    Default Best Elder Scrolls Game

    Morrowind is the answer. Oblivion and Skyrim are just barely RPG's, and their respective game worlds lack the organic culture and atmosphere Morrowind had.

    Also, Oblivion and Skyrim may have a trout ton to do, but comparatively little of it is all that interesting.

    Daggerfall is a buggy mess. The randomly-generated world just doesn't work.

    So, which one is best?

    Skyrim's better than you give it credit for Laddy, and it brings back a lot of that Morrowind magic.

    But Morrowind is the right answer.

    Skyrim in first, Oblivion in second because of mods, then morrowind because of the terrible interface, then the other two because they suck balls.

    Mods make Oblivion playable. They make the already more-than-playable Skyrim and Morrowind godly.

    No. Sorry, it isn't. Sorry if I'm being a bitch. It has a ho-hum story with a laughably (even insultingly) simple character advancement system that's more broken than Oblivion's. While it did improve on Oblivion in regards to atmosphere and culture, Morrowind still blows it out of the water.

    Morrowind's music and sound effects are superior, it has three times more skills than Oblivion does, and it's just a larger and better world.

    EDIT: The only fair way one can argue that Morrowind is inferior in any way is combat. And considering the much larger amount of weapons, skills, and methods you can use, I'm happy with my character looking like he's jerking off with his sword.

    If I'd been saying Skyrim is better than Morrowind this post would make more sense

    I know what you're saying, and it's wrong. Skyrim is weaker than even Oblivion.

    I agree with some points, such as the lack of athletics and acrobatics and blade and blunt and weapons breaking. I disagree in the overall feel, looks, variation of quests, and vampirism is no longer a death sentence.

    What are you on about son Skyrim is superior in absolutely EVERY WAY to Oblivion. I... I don't even know how that sentence could be deliberately put together by any sapient being in the universe.

    Skyrim is a shallow experience. It pisses on its RPG roots and create a laughably easy and predictable experience that is completely incapable of surprising anyone with any real experience in the WRPG genre.

    Oblivion is too, but at least it was the first time it was an utter disappointment for the series and not the second.
