Ya, some aspects of DA:O aren't exactly real world simulation. But that was the very thing that was so annoying in Oblivion. I remember trying to pickpocket at the perfect time -dark outside, no guards anywhere, my skill is up etc. Then out of nowhere the potential pickpocket victim yells for guards and I get pummeled and go to jail yadayada... So much time was required to do anything effectively, that is was just too much. Too real per say.
After playing a game like this... I must ask myself... Why the hell did I ever think....

why are you people so scorned by oblivion? it was a fine game. did it pick on you in grade school or something?
i loved the environment of it, i loved walking around and just looking up at the sky, i loved the ambient sounds, i loved exploring just for the heck of it and coming across a super cool looking ruin or landmark.
you know what scared the crap out of me about that game tho? i remember leaving a town (i think it was leyawin) and i saw this creepy looking wood elf chasing me i stopped and looked back and he kept getting closer, i felt like chucky from childs play was chasing me. i thought i got away from him but like 5 minutes later i stopped, looked back and he was coming at me again. it truly was creepy, then luckily after he gave me some more chase a minataur killed him. but every time i took the road from chedenhall to leyawin i saw his dead body on the road and it gave me the creeps.
You avatar/picture is giving me the creeps. Ha!
I liked Oblivion because of its openness, and like you I enjoyed just exploring. I like Dragon Age for its interesting and often cut scenes. Now if I could get the two together, I'd be a happy clam.
