The Khajiit we're left as the wonderfully entertaining race that they'd been for a while, that made me happy.

the whole aesthetic of the game just repulses me.

See, that's where I highly disagree. Skyrim, undeniably has amazing graphical abilities compared to oblivion, I'm not going to act like it doesn't. But the art direction (aside from the race differences, most of the races in oblivion looked bad) in oblivion seems way better to me. In skyrim, just about every fucking place I looked at was grey or brown or covered in snow. Now I understand that it is that way to match it's location, but it doesn't mean that I think it's much better to look at. In Cyrodiil (where oblivion takes place) the landscape is vibrant, and overall nice to look at, and even then it's not all same-y as in the south the landscapes are a bit more muddy, in the north, it's more cold looking, and in dungeons it looks more.... dungeony? Point is, I feel that the visiual aesthetics are just way better in Oblivion, where in skyrim I feel blessed to look at a green tree.
