Not to derail the thread further but anyone saying Morrowind is better than Oblivion or Skyrim are in it for the sense of scope and wonder and not the actual games themselves. Morrowwind wouldn't work being just Remastered where Oblivion can to some degree cause it's not so archaic as Morrowind would need to be rebuilt from the ground up and while Skyrim took much out that makes these games they also made the game better in a lot of ways, Dungeons for example are a loop and so much better , the leveling scaling isn't broken but on the flip side Oblivion has the better quests and world. Morrowwind has lots and lots of walking and walking and walking hoping you'll run into something interesting and even at the time of Oblivions release it was archaic and felt like a game far more old than it was, Oblivions impact was like Metal Gear 2 to Metal Gear Solid for what it improved.

Bollocks mate - Morrowind was the last RPG Bethesda made with (mostly) core RPG audience in mind, and even Morrowind was quite a bit dumbed down compared to Daggerfall. ;)

I never played daggerfall nut surely this must be nostalgia. Technically they didn't dumb anything down in Oblivion just improved what needed work... now Skyrim, yes they definitely dumbed it down but would Morrowind sell more than Skyrim if they were released in reverse order and the graphics were swapped about morrowind the best looking game. Very unlikely. Also, Skyrim Sold much cause of Fallout 3 and New Vegas bringing in the casuals, not so much Oblivion fans so it's more that they took what was working from Fallout 3 than dumbing down Oblivion.
