Honestly, the only good thing about Morrowind's plot above of Oblivion and Skyrim was Dagoth Ur. Other than that, it wasn't anything special.

I enjoyed Oblivion's story; the Mythic Dawn were great, fantastic antagonists. Although I can't comment too much on that of Skyrim, considering that after 564 hours I have yet to make meaningful progress through the Main Quest, I do like the story and a lot of the production values. Whether the ending will be as good as Oblivions, well, I can't yet comment!

It's boring.
AN OBLIVION GATE! GO CLOSE IT FOR THE 100TH TIME!
THIS ONE IS SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT! WOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Look! IT'S MEHRUNES DAGON!
*crappy cutscene of Akatosh killing Mehrunes in a few hits*
THAT'S SO AWESOME!

Nostalgia is the only thing that make sit seem interesting.

I was just thinking about this as I started up Skyrim. I bought Dragonborn, but of course I'm not going to like it and probably won't play it more than once, if I even do. The story in Skyrim is bad. It was bad in Oblivion, too. I agree that Morrowind was better than both of them, but even that was just "ok". Dawnguard and Hearthfire were a step in the right direction. It added in content that had nothing to do with the main storyline. It would be nice if whoever was in charge of creative over at Bethesda would nix the idea of a compelling story (because they svck at it) and instead just focus on content that expands the game. No one buys Fallout or TES for the story. If they can do it right, that's great, but it would be nice if they just focused on what makes their games popular; open-ended gameplay. People have wanted to see a TES game with more than one area to explore for a long time. They should focus less on making your character some awe-inspiring celebrity figure, and instead focus on other aspects of the land... like the war. Let us explore places outside of Skyrim, and maybe they can focus the story on the infinitely more interesting war between the Empire and Dominion.

I'm surprised someone can feel like that. Skyrims main quest and it's ending are awesome. I like the Skyrims plot more than Oblivions plot and much more than Morrowinds plot. Skyrim has added in TES something which was lacking with previous games - it's epic. Previous titles were very good games but there was no change to get the roleplaying and epic feeling on the same level than you can with Skyrim.

Really? Must've missed it while i was busy killing another evil who's evil because he's evil.

Bethesda: "a little more conversation, a little less action..."

Oblivion definitely did have that cinematic, epic feel; I mean, you can't really go wrong with Patrick Stewart, now can you? What Skyrim lacks in star-power, I think it makes up for in scale and, well, awesomeness, if you will pardon the expression. I mean, Dragons man.

not really.

Alduin isn't just a dragon, he's sort of a World-Eating God.

you beat me to it.

Implying Oblivion's ending gave you some sense of achievement.

What i believe is that the main STORY of Skyrim was awesome, to say the least. HOWEVER, the story wasnt implemented into the game all too well... but the story itself was awesome

You really think Morrowind had better plot than Oblivion and Skyrim? I can't clearly understand your thoughts. In Morrowind it was nice to proof yourself for three Great Houses but besides that there were nothing interesting in the main quest. The whole incarnate thing made it absolutely ridiculous to play with any other race than Dunmer and even with Dunmer it gave you feeling "I'm not myself but I'm a dead hero who have born again." Morrowinds story/mainquest is the worst one ever seen in TES.

Note that

IMO, Skyrim's Main Quest is a lot more fufilling than that of Oblivion's.

And I'm surprised anyone can feel like that. I must have missed the epic factor when playing Skyrim.

It's not that...


Never correct a man's opinion, as much as you probably wouldn't like to see others correcting yours.

Well I think we can at least agree that Oblivion did a better job of portraying that you are not the only one fighting. There were guards everywhere. There was the Defense of Bruma with all the soldiers that you gathered etc.
In Skyrim you are pretty much alone fighing everyone in your way. There is no party that actually helps you fight of the dragons.

Dagoth Ur.
Meruhnes Dagon.
Alduin.

Alduin should have, could have, been the most interesting adversary (in terms of plot and interaction, not gameplay). Alas not to be, but I did enjoy most of the rest of the MQ.

I don't see how. I always thought of being incarnate through the soul/spirit.

Lydia and meeko helped me through the main quest.

You have never hunted dragons with blades?

isnt that the exact plotline of twilight?

Good points. Though i had already figured Mora is the most powerful of the princes, and that you can't [censored] with them. Even if you're Dovahkiin

Still there was too little talking with Miraak. He could have been the Ulysses of Skyrim. I enjoyed talking with him more than fighting him.


For me atleast it did. Mainly because the Oblivion gates disappeared. And people talked about the crisis ending. In Skyrim nothing changes

I personally think morrowind had the better main quest our of the 3 games.

I did not really like skyrims main quest until dragonborn I think its going to be a lot better than oblivions overall story. I am a svcker for power corrupts stories.

I agree with Boss loved that part of dragonborn.
