The jank is part of the charm. Who doesn't remember Skyrim Horsing their way up a mountain?
Yeah, I think they get some unfair flack for "buggy" games. It's kinda true, but at the same time I feel like they release boundary-pushing games. Granted Im also looking back at skyrim and FO3 with the bias of nostalgia.
I largely believe that to be the only reason horses exist in Skyrim because unlike Oblivion, you don't actually go any faster on a horse in Skyrim.
To be fair, by the end of Oblivion, you end up faster than a horse in Oblivion (and while you could make your own horse faster, it did also increase the chance of the horse dying because you ran too fast off a hill).
