Okay, so I started with Oblivion, and thought it was okay, but not great. I liked the open world but found the setting and most of the quests bland. Then I got Skyrim, which I liked playing a lot better because I loved the game world and found the quests engaging (well there are still a lot of bland ones, but on average it's a massive improvement from Oblivion). Varied dungeons that weren't just really obvious copies was nice, and the better graphics helped too.
From what I've heard, Morrowind also has a cool setting, but I've also heard it has bad controls and an even worse combat system than Oblivion and Skyrim. And of course it's about a decade old, so the visual aspect is pretty dated; I value gameplay over graphics, but in an exploration game, graphics do count.
The Org usually has pretty good taste and judgement, I find, and I know there are some ES people on here, so -EDIT: this got cut-off and should read: I was wondering - has anyone else played Skyrim, and then tried Morrowind, or looked at Morrowind again after the later games? If so, was it fun or were there issues that were hard to get past?
