Both good and bad comes from the huge world that is the setting for Oblivion.
You have the freedom to do anything, anywhere but you can also wander off and forget or lose interest in the main quest.
The world is beautiful and feels real with towns, inns, farms, ruined forts etc but it might disappoint when you realize that a lot of NPCs look and sound the same..
During character creation you can customize the look of your character with great detail (never before or since have i been able to make my guy look like me) but during the game you will encounter lots of NPCs that are down right ugly or look very bland.

Overall it's a very good game and a great improvement on Morrowind, i enjoyed the character developement and gameplay (except the vampire part). And after playing Bethesda's Fallout 3 i realized how important Oblivion was in the developer's evolution.
