I can't say that I'm too excited about this, though I'd really like to like the game.
Oblivion didn't impress me at all and I quit by the time I was level 7. It only has a handful of dungeon areas that are all very samey. Fort, ruins, cave, sewer. Over and over again. I don't care that there are different enemies in the various ruins or forts or that small little aesthetic changes are made for each one, I want a different look and for the dungeon to not feel like every other ruin/fort/etc I've been in before.
In fact, once I mentioned this to a friend of mine that had started playing Oblivion, he quit after another hour or two of playing, realizing the same the I just told him.
Fallout 3 had the same problem. Boring, bland post-apocalyptic overworld with the same handful of areas - sewer, enclave camp, raider camp, cave, misc building.
At least Oblivion had a lush overworld that was pretty to walk through.
I really hope they fixed all of this in Skyrim, I really do.
