on bethesda forum and wasn't sure how many people have seen it so I post it here.
I must say I am a bit disappointed. But just abit^^.

I was expecting more Bound Weapons.

I can't understand paralyze is now alteration, most spells in illusion are now gimmicks. And I hate it that there are now open spells wtf....

"Open" spells?

they did this just to make everyone use pickpocket

Ah. Your now confused me.

Kind of frustrating for mage characters.

I think getting rid of the open spells may have been a good thing, I mean it kinda made lockpicking redundant. Actually, magic made a lot of things redundant in previous games.

You can't be omnipotent anymore. In a probably good way.

What did you confuse?^^

Pickpocket also is lockpicking, and as there are no spells that can open locks and there will be enough locked chests with good stuff, we have all to train abit of pickpocket.....
They could just have made open a high expensive spell which needs also a higher skill level compared to pickpocketing, now I have to play that damn minigame .

Giving the thieves and assassins that extra punch, I like it. I never really played stealth characters much because magic could do everything I needed... in an easier and cooler way.

Yeah you are right I misread one of the pickpocket perks and then was confused sry.
