Poll: Favorite Bethesda RPG?

[pppppppppppppppppp]

Fallout New Vegas is made by Obsidian.

I know I'm not the first person to say it, but I like correcting people cause I'm a dick.

I knew this when I made this thread, hence the very clearly bolded disclaimer:

"And for the record, I know Obsidian made New Vegas, but I'm adding it anyway because shut up. And I'm kind of curious how many people can honestly say Arena was their best game.

EDIT: I bolded that I knew NV wasn't by Bethesda because I was tired of people correcting me."

So yeah, not to agree with you, but you're a dick. -_____-

I always like Oblivion a tiny bit more than Fallout 3 (and I haven't played NV yet), not really sure why, and Skyrim improves almost everything about Oblivion. So that. My expectations were pretty high and it still exceeded them.

It's actually quite hard to decide. Skyrim is quite good, and yet...

Actually, it may be Skyrim. Not that I'm blinded by the new shininess of it, but because I find the spell casting in the game much more amusing than VATS or Oblivion's combat. Plus, the dragon fights are something I cannot really think of any other experience in a game to relate it to. When a torrent of flame barely misses my backside while I'm in the middle of fighting Black Mages, and now have a giant mutant lizard killing my enemies while also trying to kill me, it's hard to describe the sense of adventure there.

Bringing up the rear would probably be New Vegas, and yes I realize it'd Obsidian, but it's the same engine as F3. I liked it simply because I was actually able to effectively aim down the sights and snipe in that game, something that was pretty much useless in Fallout 3 because there weren't iron sights. Plus I enjoyed NV's less depressing air. F3 was just all bleak all the time, and though I understand the end of the world would probably be quite a bleak place, after 200+ years...really? How is civilization still so rag-tag?

No option for Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth?

Ok, Oblivion then I guess. I had a lot more fun with it than the Fallout 3 and I think I was exposed to it at a better time then Skyrim, being the first game I owned (with Gears) when I bought a 360.

I do like Call of Cthulhu, but it's not really an rpg is it..?

More of a survival horror shooter puzzle thingy...

Fallout 3, definetely, I loved the combat and the craziness of it all.

Since I've only played Oblivion and New Vegas, I'm going to have to go with New Vegas. I've put more time into Oblivion, but I got it first and when I didn't have any other games to play, so it got all of my time.
