Fallout 3, Skyrim is an excellent game, and definitely has more content that FO3, but it just isn't as emotive. I find myself not caring as much what happens in Skyrim compared to FO3. There also seems to be a lot more hidden little gems of story in the game, as opposed to reading books. I'd rather read a note from a man to his wife written as the bombs were falling than a book about a wizard in the first era. Fallout feels much closer to home and draws me in so much more, it affects me as it could be real, whereas Skyrim, however good, is always going to be pure fantasy.
