Demons are taking over the world!! OK I'm gonna spend a few days looking for nirnroot.
I've just ostracised myself from my lifelong home to follow my father. I know, I won't bother actually looking for him, instead I'll help some nutter write a book.

That is why I could never really get into Oblivion or Fallout 3, it just felt wrong.
Also, Morrowing just seemed so vast compared to Oblivion. You had way more than just 3 guilds, you had the 3 houses, over half a dozen guilds, three vampire clans. I easily played the game for 100 hours+ on just one character and didn't finish everything or even get that close to. Only thing I hated about it is that I couldn't find anything, especially crucial quest palces, and everyone gave horrible directions.....
