What kind of near trollish arguement is Morrowind 2 or Oblivion 2 = their gameplays, do you honestly expect them to reboot the old dice roll swing into a game of this generation? really? what the Combat improvement in oblivion wasn't a sign that they are trying to do better with better technology? because last I check Morrowind was made under different circumstances and to a different audience albeit missdone in certain area's.
ook the Skyrim will be Skyrim not morrowind 2.0 or Oblivion 2.0 Argument doesn't hold up, its a silly retort and helps nothing. people bring up past games because thats how they were done in the PAST we don't know what Skyrim will be like but of course its going to share aspects with its predeccessors just like Oblivion did with Morrowind and Morrowind did with Dagger fall and Redguard and Battlespire and Arena.
Stop trying to seperate the games, aside from gameplay differences they are all the same, just excecuted differently. and imo Oblivions execution was.....off, sure when you look at it at certain angles it does fine, I agree, not everything is entirely black and white, to say so is being black and white towards oblivion.
The game portrayed the factions as, very generic. yeah it added its weight in lore but alot of things stood out that makes ine loyal to the series face palm all the games share aspects to one another, Skyrim is another installment into the series stop trying to downplay arguments by dismissing people as wanting Morroblivion 2.0 its not so simple and is a shade of disrespect. its no secret were Oblivion was getting its inspirations from rather than delving into its own well established lore and letting that cascade across its surface and enrapture its audiences.
all you ever heard about Oblivion in its reviews are how open it was its graphics and how much there was to do and how much of an Improvement there was over Morrowinds Combat. that alone proved how base some of these reviewers were, in that they didnt even sink into the game much or figured were it was coming from. of course there is going to be an improvement over Combat its the middle of the decade most games have improved vastly in that respect what did you expect? I'd understand if it was released a year after morrowind fine but other wise thats not much of a call.
the Game wasn't all it could have been, this is not a derogatory remark. and the fears of Skyrim being as generic are not unfounded.
and that is the worst I feel Bethesda could do to the game, turn it into something generic, Streamlined isn't an always positive terminology.
