Seriously man, don't make me whup your arse again. It's not a fair fight.
I'll admit I was a big fan of Myst and Riven back when they came out (the acting sucks so much in the later ones they're not so great). I'm also a HUGE Morrowind geek; the whole business of exploring the landscape on one mission, and then just happening across a whole other thing to do or new location to explore was brilliant (plus the first time I came across one of the dust storms was a personal gaming high point)
TBH I'm not saying anything as simplistic as half of you are making out (don't blame Kletus, he can't handle any concept above the blatantly obvious). I'm just pointing out that the shooting mechanic, while fun, is a pretty simplistic and juvenile way to interact with the environment; and it's become such a staple that as long as you can shoot things, developers can get away without giving you anything more interesting to do.
