Morrowind trumps both of em if story is what you're looking for.

I'm never really into games that much for the story. My main concern is gameplay(including what can be done with mods), then I worry about graphics, and story is something I consider on the side.

I don't frikin' want fallout >_<  

Well if you're not concerned about story and only gameplay, Skyrim is the route you should take.  

Skyrim
-Better graphics
-More Quests
-Awesome music
-Better graphics
-You can do whatever you want
-Generally better

1. Probably not the best thing with my computer, even medium graphics settings can cause some stuttering

2. Meh

3. I don't care the slightest bit

4. Did you do that intentionally or...

5. That applies to Oblivion, too .-.

6. My opinion contradicts with that so far


I've actually already decided on Oblivion, now I just need the Steam credit to buy it.  

So if you already decided, why make a thread on it? I mean, either way, they're both good games. If you end up liking Oblivion, Skyrim is also worth trying out.

When did I say I decided before I made the thread? I made the thread because every time I compared the games, they were neck-and-neck. But I was starting to consider Oblivion as the better one for me before hand.  

hm

this thread has convinced me to get oblivion and fallout  

Bingo!

Agreed.

Morrowind trumps both of em if story is what you're looking for. If it's only Oblivion VS Skyrim it depends.

Skyrim has nicer graphics but the storyline isn't the best and the ending sucked. Oblivion is more fall of the empire and stuff.

It's not even the storyline that makes it so good. The world is just so much more interesting and rich. Plus with the Morrowind Overhaul the game looks way better. Because lets be real the Elder Scrolls games have **** combat and their strength comes from the world and exploration as well as its lore. Not some main story quest.  

Oblivion is so funny xD
Skyrim is really good too!  

Got Skyrim last week, finished the main quest in 1-2 days. I really like the amount of quests and stuff. I've never played Oblivion, but it looks like a great game.
