Greatest WRPG series of all time? Or greatest RPG series of all time?
>>
anyone?

>>331326992
Neither.

It could have been, but Skyrim was just half-assed and boring. Given how Fallout 4 turned out, the next Elder Scrolls will be even more half-assed, glitchy and boring.

NO??

Are you kidding me? TES's quality is all over the place.

Nah, FO4 was just focused in different areas.

Oblivion was worse

>no skills
>worst gore effects of the series
>90% of the game are fetch quests
>enemy variety even worse than most FPS
>skyrim's tedious 'unlimited quests'
>no character development/forgettable NPCs
>strayed from its roots to become more commercialised
>glitchy as fuck on release
>bethesda still expect the fanbase to fix their shitty games because they felt as if they 'done enough'

I wish I shared your inability to detect shit, maybe I'd be happier.

Fallout 3 is the greatest game.

What game is honestly better, please write it with a straight face

>>331331184
New Vegas is better, but only with the DLC.

>>331326992
Oh fuck off nothing Bethesda makes is the "best"

That's not Wizardry.

you start

I grew up with Baldur's Gate and Myth. I don't know the first thing about Elder Scrolls (other than people telling me that I should start in release order) and I know even less about how well the series has progressed into the mainstream market.

It's a plugin platform. There is nothing to do in the game itself. Everything is bland, boring and generic, maybe save for visuals (but they get old too). No challenge, no writing, no interesting gameplay mechanics, no quality combat, no quest variety, no itemisation, like what the fuck I'm even supposed to do in this game, walk around and jerk off to snow mountains? Looks like devs don't even know themselves.
it's a step up from oblivion but it's still shit. All they care about is getting the crowd and they do because of brand, PR and sheer amount of money poured into this shitheap. I wish they'd stop making 100 km^2 wastes and start actually making games, they did it a couple of times and it turned alright.

The only good game Bethesda ever made was Morrowind. DF, too, if it weren't so goddamn buggy or had such godawful level design.
>>
Arcanum
Gothic 2
System Shock 2

cant really think of anything else
>>
>>331328832
>Skyrim
Every game since Daggerfall has been a disappointment.

>Morrowind
>threw out random generation, shrunk the world, got rid of wear-states, simplified half of character building into constellations, scrapped skills and spells that aren't totally basic

>Oblivion
>threw out lore for the province, made everything bland, adjusted levels of enemies to make all combat equal, added fast travel because the world was so bland as to need it, and utterly gutted factions into four linear quest chains

>Skyrim
>took out spell crafting, simplified character creation a bit more, simplified dungeon design

Honestly Skyrim is the least worst.

But that's the best thing about it. You have a perfectly generic game that can be modded as much as you want and turned into something you actually enjoy
Just install the porn mods and it's a 10/10, one of the few video games i still bother playing t.bh

>>331331423
What's so good about the DLC? It costs twice what the base game does now.
>>
>>331335014
it's just a continuous downward spiral

>weapons track to your movements but do exactly the same damage regardless of how and where they hit
>set in High Rock because it's the most generic of the provinces we haven't been to lately
>but all those VR sex mods

Ignoring the fact that the gameplay is fucking terrible, automatically removing it from this list, are you retarded?

Skyrim added smithing and really buffed up the housing system though. And making things like fish and butterflies collectable the way that plants have been is also a great change. And the combat, while not exactly good, has been gradually improving.
