I loved Morrowind and never got Oblivion. Played it though.

I dont like how mobs in both Oblivion and FO3 scale with you. I like hard areas and easy areas.

In fact... When I get home today, I'm reinstalling Morrowind. Great freaking game.

Edit: Daggerfall owned my life for a year. I cant go back to that.

Actually the scaling system is great. It means you can do what you want, when you want. If you want more or less challenge, change the difficulty settings.

Waste time redoing an old game? Hell no. Get on with the next game, but give it the production value of Fallout 3 (or better). I'd love to see the tree elf city that is basically a giant tree that migrates around.

 

I think I'm the only person that thought Oblivion was a much better game than Fallout 3.

I loved both games but I've played Oblivion forever now and FO3 I only pick up again once they release a New DLC.

I've played Oblivion both on 360 and PC with Mods like ten times longer than FO3.

Oh don't get me wrong, I loved Oblivion. I've spent 200+ hours on it. But there is no way to argue that Oblivion had the same production value. In Fallout, characters don't switch between different voices based on what question you ask. Gameplay is superior, graphics are of course better, the UI works better, and the leveling system doesn't force you to use skills you don't like just to level certain attributes properly.

With the lessons they've learned, they need to apply it to Elder Scrolls 5, not revisit 3. I want a totally new story and content, not a shinier version of stuff I've already seen.

I recently bought Morrowind on Steam. Hadn't played it before, and I loved Oblivion and Fallout 3, so I wanted to try it. I started playing it, but I've been finding it hard to get over the outdated graphics. It would be nice if they'd update it, but that's a lot of work for an old game so it's unlikely. Too bad, since I keep hearing that it is such a good RPG.

really

I'm with you on the dislike of Fallout 3.  I couldn't stand it.  The VATS was the only thing cool in the game, I played straight and never used fast travel in the game and found the storyline appauling and boring.  The same enemy over and over.  How the hell does a landmine not kill...  Update early games sure would be more enjoyable than a lot of garbage companies are coming out with.

Seriously, who would not want and updated graphical Baldur's Gate II/TOB?  I would love a new graphics engine, nothing else, just that.

Easy fix for this oscuros oblivion overhaul, simple mod to install (exe). Yet it fixes most issues people may have who prefer morrowind over oblivion. It adds quite a bit to the overall difficulty, and itemization (loot list). It rewards exploring much more as well as makes it much more dangerous. It also changes the way vendors work and adds tweaks like making drawers, barrells, boxes and chests open and close. It also changes flora and enemy spawns, higher lvl things spawn whenever rather than when you reach that level.

Yup, Oscuros Oblivion Overhaul is amazing. I use Martigen's Monster Mod with it as well. With those two mods, it totally transforms the game. You no longer have to try and beat the leveling system and it ramps up the difficulty big time. The extra mobs and loot are great as well. I just started a new Mage character. The first thing I did was try to join the Mage's guild. After 10 hours of play time I'm finally allowed into the university but I'm struggling to get the staff, the Necromancers are just so hard to kill.

It really makes you rethink combat and introduces a Risk / Reward system. You can go into a seriously hard dungeon and get some amazing stuff but it's gonna be very tough.

There's some user made mods around that make the graphics in morrowind almost Oblivion like, also a combat mod which I have not tryed myself but has good ratings.

it makes me want to play instantly morrowind again!

None of your choices apply.

My answer is NO! Don't waste your time Bethesda move onto TES 5 instead of revamping TES 3

i don't recall any company revamping graphics of several year old single player game. pretty much what you would get is whole remake.

Thanks for that link I may actually try the game when I get my pc back, sigh another game on the list to play lol.

 I've been playing Morrowind for the whole weekend.  I really prefer it to Oblivion.  I'd definitely like to see a graphics upgrade, but honestly it's not *THAT BAD*.  It's not as pristine and shiny as Oblivion, but after just a couple of hours in Morrowind I'm already far more interested in it than I have ever been in Oblivion (which I never finished either).

--

disclaimer: I did try to finish Oblivion, when I first got it, without any mods.  The trouble is I had gone off on side paths and frankly when I got back around to doing the main line the mobs had gotten so incredibly hard by about the fourth quest that it was simply impossible to go on for me.  I think the worst thing about Obliv. is the scaling of the environments.  I *want* to get radically overpowered.

Well, that and the psychic guards really turned me off.

hmmm, that wasn't my experience at least as far as the game becoming too hard.

However, there are mods you can use to alter how powerful your opponents will get. I use Francesco's over Oscuro's because I just hate how much Oscuro's adds and changes.

I also use a combat mod that makes the enemy ai better. Because of it I had some very long fights in Shivering Isles which I really liked.

I also have a mod that gets rid of the psychic guards. It's a shame because it's either one or the other. Meaning that the mod will make it so that if a guard doesn't see you then that's it you can go where you want. But it's unfortunate because you never have that surprise of "being discovered".

I'd rather wait for the new Elder Scrolls MMO Bethesda is working on. :)
