What made it so good, if I may ask? My honest opinion (although based off of very little playtime) is that it was a worse version of Skyrim. I remember playing the game, getting out of the jail in the beginning, and roaming around not knowing what to do until a rogue wolf chased me into a pit of sorts whereupon I died. By that time I was so bored/frustrated with it that I never played it again. |
Can't speak for Wright, but as someone who holds a similar opinion, I have to say the quest lines in Oblivion felt so much more complete. I literally had a playthrougsh where I avoided all questlines but the Mages Guild/Thieves Guild/Dark Brotherhood (delete as appropriate) and it still felt as epic as ever. Each guild had a whole games' worth of quests with their own story twists and turns. More importantly, those quests seemed to have a decent amount of thought put into them. The Skyrim equivalents paled in comparison even though most other aspects were superior.
