I never did like the way armour was combined together in Oblivion. I loved making my character look however I wanted in Morrowind. Sure most of the time I gave him armour from the same set, different sets would look odd, but it still makes you feel more free than being forced to wear each part of the same set. And it was annoying in Oblivion when I wanted to wear the Black Hand robes as well as those boots you get from Teinaava but couldn't.
I'm not really that bothered about it, it'd just be nice to see it go back to Morrowind's way of handling equipment. At least Bethesda's reasons for it show they care about the game itself, I guess.
EDIT: But the people bitching about it like you mentioned are just fucking stupid.

Although the term 'endearing' feels kind of patronising it did make me laugh.GrizzlerBorno said:
The PC I'm purchasing for Skyrim would make more than your eyebrows waggle...I'm so freaking excited.
I know right, take away ONE PIECE OF ARMOUR and you might as well take away the quest system leveling up the huge open world and the dialogue choiceStall said:
People hate when Bethesda tries new things. They made armor simpler in Oblivion than Morrowind. I think there were 9 parts to every armor set. IN Oblivion, it went down to 5. IN Skyrim, we will have 4. And I don't mind one bit because, to me, I never wear pants and chest piece if they don't match. it looks stupid. and looking at most of the mods in Oblivion, no one will care there, either, because you'll still be able to make every female character look like a slut. (seriously, the TESnexus has a lot of mods, but the hot files are always female armors that make them look horribly slutty.)
The one ring on each hand thing is a pretty standard RPG convention. The general idea is that more than one magic ring per hand has the rings fighting themselves and canceling each other's magic.madwarper said:
At least that's how I run it when I DM/GM. Don't know the official Elder Scrolls Explanation.
Oh my god, that's so hardcore. See, more devs should be like Volition. THEY know how to cater to the audience that really cares, unlike these Bethesda douches, building a giant world full of unique characters and an incredible amount of quests, and improving upon the framework in almost every way, it's few flaws easily moddable. Those assholes took our pants.The Woolly One said:
Yeah I noticed on the metacritic for Command and Conquer 3.BENZOOKA said:
There is a green on the top list for being the same as before and polished.
Then nearly a 0 on the right for being "exactly the same tired shit".
You cannot win
.I have a new goal in Oblivion now.Shemming said:
If it means more armor sets, and better looking armor, I'm in. There wasn't enough armor in Oblivion. There were like 4 sets for heavy and light and that was it. It sucked. Bring on MORE PRETTY ARMOR!
One of the things I noticed is that each race has a heavy and light build to choose from on character creation, I'm assuming that will effect the look of armour to some extent also.Mezmer said:
IMO I can safely say that it doesn't really matter how many armor slots you have when games like Dragon Age: Origins (Which goes down as one of the best RPG's of the last decade in my book) did a pretty much identical thing TWO years ago and no one was complaining about it then. Just because you can't min-max as much as you did previously isn't something to complain about when the removal of that armor slot makes the game run and look better, and you will find new ways to break the game within twelve minutes. I also approve since it will make sets of legendary armor easier to find.
