It's definitely disappointing that stealth wasn't improved more, as it was my biggest gripe with Skyrim while melee, archery and magic all got major improvements, Stealth gameplay was pretty poor thanks to poor AI for patrolling and seeking, plus other annoyances like inconsistent ability to sneak effectively (sneaking outdoors is often impossible without invisibility).īut this is where mods usually come into their own it won't be long until mods come out to tweak the vanilla stealth mechanic, and later ones that will overhaul it more radically. I guess what matters most is whether it's still fun, and I think in general it is.
