They sacrificed amazing story for amazing graphics. Every quest in Oblivion was meaningful. In Skyrim? Can you bring this [item] to [person]. That's all you pretty well do. Alduin doesn't have the quality of an antagonist Mankar Camoran or Mehrunes Dagon did. I was able to play Oblivion for 4 years before saying I couldn't do it anymore. Now for Skyrim I have to wait for the DLC's to come out before I can go back to playing. Haven't played since a week after Dawnguard came out and probably won't until the new DLC. In Oblivion, the imagination couldn't end. Plus The Companions were a joke, the College of Winterhold and Thieves Guild was meh while I did see an improvement in the Dark Brotherhood the quality of the main quest lacked. No characters in the game are as meaningful as Jauffre, Baurus or even Martin for that matter. Ultimately, for me, it was the utter "feel" that Oblivion had that just made me love it.
