As a general rule, you should offer a prompt in the OP. That way it's clear what we're supposed to be discussing. Otherwise it just looks like just wanted to let us know that you talked to your friend, and that isn't really what forums are for.
Morrowind was my first, and it's still my favorite. That said, Skyrim is great and, as much as I hate the leveling system, Oblivion was pretty damn good to. Haven't played Daggerfall or Arena because I've never had a good computer to run them on, though.
