Glad you did not throw Morrowind in.

In this case New Vegas x 2 :fallout: :nuke:

if you would have asked me a couple of weeks ago i would have picked skyrim but now that enough time has passed and ive taken off my rose colored goggles fallout NV is my number one choice by far. better writing, the world reacts more to your decisions, disguises, humor, the plant vault is still creepier than anything ive seen in skyrim. i agree with some other posters that at this point im much more excited about the next fallout game than the next TES game.

fallout NV

Voted FNV on both polls.

Even though Obsidian is crap at dungeon building and making exploration rewarding, the story and game mechanics of FNV are far superior IMO to FO3 and TES. I wish Bethesda would collaborate with them more often.
Have Bethesda build the map and the dungeons and let Obsidian write and design the rest and you would have the perfect sandbox RPG

Skyrim > all.

I chose Elder Scrolls all the way. I enjoyed Fallout immensely but it is immanently more satisfying for me playing in a fantasy world. I also would have like to have seen Morrowind in there as an option. I love the depth of the lore that is ingrained into the Elder Scrolls.

For me it's...

FO3=FNV (for reasons i will not explain now) >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Oblivion>Skyrim (oh yes)

758 hours logged into Vegas and counting. I'm STILL playing and trying out all sorts of combinations of things. Recently discovered a bad karma melee-orientated character with a katana? Freaking [censored]-storm as far as melee speed goes. Holy hell...
Skyrim I got 90 hours, but honestly I got more like 72 on my own, then another 18 I just tried convincing myself the game isn't THAT bad. Don't think I'll be picking it up again unless a good DLC comes out for it or something.
Morrowind it's tough to say how many hours I logged into it. Never got very far in the storyline but spent plenty of time screwing off. Probably ~250?
Oblivion I played a lot. What can I say, I like a game with good faction quests. Probably invested a good ~450 in Oblivion.
Fallout 3 I tried playing in different ways and enjoyed the game, but struggled to do anything new. The quests were very poor and while exploration was fun, it loses it's value after you start learning all the locations. Probably managed ~300 hours.

wow.........i thought i was obsessive with NV with 473 hours.

Fallout 3 and FNV were..... an orgism.
Modded - i wouldn't trade them for the hottest chick in the world

I also found modded FO3 better than modded FNV and FNV vanilla better than FO3 so i can't really compare them!
And when i say modded i mean heavily modded for rp, immersion, content etc.

PS: If FNV had poker i would probably be the greatest no-lifer ever.
PS2: After i got sick of Skyrim i returned to a heavily modded FNV and modded FNV makes Skyrim look like a platform game.

THANK YOU for that statement, really!

a) And I really thought I had a serious problem with 702 hrs.

B) I got 103 in Skyrim and have to force myself to play.

c) The others I don't really know but Morrowind goes beyond 1500 hrs, for sure.

Skyrim.

I just couldn't get into the depressing wasteland of fallout.

People like NV better then Fallout 3...people have different opinions then me? :verymad:

RARRRG YOU ARE ALL CASUALS/NOOBS/NERDS WITH NO LIFE! :swear:

For me its Fo3>Skyrim>OB>NV

While I do love Fallout 3 and New Vegas, I am TES first.

I think there all great Fallout New Vegas is still very close to my heart :fallout: and skyrims my favorite at the moment only because its new and different,
plus i loved Oblivion so choosing 1 over another is just something i cant and wont do :angel:

I imagine those who haven't played Fallout would be like:

"omg? a four completely different options quest with completely different outcomes?!! No way!"

Stop ranting or the Dovahkids will get on you.

I wonder, if there are that many options to choose sides in Skyrim, like there were in Vegas. In FO3 you basically had the Megaton/Tenpenny thing and then Slaver yes or no, anything else? And Skyrim?

Well, projecting from these poll results, it looks like Fallout 4 is going to be ridiculously popular.

The poll confused me LOL

Actually, I find all three pretty much the same. Skyrim feels more like Bethesda's Fallout games than like Oblivion to me, though.

Skyrim > NV > Fallout 3 > Oblivion

Had to vote NV over Fallout 3 and Oblivion cuz I played through that game like 6 times... but they're all great games

Fallout NV takes it for me overall. It has a great mix of humour and fun in the strip, with a more bleak and desperate atmosphere in the rest of the mojave. Fallout 3 conveys a decent atmosphere of desperation, but that's all there is to it in the main game, and the two TES games both fail terribly at creating any atmosphere at all for the most part. Skyrim has its moments towards the end of the MQ, but other than that I don't feel anything while playing, which is a big minus mark in my book.

Right..
Btw for the Megaton Tenpenny thing you could do all these. http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/The_Power_of_the_Atom
And that quest seemed "linear" in comparison to many others. Anything else? Have you even played it?

Skyrim... just play it and you will see. Most quests have 1 option and the most complex ones usually have 2.

This.

I like Skyrim a lot. Just hit 100 hours and going strong. Oblivion lost me at around 85-90 hours. For some reason, the world felt lifeless to me. I hated how the area where all the main shops where in the Imperial City looked so empty and quiet. Skyrim is far from perfect, but the world feels so alive it made me quit auto-travel. I loved New Vegas, 175 hours on it even though I was pretty dissapointed with the strip, and how they divided it. But like many people here, I loved how you really changed the outcome of things and felt so free to try anything.I Skyrim railroads you a bit too much IMO.

Fallout 3 ia agame for the ages. The opening segment of that game is one of the most brilliantly done things ive seen in video games and Ive been palying games since the Atari days. You really felt the wonder and the fear of violently being thrust into a dangerous,unknown world. I logged over 500 hours on it. FONV almost as good, but what I think holds it back is how everything is supossed to be so large scales. Crowded cities like New Vegas and Armies? Sure you can use your imagination but when you got to the actual game everything was so low scale. I was sadly dissapointed in how short the final MQ mission is. I was expecting to fight an army, but apparently Caesar's army consisted of just less than a company. I saved 10 mininukes and I eneded up shooting them at Legendary Deathclaw, inside a cave, BTW. I So.. Fallout 3 all the way.

And why are people allowed to delete their vote? I just noticed that here. Is that on all polls, or is it an option for the person who polling?

uh... no
