I wont lie, Skyrim is my favorite so far.

The leveling system is refined, the combat is better then ever, the graphics are beautiful, and the landscape feels natural. Ive been playing TES games since Daggerfall, but Skyrim is my favorite so far.

Skyrim is GOTY for me, and Beths best game yet imo.

70 hrs for me so far...
lvl 35
Archery 100
Sneak 100
Light Armour 76
Lockpick 85
Everything else is pretty low

Chests looted 665
People killed 652
Animals killed 290
Creatures killed 102
Undead killed 381
Deadra killed 18
Automatons killed 33

Critical attacks 1398
Sneak attacks 1097

Can clear out any and all caverns and bosses without ever been seen. I dont think Ive been hit by anything for the last 10 hrs... OP
Fk me this is a big game, I have only been to 2 towns so far, haven't started the main quest yet.

Skyrim - so far I prefer the guild quests and characters of Oblivion more...but I like the leveling system and combat improvements of Skyrim.

Of course, I've probably only seen about 10% of what Skyrim offers, I'm sure I'll come across quite a few fun characters or interesting quests.

Morrowind, then Skyrim.

Fallout 3/Oblivion/NV were all equally shitty, and I've never played Arena or Daggerfall.
Are you seriously saying that fallout 3 and new vegas are of the same quality as oblivion which was one of the worst rpgs ever made by
Bethesda?
If you are, then you have a bad understanding of what a good rpg is.
I chose skyrim, then morrowind, because they are both awesome.
Or, you know, he had a different opinion than you. They truly are nasty things, able to break the strongest of them all.

I voted Fallout 3.
I haven't played Morrowind or Skyrim (yet), and New Vegas wasn't Betheshda. Both Daggerfall and Arena were games I was unable to get immersed into, and Oblivion, although enjoyable, feels like it lacks the same polish in many areas.

Haven't played Skyrim and didn't like Fallout 3, meaning I never played New Vegas either. But of those I have played Morrowind has always stood out as my favourite simply because it was such a vast and intriguing world full of things I'd never seen before, both crazy and imaginative. A city formed of pyramids in the middle of massive swamps, clockwork robot defenders of ancient Dwarven ruins, giant strider bugs you used for transportation...

Just a really memorable and unique experience.

I haven't played them all, but so far, Fallout 3. I never understood all the hate it got, I thought it did the older games honor. The world was interesting and fun to explore, the bugs weren't too numerous (for a Bethesda game), the quests were fun, and so on.

Honestly, I can't vote yet, only because I haven't made up my mind. Skyrim, or Morrowind. Those are the best two games (fallout 3 being the third) they put out. Maybe in a year I'll find out?

"Ah yes, we've been expecting you. You'll have to be recorded before you're officially released. There are a few ways we can do this, and the choice is yours."

Yep, still the best. Skyrim comes close, but I realized as I turned on Morrowind in the other room while my GF played Skyrim that I don't miss the improved combat at all (Morrowind's combat is remedied pretty easily, actually, by crafting a Constant Effect Restore Fatigue item early on and equipping it. Makes for a sweet first goal when striking out in this dangerous island for the first time)

I also don't miss the Radiant AI crap either. My mind filled in those blanks just fine when I first played Morrowind and it still does. I don't need to see Socucious Ergalla go to sleep at night, eat cheese for breakfast and write in his scrolls because in my head he already is.

Maybe it's nostalgia, but when I read a book in Morrowind there comes a point where I realize "I'm reading a book in a game. I live in this world, I'm learning its lore and I don't know what I'm gonna do next." I think the fact that it isn't this combat-focused game means that I focus that much more on actually living in the place. Vvardenfell is also...frickin Vvardenfell. I don't think I'll ever see a setting as unique as that one for an RPG again.

Vvardenfell feels like reading the world-building in Lord of the Rings, while Skyrim feels like being the subject of a power metal song. It's a great feeling but I also don't feel too motivated to explore Skyrim as a foreign world full of strange politics, odd religions and alien customs from mine. Not yet anyway. I'm just doing missions and killing shit because FUCK THAT WOLF IM GONNA KICK IT IN THE FACE.

Maybe with more time I'll fall in love with Skyrim as a world, but right now, 15 hours in, Morrowind is unquestionably still the king.

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.

Despite the rather unfriendly mechanics (and those f***ing cliff racers), Morrowind is still the one I'm most fond of.
Fallout 3 was decent, much better than Oblivion.
Haven't played the other four.

I think my favourite has to be oblivion, something about the planes of oblivion was just incredibly fun ^_^

on a side note.... Fallout NV isn't by Bethesda... It's by Obsidian Entertainment

Of the games listed? Fallout New Vegas. But only because of the games listed, I've only played Fallout 3 and New Vegas.

skyrim > fallout new vegas > oblivion = morrowind > fallout 3

that's roughly how it goes for me, skyrim i am in simple awe of how much i am enjoying it.

fallout new vegas, was absolutely amazing, done 3 playthroughs so far, planning to do many more, but i definitely didn't have the immersion level that i'm having with skyrim

oblivion and morrowind i did the morroblivion mod, so i enjoyed both games equally in that sense, and i thought they were both great, not nothing that really was "KAZAAM"


fallout 3 took many many many many times and many many mods..but i will admit i did finally enjoy it.

I voted Fallout 3, but it is close between it, Skyrim, Oblivion and Fallout: New Vegas.

I had very low expectations for Skyrim, I thought Bethesda had lost their touch. Oblivion was meh, and I couldn't stand the modern Fallouts. So I was shocked when I actually enjoyed Skyrim more than Morrowind.
yeah this.

My only problem with skyrim is their seems to be less random caves to explore than or TES games. but that might just be because i haven't explored as much as i did in the others.

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.
