After completing the ‘main’ quest, is there any sort of reward or recognition for your accomplishments

the-elder-scrolls-v-skyrim

So I finished the main story. I got back to Tamriel, expected some kind of a … reward. You know, for saving the world etc. But nobody I've spoken to seems to care at all about that. Am I doing something wrong or is the main storyline actually … not that 'main'?

In Oblivion, after finishing the game, I got a title, equipment, everybody talked to me like to a hero, there was this big Martin Dragon in the Talos Plaza in IC, but nothing grandiose seems to be here this time :/

I don't mean this question as a request for opinions, I know that is not allowed at stackexchange, I just want to know if that's really it?

A guard in Whiterun said "Hail Dragonkin, hero of Skyrim" to me, which I thought was awful nice. And someone else thanked me for ending a great evil or something.

But yeah, overall it feels like people could be a little nicer, given that I prevented the world from ending...
