 and other handheld game devices. Oblivion changed my life as a gamer - my favourite game ever. I am a PC gamer (but like the PS3). Steam has always served me well and I have had some top deals from them. I love Skyrim. I have no problems with Steam. It's all very easy...compared to the nightmare of PC gaming 20 years ago! At the risk of sounding like an old man (54)...you lot ought to just enjoy the great experience the staff at Bethesda have created for you. I think it is magical. If you don't like the way the Elder Scrolls series is going, then say your piece and then leave the millions who enjoy it alone. Don't keep hanging around these forums. I do love a great RPG. Fallout 3, Fallout NV and Skyrim are all I need.....
