I have been playing Skyrim for a while now but I am longing to get back a bit into Morrowind also. And I want to try out Oblivion with mods. Have anyone experience with playing several of these games at the same time? I don't know if it is a good idea since they differ quite a bit and are quite complex so I am afraid I will just notice the differances and what is missing from one game that is in another or mix up the mechanics etc. Or maybe it is fine, just wanted to check if anyone else is jumping between the games or if you play each one at a time?

I jump between games, only if I miss a certain aspect and/or a certain mod in a game.

For example, if I miss Ayleid ruins, I would play Oblivion and do a few dungeon crawls in those ruins. Or if I miss Tamriel Rebuilt, I would play Morrowind.

I tend to cycle between games, rather than jumping back and forth. So I'll play Oblivion for a stretch of maybe a few weeks, and then go to Morrowind for a month, etc. While playing a particular game, I often juggle three or four different characters (I realize that I'm unusual in doing this.)

By playing the games this way, they don't get stale. Or, said another way, if I feel I need a break from the game I'm playing, I have another game I can jump right into. But I still maintain a sense of continuity, because I don't jump around over the short term.

It takes me maybe an hour to adapt to differences in controls and UI when I switch games. I have a long-term no-goal character in each game (The Wanderer in Morrowind, Wild Elf in Oblivion, my Alchemist in Skyrim, etc.) These are characters who don't do quests or adventure much, so I can load them up and just play around until I feel comfortable enough to load a "game" character.
