But the Oblivion map is bigger than Skryrm and has areas in the style of most of the provinces. From what I've seen of Cyrodiil in Oblivion, I don't understand how you can say Skyrim has more varied terrain unless you mean the shapes of cliffs and mountains. Then again I've haven't really explored South of the Imperial City and it looks pretty empty in that direction.

From what I've seen so far I prefer the combat and quests in Skyrim, although the Arena is notable by its absence. I prefer the levelling in Skyrim, although the ideal game would be somewhere between them. Oblivion has a better range of spells but Skyrim has shouts to complement them, so I'll reserve judgement on that. I prefer the quest journal in Skyrim for its ease of use, particularly if you have a lot of active quests. Morrowind is pretty unwieldy in that respect, and I never liked the dice-roll combat.
