Current Events > Is Oblivion or Skyrim better?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Also, how do you feel Elder Scrolls compares to other sandbox games?

---

I liked Oblivion more, but neither one is a top tier game. Combat in the Elder Scrolls games sucks ass.

Oblivion.

I know it's a generic high fantasy mess, but it appeals to me on a level that Skyrim doesn't.

---

Oblivion
The last somewhat rpg of the es series.
I mean hell. The dark brotherhood party quest shits on anything Skyrim did.

---

Oblivion is better in the ways that matter most as an RPG, it just plays like shit.

skyrim. oblivion is a mess in comparison, its like a proto-skyrim with half dead bits of morrowind hanging on.

---

Morrowind

---

The only thing Skyrim does better is probably graphics. All the gameplay improvements are canceled by parts of the gameplay they worsened.

---

Depends on your sense of humor really.
Oblivion > Skyrim pretty much every where else though.

---

Skyrim is way better to me, and it's mostly because the environment is actually interesting to explore.

Running around Oblivion was exciting at first, but once the initial ooooh aaaaah wore off and I remembered how interesting exploring Morrowind was compared to how boring Oblivion's map was the excitement wore off.

---

Elder Scrolls are garbage RPGs.

Skyrim has the better gameplay, but Oblivion has a lot of things going for it, including the aforementioned better quests. It also has the better DLC homes. Building a cozy house in the woods is cool and all, but in Oblivion you could have a castle or a pirate cove.

---

Oblivion has a better setting but Skyrim's level-up systems and mechanics are far superior.

---

In terms of actual playability, Skyrim by a mile. Where Oblivion shined was the more interesting quests, but modders have done some amazing things over the last ten years.

---

Skyrims gameplay is better and more modern, but its content is definitely lacking quality wise compared to Oblivion. In the end, content is what matters, so I'd say play Ob.

Skyrim improves on the things that should be taken for granted with a more modern game, the gameplay mechanics. Oblivion is better in every other way.

---

Oblivion imo.

Like everyone knows, Oblivion is the crappiest, worst and most boring game game in the elder scrolls series.

It failed to be better then Morrowind even in terms of graphics.

It failed to be better then Skyrim in terms of what you can do in the game.

It even failed to be better then TES online in terms of

Even thoug morrowind was released way before oblivion, the game oblivion was just more distatseful. It sported uglier looking faces that looked like they were already smached in before combat started. Some think that was cute about the graphic, and i dare say, i spit on you. Oblivion had so ugly looking faces and graphics in general that you had to pull through several sessions of walking through places and stop yourself from puking due to corners lagging, shadows with raspy corners and water looking unrealistic and distasteful.

The combat in oblivion just makes me puke. It's basically two guys standing in front of eachother and waving their arms and it looks so f-ing bad. The graphic has NO hunching from attack, NO reaction when you hit them at all and NO realistic sense whatsoever. Its all just people walking around and waving their arms making games like swordsand sandals look like a masterpiece compared to this piece of trash oblivion.

The game is just bad in general. There are no fun places to go to, everything in the game just looks so dull and boring. It isn't made to be in a dull and dark setting, yet i mean it looks dull in the sense that it's boring to look like. Lots of the same trees everywhere. Midgets that you want to put a knife in them cause they looks so ugly. Animals that make the game look like it's made from the computer stoneage and also people that are just so f-ing basic and boring to talk to. In general, i think even the older bethesda games did a better job than this piece of trash game oblivion. The sad thing is also that the oblivion players think their game is better because it's more "fun" in the sense of walki around and looking at stupid stuf and people that just blurt out one liners. These people are just plain braindead.

I say this game gets a 2/10.

Oblivion had Shivering Isles, so that wins.

oblivion.

skyrim never really appealed to me. a lot of design choices just felt bad and the world itself is very uninteresting to me.
