Seriously I wanna know cause so far Skyrim has ruined me for other games. I've been hopelessly addicted to it for months now, over 400 hours,  and I can't enjoy other games cause im just wishing they were Skyrim. I tried Oblivion...too clunky, hasn't aged very well. And Morrowind? Never played it but I'll never be convinced that a game from FOURTEEN years ago is better than Skyrim. No way. Maybe if you played it first when it came out and grew an attachment to it, but for someone like me who played Skyrim first I don't think I will be able to appreciate it or oblivion the same way. So please tell me what to play after living in Skyrim for months. Oblivion is better than Skyrim, in many ways. A) It has spell creation. B) It's a RPG where you have to make choices and stick with them. C) You have to actually decide what your character will be. D) You actually pick your birthsigns. If you think Morrowind isn't going to have a chance simply because of it's age, it shows that you do not wish to attempt to give it a chance. Valid point but let me ask you this, did you play Skyrim first or did you play morrowind then oblivion then Skyrim? I'm pretty sure that's the difference right there. If i had the chance to play those games when they came out im sure my opinion would be different, but for me its too hard to go backwards. They may be better in some aspects but  I can't get passed the poor graphics and clunky movement in oblivion. I'm sure morrowind is amazing but I just can't see myself getting into a game from 2002. Not trying to offend any morrowind or oblivion fans just hoping to find a game that gives me a fraction of the satisfaction that Skyrim does. Guess I'll just wait for Skyrim remastered. And if morrowind and oblivion are truly that amazing even today then I guess I'll just have to give them a try. But what I've gathered so far is that the only games that are possibly better than Skyrim are the other elder scrolls games. Is there anything not made by Bethesda that's better than Skyrim? Dragon Age Origins, one of the best RPG's ever created. Came out in 2010. If you haven't already, I'd recommend giving that a try, and seeing how you like it compared to Skyrim. Dragon Age: Origins Honestly, I find Skyrim's main plot bland.

I definitely agree, I prefer Dragon Age games to Skyrim. You have multiple choices to create your characters (I'm not talking about the editor, I'm talking about doing a background other characters will be aware of and behaviour), romances, I find the main plots more interesting and you can influence it. On many levels it's like doing roleplay around a table. Other than that, I like to play a game completely which means doing all the quests. Dragon Age Inquisition for exemple is semi open wolrd but despite that, you can see the end of it. I don't in Skyrim, I have to create another character because I'm bored.

You also have Mass Effect games, same company but a single character during 3 games (you can change your class and face between). You have similarities : decisions, creating your character, influence on your companions destinies, romance ... let's say it's Dragon Age in space for the idea.

But you know, there are other great RPG outside, and other great games other than RPG.
