Far to close to fallout in its combat for my liking but the story,while utterly unoriginal is good enough to overlook that problem for now at least.
Looks stunning though i have to say.
Elder Scrolls' combat system far preceded Fallout, so it's the other way around - Fallouts combat is too close to Oblivion/Skyrim.
The linear story quest is about 0.5% of the game so you're missing the point entirely if you're using that as a yardstick.
