ES4: Shivering Isles - Interview @ Gamesblog

The Shivering Isles interviews are coming in at light-speed with The Guardian's Gamesblog the latest to chat with Pete Hines on the upcoming expansion:

Talking of leveling, there has been some criticism about the leveling structure in Oblivion, with some players annoyed that their enemies level when they do. What are your thoughts on this and why was this designed into the game?

You do see different creatures based on what level you are, but they don't level to your level. We only level up boss creatures in certain cases, so it's not something that happens all the time. It's a fair comment, but the challenge is to try to make a game that allows you to go wherever you want and do whatever you want while also making sure that you can actually do something there.
