UMBRA!!! By the gods I miss that sword. I also miss spell crafting; with a school dedicated to learning magic one would think that students would try to craft their own spells... OH WAIT!!! they do! Except for you, of course. Magick development is just not available to you. Nope! Sorry...(we're not really)

Been thinking more about this question and realised that I miss being able to create my own spells like you could do in Oblivion.I miss playing around with the creation of powerful chain spells which I soon mastered.They were loads of fun and are sorely missed My most missed spell has to be a long forgotten one that has long since been removed from UESP wiki called - heart attack.It was a huge amount of fun to use.Took a lot of testing to get it right,but once you do is a laugh a minute xD cast it on a bandit an run backwards,at first he will spin around like nothing happened and start running after you.Then all of a sudden his body goes limp and plummet forward smashing his face into the ground dead xD Still have the formula for it too
Spell creation - yesterday I've found I needed an aura of fear spell for a character - that should exist, since we have the fear effect and the cloak range - so why not a cloak of fear? this could be so easily done that I think the limitation is designed to avoid overpowering magic characters.
Daedra. We need more of them. Especially the very high level ones .We need more demonic spiders (not literally "Demonic spiders", but I mean very hard to kill enemies). Also, I miss the Morang Tong, deadly diseases that cripple you, and I miss chapels in the wilderness.
I miss the overwhelmingly intricate and interesting stories for the quests. I also miss the much longer quest lines of oblivion, and really just the overall effort that is put into the story. Skyrim does a great job improving combat, user interface, the HUD and the gaming mechanics in general, but the stories didn't draw me in like oblivion's did.
Ya I agree with that the stories in Skyrim usually dont pull you in like other games could. And I hate how fast you climb through the ranks so easily one minute you just joined then in two hours you quickliy become the most important person in the guild and become leader.
