Skyrim lessons learned from Fallout 3

That's a new PC Gamer article title

Among other things, one of the lessons noted was this:

Lesson two, Oblivion’s stilted random conversation system is gone. “There’s very few completely random conversations,” says Howard. “We’ve gone more towards a system, like we did in Fallout 3, where they have a specific conversation with a specific person about various topics.”

Dare I be hopeful about this? One of the worst things about the past TES games and biggest concerns for this one for me is the NPCs so this sounds like a really good thing to me.

Of course I would prefer lessons learned from the New Vegas npcs over the FO3 ones but anything over Oblivion has got to be an improvement.
