Random ask of the day, opinion on the Elders Scrolls games? My favorite is Oblivion

Somewhat embarrassing but the only game for Elder Scrolls that I've ever played is Skyrim unless you count the entire 30 minutes I tried to get into Morrowins.

Second embarrassing thing to admit is that I spent over 100 hours wandering around in Skyrim and advanced approximately 0 of the plot. I am not kidding. I was spared getting my head chopped off and immediately started walking in the opposite direction of where it told me to go and then just. Did not go there. Instead I went giant-hunting and dungeon-diving and spent quite a lot of time getting chased around by elementals and werewolves.

Don't get me wrong I really enjoyed the game and had fun playing my Big Kitty despite the hordes of people telling me they'd turn me into a rug. Just. I don't know anything about the plot because I very solidly did not do the plot and instead did literally everything else. For about 100 hours before I went "wow that was fun" and then never touched it again.

#this is how Skyrim is meant to be played #Skyrim is like Deadpool but everyone thinks this is Wolverine #like the Thomas the train engine mod unironically works #because of course it does #a lot of the plot is under developed and poorly executed #it is a massive skeleton of what could or should have been but it just wasn’t #it was gearing up to have son #*some interesting takes about the political divide happening at the time #lots of loose ends mods can’t or won’t fix #idk #also I wouldn’t feel bad about morrowind #it requires an arm and a leg to get started and it’s very easy to screw yourselves over early on #i would recommend oblivion #it’s mostly modern but Skyrim has more quality of life stuff #be aware though that Skyrim is simple because people complained about issues and the mechanics just got stripped down or removed altogether #leveling in the older games is less important than how/what you are leveling #and most of the mechanics have a wierd twist #but it’s fun #I would just recommend going in with mechanics knowledge
