In Skyrim you had Whiterun which was tiny compared to the Imperial City, but aside from Windhelm and maybe Riften none of the others were worth visiting for more than quest reasons - hell the port town in the North didn't even have a damn general store to sell anything to.įinally the quests - particularly guild ones - were just outright better, nothing in Skyrim came anywhere near Whodunit? from Oblivion.Įdit: Ok fine, another thing, Skyrim's soundtrack was decent but Oblivion's was incredible and one I still regularly listen to. I also felt that the towns in Skyrim were pretty much worthless, Cyrodill had a far larger main city yet every other town still had multiple reasons to visit. Skyrim, yes, is meant to be colder climate than Cyrodill, but it was just so damn brown and didn't feel cold or bleak, I ended up having to use a mod that drastically increases the amount of snow in the world because I was so tired of looking at it. Cyrodill had lush forests, snowy mountains, the Oblivion gates, marshland and a huge main city - I wanted to explore the world because it was beautiful. For me Skyrim's aesthetics were dull and unappealing, and there was a complete lack of diversity in the world and characters.
