you don't have to do anything.
maybe you should get a little more creative with your character build and tactics?
you don't have to be just ranged, or just melee, or just magic. there's tons of scrolls and enchants that, when combined with the ability to swap out gear in combat, provide for a variety of ways to approach any encounter. the game can be played however you choose.
it sounds like you're choosing to play it in a way that upsets you and then complaining about it
I know I posted the picture of the Skinner Box, but that was more making fun of achievements than the game itself or its mechanics. Skyrim is still very enjoyable for me after what has now been countless hours of play. and that's because I play it in a way that allows me to enjoy it.
That was just a simple example of one situation I was in, and apparently you don't understand the retarded difficulty spikes this game has. I went through the dungeon killing every monster in like 2-3 hits, and then the boss was a mage that would kill me in 1 giant ice blast, and he would shoot one every 3 seconds and it was impossible to dodge unless you hid behind a pillar. So no, it had nothing to do with my choices or tactics or anything.
Anyways that isn't too big of a problem on it's own, that just removes the fun out of the boss fight (climax) of a dungeon. I've had way more issues than that, and most of them had to do with the ease of everything. There's no risk/reward, just reward, reward, reward. So easy to just grind your skills, collect up masses of gold, ect, ect. You can basically do everything and there's no difference in your choices. Boring to me, and I'm sure other people too, but I guess they just don't play the game.
I really want to like the game though. The dragon fights are pretty cool and are done right (besides the part where it's impossible to avoid their attacks). The environments are definitely done right and are awesome, ect, ect. The scripting of events and dialog is a lot better than what they've done before. Exploring dungeons and the environments is fun. Heck, basically all my problems has to do with the combat systems and the rpg systems. Now that I think about it, this game would be way better as a action adventure FPS, like Zelda or Metroid or Castlevania or GoW, but in first person and open world.
