Well it is indeed clear you haven't played Oblivion, because by your above standards it's all green lol. Still pretty much one color. Also, MW has more color diversity than you are giving it credit for. Not even sure which version of Skyrim you were playing either for that matter. There are green "temperate" zones like most of the Rift, Falkreath, and southern Haafingar. The Reach is also largely temperate but comprised mostly of crags and gullies. The you have the rolling plains of Whiterun, and the frozen tundras of the northern holds. There are browns, grays, greens, and whites to name a few "background" colors, but there are myriad flowers of many colors. Blue/purple/red mountian flowers, Dragons Tongue, Deathbell, etc. How about the many colored butterflies flying about? The torchbugs at night? Then there are indoor places like the one you mentioned...Blackreach. That's A LOT more than one color lol. I just think you need to open your eyes and pay attention. You're looking at the canvass, but not what's painted on it.

Also, Skyrim is better than Oblivion because there's nothing to do in Oblivion, compared to MW and Skyrim anyway, besides close Oblivion gates. Since you'll close ~10 of those in the course of the main questline anyway, that can get old fast. It's a poor substitute for more quests to do imo. If you don't believe that just look on this very wiki. Look at the list of quests for each game, and you'll see Oblivion has WAY less than MW or Skyrim. That's not even counting DLC.
