Lol yea you can make a successful mage in morrowind. So I kind of see why Morrowind would seem to have most stuff in it and would like to experience it all. Might be doable if I could just completely avoid close combat alltogether?Īfter Skyrim I can see how there was neat stuff in Oblivion that's no longer in Skyrim and have to assume the same goes The second time maybe a year ago was a brief one, the flap flap flapflapflapflap attack animations were so stupid I just couldn't stand it.Ĭan you make a successful mage (like in skyrim) or sneak bow thief (like in Oblivion)? Played for many hours years ago, didn't see anything worth doing or getting into for. I'm tempted to say they learned how to make good, interesting games.īut I'd really like to somehow get into Morrowind, there just *has* to be good stuff in there somewhere. So what the hell happened over at Bethesda? So in conclusion: ( Shivering Isles) > Morrowind > Skyrim > Oblivion > Daggerfall Still it was a borefest with you basically doing the same quest except to a different far reaching corner of the map over and over again, but with cheesy randomly generated terrain instead of a persistent world. The only thing Daggerfall had going for it, in my opinion, was the sheer staggering size of it all, plus it was fairly revolutionary back in the day. Skyrim, in my opinion, is certainly an improvement over Oblivion because at least the setting isn't quite as bland as Cyrodiil and Fus Ro Dah is kinda fun for a few minutes.

Oblivion was a truly forgettable game with a bland setting, bland story, bland everything except for the Brotherhood quests and the aforementioned Shivering Isles expansion. Morrowind's strength was the fantastic setting and the great faction dynamics.

While combat in Morrowiind was horrendous, it's not like it's gotten noticeably better, it still sucked in Oblivion, and it still sucks in Skyrim. Morrowind was the peak of the Elder Scrolls series, as far as full games go, I thought the Shivering Isles expansion for Oblivion was, and still is, the best thing Bethesda has ever done.
