It's not that Oblivion is bad or anything, it's just it's predecessor did so much more right. Bethesda tried to make the game more mainstream,
have a casual appeal (yes, you're reading it right).
- Oblivion had a very generic and boring medieval world, Morrowind was spectacular and fresh.
- Combat system has been severely dumped down and simplified.
- Leveling-up system in Elderscrolls series is the best in RPGs so no complaint here :)
- Adjusting loot and enemies to your level just destroyed Oblivion. You could be in a cave for more than an hour killing enemies
and get rewarded with an amazing 30 gold.
- Boring, broken, small main quest.
- Oblivion was supposed to be the next step in the ES series, but many desicions were just awful.
